The Disappearance of the Public Bench Benches are microcosms of an expansive debate about who belongs in urban public spaces. When they are removed or made uninviting, we lose more than just a place to rest.

"Benches are where optimistic visions of civic life meet reality. To remove them, or to curate who gets to sit, is to abandon the work of defining a civic ideal and determining, together, how to live up to it."

NEW: Why benches are slowly disappearing from public spaces — and why we need them back:

Mamdani faces pressure from progressive Jewish allies over 'buffer zone' veto decision - Jewish Telegraphic Agency Mamdani is going to let some Jewish leaders down with his decision. But which ones?

“Jews are literally ‘people of the book’ — our teachings tell us that open debate and discussion should be celebrated, not silenced,” said Rabbi Barat Ellman, a member of Jews for Racial and Economic Justice. “I urge Mayor Mamdani to veto the bill.”

It shocks me how many businesses still don’t seem to get that Trump’s cultural revolution did not actually happen

Yet another place I am banned from😔

The defense secretary is derisively comparing the media to a maligned group of rabbinic Jews, the FBI director is denying reports of drunkenness on the job, the vice president is in a two-front theological war with the pope and Erika Kirk, Donald Trump is still president, and gas is $4. Happy Friday

i think folks might be unfamiliar with "the pharisees", so let's make it clear: he's saying the jews run the press, and that they are conspiring to undermine the military. it's not just antisemitism, it's indistinguishable from nazism.

Hegseth saying “The Pharisee Press” should be a fully mask off moment. He is saying “The Jewish Press”. But Christians of all political stripes are so devoted to using Pharisees as a rhetorical prop that liberal Christians regularly insist it’s totally fine, no matter how many Jews try to explain.

If all you want is a D and you don't hold these people to higher standards, you'll get nothing but new Newsoms and Cuomos to stab you in the back. Purity testing to keep out predators is fantastic. More please.

And listen, people wouldn't be able to make accusations unless a candidate was already moving foul. If an accusation was all it took, it would have been used to bring down Mamdani or Obama before him.

If we do not clean house now before midterms, the very same lobbyists and destructive foreign agents propping up the Republican Party will simply pick shiny new Democrat mascots with hidden Nazi tattoos and a string of rape victims.

The timing is terrible for that woman but she bit the bullet because America has a very narrow window regarding survival. What is the point of a blue wave that ushers in fascists, rapists, and grifters devoid of morals?

There is no way in hell that America could survive a(nother) blackmailable rapist in charge of a state with an economy larger than several notable nations. Putin would adore a gift like that. He might even force the union to splinter.

I was trying to find the story about... an artist painted his version of an AI generated dupe of a photographer's distinct work and won a prize for it.

But there have been *so many* "AI generated art enters/wins competition" stories that it's legit buried in the search.

They used AI to generate what they liked, then re-drew it once they had the design. This is how everyone is going to be using it because it lets them say "Nothing generated by AI is in the game" which they think is the problem

You mean "draw" (generate). You used AI to draw (generate) them, right?

a woman is making a funny face and the words huh are on her face Alt: a woman is making a funny face and the words huh are on her face

Ok, I don't understand this AI disclosure.

"Character designs are created manually by artists and writers, but we use AI to speed up the drawing of details. We also use AI to speed up the drawing of backgrounds and planets. AI is not used to generate content directly during the game."

"speed up"?

Reading his ramblings aloud always drives home how much his brain has turned to pudding

It’s breathtaking

"what do you mean the president declared victory and then said iran wants to make a deal and then said no deal was necessary and that he won but that iran is being stubborn but that they're working together and gave him a nice gift", like it sounds utterly insane

there is a part of me that thinks that anyone who legitimately wants to cover trump has an impossible job because accurately describing what he says and does make you sound like a lying psychopath

This is truly how he needs to be covered by the MSM. But when you haven't paid attention as I haven't today, it reads insane.
