Thanks IG algorithm for showing @aoc.bsky.social our Las Cruces Timebank video

We had something that could have supported HUNDREDS of working artists but they gave it all away to shareholders, Viacom executives and people who flunked out of LA. Now, it’s not even safe to go there because these vampires see security as overhead.

The General Plan has been a menace to Santa Fe for 25 years

Hey Santa Fe! Let’s Party!

Haters say we can't sustain a local media institution on people power. That we're all too jaded, braindead, and apathetic to make our community into an shining example of how we can come together to solve problems. Let's prove them the fuck wrong.

We love Albuquerque or "Burque" whatever you call it we love it.

Spending Time at a Las Cruces Timebank

Why so many car washes? We talked to Housing Advocate @danielwerwath.bsky.social and City Councilwoman Jamie Cassutt to learn what exactly "land use" is and why we should know something about it when it comes to the future of Santa Fe.

Standing room only for our show on housing and unhoused issues in Santa Fe/New Mexico last night

Millions of people saw a video this week of Deivi Molina-Pena, seen here making an arepa in his apartment, screaming for help as ICE arrested him in a local Walmart. Our story today at @sourcenm.com interviews his family and explores a feud that might have led to his arrest:

Santa Fe’s love of “casitas” runs deep. Can that spirit shape our housing solutions? We look at life inside the city’s pilot micro-community site. Join us for a free discussion with Stephanie Nakhleh, Chainbreaker, and Homewise on housing at the Jean Cocteau Cinema, Thursday, July 17th, 6 pm.

The volunteer news org I'm in was profiled by the local PBS station. It led to a discussion about objectivity, because we're transparent about our politics and how they guide us. Here's the thing about journalistic objectivity: it doesn't exist and it helps bad actors disguise their motives.

Shout-out to @cailleychella.bsky.social for featuring us on New Mexico in Focus. Full story on the PBS App and on NM in Focus on YouTube.

What happens when you threaten the outdoors in a state as outdoorsy as New Mexico?

The city of Santa Fe is betting $9 million that Urban Alchemy is the solution for homelessness

OUR VIEW: What’s unknown are Urban Alchemy’s ambitions for Santa Fe and will elected city officials want more than street-trained psychologists? So many questions, so few answers. Residents deserve to know. sfnm.co/4dDQyNn

At the center of Santa Fe's downtown plaza sits a partially destroyed monument, toppled in 2020 on Indigenous People's Day. But why does this monument have the unique distinction of being the only monument torn down during the 2020 protests that's dedicated to Union Soldiers?

La Cieneguilla, just west of Santa Fe, has a triple threat to its water supply. In addition to decreasing water from drought and development as well as contaminates from an old wastewater facility, La Cieneguilla's wells may be contaminated with toxic, cancer-causing "forever chemicals”

Strategic Legislation Against Public Participation (SLAPPs) silence non-profits, journalists, & everyday people just trying to say the starbucks bagel sandwich at St. Francis/Cerrillos is subpar. In NM House Bill 169 would make it much harder for corporations to sue the little guys to kingdomcome
