Pete Hegseth is an evil person. Everyone who has been focusing on his drinking could have paid attention to the fact that he’s actually just evil but then how would they have been able to demonize substance use instead of stuff like this, which he’s been doing for years

Hi
@npr.org
! We worked late tonight putting together this handy pocket guide! It doesn't address road design issues, but if we're going to educate road users, we should include drivers. It's the size of a folded business card. Print it, fold it, put it in your wallet!

The silver lining, if there is one to be found, is that there will probably be a non-trivial number of people who have just now discovered -- via the unavailability of Kimmel in their market -- that their local news is run by far-right-wing ideologues. Time to dust this segment off.

OOPS! I work at a large international high-tech instrument manufacturing company. We are US HQ, but 2/3 of our customers are non-US. The effect of the tariffs is to move our US manufacturing OVERSEAS to Malaysia, so we can build and sell to our International customers without paying tariffs.

ACAB includes the townie cop who told me it's too dangerous to ride bikes to school with my kid. I asked him why and he said because of all the cars. Maybe he should spend his time making them slow down instead of chastising us for not driving.

If you’re wondering how batshit bananas he has to be to claim, without any evidence, that Tylenol causes autism, let’s not forget his other proclamations: “Windmills cause cancer” “Injecting bleach cures Covid” “UV light cures Covid” “Summer cures Covid” “Covid will get bored and go away”

Well, there it is. Sinclair is digging in for a fight, so please help push back -- find stations in your area, watch their local news to see what ads they run, then write those advertisers to tell them you're boycotting as long as they're on a Sinclair station. List here:

I'd bet Los Angeles is going to fail as a city in the next ~ 10 years. Bankrupt and broken. At the core is the doctrinaire NIMBYism that governs the place -- a sure-fire way to go bankrupt -- but a culture that promotes NIMBY governance is the deeper issue: Nobody knows/cares what things cost.

Every time a city prioritizes non-car travel, pedestrianizes thoroughfares, expands transit, improves bike networks, implements congestion pricing or creates new public spaces, that city becomes better. It’s not a war on cars. It’s an effort to make cities better & more livable.

This is all very sad but misses the main point: Do not, under any circumstances, buy a house in Florida unless you can self-insure. Why people are still retiring there is beyond me. Buying homes? Insane. The place isn't going to make it.

11 years ago, RailPac put forth a similar Electrolink proposal. Metrolink dismissed it with the same arguments they're still using now. In that time, Caltrain electrified, while Metrolink has made only modest improvements. But a lot has changed since 2014. Will Metrolink change their tune this time?
