Adaptive reuse, kei trucks, and breakfast tacos. 3 of my favorite things

imo Dems should treat these people the way they claim we treat them

My grandpa, a Great Society Democrat and General Electric middle manager, would randomly print off little modernist creeds like this and earnestly suggest that I hang them up somewhere. We need more of this energy in America these days. Really only immigrants and Mormons have got it.

so your dream of a hemispheric common market with open trade and open borders was bullshit

Ok so I took the bus to some place in DeKalb County called “Your DeKalb Farmers Market“ and it’s insane (laudatory). It’s basically globalist Costco.

Holy shit the Decatur MARTA station goes hard

All of the companies selling properties to ICE have names. For instance, the company who sold a warehouse in San Antonio to ICE for their concentration camp here is called Oakmont Industrial Group out of Atlanta, GA and the members of their board are publicly available on LinkedIn. Thanks.

Needs eurobeat.

Hola y bienvenida a Woke Dos

okay, but it's not the platforms that lose in the push for mandatory age verification, it's human rights and free expression that loses

Sometimes I come across a life changing band and this is one of them. And of course they’re French Canadian because there’s no way the anglo mind could conceive of this

america’s two largest cities being run by progressive, pro-housing, and pro-transit south asian mayors would rule

journalists are workers who deserve to be paid fairly for our labor and I think that far too few consumers of media recognize or even care about this fact

Also in Playbook: Council Speaker Julie Menin will announce at today's ABNY breakfast that the Council will make the Big Apple's outdoor dining program year-round again. Menin's team says the most likely path is passing @cmrestler.bsky.social's 2025 bill. www.politico.com/newsletters/...

It is crazy how many ppl in the replies and quote posts are responding to the keys Markey is jangling in front of them exactly the way he wants instead of saying "wait, how can we abolish ICE 'right now' when Trump is still president and has veto power?"

He shouldn’t have been discouraged from primarying Jeffries.

This must be world’s only remaining 6MT G35 that hasn’t been used in a street takeover

this one is called goose horse

I think LIC is cool

imagine if there’s a crisis that isn’t his fault

Will in his Honda Fit vs. ICE, 2026 (colorized)

really seems to be two kinds of 'car guys' when it comes to urbanism and streets: car as status symbol and car as hobby/passion project. the latter seem totally fine with or even actively in favor of things like more bike lanes, it's the status symbol guys who flip out about parking.

I’m a YIMBY for good things and a NIMBY for bad things

“If you spend some time working inside the bureaucracy and you keep your eyes open, you can learn a lot about the points of leverage that leftist politicians and outside advocacy groups can press to their advantage.”

i will never get over this rebecca tiffany quote: the goal of yimbyism is a world where "every trans eighteen-year-old who is stuck living with unsupportive family [is] able to afford an apartment in a vibrant urban space with transit on a minimum wage job." www.liberalcurrents.com/feminism-wit...

I don't like a lot of what's going on!!!

Happy congestion pricing anniversary to all who celebrate

this is also why I dislike when liberals use “leftist” as a pejorative or vice versa

I need to get off Bluesky

I suspect there is a high correlation between people who think apartments should never be sold individually (“we don’t need more condos, we need affordable housing,” meaning deed-restricted and owned by nonprofits) and people who believe single-family houses shouldn’t be rented out

No one wants to talk about it but halal cart white sauce is just garlic dill ranch and that’s okay.

I’m not crying, you’re crying

I've spent a couple of days working on this one, and it didn't end up quite where I expected it to. But I think this is the clearest way I can describe where my head's at, why I approach LLMs in the way that I do, and why, while it's describing-not-prescribing, it's a little light prescribing too.

As the author of an unexpectedly popular Python package, some of the comments in some of the Reddit threads about the `bincode` project infuriate me. My hobby is not your "supply chain".

Darn, Alewife Brewing is closing shop 🙃

People talk a lot about Trump-Zohran voters, but I’m curious what the Paladino-AOC voter would be

Ditto for mental illness.

I know a lot of people need to hear this: you can actually just criticize people directly for their direct actions instead of saying “they must be on drugs”

Voters decided to make our housing system less broken, so Council decides to make it broken in different ways. 🤡

bring back the mini

Indian English is so funny sometimes

Wow. This is an absolutely terrifying read. We now live in an age when a single company can, through what appears to be plain old bureaucracy, can more or less brick your entire digital life.

most people, left and right, treat traffic violence like the weather and not a specific policy choice

Congratulations to NY-10 on your new congressman

Obsessed with this new Blood Cultures song and music video

The thing about the average New Yorker’s objection to open gangway cars - that they’ll make the subway less safe because “bad people” can move between the cars - is that people already go between the cars all the time anyway. I’m tired of being held hostage in the city by people who are afraid of it
