It’s so funny to me that the way one watches a movie is divisive. Who fucking cares. It’s the execs and board of directors that have ruined film and tv not me watching something at home or on my laptop.

Also design the roads so this is impossible.

Are we gonna act like this is normal? NY City Council Member Vickie Paladino is an unhinged danger to her colleagues. Here she is fantasizing online about shooting people. I’m sure that being a Council Member is hard enough without a violent co-worker. This makes a ULURP hearing seem palatable.

I WANT IT.

This reminds me of the biker gang that roughed up an suv on the westside of manhattan and it turned out half the biker gang were cops.

Something people gloss over in the food world is the depressing treks to like restaurant depot.

God Joe Rogan should have started roasting this loser.

Got the furnace serviced today and the guy asked about carbon monoxide detectors so it’s a good day to share my favorite reason for ensuring your CO detectors are fully functional as the winter approaches:

When you move to NYC you wonder why some cool things don’t happen and it’s bc of homeowners in neighborhoods like Middle Village or Breezy Point.

Yeah uh btw the NY women's pro soccer team won their league this weekend! Not seeing nearly enough about that, but thanks to @council.nyc.gov for giving them props and spreading the word

one thing thats crazy about the current era in the states is that it is clear across most domains that science got processed by a lot of people as "traumatic encounter with the real" and now they are just making decisions based on that trauma. elon, peter, anti-vaxxers, all the same problem

Abolishing ICE is only the beginning. Have you looked at your local cops? .. According to mappingpoliceviolence.us, police kill at least three people per day; from a meta analysis published in NYT, we now know the number could be six or even more.

That’s the condition here in Los Angeles, abductions are still happening daily. @lataco.bsky.social has been reporting 6 days a week, basically listing all the abductions they know about It’s horrific but an invaluable resource. Especially because Los Angeles is so geographically huge

The thing I keep coming back to as a meta-point in this story is that one of the first people who most prominently lost touch with reality was *one of OpenAI's own investors*, which all of their senior execs know about. Yet even that hasn't fully reined them in or caused them to reflect.

Pretty rough couple of days for the downstate and upstate prisoner industrial complexes/jobs programs, I see

Here's an amazing cover Cliff did of The Guns of Brixton, a seminal Clash song that of course references Cliff himself in The Harder They Come. A definite "cover even better than the original" song. youtu.be/rt10xjeIKlY?...

Damn. RIP Jimmy Cliff. A great loss. The Harder They Come is a great movie and one of my favorite songs. youtu.be/7Znh0OM9jiA?...

One of the greats. RIP. www.bbc.com/news/article...

Maybe the issue isnt just Netanyahu, idk

The boomers are going to starbucks rn lamenting trump while crossing the picket line.

Basing whether young people are protesting on No Kings protest attendees is flawed logic. Also completely ignores this whole year in LA. In February, we saw high school students organize themselves for city wide walkouts. In June, our streets were full of young ppl. None of this mentioned in piece.

30k students walked out in Charlotte to protest ICE kidnappings last week:

If there’s one thing that DSA has learned from labor unions it’s that getting material wins at the expense of others is fine bc it’s for the working people.

Dallas is the future of America-- physically, spiritually, and politically. I went to the fastest-growing city in America to see what is in store for us all. Today, the final part of my story: Sprawling to Freedom. www.hamiltonnolan.com/p/america-is...

"Texas is America’s most advanced example of what happens when you mix our famous racism and self-mythologizing with a fatal dose of internet poisoning and unrestrained capitalism. We sit in our gleaming new homes, fingering our weapons, aiming at enemies that exist in our minds."

Ofc LA city admin still grabbing starbucks on their way to encampment sweeps.

Remember that striking Starbucks workers are asking you not to buy Starbucks right now

I still can’t believe Phil Rosenthal wrote anything funny for this show.

In LA when DSA electeds show up to a meeting you know its to reign folks in and keep people from making too much noise. It’s really demoralizing the way the chapters use power internally.

The biggest failure of Cyclavia is that if you aren’t participating but have to drive near it, you’ll hate your life. Metro needs to do a really big public transit push around each event, make express bus routes nearby. Make it that no one needs to drive around the street closure.

Something everyone should be asking their DOTs about is raised crosswalks! Such a simple design solution that gets drivers to slow down where people are!!!!

Just gut-wrenching. Prison guards are the gangs charged with doling out violence for people deemed unworthy of compassion.

It’s depressing that they weren’t seriously listened to, and even more depressing that releasing prisoners doesn’t seem to be on the map when discussing solutions to the fact that we can’t adequately serve, much less protect, people in state custody.

this is not a drag of the writer of this particular piece, which is largely sympathetic, but this line of argument makes me nuts young people are involved in protest and organizing at several levers of power—but they're not able to show up to photo op street rallies at the same rates as retirees

When the prison guards went on strike, many inmates said they were doing so to preserve their ability to do things like this.

Everything is in service of the platform “for NYers” but along the way there are sure to be many disappointments, partially bc of how a socialist has positioned themselves, and like here, supporting Jeffries even though he is part of what got us to this point and not a good faith partner.

I really dislike this:

There’s a huge difference between corporate sponsorship and corporate takeover and I actually think it’s pretty gross that Netflix took over a whole event and made it about themselves with the Stranger Things branding. I skipped the event this year because of it.

I am torn. I want to see more community pedestrian focused events generally and it would be great if people who don’t normally show up come to this and then go to subsequent non-Netflix events. But if it feels more like just a corporate activation? No

Reminder that swalwell is an idiot. Like just a stupid guy that raises his profile by “fighting” trump without actually doing much to help anyone.

a PSA: most nonprofit newsrooms right now are probably participating in the NewsMatch program RIGHT NOW. That’s a program funded by a few foundations that “matches” your end-of-year donation. If you set up $10 monthly, that literally unlocks $120 from NewsMatch. So who could you support?

Meta halted internal research that purportedly showed (young) people who stopped using Facebook became less depressed and anxious, according to an unredacted legal filing released on Friday. www.cnbc.com/2025/11/23/m...

Imagine knowing your platform was a playground for predators, fueling teen depression, eating disorders, and suicide and deciding the best course of action was… absolutely nothing. Meta didn’t just “miss” anything.

I get that MTG sucks but Dems are very really allowing her to capture the discontent instead of recognizing it and offering a non-racist alternative. It’s not about convincing cruel assholes not to be racist but theres so many people grasping at any alternative.

The transparency from the Mamdani campaign team has been amazing and it’ll be wild to see Dem leadership stubbornly refuse to entertain the merits of the campaign bc of Islamophobia and a disdain for young people, instead opting to emulate the aesthetics which is insulting to everyone.

“Culver City becomes first California city to allow six-story apartment buildings with just one staircase, a move to ease housing construction and affordability. Single staircases reclaim 7% of space for actual homes while creating wider units with better light—and fitting on smaller urban parcels.”

We're seeing some confusion about this, so let's talk about it. Home Depot has been complicit as ICE snatches day laborers out of parking lots. At minimum Home Depot is turning a blind eye, and there have also been rumors they may be more actively complicit. Organizers including #weaintbuyingit 🧵

Ian Miles Cheong: Everyone must go back to the country where they are born. Please don't tell people I'm living in Malaysia, where I was born, but spend my entire life complaining about America. Ian Miles Cheong: *has been secretly living in Dubai this whole time*
