They were still working on the Cortland bridge when I walked home at 5pm. Smelled like paint. North sidewalk remains open while the bridge is closed to vehicles. Cortland sidewalk is snowy/icy, unlikely to be maintained like the street itself (but that’s another story) #PlowTheSidewalks

I wrote about the Netflix CicLAvia buyout and how the Branding of Everything™ during LA's megaevent era has now become our reality — but it's less about the unavoidable commercialism that's already seeped into our major events, and more about who sets the standards that align with our values
The upside down
The spectacle that unfolded along four miles of Melrose on the Sunday before Thanksgiving was a portal into LA's age of activations

“Sidewalks are for People” is such a slam dunk of a name for a petition. How will the bots counter? www.cbsnews.com/chicago/news...
Hundreds of North Side residents sign petition to pause robot delivery pilot program in Chicago
Two companies, Serve Robotics and Cyan Robotics, are licensed in Chicago. The city said it's a pilot program that will assess benefits and risks.

For the eleventieth time, AI mostly just knows words and patterns, and doesn’t comprehend. Create a strategy with words? Ok. Execute that strategy? Not so much.

Read the whole thread and get mad at the media for rolling over.
It’s especially ironic because the lecture is exactly about the ‘paralyzing cowardice’ of today’s elites.

About universities, corporations and media networks bending the knee to authoritarianism. /4

I love reading historical reporting on slogans, mottoes, jingles and theme songs. This dates back to high school football for Ben Johnson, with football origins dating back to late 60s West Virginia, per this Athletic deep dive www.nytimes.com/athletic/681...

ICE has been raiding my neighborhood and surrounding ones for the last couple of weeks now. They commandeered my local church (against the pastor's will) for a staging site and raided supermarkets, parks, Goodwills, bus stops, you name it.

The national media's been silent. So has @mayor.lacity.gov.
Engagement on our updates re: ICE kidnappings/fed siege of Los Angeles is significantly lower on Bluesky compared to Twitter. Do ppl on here not care about LA anymore? Are feeds being taken over by liberal commentators? What's going on?

Community members on the ground can't do it all. We need help.
The feds are escalating in Los Angeles. We've seen record high kidnappings and our communities are under attack. The media focus on LA has died down so electeds don't feel the need to even feign opposition.

People are out here fighting. We need all of us. Join the struggle. Defend your neighbors.
