NEW STORY // Op-Ed: Convert Street Parking to Trees to Hit Seattle Canopy Goals Sooner www.theurbanist.org/2025/02/22/o...

Give crews the opportunity to move snow more quickly & make it easier for essential services to attend to streets, #annarbor, by moving your car from on-street parking today. Related: For real-time updates & a hearty giggle at the plow names, check out this map: snowplowmap.a2gov.org #teamhansnowlo

Just a reminder with more snow coming. #a2council

I signed this petition requesting that Stadium Blvd in Ann Arbor be made safer. Our city has committed to Vision Zero, yet we're still so far from achieving it. Please consider signing: actionnetwork.org/petitions/sa... #a2council

STOP DOING CENTER OF THE CITY #A2Council

I love this - what better use can ANYONE come up with? The library does so much good. Give them more space to do it. And then put housing on top. win-win!

Opinion | Elon Musk was just acting out the kinetic motions of a Nazi salute, without euphemism. #a2council

Two more crashes on South Main St in Ann Arbor. #A2Council has committed to achieving Vision Zero this year. We’re off to a great start. Maybe next year? Can we get some concrete? Pedestrian refuge islands perhaps? Traffic calming?

ooooh!

It's a great idea for *several* reasons. Couldn't agree more. #a2council

Let's all drink with our cats, shall we?

Jimmy Carter helped build 4,390 homes after leaving the White House. He understood that a secure home (in whatever form) is more than an asset or a commodity to be owned or profited from, but a spiritually grounding necessity for every family to have. www.washingtonpost.com/history/2024...

I ship it too.

Crashes in Ann Arbor are up. TheCity's efforts to improve safety are failing short. We need to do more. #a2council For more information, about any of the crashes, go to crashesinannarbor.org to see some excellent investigation and suggestions on how to improve areas of concern.

The fact that 70 percent of Ann Arbor voters opposed Props C and D shows us how many voters must have been bribed by Oxford. #a2council

So in tomorrow's meeting, #a2council is considering major action on street plowing, but very little for sidewalks. I sent an email today: docs.google.com/document/d/1... If you believe sidewalks are critical transportation corridors, consider emailing your CMs and/or signing up for public comment!

I'm shocked & saddened to learn of the sudden passing of our County Treasurer Catherine McClary. She was a treasured colleague who—among other things—led efforts to prevent eviction & foreclosures. She fought to right past wrongs related to redlining & discriminatory lending. /1

I genuinely don't think I can handle the next four years of New York Times headlines. Kill me now.

Lake Michigan is warm, warm, warm. #lakemichigan #climate #climatechange

pls buy the US Senate, the onion

I don't care if it's true or not.

I think the best part may be that you can’t tell if The Onion has taken over yet.

Reminding folks how ICE raids impacted families here in Washtenaw County, and how children separated at the border were sent all the way to Michigan detention centers. Buy this book for yourself, Michigan reps, and loved ones because we’ve learned nothing. www.press.jhu.edu/books/title/...

the important question isn’t “did Harris lose because the left is too woke?” it’s “why isn’t Donald Trump in federal prison?” We’re being subjected to lectures about politics by the people who held all of the power and let this dipshit slip through their grasp.

BREAKING | Fearing a spate of rage-induced fake city notices posted on their homes with industrial glue, Ardmoor area residents try to distract Elizabeth Nelson by pitching in to upgrade her TikTok account to Platinum Premium. #a2council

TURN THIS UP! 📢📢📢

"Is there a way to carry out mass deportations without splitting up families?" "Of course there is. Families can be deported together." If you thought citizenship would save you from their racism, you got played.

Valencia this morning. A jaw-dropping 343 mm of rain was recorded in just 4 hours yesterday, between 4:30pm and 8:30pm.

Opinion | I was a lifelong Demoncrat and Burns Park resident. But then AAPS had an unplanned early release for a Harris rally that my nanny is attending, so now I'm voting for Donald Trump for a third time. #a2schoolboard

It is alarming how many people are easily fooled by glossy flyers full of misinformation funded by landlords and republicans that are illegally glued to public property at midnight by disgruntled former #a2council members. This is not ok.

Charlamagne tha god: "When somebody questions Kamala Harris’ blackness, you all will have roundtable discussions about that, asking that question, how can we not having roundtable discussion is asking is Donald Trump a fascist."

Mom's Spaghetti!!

This is a sign you'll see in some North MI counties. #presidentialelection #notdisturbingatall

saw my first Harris yard sign, yellow vinyl, clearly wrinkled and dug out of storage from the 2020 primary. Can you even imagine the thrill of getting to casually say to a family member "oh, looks like we'll need this after all. Looks like I'm not a 'hoarder.' looks like I'm simply prepared. looks l

Powerful stuff.
