It's critical we build more affordable housing, and to do that we have to get past these empty arguments from opponents meant solely to stop affordable housing.

Just voted. Thrilled to vote for @OsseChi (keep up the good work!) and @ZohranKMamdani #1. Haven't felt this good about a vote since I got to vote Wellstone for Senate. 🎉🎉 Good luck!

The glee over killing people without any sense of the grave responsibility, let alone any sense of moral wrong. The emojis. Cheering for war crimes. Tumescent over death. It's crass, pubescent, and unserious. We are ruled by monsters with the mentality of bro'ed up teenagers.

Just donated. So thrilled to see Kat taking this on. We need more of this! More candidates who refuse to accept what we should find unacceptable. Open your wallet!

Confused about the fast-moving effort to strangle the life out of functioning democracy? Then this is the article for you, focused on the biggest and most immediate threat.

Shortly after the end of the marathon. I'm sorry, but this is massively better than being choked with cars. It doesn't have to be no cars, but come on, all this space wasted on the worst form of transportation.

And having worked in that industry, I would add full of hubris and overconfidence with contempt for earned expertise in other fields. Many devs in particular, often being very bright people, think their software engineering skills are a problem-solving universal solvent.

Rode through Chinatown on my bike today and 1) I cannot believe people even want to drive their cars through there, what an absolute shit show. And 2) killing congestion pricing was about the dumbest decision I can imagine.

When right-wing scum tried to kidnap Gretchen Whitmer, Republicans made excuses. When a lunatic beat Paul Pelosi with a hammer, they made jokes. And when Trump sent a mob to attack the Capitol, they made up lies. Don’t lecture us about condemning violence.

I think it's because consequentialists transform "lesser evil" into "morally correct" which is an error imo. Where virtue analysis would say we have two choices, bad in different degrees, but still we must choose. But also we have to make the choice options better in the future.

If I had to pick one thing journalists miss in police reporting, it's that cops have tried to surveil, infiltrate, and violently crush every major social, economic, labor, environmental, and racial justice movement since 1900. It's what they spent their budgets on in every city.
