"based on the best available data, the model reached a sobering estimate: The shift toward vehicles with higher hoods caused about 3,000 deaths from 2016 to 2024. The estimate is conservative in many ways." www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

antiwoke is standpoint epistemology for rapists

Look, I know the Edunomics people insist that every time you close a school you get an entire Scrooge McDuck swimming pool but it's not just Pew now, Stanford studied this too and found Edunomics's one slide study is perhaps extremely wrong www.edweek.org/leadership/c...

I'm reading Into the Wood Chipper and it seems like some of the folks who killed all our Ebola programs don't believe in Ebola I devoutly hope that Ebola gets the heartwarming chance to show them that it believes in them

Dietrich Bonhoeffer was an anti-fascist German Lutheran pastor who opposed Hitler and the Nazi Party so effectively that they murdered him in 1945. He is only a bad guy if you literally spend all your time on far-right, neo-Nazi websites and have pickled your brain in fascist group chats.

Elon Musk out here turning Twitter into Radio Rwanda

The Punisher sticker we've needed all along

my mayor muslim my bagel jewish he won't always be alive knicks in five

I am so sick of Big Tech bullshit. if you want to move fast and break things, start with your own bones

SFUSD folks question: what does your school do for school gear? My school does two tshirts a year that every kid gets free, with more stuff and adult sizes for sale/free to volunteers. Staff also gets 2 shirts and something else (a hoodie, cap, etc. every year)

Today on the Various Men In Dockers Discuss Progressive Politics Podcast, we identify the chief obstacles to the genuine reforms Graham Platner has proposed: bitches

Worth noting that "the burden of excessive pensions" here means "teachers and city workers receiving 2/3rds of their former income during retirement". Gen Z is greedy, teachers are greedy, but billionaires are just simple salt of the earth folks

nick bilton: be sure to put in the newspaper and on broadcast television and across every social media platform that I got mad and that you hurt my delicate feelings

Alexa, play “Mediocrity Rules” #CaliforniaPrimary

especially re: 2, one must ask, in what way is this court majority actually opposed to Plessy v. Ferguson?

if you just went by media coverage you would think that trangender kids playing sports are a much more immediate threat to the public well-being than a billionaire becoming a trillionaire by pumping $2 trillion worth of fraud into every single 401k

just remembered the time, back when I was on twitter, that I said 'originalism is astrology for people who feel bullied by the Civil Rights Movement' and a bunch of people into astrology were like 'how dare you' 😭

Saez and @gabrielzucman.bsky.social on the CA billionaire tax 250 households (0.001% of the state) holds wealth equal to more than half of California’s entire annual economic output Their wealth grows 15% a year and is taxed at just 0.26% per year www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

At this rate I'm going to make the 600lb club with a bench press under 100#

Today's Daily Cartoon for @newyorker.com by Kevin Maher and me.

On the tube

“Taxing me won’t help teachers,” says a man who has never lifted a finger to help teachers in his life.

Musk v Altman JUDGE: The jury has sent a question and the answer is no, the death penalty is not "available for both sides" please return to the jury room and limit your consideration to civil damages.

Squatting almost 1.75 times my bodyweight, which I think is pretty solid for someone whose age could be described as "owns most of @michaelehayden.bsky.social 's album picks on physical media"

People like Haidt, and by extension his fellow travelers at the Times and Atlantic, don't want freedom of speech, they want a right to monologue without criticism. It's effectively "how dare those little brats complain about being forced to listen to me at their graduation."

Fuck Amira. Tell your school your kid won't be using it. nymag.com/intelligence...

Happy birthday to John Brown, who knew exactly how to handle the south’s “Peculiar Institution”

Knowledge Fight was and remains one of the all-time great podcasts. It is the rarest kind of thing: a show that entertains while having a real-life impact. Dan and Jordan helped defang and neuter elements of a powerful propaganda network. Excited to see what both do next.

SFUSD folks, the district is attempting to force teachers to use Amira every day. Let your kids' teachers (and principals!) know you have their back when they refuse

The whitewashing of the civil rights movement & the state it countered is a huge part of how we got here. My latest: “Black organizers of the civil rights era didn’t organize against ‘racism.’ They organized to sabotage the laws and institutions of a white nationalist government.“

Prof. Derek Peterson, U of Michigan historian & MacArthur Genius Grant recipient, thanked “pro-Palestinian student activists” during a grad speech today, for “opening our hearts to the injustices and inhumanity of Israel’s war in Gaza.” His words, and the cheers that followed made my heart sing.

ok this is legit shocking!!! The person with the most traffic tickets in all of NYC turns out to be an NYPD officer from Staten Island. jk it’s not shocking at all lmao

Staten Island traffic cameras have caught a white RAM 1500 pickup truck blasting through school zones or running red lights more than 547 times since 2022. The truck belongs to James Giovansanti, who lives and works there as an NYPD officer. nyc.streetsblog.org/2026/04/23/t...

Jackie Robinson grew up in a diverse Pasadena neighborhood, & when one of those neighbors, his baseball teammate Shig Takayama, was incarcerated at Manzanar with his family, the Robinsons helped take care of their home. For my new column, a story of the worst & best of America through baseball. 🗃️

Man, when you compare the bravery of every day Minnesotans to the overpaid cops it’s astounding

Mamdani: If the NYC apartment you keep solely for bi-yearly affairs with your mistress costs over 5 million dollars, you gotta pay more tax NYPD officer who’s been on disability since 2006 because he stomped too hard on a lady during an arrest and fucked up his ankle: This is a travesty

If you cannot accept that the pope is the head of the church and knows more about faith than you’ve learned in your three years at Fascist Academy for Backwards Theology, then maybe converting to Catholicism is not the right move for you.

As of this morning, SFUSD is officially violating the terms of their latest contract with UESF. We need new management and that starts with electing Brandee Marckmann in June.

Staff Cuts to SFUSD Schools: Sorry, remaining staff will have to do the work Staff Cuts to SFUSD District Office: We need to hire even more consultants The reason we don't believe the district's insistence that they're broke is that they don't act like it

And Rick here knows, because the government messed up the lucrative health care fraud that built his fortune

Here's a waymo in the pedestrian crosswalk I had to whack because it started creeping forward again against the light

i hope the white house sends vance to campaign for Reform in britain

Idk man if you're going to celebrate your state-sponsored violence you could at least have an aesthetic better than "permanently eight years old and also evil" talkingpointsmemo.com/news/staff-a...
