People ask what they can do in this moment: here's a crucially important election. There are 52,000 elections taking place next month, many of which will be determined by turnout.

Dispatch from Pennsylvania on a highly unusual state Supreme Court election—one of the few most consequential matters on the ballot anywhere in the country next month. New from me in @boltsmag.org: boltsmag.org/pennsylvania...

Inside the Clunky Elections to Control Pennsylvania's Supreme Court - Bolts

The GOP is making an expensive push to end Democrats’ majority on a court at the center of election lawsuits, sparking a fledging campaign season with little precedent or template.

Fuck Jeff Bezos, books don't need him.

Cities are developing a new approach to developing housing: Integrating it into mixed-use library projects. These investments improve neighborhood vitality, add housing & improve services.

In new research @urbaninstitute.bsky.social, I create a database of such projects & point to success stories ⏬

Aging Libraries Could Offer Cities a Unique Opportunity to Build New Housing While Improving Public Services

Since 2000, more than 1,800 apartment units have been built in combined library-housing developments. These projects not only address local housing needs but…

So we really don't like to build our name off of someone else's dipshittery

but five months after this post
(which was not the first SM fuckery)

almost EVERY new sticker client mentions wanting to get away from Sticker Mule

So thanks, I guess, weird Sticker Mule guy.

We quality checked THREE THOUSAND stickers by hand this morning

I've had actually conversations with every single person who has ever ordered stickers from us.

We care about the quality of clients receive, not how cheap we can make them.

But go off about your robots, Donkey Show 💀

I think mostly it just feels good. I'm kinda bad at it, tbh, but we all deserve hobbies that we don't feel pressure to be good at. And sometimes I get to eat a cucumber.

California has now banned algorithmic price fixing.

The state has outlawed the practice of landlords colluding to raise prices using rental software and AI.

This is a huge victory for renters in the biggest state in the country.

Listen, we're tired of comparing everything to Hitler too. Unfortunately people today have a Perry the Platypus understanding of history. When they see shit happening they think "Ah a normal government policy" until you put a little mustache and swastika on it and they go "A Nazi government policy!"

The Talmud has a straightforward answer as to why we should do good deeds. To get into heaven? No. Rather, the reward for the mitzvah is the mitzvah.

all discourse aside, there is one machine with consciousness. it's printers. they are alive and conscious and they hate you and they'd take your arm clean off if you let them. never trust a printer.
