“Just a drunk infidel in a fake uniform” Where’s the lie?

this is significantly better quality than what our government’s captive troll organization creates

Incredible bracket here but my personal take is that while Hollywood/Sunset/Virgil correctly won, Stadium Way and Academy Rd is by far the most deranged intersection on the list because it easily could have been a normal 4-way intersection between an arterial road and side street.

LA really specializes in these cursed intersections where a diagonal street hits two main grid streets.

Another industry saved by democrats and what did we get for it. Reactionary auto executives and the UAW supporting Trump. Liquidate.

the accumulation of executive discretion as if it were a substitute for congressional legislation has, in immigration as in so much else, been kind of a shitshow

It’s really difficult to overstate the number of people the Biden admin handed a discretionary protection/work permit to, compared to the effort they made to permanently regularize such people — not by pressuring Congress; not by pressing to reduce asylum backlogs; etc.

DACA was sort of the original sin here, right? It was obviously the last the democrats and Obama could do at the time but it is truly a huge moral and political failure to not have fixed things permanently in 2021.

Confused as to why Hegseth doesn’t fix it by going even harder, I thought that was the solution to everything

🔥🔥🔥 The Nov-Mar 2025-26 cool/cold season was anything but cold for most of the Contiguous U.S. It was easily the warmest on record (1895-96 to present) overall. Many individual states shattered their record warmest Nov-Mar.

It was so freaking hot

Y’all are going to rope me into another LA-Mammoth trip that features driving through sagebrush to access a blocked off charging station

…call his attorney Jim DeSimone’s office at 310-693-5561 and tell them what you saw. There’s a federal injunction against firing less-than-lethal rounds at someone’s head if someone exercising their free speech rights, but these DHS fucks don’t care, and they took Tucker’s eye. All he was doing… 2/5

Los Angeles Bluesky, I need your help. I just learned that on Saturday at the protest at the downtown Metropolitan Detention Center, a friend’s 18-year-old son was shot in the eye with a pepper ball by DHS, permanently blinding him. He needs justice. If you were there and saw anything, please… 1/5

No Dubai by the Bay, say people who expect service workers to commute from San Joaquin County every day

lol

Scrolling through r/elevators. Many such cases… www.reddit.com/r/Elevators/...

It’s seriously deranged and I wish the next mayor could just shut them down, but it would probably lead to a literal police mutiny.

I don't think the unit aspect is affecting the price in a meaningful way. The 3/2 is $3.59/sqft vs the 3/3 at $3.57/sqft.

Almost every longer EV trip I've done has had at least one public charging incident that's spiked my blood pressure. Not this time! This stuff really is getting better, more than people realize. Now it just needs to be everywhere.

For some counter perspective on my charging experience

Not to put a damper on cross ventilation blue sky (we should have single stair) but interesting that the 3/3 units with only one window wall rent for $250 more than 3/2 units with two window walls. The 3/2 is a better layout. Also, is the death grip of walk in closets finally weakening?

It’s actually a very cool museum but it’s still funny that the banner image is the Petersen *Auto* Museum

Five years in to EV ownership, the insistence of the EV charging industry on using apps remains one of the most mystifying things about the experience. No one wants to download the Arco app just to pump gas. We want to tap our credit card (on a normal device that has existed for a decade) and go.

Someone told me this in like 2008 and it was definitely the correct take

We make urban planning really complicated, but I think it mostly boils down to: create a multimodal grid fill it in with diverse uses

Very close to the ideal Montreal facade of nothing but doors

“Kids count for HOV lanes” is pronatalist policy.

If you could. Which you can’t.

Humiliation and dismissal is not enough for these people. They must publicly prostrate themselves on the way out the door. I will never understand these freaks.

the job of the press at this point, should any of them choose to, you know, try to do it, is to ask every republican member of congress whether they know what the president’s objectives are for this war and ask them to list those objectives

The current 6-day Jeopardy champion works at a housing tax credit agency in New Jersey and for his banter with Ken he just looked directly at the camera and said "New York, California, shame on you, build more housing" and folks when I say heroes walk among us

Another Brooklyn rental project that the developer broke into 99-unit segments at great expense to avoid the wage requirements that the New York State legislature set in order to get the tax break to avoid the high taxes that the New York State legislature set newyorkyimby.com/2026/04/exca...

This is a national disgrace.

When you gotta boldly go

how is Alito more racist than the guys who were alive during Wong Kim Ark

To be fair, strong argument that Alito is such an agent and was activated by Trump

I mean, good, but it’s still a sign of profound dysfunction if this isn’t 9-0. A justice who will sign off on this is effectively announcing there’s nothing too flagrantly unconstitutional to get their blessing if a Republican president does it.

Few things more enjoyable than Bill Dauterive living his best life

Iran should make a deal but it doesn’t matter if they do. Also they’re desperate to make a deal. The strait will be open unless it’s not but it doesn’t matter to us. Also we’re leaving in 3 weeks. Got it. www.latimes.com/politics/sto...

CA’s $20 fast food minimum wage raised fast food prices by only 3%. The reason minimum wage increases keep not reducing employment and barely increasing prices is monopsony power. www.nber.org/papers/w34990

It already will be, the next Dem congress can just let the industry die the way Obama could have.

Drove down from Merced yesterday and it’s endless $7+ diesel signs in the Central Valley. Another Trump constituency that will have to learn the hard way

As @followtheh.bsky.social put it this is the part of the art of the deal where you negotiate against yourself while your opponent stands by and laughs.

Just the sheer oddity that the section of the commentariat (and electorate!) most obsessed with American strength also voted for the very obvious Imperial Suicide option, I think basically because Gender convinced them of the dumbest possible theory of what would constitute and project strength.

🚨OUR CAMPAIGN IS SURGING🚨 We are leading the Mayor's race at 32.5%, nearly double the incumbent, per LMU’s latest poll. Angelenos are ready for a city that actually works.

get in loser. we're building housing.

Psychotic stuff with western US snowpack, this is Colorado. You could figure out how many standard deviations off mean this is but why bother, we’re not even on the same distribution any more. It’s as if something has changed.
