I love science.

this just in.

We're implementing the largest expansion of Sammy’s Law in city history: lowering speed limits to 15 MPH at all eligible school locations by the end of our first term. And we’re not waiting to start. In 2026, we’re reducing 800 locations to 15 MPH, for a total of nearly 1,300 School Slow Zones.

Oh how I wish this wasn’t satire. 💙

It's just incredible that Trump is arresting reporters and having his FCC chair threaten to pull broadcast licenses of networks that do not report positively about Trump, and the WH Correspondents Association is going to throw a big celebration with him. It's absurdist satire too silly for a movie.

Incredible how little I care

A woman informed me (while I was tabling for a local urbanism group) that she would "never vote for sidewalks again" because trees had been removed the last time sidewalks were put in near her. She walked away and came back to shake her finger at me and insist "SIDEWALKS DON'T WORK." They do.

A modern classic.

At least 175 people, mostly children, died in the Feb. 28 missile strike, Iranian officials have said.

Struggling to keep reproducing my own shock at what is being done to Iran and Lebanon. As a burden, that is trivial, of course. I do feel the shock, & read: with resentment that we are far down paths of destruction that would have seemed counterfactual & now are not.

AI is not magic. It's human labor. The opening anecdote in this story made my jaw fall on the floor. www.404media.co/ai-is-africa...

It's bizarre and unsettling that the article treats this like a great idea. Pay employees in money, please. It's not that complicated.

War crimes!

I had a similar moment with my ebike - it has been such a wonderful mobility aid and tool for getting "back on the horse" (bike 😜)

Guys, this is Senator @chrismurphyct.bsky.social. You need to read it all. He's CONFIRMING what many of us already suspected about this war. I can tell you Trump is 100% lying trying to make out like the US is wrapping it up.

This administration is committing Watergate level crimes multiple times per week—and those are the ones we know about. It’s crazy to think about what else will come out after. It’s absolutely essential these criminals are held responsible for their crimes. We must end elite impunity.

Elizabeth Warren: “For the Trump administration to say over & over, there's no money for healthcare – there's no money for childcare – there's no time to pay attention to how families are paying more – but there's a billion dollars a day to go to the Middle East & drop bombs on Iran”

I cannot emphasize this enough.

Most accurate portrait of modern culture currently available

How do you even begin to recover from a disaster like this? How do you clean up even after the acute phase is over? This is horrific.

Mainstream America: We are obsessed with Heated Rivalry and Drag Race. We love them and can't get enough. American Democrat politicians: LGBT people are not culturally normal. We will not speak of them.

If you’re roughly my age, it’s wild to reflect on the optimism for the future Americans felt when Obama was elected — young Americans spontaneously took to the streets to celebrate! — and contrast with what we face today. The falloff over the past 18 years is hard to process.

Secretary Noem is either completely incompetent or violating our rights with impunity, she should be removed from office.

Thom Tillis absolutely sucks, but someone has to do it, and i don't care who it is.

"Massive operation" == War Crimes

The juxtaposition:

Gonna ask my MAGA acquaintances this...

The American people deserve an explanation before Trump sends their sons and daughters to fight overseas. Instead, we’ve gotten changing stories from a President who doesn’t even seem focused on the war he just started.

Exactly 💯

Seriously. Makes me feel like I'm living in crazy town that all the main news stories are just like "the war blah blah blah" Did y'all mean the illegal and un-sanctioned attacks? Is that what y'all meant?

Yet another broken promise from President Trump.

had a death in the family and was almost completely off the internet for a few days & my observation is that there is too much happening too fast such that basic facts abt the world are difficult to ascertain unless you are mainlining info all the time & doing that seems to drive people insane

Hit the gas - i mean electricity - pedal on that argument!

This is one of the many reasons I'm making the videos I'm making on engine management technology. Everything's computer? Always has been.

We're all horrified, right?? ... right?

America was at peace until Trump ruined that too.

My statement on President Trump’s combat operations in Iran⬇️

Trump has launched an illegal regime change war. As someone who has survived the horrors of war, I know military strikes will not make us safer; they will inflame tensions and push the region further into chaos. When we abandon diplomacy, we choose destruction.

Newsflash. He doesn’t.

I can't fucking believe we're doing this again.

Hey Congress!! United States Constitution (Article I, Section 8)Congress holds the exclusive power to formally declare war, authorize the use of military force, and raise/support the armed forces. How does it feel to be nuetered? What are you doing? SERIOUSLY! WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING????
