Nothing you can do in a car feels 1/10th as incredible as riding a bike at night.

What kind of stuff do you like? Will you have a car? The Japanese Garden is world class, PSU Farmer’s Market is one of the best in the country and a great place to grab lunch, plus there are tons of great hikes, and a wild array of great food.

This is just straight up holocaust shit

During a military-style raid on a building in Chicago’s South Shore, one resident heard a knock on his door.   It wasn’t the feds — it was a mom and her 7-year-old daughter, pleading for help.

He let them hide in his unit for the next 3 days.

A good example here is BDS! A lot of folks have decided it is morally wrong to consume goods from a genocidal apartheid state. Based on your formulation of "there is no ethical consumption under capitalism" they're ignorant liberals

Plum Daddy K @kieffercities.com · 2d

Nah this is a thing I have spent a really long time thinking about actually! I have gone back and forth on using Amazon a lot and ultimately agree – use it if you need to, no shame. But that doesn't mean there's no need to think about consumption.

Elect a Republican DA, get Republican policies. From www.nytimes.com/2025/10/10/u...?

Nathan Vasquez, the district attorney of Multnomah County, which includes parts of Portland, dropped the charges against Mr. Sortor but planned to take two left-wing demonstrators he scuffled with to trial. Mr. Vasquez said police did have probable cause to arrest Mr. Sortor.

The influencer was engaged in “what I think most people would consider antagonistic behavior,” Mr. Vasquez said. “The hard part is that obnoxious behavior doesn’t amount to you getting to punch him in the face.”

There is more and less ethical consumption, though!

It matters even if this is true because the asset loses value when it stops being scarce. More houses is good in any theory of the problem

Plum Daddy K @kieffercities.com · 2d

Both things are bad! If we build more homes then the capitalists wont own them and they’ll lose money when the value of their investment falls. Building is good!
