The irony of RFK jr mentioning how much money was spent on chronic illness treatment under his uncle‘s presidency... a man who famously struggled with and spent a lot of money on treatment for his numerous chronic illnesses 🤦♀️
I took a bike, two busses, a train and a plane today all today and dang… whenever I find myself in the gas vs. ev chats I just want to scream: public mass transit is the actual answer!!

Buying fire engines that fit the city you want is cheaper than building your entire city to fit the fire engines you have. This is true even after taking staffing costs into account.
Never forget, for many years Uber insisted it would reduce traffic in cities. Instead, Uber drivers cruise without passengers 40% of the time. Uber & Lyft no longer claim they reduce traffic. They now admit they increase congestion.
Now boosters lie about driverless cars. Don’t believe them either.
Spring has sprung and Easter is just around the corner, so it’s time for my yearly reminder: if you own cats, DO NOT bring lilies ANYWHERE into your house. Even just breathing in the pollen or drinking the water from a vase can be fatal to kitties.
NEW: For the first time, ProPublica has been able to quantify how many U.S. citizen children have been directly affected by Trump’s immigration crackdown: more than 11,000 kids had a parent detained — and that’s an undercount. 1/ 🧵

Bad Bunny with a powerful anti-ICE speech at the Grammys 🔥🔥🔥🔥
"Before I say thanks to God, I’m going to say ‘ICE out.’ We’re not savages, we’re not animals, we’re not aliens. We are humans and we are Americans."

If you care about what's happening in Venezuela, stop driving. Stop buying gas. Fuck cars and support public transportation in your city. That's how you fight fascism.
And this is why the corporate class shut down Teen Vogue.

Regardless of what civil infractions anyone commits, they’re still people entitled to protections under the bill of rights. Please refrain from using such dehumanizing language in the future, it is not only harmful but factually incorrect and weakens your argument.
People can’t be “illegal” and Google is free
A reminder that anything recorded on a device like this AI "friend" could be used against you — by hackers, private companies, or the government.

my father-in-law is a “I know a guy” Guy. sadly all the old Guys are aging out of the Guy Economy.

“They cut speed limits, changed street design, removed space for cars… Now it appears that work is paying off. #Oslo & #Helsinki are reaping the rewards of committed action on making their roads safer, reducing pedestrian fatalities to zero last year.” #VisionZero #SpeedKills

Native communities are numerous and diverse, we are not a monolith. The Buffalo soldiers were sent to antagonize communities in the Southwest & Plains, who had zero to do with the 5 Southern Tribes or chattel slavery. The campaigns were about settler colonialism/empire expansion, not racial justice
