A quick reference image for my ballot recommendations / endorsements for the #nov2026 #election in California. You can find lots more, including details for why I made these choices at corry.us/vote I'm keeping it current up until I mail-in my #ballot. #vote

For just over the price of a tank of gas, one can share opinions about the RTM regional transit measure with tens of thousands of households in the Bay Area! This one urges people to vote yes on RTM to fix the streets and reduce traffic. 🚃🚌✅

Thanks to everyone who came out to promote #MeasureRTM at the Berkeley bike bridge and help save Bay Area public transit. It was a beautiful morning, with many supportive honks from drivers crawling toward the Bay Bridge on I-80!

The elections are on next Tuesday, and so much is at stake, including the soul of the Democratic Party when it comes to transgender people. I am asking you to leave a very small number of races blank in which a Democrat has embraced extreme anti-trans hate. I make my case here.

I’ve been asked why I didn’t receive an endorsement from the #DSA. It’s because I’m too far left for them. And their members act like a priesthood for baptizing leftist candidates, when I’ve been at this longer than they’ve existed. Literally in the case of some of these condescending youngsters. 🌹

Today, for @rewirenewsgroup.com, @madisyn-writes.bsky.social looked into the to the limited data and conflicting guidance around breast cancer screening options for trans women. It's troubling. And it could have life-changing consequences for patients. I hope you'll give it a read.

its insane how not many people are talking about how republicans with the help of several moderate democrats are building out the largest abusive medical conversion therapy operation in modern american history

every trans space for the two weeks leading up to the election is like, "you remembered to vote, right???" and then discussing the nuances of like, state court judge candidates for two hours

doubly funny that OPD credits Flock and then is like “yeah actually it’s probably the city sponsored non police violence prevention program”

extremely funny that violent crime in Oakland is at historic lows while Oakland PD is also having an historic staffing crisis. almost like we should,,, abolish the police perhaps???

“For starters, she would like to see big corporations taxed at a higher rate, with that money moving into small business development.” Tragic that we’re having such a hard time finding politicians with the will to do what’s necessary.

"The Bay Area does 1.3% of America's driving but pays 5.2% of the income taxes now bailing out America's highways"

It’s almost as if all the bullshit #captcha tests I’ve had to do for big tech over the last couple decades weren’t for actual security 😲 (sarcastic Pikachu face) but to train these models to subvert it so they could have even more advantages over smaller companies.

Lula won reelection in Brazil defeating right-wing Trump and Vance ally Bolsonero. Serbian authoritarian and Putin and Trump ally Vucic who was in power for 14 years was defeated. Vote. Vote early. Let's give our country and the rest of the world some more good news. See less

The thing I wish cis people would internalize is that you cannot rationalize your way out of this being in your coalition. I MUST treat this as a serious risk to my life because it might be. These ads force trans people to move through the world differently and it's rational for us to do so

the handful of die-hard anti-trans voters that exist are going to vote GOP no matter what. so this ad will not pick up a single new voter. all it does is further disenfranchise trans ppl – a marginalized group MAGA hates. this is a pro-MAGA ad & Turek is furthering MAGA's cause by airing it

I prefer no-phone concerts by far. It’s so sad to me that people (other than folks who need devices for accessibility) have such a hard time putting them down for a couple hours. 😔 We all need a break from our screen addictions.

(1/5) DRA’s #VotingRights victory is making headlines! We’re proud to see this important legal victory covered by leading news outlets and publications across #California and beyond. Check out some of the coverage below! @sfchronicle.com: www.sfchronicle.com/politics/art...

Older buildings provide a lot of cheap housing, even though they aren't required to charge low rents the way subsidized affordable housing is. This often works OK, but there's risk of big rent increases when buildings change owners. Helping existing owners out, or helping nonprofits buy, can help.

Just for a little context for why certain city council members are against my plans to tax big corporations and end contracts with surveillance companies... See the public FPPC filings here: portal.laserfiche.com/Portal/Brows... #noPACs #noCorporateMoney #taxTheRich

It would be lovely if the video games industry would let the people who make the games buy food

Republicans last week: We're thinking about doing less anti-trans ads.. they seem to be pretty ineffective.. no one cares. Democrats this week: We're gonna do anti-trans ads.. lots of them.. we're thinking about making it a central issue of our platform. Me: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA🤷‍♀️☠️

In a major escalation in Dems embracing anti-trans positions, the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, the official campaign arm of House Democrats, released its first anti-trans ad supporting Nancy Lacore in SC-01. Transphobia is spreading among dems. Subscribe to support our journalism.

This is fiscally irresponsible. That’s what they say when we want to improve our schools, fix our parks, make our streets safer, stop a data center, fight fossil fuels, or build housing. ❌ Cops making more than 2x teachers with 4-year degrees do? ✅ #defundPolice @emeryvilletoday.bsky.social

It went 50 miles an hour, had no pedals, and legally required the driver to have a motorcycle license. You may as well call a bazooka a bicycle and label them a menace to society.

Just as a private equity firm buys out a corporation and strips it for parts, a consultant class is raiding the Democratic Party and getting “generationally wealthy” along the way New from me and @adambonica.bsky.social newrepublic.com/article/2163...

I have spoken to so many survivors who have avoided opportunities—including running for office—because they worry that their abusers would resurface and terrorize them all over again if they were in the public eye. It’s craven for a political campaign to weaponize that.

The first genuinely honest ad for generative AI I've ever seen, from Microsoft / CoPilot A mediocre white guy sees his non-white colleague getting praised for good work, he asks AI to *literally copy it*, and then he gets all the praise instead: www.ispot.tv/ad/SoDi/micr...

"I don't just want someone who can tell me what freedom is. I also want to know what your freedom cost the people around you. I don't want theories anymore of the good life that are completely disembodied from real people." Banger video by Britt Hartley #women #philosophy

The Senate's bipartisan permit reform bill would upend the National Environmental Policy Act and also weaken the Endangered Species Act, the Clean Water Act, and the National Historic Preservation Act. My legal analysis: scholarship.law.columbia.edu/faculty_scho...

People telling you that both sides are the same so you shouldn’t vote is a psyop. If voting doesn’t matter then why is one side trying to make it so difficult to vote?

@kyla.bsky.social posted a great Short about #propertyTaxes this week.

At a community meeting in #Emeryville this weekend, one of the participants asked us: How can voters know if a candidate will do what they say they will? Why should we believe what you say on the campaign trail? Here's how I determine my trust in local candidates. #fppc #transparency #CorrysBlog

I love this piece from @nuala.bsky.social, really captures the mix of rage and exhaustion so many of us are feeling www.coyotemedia.org/text-me-when...

Reporter Paul C. Kelly Campos sat down with the co-founder of Península 360 Press, a Spanish-language news outlet. In addition to a website, it has a mobile radio cabin, collaborates with local theater groups, and one of its most beloved reporters is... a puppet. www.coyotemedia.org/peninsula-36...
