When you realize how much space is wasted on cars, the possibilities are endless. This transformation in Bratislava 🇸🇰 turned an oversized junction into a green square. It's not about taking space away from cars. It's about giving it back to people.

Open anti-trans hatred among the Democratic Party has dramatically escalated this campaign season. Too many queer and trans gentry are excusing it. @davidforbes.bsky.social goes in-depth on how we got here, and why trans communities must reject compromise and fight for our survival and liberation.

Senator Collins, I think you are a little out of touch. This is about a cord of wood — and about Mainers struggling to afford to heat their homes this winter.

I really did not expect the conservative embrace of Cheesecake Factory like they’ve loved it the whole time - your beloved Cheesecake Factory was forged in Beverly Hills, baby, you are pretenders to the cheesecake

It's precisely because he didn't show mercy to the Black people of Chicago, that he will never be president.🤷🏿‍♂️ 1. You can't win the US presidency as a Democrat if Black people don't like you. 2. Black people don't like Rahm Emanuel because of what he did after cops killed LaQuan McDonald.

Trump and Republicans are restarting their voter fraud misinformation machine ahead of the midterms. When I checked, Republican candidates were implicated in voter fraud at up to 38,000x the public’s rate. If they were actually worried about voter fraud, they’d start with their own candidates.

When trans creators are subtle, people dismiss the trans subtext as “headcanon.” When trans creators are loud and proud, people call it “obnoxious” and “cringe.” They just don’t want us to be represented in media at all. Because they don’t want us to exist at all.

I emailed Patrick Healy, assistant managing editor for standards and trust at NYT, to ask why their story about a House report with new details of rape allegations against the President of the United States included neither those details, nor a single use of the word "rape." archive.is/1s9AM

American news media is completely compromised.

Republicans every fucking day:

Brazilians recommending not to amplify right-wing talking points by dunking and quoting, as a winning strategy Next day, my tl is full of people dunking on rfk jr I literally would not have seen the bigotry if it wasn't for y'all repeating it. That's exactly what the Brazilians were on about!

Two former Governors of South Carolina - one from each party - have endorsed Democrat Annie Andrews who is running against Sen. Darline Graham R-SC

Some context around this, from a markets person. Historically in LatAm, leftist victories have led to sharp losses over the ~3 months after an election where the left wins. Stocks also typically underperformed into those victories. But 3y post-election, returns for leftists have been *higher*.

This morning I'll be expecting a number of congratulatory emails from my extended social network for the things I've said about this guy at my newsletter.

"For many, this is the video game industry’s “you reap what you sow” moment, proof that the AI tools many publishers have brazenly admitted to using are a double-edged sword." 🙃 Also, this Tim Sweeney guy is not an honest person. Great piece about an industry that is changing at breakneck speed:

Kushner took a $50 mn bribe from the Emiratis to orchestrate the firing of Rex Tillerson as secretary of state, according to Matt Cole's new book, Princes and Thieves, out today. To be clear, this is a serious felony, if true.

The lessons from Brazil and Serbia? Don't concede one inch of ground to the far right. Don't appease. Don't triangulate. Don't grovel. Don't say they have "legitimate concerns". Mobilise your base, and fight them with all the democratic means at your disposal.
