no one knows who this twice elected city councilwoman is! we are very smart and engaged with politics…

People who think gender affirming care like social transitioning or puberty blockers are being done TO children don't think children have or should have any agency over their lives. And that explains A LOT Gender affirming care isn't being done TO kids. It's being done FOR them if THEY want it

Let's get this... I became a Knicks fan in the 80s because of this guy ...

This is very good news. share.google/AqAtyIB2O3zW...

Been saying this for a minute: the organized transphobia movement is a child rape cult

They’re packaging it like this so it looks like a shallow trend, but Gen Z has gone through two financial crises, a pandemic, rising fascism, active shooter drills since they were toddlers, and are now being told by the oligarchy they’re to be replaced by robots. Socialism is the logical conclusion.

Screwworm: as if you needed another reason to give up eating meat.

credit where credit is due, getting your cult addicted to tallow before importing screwworms is a good bit

"[Bari] Weiss’s ascent provides a lesson in how liberal institutions can sometimes place such value on proving that they’re open-minded that other liberal values, like standing for actual liberal things in the world, get tossed aside." @mjtoma.bsky.social nails this: newrepublic.com/post/211430/...

The right in this country have totally lost it, a complete and utter collapse of any kind of cordon sanitaire with the far right in favour of gutter racism. It's been slow, but the grinding move from "anti-white racism is real" from far right agitprop to Times leader is complete.

Monterey Park in LA County is now the first city in the country where voters have banned data centers. At the ballot box residents overwhelmingly chose to ban data center construction, voting 86%-14% in favor of the indefinite moratorium.

Kush got me rooting for the Los Angeles Knicks

The arc of the moral universe only bends towards justice if we bend it. There's no karmic comeuppance for fascists. There's just us. Community and hard work and a willingness to to take risks and fail.

Retaliations continue at Adelanto as guards in full riot gear allegedly storm cells and disappear detainees who spoke with Congress members. @lataco.bsky.social

“Exploiting this tragedy to create grievance and division would be wrong in any circumstances but to do it when the family are expressly saying please don’t is unforgivable. It shows exactly who he is” Keir Starmer responds to Nigel Farage at #PMQs

New research examines Waymo's California robotaxi trips btw Aug 2023 and Dec 2025. Conclusion: 46% of miles driven involved no one inside the car. That's 40 million miles of deadheading, with Waymo vehicles using road space w/o transporting a human. doi.org/10.32866/001...

Fck Data Centers!!

Huge shout out to Katie Porter and Matt Mahan for this stupid fucking mess

The CA political ads stop today and we’re all winners in that regard

RE: LRT, pretty much every atrocity taking place in ICE jails has a precedent in US jails and prisons. We urgently need to abolish ICE, but we can't stop there.

i just want some fuckin trains, man

Our government will give sports teams billions of your tax dollars for stadiums, billions to build fossil fuel plants, billions to corporations to improve profits. Our government will not give taxpayers solar panels to reduce utility costs or build great public transit. Our priorities are against us

I try to find a next-morning Olivia Miles highlight montage from any Lynx game I'm not able to watch live. I'm almost always giggling and shaking my head within 30 seconds.

this is the type of shit that was kinda cute back in 2012 but absolutely does not fly anymore. stop treating the fascists like they’re your besties!

New reaction pic just dropped #WNBA

Happy Sportsmanship Month! 🤣

They really couldn’t do better for halftime than a Media Day feature about “close friends” Paige and Azzi????

Love that Pride starts in the WNBA with Paige and Azzi playing in the first game of Pride Month

so unitary executives are allowed to cancel elections if those elections didn't use the new racism map

United Nations on Friday added Israel and Russia to a UN blacklist of countries suspected of committing sexual violence in conflict zones, a move that prompted Israel's foreign ministry to say it would sever all ties with UN. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres.

Note to media: police arresting peaceful protesters singing “give peace a chance” is not protesters “clashing” with police. It’s the state violating the First Amendment rights of people upset that human beings who did nothing illegal are being held without due process and being fed maggots.

I'm not saying we should abandon electrical technology, it's very good. But I will say I think we should return to mechanical means for many things. You do not need an app for your door lock. You do not need a smart fridge. You do not need a coffee machine with a camera. Bring back the mechanical.

If you've never walked a picket line I don't particularly care about your opinions on The Economy

Hard to believe that it's been 32 years since the last time we hosted a World Cup and... I'm just not interested in attending games. FIFA is so gross, and our fedgov is also gross, but our gestapo is "providing security" at matches. I hope stadiums are well under capacity.

It is simply untenable for the Senate Leader of the Democratic Party to be someone whose number one issue is being unconditionally supportive of a country that >80% of his party's voting base views negatively

I will keep saying this until people start understanding: Data centers are speeding up the wars of the future, which will be over water, not oil. This is not something to wait until after the fact to fight. If you will not be able to afford water, what do you think they will make you do for it?

Cops busting through a barricade that they set up is pretty tough to misinterpret.

Some liberals are OBSESSED with "private" prisons as though the problem is not simply PRISONS. Folks, the vast majority of prisons in the U.S. are PUBLIC NOT PRIVATE. And they are HELL HOLES. OK? I need folks to stop and actually focus on the PROBLEM which is PRISONS AND JAILS.

We all love our Olympians, but decision-making around the Olympics shouldn't be a closed-door deal between developers, the IOC, and city insiders. Vote Rae Huang for LA Mayor for transparency and advocacy for LA residents during the Olympic Games.

STOP ALL BUILDING OF DATA CENTERS. ALL. THE ONLY BENEFITS GO TO THE OLIGARCHS. THE REST OF US GET HIGHER UTILITY BILLS AND FEWER JOBS.

What are the odds on Jaxon Dart making it through the NFL season without a broken bone.

Catching up with news in LA from the last week & this is the first time in my whole life I don’t want to vote lol. The rhetoric & behaviour on all sides is so weird and tacky IRL + online. I get on my high horse a lot but I wouldn’t scold other adults? How does that inspire people? Buncha weirdos

Fine. I'll be the mayor of Los Angeles.

Just insane. New Jersey Gov Mikie Sherrill says DHS just denied state health inspectors full access to Delaney Hall. She's calling for it to be shut down.

The question we need to ask is what is the real reason for the sudden massive need for data centers everywhere?

It’s been 90F+ the entire time I’ve been in London, no cloud coverage, no breeze, just straight up brutal sun and I’m STILL NOT TAN what will it take 😭

Cult leader Jim Jones used to fake assassination attempts so that his cult would worship him harder. Just thought I’d share that history with everyone
