Have you ever wondered _why_ whales get entangled in fishing lines so frequently?

Partly it's down to the lines themselves, of course. But partly, it's because of what the whales can--or more importantly--cannot see.

Just a reminder:

Seattle has until this Tuesday (Feb 11th) to turn in ballots that can both hit the wealthy where it hurts while also building the long term public-housing-for-all we've been waiting for.

Please vote Yes on 1A, please tell your Seattle friends- turnout is only 15% right now.
Seattle folk, can do something RIGHT NOW to channel your rage and fear and despair.

Ballots were sent in the mail today for Prop 1A:

A 5% tax on the compensation of millionaires, paid by their employer, to go straight to our Social Housing Developer.

Vote.
Tell your friends to Vote.
Volunteer.

Back when NHSTA SGO required ADAS crash reporting, Tesla reclassified and revised their self-reported Autopilot crash rates. The revisions don't make statistical sense, and I suspect Tesla is miscounting crashes to make Autopilot look safer.

Three days after it was revealed that this guy's license was wrongly listed as suspended due to a clerical error, none of the publications listed here (NYT, WP, NYP, USA Today, BBC, CNN, Fox, MSNBC) have issued corrections or updates.

The viral story about a defendant driving with a suspended license was fake news
Corey Harris' case should never have been a national news story to begin with.

Your regular reminder that the Heritage Foundation has a journalism fellowship that was funded by the Guardabassi family. Countess Guardabassi was a Palm Beach heiress who was one of the most generous benefactors of American fascists like Gerald LK Smith and Revilo Oliver in the Cold War era.
