Defense also says of the remaining verbs besides assault — impede and interfere — Sandwich Guy actually helped the officers do their duty, to the extent it was “high visibility” crime patrol and prevention. Indeed, they became *more* highly visible when officers arrested him in double digits.

If these rich assholes want to keep their covenant, the city should slap a "pay through the nose for single family home density downtown" area rate on downtown's mansion district.

I wish there was a way to convey how much of a big deal this is to me, I wish you could feel it.

Fun with headlines. How many people are going to click in and realise that the single-detached-house investors they want to be mad at are their parents?

When Wales lowered its default speed limit from 30 mph to 20, it created a perfect natural experiment. England, a nearby jurisdiction did not.

👀 You can see road deaths declined by 25% in Wales after the policy was implemented. Via @20splenty.bsky.social www.20splenty.org/gb2024stats

🚨🚨🚨⬇️⬇️⬇️ Tell Newsom to sign SB79, to allow housing along transit.

Literally took me 10 seconds.

If you don't like telephones, you can leave a digital comment in the link below.

Active Bill -> SB79 -> Please sign SB79.

#sandiego #safestreets #bikesky
Reminder that @governor.ca.gov is reportedly considering vetoing SB79, the best housing bill to clear the CA legislature in decades.

It would be a *disaster*, substantively & for Newsom's political future. Really hope he doesn't self-immolate.

Tell him!

You can contact the Governor a few different ways. The best way is through his online form.

TRIVIA CONTEST!

In 2025, one of these two houses had a $3,244 property tax bill, while the other had a $19,025 property tax bill.

Which house had which one?
Let's be real.

Would you rather have the house in Hartford below?

Or would you rather have the illustration of a house in Cupertino below?

Last night's declaration of a $100k fee on H-1B visas has been hugely disruptive to many Asian American families. Even with the update that it doesn't apply to current H-1B visa holders, it remains an attack on many already living in the US and had been counting on getting one to remain. 1/

Mainstream pundits have instantly sanitized and ignored Charlie Kirk's core political project and its impacts. He has been remembered by the mainstream press as someone they merely disagreed with, a debate me-guy whose words and actions had zero consequences:
