Hmm usually dogs move somewhere cozier when their joints start to hurt but idk Hasans dog breed or her personal quirks. My brothers Great Pyr rocks a floor nap when she’s too hot and she’s fine. But could be an issue for an older dog, the Pyr is only 5 so joint pain not an issue at that age.

need a minneapolis mayoral candidate to ride the slow nicollet mall buses and talk about how we can improve their speed in ways the city hasn't tried yet. need a minneapolis mayoral candidate to ride transit in general and talk to transit riders!

I'm on the slowest bus line in the city with the slowest buses in the nation to talk to New Yorkers about what it would mean for their lives if we made them fast and free.

I like Hasan but I’ve lived with several dogs and dog owners over the years and afaik it’s just like kinda normal dog behavior to mosey around the house and do their little patrols in between chillin on the couch or whatever.

I don’t think there’s nearly enough evidence to say he’s using a shock collar here that’s a stretch. But I’m confused what the dog was doing wrong in the first place, it looked like she was just getting up to walk around?Training a dog to sit still in one spot all day is weird to me idk

Can we not like…increase property taxes for any individual or entity to scale with the # of residential properties they own? Even if electeds are too scared to ban this behavior, I feel like there are still things we can do to make housing less of a slam dunk investment opportunity

Brian Goldstone @brian-goldstone.bsky.social · 1d

There are now two Americas when it comes to housing:

In one, people work multiple jobs and still can't afford a home.

In the other, housing isn't a place to live but a portfolio to grow.

I do really think that, if you lie to the public as an officer of the law or officer or the court or with any authority on their behalf you should be criminally charged

Cops misled journalists about using a powerful surveillance tool to track a woman across state lines because she had an abortion, then tried to cover it up when we found out the truth. Huge story from @jasonkoebler.bsky.social and @josephcox.bsky.social this morning: www.404media.co/police-said-...

Police Said They Surveilled Woman Who Had an Abortion for Her 'Safety.' Court Records Show They Considered Charging Her With a Crime

Court records show that the narrative Flock and a Texas Sheriff's Office has told the public isn't the whole story, and that police were conducting a 'death investigation' into the abortion.

What is going on at Crunchyroll lmao. This + Spy X Family not listed on simulcast page. I didn’t even realize the new season was out until running to Reddit to see what the heck was going on with the captions. Did their whole dev team quit or something?

Some kind of testing page for Crunchyroll clearly meant just for staging. All the images are placeholders and the series/episode titles are strings of letters and numbers.

eventually politicians need to start advocating for criminal and civil penalties for people involved in fabricating stories to get citizens incarcerated.

or, put another way: a society that would like to keep functioning has to discourage baldfaced lying, especially by authorities

On the other hand, Mary Moriarty has one hell of a backbone, not only for attending this event but also for telling this story despite potential career consequences. That’s the type of behavior that deserves the power of elected office and the type of moral decision making we deserve as citizens.

My stomach is in knots about this really selfish decision by @ag.state.mn.us and @governorwalz.mn.gov. Your own careers over a kid’s future. Complete disregard for justice and mercy bc you weren’t brave enough to make the moral choice. Just sick, man.

mary moriarty speaks of frustration with media and copaganda, tells story for the first time about a case involving a 15 year old boy that was taken away from her and given to attorney general keith ellison by gov tim walz. walz said “this is starting to look like chauvin, it’s going to be on CNN”

Think this might have been more of an actual question than a rhetorical one

jacked hunk @jackedhunk.bsky.social · 2d

Yeah seems like she’s putting blame on Walz and Ellison going out of their way to ensure a harsher punishment for a minor to boost their own reputations of being “tough on crime”, even though the kid had been manipulated. I didn’t really hear anything that sounded like she’s blaming dem voters.

Alissa Walker @awalkerinla.bsky.social · 2d

Reflections on last week's #WeekWithoutDriving in a city that still refuses to acknowledge the existence of its nondrivers — which a comprehensive new report claims make up one-third of LA's population

One-third of Angelenos do not drive

Walking back the "car-free" games promise is unconscionable in a city where the people who don't drive are also the most vulnerable users of our streets

Shared use paths (bikes & peds sharing space w/o separation) are great for low density & low traffic areas.

Lyndale Ave S is neither of those.

It would be a HUGE mistake to put a shared use path here.

For safety & accessibility we need bus lanes, wide sidewalks & protected bikelanes.

The fact they jumped straight to AI actors modeled after women when, if I’m not mistaken, male actors are a higher labor cost kind of says it all doesn’t it,

Dr. Damien P. Williams Wants A Better Sociotechnical Paradigm @wolvendamien.bsky.social · 4d

Like… it's kind of right there, no?

"AI" generated image of woman with dark hair sitting in a chair in front of posters with random shapes and symbols meant to look like images and text on movie posters, all superimposed with a post from k.w.bogen reading
"AI actresses can't negotiate. They can't say they'd prefer their bodies not be shown certgain ways. They can't refuse degrading scenes. They can't express distress about disturbing content. They can't ask the creators :why would you do that to me? Why put any woman through watching that? If AI film winds up being the path, we're about to see an entirely new generation (and more brutal depiction) of media misogyny."

I’m lucky to have been taught some critical thinking, and thank god for that. And I don’t use AI just because I don’t want to. But I think the bullying isn’t directed in the right place here. Reserve for the hateful and powerful otherwise why are you engaging?
