Mamdani may not have been my preferred candidate, but I am unambiguously excited to see him fight to make our streets safer for everyone.

Appointing @bfurnas.bsky.social to the transportation transition committee is such a good sign for things to come.

The skies cleared just in time for a beautiful remembrance of Melanie Winter’s life at Rio de Los Angeles State Park, a 247-acre public space she fought to create so Angelenos could have access to their river. A mosaic bench by artist Suzanne Siegel will be restored in Melanie’s honor

“Detainees who express thoughts of suicide are frequently put in solitary confinement, where the isolation, darkness and dirty conditions tend to worsen their mental states…”
