This is textbook Warriors offense (also probably a foul by Brooks on that)

This man is murdering scores of the poorest, most vulnerable people on earth by slashing USAID and PEPFAR. Literally the richest man in the world taking food from starving children and medicine from dying babies. If hell exists, it is too good for him. No punishment could be enough for his evil.

The Raiders are jumping into free agency early, signing former Bengals OL Alex Cappa, source says. Some OL depth.

The #Raiders are signing former #Bucs and #Bengals G Alex Cappa, who was recently released by Cincinnati, per @RapSheet. New Las Vegas GM John Spytek drafted Cappa in Tampa Bay.

sure, mitch mcconnell cynically masterminded the plot to destroy the US constitution and american democracy, but you have to at least credit him with lifting up his own constituents in Kentucky to make it one of our richest and most prosperous... (touching earpiece) wait I'm getting new information

this haptic display absolutely rocks. basketball is for everyone.

do you know how bad you have to be as president to make the Luka to Lakers thing the 2nd dumbest trade related news of the last 24hrs

why CA has a housing shortage: the cash-strapped city government of san diego, supposedly run by a YIMBY mayor and city council, is spending city resources during a housing crisis to try to BLOCK 200+ units of new housing in one of the city's wealthiest areas, including low/moderate income housing

It is very funny how one of the Supreme Court’s big issues is making it impossible to outlaw bribery because they like being bribed

If you want to understand the origins and solutions of the American homelessness problem, a really important starting point is to understand that the problem mostly exists in places where *there are lots of jobs and the labor market is really strong,* not in economically depressed areas.

if we had caught wind of Saddam’s Republican Guard doing shit like this even once it would have been paraded across the evening news repeatedly as proof of the regime’s brutality and a justification for war

Small business owner claims about the effects of bike lanes tell you more about the reactionary and outdated values the petit bourgeoisie class that owns most small businesses in America hold than it does about the impact of bike lanes.

i'm sorry, this is an area where i am just completely unwilling to compromise. i think speeding and reckless driving are profoundly antisocial acts that are DEMONSTRABLY PROVEN to result in TENS OF THOUSANDS OF DEATHS every year in car and pedestrian crashes. this seems bad to me.

The SSI asset limit is one of the most bullshit, punitive, damaging restrictions in existence.

I used to see this in DC and Alexandria too, and it's been borne out in studies in Toronto and Berlin: business owners, who usually drive to work, *vastly* overestimate how many of their customers drive in.
