Putting a ton of housing—including many affordable units—on top of a grocery store in a transit rich corridor is exactly what we should be doing and if NIMBYs hadn’t been so recalcitrant over the years they would have more bargaining power now but oh well www.sfchronicle.com/realestate/a...
Controversial S.F. Safeway housing project one step closer to approval as key labor unions sign on

WOW. @haleaziz.bsky.social with a new scoop: ICE now gets a running list of every person who is going to be taking a domestic flight inside the United States from the TSA and runs it through their database looking for targets. This explains the Babson College student's arrest.

My wife has been HIV+ for 34 years. She’s alive today b/c work of activists who destigmatized the virus, pushed medical science to adapt & find ways to treat it, & advocated for gov health programs that helped fund her care. The current U.S. regime may want to go back in time, but we won’t let them.

I gotta give it up to the writers tho. If NYC elects a Muslim mayor on the day Dick Cheney died, that is one hell of a slow played story arc. Every time you want to fire 2025's writers room they give you a little narrative resolution as a treat.

At some point, incompetence and deliberate indifference to the law reaches a point where it is indistinguishable from deliberate misconduct. This is why you don’t hand a complex matter to someone who has never presented to a grand jury before.
A federal judge ORDERS the disclosure of James Comey's grand jury minutes to the defense, citing a "disturbing pattern pattern of profound investigative missteps" and casting doubt on Lindsey Halligan's declaration about the gap in the record.

This table topped with coffee beans was in the green room at MSNBC for at least 15 years, back to when Morning Joe was sponsored by Starbucks. The beans were fuzzy in places and had lost their smell.
Today was MSNBC’s last day at 30 Rock, and I guess the beans aren’t making the move.
