“.. Tesla Robotaxis are crashing once every 40,000 miles, whereas the average human driver in the US crashes about once every 500,000 miles.” 🤡 @rani.bsky.social $TSLA @mims.bsky.social sherwood.news/tech/teslas-...

ICE sprayed a one-year-old in the face with pepper spray. The child and parents are US citizens, but that doesn't even matter. These monsters pepper-sprayed a baby. We cannot allow ICE to continue this behavior, and they aren't going to reform themselves. www.washingtonpost.com/immigration/...

She is basically a fascist is the thing, though. She is the heir of more than one business magnate by way of her father and uncle and since the 2000s has been agitating for the overthrow of her country’s government’s which, however flawed, has more legitimacy than not.

When you're selling sugar water, all you have is your brand.

Anyone got a source for historical crime stats - or even just homicide stats - available for major cities? Looking for municipal level, not just MSA level. And going back to like 1960s or 70s. Everything I've found seems to peter out around mid-1990s.

Having to see a PCP to get a specialist referral is exactly how HMOs work. We have a hugely successful one providing high quality cost effective managed care in California. It's called Kaiser. Billionaires are morons. Keep that in mind.

The Heritage Foundation is an authoritarian Christian Nationalist organization. Treat their people accordingly.

I'll see you one San Jose and raise you a Jacksonville, FL - 10th largest city in the U.S. Whose municipal boundaries cover 747 square miles or nearly 16 San Franciscos.

Every single one of these techbro CEOs is a fucking psychopath. www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

Why should we pay attention to red states? Everybody in this country just lost access to student loan forgiveness because of the state of Missouri. You don’t need a coup when you can bribe red state AGs.

The nuclear block is the best feature of this app. Sorry not sorry. I'm not here to have to interact with socially maladjusted assholes. And neither should you.

Rank corruption of the highest order by traitors & insurrectionists. www.nytimes.com/2025/12/08/b...

The first amendment is being twisted by the stolen Supreme Court into an instrument of oppression and censorship, the same way they're twisting the Civil Rights Act into an instrument of Jim Crow Apartheid and bigotry. Useless for defending free speech but somehow mandates destroying schools.

I wonder how long it'll be before SCOTUS decides to tear down all vaccine requirements by mandating bullshit religious exemptions. Part of their overarching goal of destroying public school in part by making it unsafe for middle class parents to send their kids to

How does one deal with friends who still treat the NYT as a "liberal" standard bearer without entirely losing your shit? Doubly so in the context of this horseshit? www.nytimes.com/2025/12/03/b...

The inspiration for my Holiday Cave is a cross between Monroe's house at Christmas from Grimm and your favorite dive bar during Xmas week at 11 clock at night. Frankly it still needs more stuff.

Glogg stockpile prep.

The most repellent President since Andrew Jackson with equally repellent followers.

this is just gutter racism

If cultures didn't appropriate from each other, there'd be no culture. I hope everyone enjoys their spicy chilis (including Indian curries) courtesy of the Columbian Exchange. Also looking at you Al Pastor from the Levant. Shut up banh mi and your modified baguettes.

I think we can safely say that the Leavitt's brother called ICE on his ex, the mother of his child, and I have to say: I have no desire to respect, find common ground or share the country with these monsters.

Reviewing limited partnership agreements on a Sunday is the bee's knees. Says only insane people and people into BDSM.

Your periodic reminder that @radiofreetom.bsky.social who many of you like to follow, and who writes for the Atlantic, was pushing the great replacement theory before Trump and has never apologized for it. He's part of what got us here.

I love reviewing certificates of insurance said no one ever.

Only in San Francisco do conservative reactionaries get to call themselves progressive entirely because the Left in SF has made it scriptural doctrine that opposite all market rate housing is the one true socialism.

The sheer amount of unsolicited sales spam from CRE bros landing in my inbox (that's just the ones penetrating my spam filter service) over last 12 months is my leading indicator that the CRE market is still in the toilet. Or that AI ruins everything

MTG is just a fascist bring caught up in intra-fascist infighting. It's a Night of Long Knives situation. You do not, under any circumstances, have to hand it to her. (Which is distinct from, say, the Mugwump Never Trumper neocons who've been "No Fash" since day one.)

It's giving incredible SDE on the part of Bezos.

Like everything else Trump touches and turns into shit, homelessness in America is about to spike thanks to the sociopaths and sellouts at HUD: www.politico.com/news/2025/11...

It is absolutely insane that "the GOP regularly wins supermajorities in the Deep South because white southerners reliably vote for the GOP at a rate outstripping any other demographic" is consistently taken as morally normative, instead of a simple descriptive statement.

I seriously don't understand how corporate hiring managers or corporate recruiters would seriously accept job candidates from the product of a lot of these (largely Southern) MAGA run states at this point. You can't rely on their students having received a real education anymore.

Straight out the Nazi playbook.

Rhetoric taken directly from Nazi Twitter. I can tell you the precise accounts even

@sfbart.bsky.social like transit agencies across the country has for decades been addicted to expanding outward to chase far flung suburban commuters. All the while actual transit experts have criticized that model as brittle & neglectful of higher value intracity service buildout. And here we are.

Democrats doing their best to live up to their reputations as a bunch of wimps completely afraid to take a punch.

thinking back to when eric cantor got knocked out in a primary in 2014

Primary every accommodationist motherfucker voting for this.

It's a Cave Bill and the Democratic Party owns it.

Longest shutdown in history leaving Americans unprotected, unfed & unhoused. All because of Republicans juvenile belief that being in charge means that they don't have to grow the fuck up. The American people are sick & tired of this extended temper tantrum thrown by a bunch of MAGA man-children.

The world’s first trillionaire initiated a move that has left more than half a million people dead, most of whom are children.

Predicted mood for Democrats after tonight's total & complete shellacking of MAGA:

Gonna keep saying it: if a bartender who never ran for office ever before can take out Nancy Pelosi's heir apparent, there's someone out there who can successfully primary Jeffries out of a job.

Yes, Graham Platner attended a private high school in Bangor (John Bapst). His dad is a lawyer & mother a restaurateur. His grandfather is Warren Platner - a semi-famous mid century architect whose furniture collection is still made by Knoll: www.knoll.com/shop/en_us/c...

Canadians really need to learn to channel their inner WWI war-criming energy in the future.
