If you were in Congress, what would you do for the State of the Union? What do you think Dems should do?

NEWS ANALYSIS: Gentiles may not recognize it, but Zelenskyy is using an ancient and sacred Jewish facial expression here It roughly translates to "Y'all hear what this fucking shvantz just said? Does he think a Yid won't cut a bitch?"

I am asking one thing of you all: do not voluntarily detransition. That is what they want most.

Exceptions being small, local businesses. We want to keep supporting those ones. Amazon, Walmart, gas companies, etc.? Fuck those guys

"To date, it seems as if Donald Trump has launched more attacks upon trans youth — less than .001 of the population — than on any other group in American society" How are these vulnerable children dealing with it? Let them tell you: www.thecut.com/article/tran...

The argument at the end will get the attention, but in the conversation in full Ze says what everyone knows: there is no peace without security guarantees. And the US side is just off in its own world having twitter-inspired US-centric conversations divorced from that reality.

So excited to hear they're making a sequel to Conclave in which someone figures out how to automate the process, called Autoclave. There's already a great theme song by @themountaingoats.bsky.social

Flood the phone lines. These politicians are out to get a bigger check. Flood those lines. They aren’t Moses.

Asked a friend how it's going and they responded "bad but I'm used to it" devastating

"It’s craven. He’s basically fearful of Trump." Marty Baron, former executive editor of the Washington Post, interprets what Jeff Bazos announced this morning. open.substack.com/pub/zeteo/p/...

The recent car crashes that destroyed two businesses’ parklets highlight the negative impacts of cars on our city and the need for policy and infrastructure to help people shift trips from cars to bikes and public transit as well as physical infrastructure to protect parklets.

The Presidio is an iconic, efficiently run, successful park & economic engine. It’s a true gem. That means Trump wants to knock it down. It’s just how he rolls. We’re having none of it. Nor are the amazing small business owners who make the Presidio the success that it is. Back off, Mad King.

Saw this headline and I must admit my first response was “who wouldn’t avoid the wealthy areas?” I may be biased. You’d think coyotes prefer big backyards and lower densities of humans in wealthy areas, but they’re more likely to be persecuted there: www.latimes.com/00000195-400....

Much talk at Chase tonight of the Adrian Dantley / Mark Aguirre trade, re Jimmy Butler. 🏀 #warriors

Consequential day for litigation: - Judge in WA blocks Trump's indefinite suspension of the refugee program. - Judge in DC grants motion to enforce TRO, requires USAID to pay out anything required prior to Feb. 13 by tomorrow - Judge in DC converts a TRO blocking OMB funding freeze to a longer PI.

Something to understand about the nazi salute nonsense is that back during Reconstruction there was a cottage industry of Klan denial, where Democratic papers would pretend the KKK didn't exist or point to their stupid rituals as evidence they were a Republican delusion or otherwise harmless

I love that Apple’s stock jumped a bit when this news broke. apnews.com/article/appl...

Medicaid covers nursing home care, home health care, pregnancy care & post-childbirth care for millions of Americans. It often covers dentures for people who’ve lost their teeth. Trump & the GOP are trying to slash & burn these health services. All to pay for tax cuts for the rich Truly shameful

Sorta like the "I am Spartacus!" bit, but, in a more real sense, absolutely nothing like the "I am Spartacus!" bit

Over 50 episodes of MTV Unplugged, many unavailable for over two decades, are now streaming on Paramount+ → cons.lv/feYgIU

Democrats really need to *read the fucking room* with the histrionic spam texts asking for donations these days

In San Francisco congestion pricing is unlikely to generate revenue of this magnitude, given downtown office vacancy. But appropriately pricing curb parking for private cars could be very successful, IMO. We should try that.

We tried to focus mostly on the music, because the record itself is fantastic, but it’s also a beautiful expression of trans/queer joy and community in a time that has become increasingly perilous. The record has a broadly appealing sound that I think a lot of people would enjoy.

Gov Pritzker: "The root that tears apart your house’s foundation begins as a seed – a seed of distrust and hate and blame. The seed that grew into a dictatorship in Europe a lifetime ago didn’t arrive overnight. It started with everyday Germans mad about inflation and looking for someone to blame."

Heartbreaking: the worst LLM you know made a great point.

it's so cool how our options now are: - read publications owned and/or recently gutted by billionaires - make hunger games choices about which individuals/pubs we can afford to pay $50-$80 per year - struggle through a barrage of ads so insane it's like walking through Times Square on Friday night

Fuck, and may I emphasize, yeah
