Man, when you compare the bravery of every day Minnesotans to the overpaid cops it’s astounding

Mamdani: If the NYC apartment you keep solely for bi-yearly affairs with your mistress costs over 5 million dollars, you gotta pay more tax
NYPD officer who’s been on disability since 2006 because he stomped too hard on a lady during an arrest and fucked up his ankle: This is a travesty
Yeah, that. They had a deadline to get the raises and retro done and they missed it. UE filed grievances this week
If you cannot accept that the pope is the head of the church and knows more about faith than you’ve learned in your three years at Fascist Academy for Backwards Theology, then maybe converting to Catholicism is not the right move for you.
As of this morning, SFUSD is officially violating the terms of their latest contract with UESF. We need new management and that starts with electing Brandee Marckmann in June.
Also, SparkSF is a giant scam and I bet all $16.4m it supposedly raised last year that the district rerouted the disappeared OpenAI contract through it
Staff Cuts to SFUSD Schools: Sorry, remaining staff will have to do the work
Staff Cuts to SFUSD District Office: We need to hire even more consultants
The reason we don't believe the district's insistence that they're broke is that they don't act like it
And Rick here knows, because the government messed up the lucrative health care fraud that built his fortune
When waymo did that press run last year about how its cars were getting more assertive what that meant was they're much more willing to hit pedestrians on purpose
Here's a waymo in the pedestrian crosswalk I had to whack because it started creeping forward again against the light
I've seen her express diametrically opposed positions on issues to different audiences. Not like shading an opinion, like being for something and against it depending on who asks. I know what Brandee believes.
I mean, there was a COPE meeting with all three candidates and I guess that's how it went but I'm voting for Brandee and telling all my friends. Not only bc Brandee is a far better candidate but also bc VC was extremely problematic in her last campaign
i hope the white house sends vance to campaign for Reform in britain
The dog looks embarrassed to be there
Idk man if you're going to celebrate your state-sponsored violence you could at least have an aesthetic better than "permanently eight years old and also evil"

anyone who says people opposing data centers are just nimbys need to stop echoing industry propaganda and see what it’s actually like to live near one
Every single one of the astronauts who went to the moon and back on Artemis II was educated at a public school.
Thinking of the teachers who poured into Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, Christina Koch, and Jeremy Hansen tonight. You helped send a kid to the moon!

Me, an atheist: Your holiness I stand ready to join the crusade against these heretics
For a sense of the scale of the federal occupation of the Twin Cities metro this winter...
Chicago and LA were too big so they tried picking on somewhere smaller.
They were thick on the ground here but they still left in disgrace.

“Studies suggest youths are more empathetic and less narcissistic than in the past, as well as more open-minded and inclusive. Drug use is down, youth violence has dropped and teen pregnancies have declined.” It’s almost like panic abt kids’ wellbeing serve existing adult demands for control.
A lot of speculation about how things got so Stupid and Evil and I think one reason is we've collectively been too tolerant of Stupid and Evil for too long
this is a sweet story til you realize it's yet another totally uncritical account of the widely debunked method of facilitated communication, this time with his mother, who just happened to work as a story analyst before being her son's aid in his MFA program
"The process of watching this argument evolve has been, I think, a demonstration of the dangers of cherry picking with an ideological agenda," says Shugerman. "I call it Control F-around and find out."
Last word to @jedshug.bsky.social rightly so
Walking thru the “Ultra Normie” No Kings rally in my extremely rural, white town and there are Patagonia wearing moms carrying signs that say “DEAD PEDOPHILES DONT REOFFEND” and “ICE GETS THE WALL” and I hi fived an old guy with a sign that said MY DADDY FOUGHT NAZIS AND SO WILL I” this is wild
we are better than the worst of us want us to believe
Definitely something to bring up in SFUSD BoE public comment, since this remains their excuse for their refusal to recruit, hire, and retain educators
I’m at ICE HQ
“I am political,” Ms. Rachel told me of her new effort to free kids from ICE detention.
“It’s political to believe that children are worthy of love … and that our care shouldn’t stop at what we look like, our family, at our religion, at a border. Mr. Rogers was very political.”
Fuck ICE but also fuck the press for feeding us the "to help with long lines!!!" bullshit because SFO has not been impacted at all by the partial shutdown. (It has contractors doing security and they're getting paid.) You only send ICE to SFO to do goon squad shit, which was always the goal of this.
the only solution to nostalgia is revenge
