"Anti-woke" grifters and the so-called "REAL" Game Awards are political activists first and foremost whose primary goal is censorship, the harassment and the lucrative outrage content mill is secondary to this, the harassment and abuse being a means to and end, and the grifting being a nice bonus.

This had me cackling. Some replied to something I skeeted that was along the lines of "folks need to fall in line" or we can't unite. And no, we do not need to fall in line. We should not stop being critical. We should not be silent about experiences or harm being done for the sake of solidarity.

1. Breaking News: Donald Trump has signed an executive order targeting trans youth and teachers in schools who teach for them. It goes after "social transition" and threatens arrests. I will go through line by line, as I have the last 3 nights. Find the EO here: www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...

alright you wanna know how to support trans people? hire them. It's REALLY hard already for visibly trans people to get jobs, even before this shit. Support places that have trans people working front of house, and make sure owners know that's part of why you're there.

The year is 2035. I meet President AOC in the Oval Office. "You've done well," she says. "By telling men to dress gay, you've lowered the population rate by 90%, thereby reducing carbon emissions." She slides me a manilla envelope. I can now afford a home in a walkable neighborhood

Games Done Quick this year has been a great reminder that videogame culture - the actual culture, not aggrieved incels on Youtube - is pretty fucking cool. You'll never hear about some grifter raising millions for charity to riotous applause.

Yesterday in court a pro se litigant was going off on a tangent during their case in chief about things that had nothing to do with the issue. After a minute or two I finally said “Objection, relevance.” She looked at me and shouted, “EXCUSE ME SIR I AM TALKING AND YOU WILL NOT INTERRUPT ME!”

I can think of few more fitting illustrations of the wide-ranging lack of thought, common sense, and lived experience applied to bike infrastructure in US cities than this. A picture that's truly worth 1000 words @seankershaw.bsky.social

RPA mentioned in this video from @nerd4cities.bsky.social on YouTube! The last few years in Manhattan have seen the lowest travel speeds in the CBD since we started keeping track. With #CongestionPricing, we hope to see that change — and save time and $$ for NYers.

One aspect of this that can’t be emphasized enough: the relationship between traffic volume and traffic delay is nonlinear. A modest reduction in volume can create disproportionate congestion benefits

The lesson of Dostoevsky's Crime and Punishment is that the self is complex. We each have a multitude of desires – only about half of which are ax murdering.

Jeff Bezos never wanted this cartoon to become public. He killed it, and as a result, pulitzer prize editorial cartoonist Ann Telnaes quit. Make sure everyone sees this cartoon.
