For the third time in the Finals, the Valkyries hold the Dream to their lowest point totals of the season. 64 points in game 1, then 62 points in game 4, now 55 in game 5. Valks were also responsible for Dream’s regular-season low of 66. Their regular season average was 91.3 ppg.

Pro-housing groups sued five jurisdictions over SB 79 maps. One San Diego lot sits 375 feet from a trolley station but was excluded because a 100-foot alley has no sidewalk. The suits argue that the gap shouldn't count as a lack of a walkable route. www.housingwire.com/articles/sb7...

Now we are talking about why multiple stairs were required. Wycoff hotel in Atlanta 119 people dead. Photograph of lady who jumped out of the building. [it's a black and white photo because we are using examples from the before times.] Also cites Lasalle Hotel 61 dead and Dubuque 16 dead.

A very important detail that gets missed here is that these folks are NOT engineers. They are building department plan examiners, inspectors, firefighters, etc. They do enforcement and implementation, not system-level analysis. It’s kind of like if the police could write the criminal laws.

This is a form of retaliation against someone for speaking out. He knew he would be punished, buy that punishment does not include unnecessarily strict confinement (which is barred by military law). www.military.com/air-force-ma...

The NYPD just released surveillance video of the ICE shooting (which occurred off camera). Two men in civilian clothes run up to a car with guns drawn. One second later, one man begins smashing the butt of his gun into the driver’s side window. The driver appears to panic and hit the gas.

It’s cool, and not incredibly demoralizing, that the last ~25 years (? more?) have been an increasingly flagrant demonstration that The Rules, as we were brought up to understand them, just do not apply to a lot of people

I've been endorsed by the Alameda County Democratic Party! I'm beyond thrilled that, in a race for the @rideact.bsky.social Ward 3 seat, my message resonated with party leadership.

you know whats "funny" I know for a fact she's never encouraged people to get involved, the biggest impact you can have is to have been a valuable volunteer, fundraiser etc for a successful Democrat

Bass hates taco trucks because she’s running for the mayor of 1984 Los Angeles; Raman is running for mayor of 2026. And the Sherman Oaks HOA believes in an American dream of suburbs without a city, and Bass is willing to pretend that’s sustainable.

I'm working to end unfunded inclusionary zoning in El Cerrito, which has produced zero affordable units. A year ago City Council reduced inclusionary fees to 25% and reduced or eliminated other fees for four projects. It worked! One of those projects is going to Planning Commission next week.

Golden State Valkyries forward Gabby Williams: “There’s a lot of discourse around trans athletes and what they can compete in. I would welcome a trans athlete on my team or against my team. Anytime. I don’t think it’s a problem in the world, it’s just another way to kind of attack trans people.”

Aaron 🏗️🚲🌲🏀@aceckhouse.bsky.social

Most cities are doing their best to follow the law, but some are not. The worst is probably Beverly Hills, which is trying to use a shell game to disappear nearly 3,000 homes worth of zoned capacity. HCD should have nipped this in the bud, but there's still time for them to bring down the hammer.
