Starting to really hate dog owners. First they don’t have them on leashes in non-dog parks, let them run around in the street even with a leash on, and even don’t pick up their shit. You own a dog, you take care of it.

Hundreds of Starbucks baristas and labor organizers blockaded Starbucks' largest distribution center in York, Pennsylvania, halting distribution of syrups, coffee beans, and other supplies to the entire northeast.

Hey local KY folk, JCPS is going through it and having to make hard choices. This isn't one we should be making. Liberty does a great job with students going through rough times. It shouldn't have to close, especially a year after being forced into a new building.

Nothing is a better demonstration of the anti-scientific nature of banning trans women from sports than the fact that the IOC's OWN STUDY found no evidence trans women have any advantage over cis women in sports, but they're planning on going ahead with banning us anyways

The existence of school busses is a failure of public transportation. All cities should have enough normal busses, trains, and other transportation to allow students to get to school without specific busses.
"my least woke opinion is---"
That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.
Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

RE starbucks picket line--the relevant detail is "picket line, do not cross." Pass that along. Proclaiming that you are in no danger of doing so because you are too aesthetically pure to let Starbucks coffee pass your lips is...unhelpful and does not give the impression you perhaps imagine it does.

"Centrists" need to call Mamdani a "radical leftist" so they can say Trump/Farage fascism is just the opposing side of an equally matched "both sides" conflict
But Mamdani is just a middle of the road, European social democrat
And "centrists" - ie centre-right and right - are simply pro-fascism.
