Who’s pulling the strings?

Zohran Mamdani is calling for city-owned grocery stores. NYC already has them. The idea has broad support from progressives, while some critics warn against “radical socialism.” But New York already has city-owned grocery stores.

this is THE thing to read on the fall of the SRO, and how it changed our cities

A sterling example of how "it's complicated," about basic issues of justice that are not in fact complicated at all, keeps enabling worsening fascism.

So... what's Paramount's plan for when Trump gets mad at 60 Minutes next weekend and files another ridiculous lawsuit? Fork over another $16 million? More? Or is there some double super-secret annex in the settlement where he pinky promises not to do that?

Let's gooooooo. They are not unbeatable. They're only unchallenged.

Workers across the country are dying horribly from heat stroke as #OSHA continues hearing over issuing a strong heat standard

These deaths could have been prevented with a strong OSHA heat standard. Will the Trump administration continue to let workers die?

ChatGPT-ass presidency

Enigmatic lizards somehow survived near Chicxulub asteroid impact The night lizards may have been the only terrestrial vertebrates that survived in the region of the asteroid impact 66 million years ago, which led to the extinction of non-avian dinosaurs

There's nothing holy about writing discrimination into the law.

I have a lot of concerns about AI, but millions of people seem to be using ChatGPT without spiralling into madness over the span of a couple months, which kinda makes this seem like a PEBKAC situation.
