Don't pay too much attention to elections outside my state but wild to me even state DSA is doing the "property taxes must be cut for upper middle class home owners class" thing. No one here admits you can't build Swedish level of social welfare state with Texas level taxes.

The thing about the Trump admin is literally everything is a con. From the biggest to the smallest. I won't even be surprised if even the toilet paper in the White House was only two-ply but being billed as three-ply

Only correct way to do the Odyssey is by casting Jason Mantzoukas for every role. Odysseus - Jason Mantzoukas Simon - De-aged Jason Mantzoukas Penelope - De-aged Jason Mantzoukas in a wig Athena - Jason Mantzoukas with a push up bra. Cyclops - Jason with eye patch and bald cap

My heart refuses to accept it but the polling and other data point to Dems being more likely to win the Texas Senate seat than the Michigan one.

One of my greatest wishes as someone who lives on Division would be if #Portland would pull over, tow, and crush into cubes all cars modified to be extra loud.

Watching anime makes me realize America should adopt Japanese style home bathrooms, with the separate wet room area.

If I didn't know better I would swear this was written by five rats with a typewriter.

The electric scooter is basically the most optional form of human transportation invented (range, cost, no pollution) and it is deeply disappointing cars were invented first because cities should be designed all around the e scooter.

I sure miss when the United States had aid programs to help stop the spread of disease in other countries both because it is morally good and it helps stop them from reaching us.

Basic understanding of policy has become "female" and "squishy sell out" coded. (Entirely on the right but also even growing on the left, look at the Platner campaign) No way the young 'alpha male' taking over the GOP will do that.

Dem should move to disbar all attorneys involved in 3 years.

Now we are cooking.

Being a health care expert for some long is weird watching "food desert" discourse over the decades grow and take on a life of its own. It was originally countering the "personal responsibility' argument poor people were making bad choices making themselves unhealthy. 1/

Well today made it clear #Portland is not negotiating with the new Trailblazer owners but with the NBA. It is merely a question if Portland will seem unreasonable enough the NBA lets them take one of the possible expansion markets.

Even with one of the most expensive housing markets, San Francisco had to basically abandon inclusionary zoning because it makes development financially impossible now that interest rates are no longer zero. www.smartcitiesdive.com/news/inclusi...

Inclusionary housing mandates targeted in San Francisco’s bid to spur developmentA proposal to reduce the requirement from 15% to a minimum of 5% inclusionary housing in select areas got approval from city supervisors this week.www.smartcitiesdive.com

Pretty interesting how quickly the #Trailblazer Moda upgrade negotiations went from "we have all the leverage there is no way they are moving the team" to "well it looks like they are planning to move the team no matter what"

Lot at those interested/motivated numbers! That is where we will see the difference between a wave and a bloodbath is if those disappointed right leaning voters even bother to turnout

Really impossible to separate impact of COVID trauma from at basically the exact same time tech companies learned to turn Algo selected short form outrage videos into digital crack, and people had a lot more time on their hands to get addicted.
