I would love to see ANY PARKING ENFORCEMENT AT ALL on sidewalks.

Tens of thousands of protestors are facing off against tens of thousands of police in the capital of India, as they demand the resignation of Chief Election Commissioner who has illegally deleted millions of people from India's electoral rolls. Biggest democracy story on the planet, not in BSky.

RTA has like a million of its own cops, but I'm still stuck behind a pickup truck in the bus lane.

Out of concerns about antisemitism, I’m joining my friend Robert Kraft in banning Israel critic Macklemore from my stadium. Here’s a link for Kanye West tickets at that same stadium. by Jerry Jones

TIL that in the car rental business "availability" is not the same thing as a car actually existing.

This right here. I am so tired of the "what could be causing all the weather drama?" in media. Fake uncertainty is a denialist tactic.

One way you know Dolly Parton lived life the right way: I don’t think anyone’s going to get fired for accurately quoting Dolly Parton today.

It strikes me as really unlikely that the "Epstein Files" do not yield evidence of crimes in state jurisdictions like NY or MD. Why are we seeing zero such prosecutions?

[slow clap] This is next level, beyond satire. Amazing.

Ketan is making several good points here, but to me the most important thing is that percentage targets are nonsense. The only metric that matters is *how rapidly we can reduce greenhouse gas emissions.* Physics doesn't care about the ratios or the increase in renewables.

Incredibly weird sports talk chatter on the announcement speakers on RTA tonight. It's like someone hacked the inputs to run this two-minute repeating loop about the Guardians sucking?

I want everyone to see this absolute gem.

There's something that is so much more persuasive and inspirational about just knowing what your business is and being about it, rather than chasing around people who are opposed to any changes and openly pandering to them by validating their worst impulses. Is this obvious? It seems obvious.

I don't ask for much, but can everyone please understand that EST = Eastern Standard (as opposed to Daylight) Time? So it's nonsensical to tell me a meeting is at 5pm EST today. That's not a thing.

This needs to be 8 hours of an actual blind guy reciting the poem from memory or I call horse shit.

When I worked in WaPo Opinions in 2017-2018, senior editors specifically told junior editors not to factcheck Marc Thiessen and other MAGA columnists, otherwise they wouldn’t be able to publish anything by them at all, and “we need them for intellectual diversity.”

Hell of a thing to hear climate denialists yelling at Canada for the smoke which, just like greenhouse gases, ignores international borders.

It’s bad enough that they made the heroine of the Odyssey black, but making the author of the Odyssey blind? Come on!

This right here. It's exhausting. It's dangerous to real people. It directly reinforces fascism.

around 55% of Americans live in a metro area of at least a million, it is true that the median voter has no degree and the things that excite assistant professors will possibly not excite them, that doesn't mean you need to engage in the Joe the plumber cosplay, just have some basic self awareness

I don't NEVER fly, but I've passed up many opportunities for cool trips solely because of the carbon burn. And I literally never fly to Chicago / DC / NYC because Amtrak burns less carbon than air travel. So this fuckery pisses me off SO much. ONE JERKFACE is canceling 100x of what I conserved.

It's a hell of a thing to hear pundits and politicians shit-talking current refugees using the same bigoted tropes they attacked my Irish great-grandparents with. They don't just hate the Haitians, Somalis, and Congolese. They hate every decent person who is struggling.

BREAKING MS NOW: FBI agents on Thursday raided the Cleveland offices of the Ohio Organizing Collaborative — a pro-democracy organization that helps register voters in that state, according to three people briefed on the search.

Yesterday I had occasion to drive through a big chunk of Strongsville OH and wow, there were at least two very prominent fascist banners on a semi-main street. It's wild out there in the suburbs.
