The message is that cars are inherently dangerous.

Self driving cars will, imo, probably turn out to be a partial mitigation, and it's shameful to see so many attack self driving rather than the routine violence of everyday cars.

Both cats are curled under the blanket cuddling with me. They knew today was exhausting clearly

You see people promoting their positions “as a third generation New Yorkers” who would never say that their opinions are more valid because they're “third generation Americans.”

Even on big channels like SubwayTakes

I really dislike blood-and-soil-urbanism. The idea that, for example, you're more authentically a New Yorker if you've lived there longer or if your grandparents & parents lived there.

“Anti-displacement” talk sits on the same moral level as deporting immigrants for “stealing jobs” for me.

This is a timely reminder to be nice to retail employees, even if you think you are too important to do that.

In the 2000s, I worked at a bookstore, but by the time this story takes place, I was mostly in the cafe. If things got busy, they'd pull me out to work on the other side of the store...

Thanks to a new law I wrote, California now has statewide standards enabling cities to build more homes near transit, protect renters, and provide affordable housing. I’ve spent my career taking on California's housing crisis. Now I’m ready to bring that fight to Washington.

You can’t say this then give crap to Biden about the autopen
talking to reporters last night, Trump claimed of Hegseth's double tap strike that "I don't know anything about it," then moments later claimed "I don't who you're talking about" when asked his plan to pardon the former Honduran president

I'm really glad to see someone like Kelly finally saying this. bsky.app/profile/atru...
Mark Kelly: "This president, when he says things like 'third world countries,' what is he really saying? I think what he's saying is he doesn't want brown people in our country. And that's disturbing. It's un-American."

How long before YIMBY zealots say if you don’t want the military deployed in your city you are a NIMBY?

I successfully spent the majority of a BART ride not making eye contact with an acquaintance that I just didn’t want to exert small talk with. Polite nod the stop before his.
