Silicon Valley to the California economy when their latest bonanza blows up in their face

a sad day for In Ulm, um Ulm, und um Ulm herum (where is Vienna to Paris lol)

Chris Hayes clearly going mentat-mode on these PDFs

Finally understanding today how important Ollie's post was

Japanese twitter taking the Suica penguin news very normally

VA/Kaiser for All fixes this

We don't have political parties in the US, just campaign committees and party labels

I recall @eean.dev getting ratio’d for observing during the Biden administration the obsequiousness the admin and Congress pays to air travel compared to any other form of transportation or communication.

Zhongshan's Zhongshan statue. Thanks Zhongshan!

@ansel.lundberg.com is it like this?

Always thought this church logo was about how they're really against drinking

It still blows my mind that in the year 2025 wood smoke is equal to or greater than cars in terms of dangerous pollution, this is true not just in France but also California, according to this BAAQMD white paper.

Lmao this would be so pathetic

Having a @stephenjacobsmith.com ??? moment, Oakland edition

Finally we're getting that fascist ideology in the pedantic academic sense

And they're not-not investing tons in AI. It seems like PVs, batteries and deserts does position China well for the future regardless.

Funny aura farming, why would Bannon go to jail. His full-time job is going to fake award ceremonies.

Doesn't the Maine electorate know that rural white people hate gun laws

Berkeley drivers 😅

The "I'm not dead" guy in the Monty Python bit walking around to everyone's amazement 😅

This is a great piece on efforts to envision a truly transformational regional rail system for So Cal. Looks at all these publicly-owned tracks! We should have have 15 minute peak service running under overhead wires powered by 100% renewable energy.

haha I believe this now

One more tariff on bananas will fix this

Single-stair plus multifam zoning on single-fam lots might be what prefab needs to take off. Manufacturing processes require scale and repeatability; only single-family lots deliver those. Homeowners want too much customization in ADUs, but developers might be profit-minded enough to see the vision.

Self-crit: Today Im the asshole on the bus with French fries. Not eating them bc I'm not an asshole but I know it's wrong.

Rain now results in fire 😅

I love this so much

Microbrewery neighborhoods showing up. Here's Temescal

The yggy calculus that's it's all about disowning SFUSD's old 8th grade algebra policies is stupid for obvious reasons but also bc policy agendas don't win or lose elections period.

So true

Trump and I weirdly agree here that Republicans should ditch the filibuster, I because I hate the Republican Party and he because he can’t imagine a world without him

Not the important thing but the idea that Puerto Rico would assuredly elect Democrats doesn't actually survive much scrutiny. Making PR a state should be done for its merits, it's actually not a great partisan hack.

It's bleak that the GOP Congress seems to be holding the line against Trump for the first time and it's in defense of their own ineptitude.

lol

Loved him mentioning faster buses in his speech tonight. What a great policy goal.

Lol @ this crowd erupting in applaud just at "Eugene Debs"

TIL that Rep. Zohran Mamdani is the principal author of A00801, which would streamline utility relocation permits for MTA's capital projects. Discretionary utility relocation permits are a major driver of transit/rail project delay and cost escalation. www.billtrack50.com/billdetail/1...

Massive moment for the utility relocation streamlining for transit projects community

Lol there's a DJ at the ballot drop off

It's gonna be really bleak when Oracle gets their hands on it

Safety first!

The first half is actually like 90% of the critics of the Democratic Party. Not only is the party not democratic centralist, it's also not a political party in the European sense, and it in fact barely has agency at all. It's just not a useful unit to critique at all.

lol "trying to find the guy who did it" for the USPS not stamping received mail in rural areas promptly

@estupi.do smh

Hahaha

I really want to hear this story from the Kaiser advice nurses POV
