DSA SF stands in solidarity with our sister and comrade, Jackie Fielder, as she takes the time she needs to focus on her health. Jackie has been tirelessly fighting for the working class in her district, our city, and beyond, and now our movement stands beside her.

The one decent person on council is resigning and the gremlins at the standard and chron can’t help themselves but salivate at this “opportunity” for the mayor

JUST IN: San Francisco Supervisor Jackie Fielder says she is resigning. Fielder was in the hospital Friday. Her office said she was undergoing an "acute personal health crisis." missionlocal.org/2026/03/sf-j...

richest city in the richest region(also the supposed tech capitol of the world where google literally came out of ) in the richest state in the richest country in the world and our electrical grid sucks and we dont have municipal fiber or broadband unserious country

I swear that this is all tied to people in the mid to late 1900s becoming obsessed with the idea we were heading toward overpopulation

I have a joke about carbon offsets but someone else is going to have to tell it to you and a third person is going to have to verify if it is funny while a fourth person argues that the second person was already going to tell the joke anyway

i hope so too but there is no more obvious "lucy and the football" thing than people believing ezra klein is a smol bean who just needs to Learn A Little. the obvious explanation is he's a reactionary centrist piece of shit and doesn't need to learn anything

Republicans, when talking about war and absolutely nothing else.

The new Pokémon game is surprisingly and refreshingly political. The whole premise is about creating walkable, accessible, sustainable, and free homes for Pokémon in the wake of climate change. Also every resident goes by they/them!

The only time I allow shoes to stay on is if you are helping me move lots of shit. Otherwise if you need to keep your shoes on you can stay on the porch :)

I love lithium batteries as much as the next person but if you are using the illegal bombing of Iran to promote EVs you are depraved.

I really hate anti-trans politicians, and I especially hate it because it was a culture war issue where we were clearly winning and then a bunch of nominally liberal people at the Times and the Atlantic decided to reverse that and they did.

So the guy who’s opposed to fighting utility monopolies, universal healthcare, and social housing wants us to believe we need to abandon “identity politics” in the name of affordability? Seems like he just wants us to own nothing and like it lmao

The Okhrana having impacts that extend this far past the Tsar's fall makes me really worried about other psyops that happened more recently.

I wish someone made good municipal socialist/realistic ecosocialist youtube content but it can't be me because the idea of writing a script fills me with so much dread I would rather stew in my own thoughts.

I personally am quite fond of how advanced air purifiers, solar panels, e-bikes, grid scale battery storage, and vaccines have gotten over my lifetime

When I said fully automated luxury gay space communism I assumed we’d build that stuff under socialism. Not just expropriate it from Nvidia and SpaceX, but hey if that works it works!

This is a 100% elite manufactured craze.

It truly was insane to have lived through Gamer Gate and thinking "well I am glad me and my friends didn't get duped by that!" Only to see the whole country fall hook line and sinker for the same rhetoric applied to politics.

This is really succinct. Fuck Gavin Newsom. He's a loser. I can tell you right now for certain that I'm not going to vote for him in the 2028 general election BECAUSE HE'S NOT GOING TO BE THE FUCKING NOMINEE.

Southaven, Miss., is a diverse suburb of Memphis with higher than average levels of air pollution, was selected by XAI because the state will do nothing to protect the community. This would be one of the largest fossil power plants in MI & one of the largest data center complexes in the world.

New in our SF Strike Newsletter: —We hear from pro-strike parents, murmurs about negotiation details —The NY Post's sad attempted strike take-down —SFUSD bosses post a $300K/Yr admin job w/ job description that reads: "bring your whole selves to work" bayareacurrent.com/after-school...

Mamdani kind of proved you can go in, cancel everything your predecessor did, and move on fast enough that the media cycle can’t pick apart your policy positions. Any democrat taking power after this needs to have the conviction to say they won’t keep any policy of Trump’s on the books.

AOC running would probably be the best thing for DSA even if she loses the primary. Rejecting this because of AOC voted bad a handful of times will make people look like unprincipled fools.

My doomer-worry about AI is not that the LLMs become omnipotent and take over the world but that the wealthy and powerful use it as a means to consolidate power and marginalize or lay off skilled workers and also everything about our technological and political and social life gets worse

If you can't afford to pay monthly dues then pay annually. If you can't do that then get a dues waiver and commit to some canvasses and mutual aid projects. If you refuse to do any of that and instead sit online complaining about the left not winning I think you should reasses your choices.

Pointing out antisemitism on the left is one of the most annoying experiences one can have on Bluesky, not only do you get actual antisemites in your replies but also other leftists who are reflexively defensive and who bristle at the slightest critique.

this is such a wild fucking thing to post in *my* mentions of all places @munira.bsky.social And of course you turned off quotes and replies because you don’t want anyone to tell you how full of shit you are What about me made you think I’m not a life long pro-Palestine supporter

Do I miss eating indoors or sharing a joint now and then, yeah I do. But the health of myself, my loved ones, and my community is worth more than that. Happy to see more people publicly supporting wearing masks because COVID never went away.

starting to feel like there's a direct relationship between the growing obsession with lifestyle hygeine (no drinking, no caffeine, no sex, obsessive working out and looksmaxxing) and the inability to meaningful moral stands on issues of actual import

This kind of smart, walkable, mixed-use urbanism is illegal to build in most American cities.

stephen miller told me woke 2 keeps eating his prosecutors so I asked how many prosecutors he has and he said he just goes to twitter and begs people to apply to become federal prosecutors so I said it sounds like he’s just feeding prosectors to woke 2 and then kristi noem started crying

Opposition to ICE funding AND redirecting the funds towards healthcare is the kind of strategy Dems should be adopting if they hope to win back power.

Absolutely despise how many big urbanist accounts here are entirely comfortable using trash AI illustrations for things and will even put them in blogposts and reports.

No amount of training a fascist paramilitary makes it anything other than a vehicle for violence against the public. They don’t need sensitivity training what they need is long sentences at the second Nuremberg trials.

Guys, we did it. We invented the Commodore 64

sorry folks but you can only achieve the hidden good ending if you refuse the mission in the first place. now that the gameplay has started the final options are only bad ones.

Saying "what happened to America first" is stupid for two reasons. First, it is a nazi slogan about prioritizing White Americans and their sense of power over everyone else. Second, because violent imperialism to create vassals and colonies is totally in line with the first point!

As a Ukrainian, if you ever cared about Russia's fascist illegal, illegitimate and unjust invasion of Ukraine, you should absolutely care about US's fascist illegal, illegitimate and unjust invasion of Venezuela. My solidarity and best wishes to all Venezuelans.

"DATA CENTER WATER USE DOESN'T MATTER" is one of the silliest arguments I see floating around. unless you think re-writing 200 yr old water law (OG political third rail in the US) is a simple matter, the marginal consumption of new water is literally make or break for much of life in the western US

Thank you for sharing this! It’s critical to keep disability in mind when discussing transit justice and a climate conscious urban planning. Buses are not accessible for everyone in every scenario. We must build a world where multiple modes of transportation can exist equitably and sustainably.

they’re doing Verso Closet now???

NEW ESSAY: Read @rajpatel.org on the overlapping global crises of war, ecology and economy, and how frontline movements are confronting this moment.   transitionsecurity.org/polycrisis-a...

The future or driving is cars that go into the bay at top speed because avoiding it would be too hard!

Mission Local talks to AV "experts" who say it would be impractical for robotaxis to not be allowed in certain counties. They just can't figure out how to program them to stay out of a county, it's too hard 🙄 What nonsense. I stand with @jackiefielder.bsky.social's demand. Rest in power KitKat

There is somehow always money to make people starve but never money to feed them. Defund the police and send that money to people in need!

This is the logical endpoint of social democracy (and this case also of the whiteness of the U.S. left) by the way. What socdems ultimately want is a strong state + capitalist economy with some welfare/redistribution esp. for non-foreigners/non-immigrants

Has anyone looked into the consequences for grid stability and utility rates if these major data center expansions suddenly stop? Or worse if the whole industry bubble pops crashing demand overnight?

I wish people defended smeared victims of sexual violence the way they defend problematic male candidates for office
