GW Bush was stupid but you could see him trying to get the wheels to turn. Trump is a grade A moron; there is nobody home behind his mean little stare.

A big part of Donald Trump's appeal among his ~30%, ride-or-die core is that he's the first president to be sincerely, authentically stupid and incurious in the exact same way as the fabled Median Voter. *Nothing* about his unintelligence is a gimmick or a put-on.

There was once an enslaved man who stole a Confederate ship and sailed his a bunch of families to Union controlled waters & got everyone free. Then he fought as a soldier in the Union Army. Then he was elected to US House of Representatives. Robert Smalls was born 187 years ago today

I think we should refrain from deporting military families

*as I get blasted in the face with raw sewage* I know it’s sewage so it can’t hurt me

Looks like Democrats are going to get "support the troops" in the divorce

Awful www.ajc.com/news/2026/02...

It’s not broken, Nate, you degenerate; it’s designed to be that way!!

This Reddit post is formatted like a joke but it’s actually a very dry recitation - at times, direct quotes - of America’s public war strategy over the last month. This can’t go on. This is deranged. Impeach and imprison.

You can really tell America is winning this war when the president panic posts “open the fuckin’ strait, you crazy bastards” at 5 am on Easter Sunday along with an extension on their deadline

Outlook now no longer automatically turns email addresses to clickable links. Gmail says you’re out of storage while leaving over 100k unread emails in “promotions”. AI tools are actually impressive but the slow degradation of core services continues unabated.

I think you lot should be filing impeachment articles whether you can carry the motion or not. Sometimes it is literally about principle

Feels like an LLM should be able to predict pretty well if Trump actually wrote that tweet. I actually don’t ever remember him dropping an f-bomb before. His style is very old racist boomer where it’s fine to call Somali Americans low IQ but offensive to do it with the f-word.

Putting aside Steven’s (correct) comments for a moment, the escalating hysteria in Trump’s tweets about Iran & Hormuz really gives away that Trump’s figured out Iran is collapsing the global economy, and Trump knows he has no way to fix it. My concern is what does the desperate man do

No we are not thank you

The @calendow.bsky.social astro turf opposition to this project is really unfortunate.

March 2026 is not even on the same distribution as past weather. It’s completely nuts. As if something has changed.

But to take it a more positive direction, what city surprised you most on the upside? For me it was Visalia CA.

Oh god i forgot I’ve been to Jacksonville

Not sure if the cities east of Dallas are big enough to count but I drove from Dallas to Shreveport and there was not a lot to recommend about it. Hartford (actually any city in Connecticut) was not great 20 years ago. Columbus though also 20 years ago.

👀👀 Los Angeles mutuals, I’m guessing a lot of us should be involved with this 👇🏻

and that's in the Bay Area where EVs are already totally normal and ubiquitous. Imagine being in like, Arkansas and trying to buy one bsky.app/profile/tril...

Liquidate the car dealers Liquidate the tax software companies Liquidate crypto and sports betting companies Liquidate any entity affiliated with the Trump family Purge the rottenness from the system

Undergrad: "We're going to build a subway network!" Grad student: "We can build light rail!" Early career planner: "BRT is a cost saving service as good as rail!" Grizzled planner: "What if we somewhat improved the existing bus service"

Urbanists and planners assume that since San Jose doesn’t have much office development, there just isn’t demand for transit-oriented Silicon Vary office development. But the demand is on the peninsula, those Caltrain stations are what need office upzoning assets.cushmanwakefield.com/-/media/cw/m...

I wish I could force these people's eyes to stay open Clockwork Orange-style and make them read every last word of this. bsky.app/profile/did:...

Once more for the people in the back.

"No no no no no, I said everyone ELSE needs to wake up to the horror. I, meanwhile, would like to sleep comfortably through the horror that I was complicit in causing while the people I refused to vote for solve all the problems for me, thank you."

750k SF of office space changing hands for $92.5m in DTLA. That is like 1/3 of what you’d pay for residential square footage where I live and maybe 1/8 of what single family on the Westside would cost. www.latimes.com/business/sto...

“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.
