Photos: NYPD Arrests Protesters Blocking ICE Vans Transporting Detained Immigrants

Might be a good time to start wearing a mask again y’all!

unions: they get the job done

Design vehicles to fit cities. Don’t design cities to fit vehicles.

SF folks what are some of the best thrift stores in the city, and if you say anything in the Haight im ignoring you

We are heartbroken to share that there has been another fatality on our streets, this time at the intersection of 10th Street and Folsom Street in the SoMa neighborhood. You can read our statement at walksf.org/releases.

Nobody’s buying it

Bullshit. This is what BART is like on my ride right now: Clean, quiet, perfectly climate controlled. And I’m getting home more quickly and much more enjoyably than if I had driven. Public transit has challenges, and these all could be easily addressed with funding from the federal government.

(context: ren is short for arden) @fernkhahn.com sent me this and wow I am winning trans today

In you, there are two cats

@moreperfectunion.bsky.social did a great segment on driverless trucks. on how our roads arent ready for them, how they will upend thousands of jobs and are severly underregulated we've already seen the same things happen with the advent of AVs taking over the public transit and taxi space

Huge win today for transit riders, accessibility, and the climate. Cannot wait to get this permitting process firmed up and help get benches at all 300+ bus stops in the city of Richmond

“Americans suffer from magical transit thinking. They believe that transit agencies can operate high-quality, comprehensive service at minimum funding levels…and that fares from mostly poor riders can make up for the lack of steady public subsidies.” www.chicagobusiness.com/opinion/cta-...

Formerly homeless residents thought they had homes forever when they moved into permanent supportive housing a couple years ago. Now, they’re being moved out. The city says they won't lose their spots, but residents have doubts. via @miss-elenius.bsky.social missionlocal.org/2025/05/sf-p...

BREAKING: The Labor Department has withdrawn guidance that discourages bosses from offering crypto in workers’ 401k plans. The Trump family, and much of the administration, is heavily invested in crypto. The crypto industry also spent about $238 million on the 2024 elections.

from the bottom of my heart fuck gavin newsom

Holy shit - Gavin Newsom has clarified that this goes even further. The transgender runner will compete "in her own category." California is basically instituting a sports ban. www.kcra.com/article/cali...

FUCK YOU COWARD PIECE OF SHIT

“It’s deeply disappointing that instead of committing to end its unfair labor practice...the Board of Regents chose to have peaceful protesters arrested.” Thank you to our allies & community members for putting your bodies on the line in our campaign to reset UC’s priorities. #UC #ResetUCPriorities

Highlights from April's ridership report: • April ridership ended 3.1% above budget and 12.1% higher than a year ago. • Year-to-date through April, ridership is tracking at 1.5% above budget. • April saw three days hit 200K+, the first time since last September. www.bart.gov/sites/defaul...

Would like to see a law mandating that jurisdictions build at least 2 low-income units for every person they displace. You don’t get to create a crisis, punish those who suffer from it, then not solve it.

we should have had road diets in SOMA decades ago when it began to be redeveloped for residential use. the second best time is now

sick of neutral colors in interior design. we need to move on to partisan colors

The news of yet another death on our streets lands heavily on my heart today. The dominant environment permits and encourages speed, impatience and inattention by motorists who are increasingly driving heavier, deadlier vehicles. www.sfchronicle.com/sf/article/p...

BREAKING: A federal judge has blocked the Trump administration’s plan to transfer the national $1.6 trillion student loan portfolio away from the Department of Education to the Small Business Administration.

NEW — I obtained the full State Dept. memo Politico reported on earlier today that calls for a pause on the scheduling of interviews for certain foreign student visas: www.politico.com/news/2025/05...

New boss just dropped 😻

A truly damning graph for the US. As other high income countries (many of which have per-capita GDPs half of the US) continued to work on health, we stopped caring enough and started to backslide.

Good morning, NYC. We have some very exciting news to share.

Goodbye Fanime

Just had a super energizing convo with a stranger in San Jose about the need to fund public transit. People are angry when you say that Newsom’s cutting our funding, they just have no idea it’s happening until you tell them. Tell everyone you know to call Newsom and demand funding for transit.

NEW: Dem Senators Kelly and Ossoff just introduced legislation to ban ALL of Congress from trading stocks. I support this 100%. It should be the law already.

Normal Green Line (Berryessa- Daly City) service has resumed. All BART lines are once again running.

Nextdoor is great for people saying awful shit with their whole chest and their names attached

say their names cemetery - george floyd, amir locke, kobe heisler, breonna taylor

@alfredtwu.com stopped by the BART booth at Fanime today!
