You should watch this whole 2 minutes and feel the enormity of what this man is trying to tell you. And then think about how in the US you are called antisemitic for wanting this horror to stop.

They went above & beyond to make Palestinian voices are heard.
They made sure we don't miss anything happening when their electricity and internet are cut off. Instead of mourning and consoling their people, they spent their time holding their cameras to capture every moment.

“75 yrs of displacement, 56 yrs of occupation, & 16 yrs of the blockade... There is no military solution in Israel-Palestine, & deploying a Holocaust narrative in which an ‘evil’ must be vanquished by force will perpetuate an oppressive state of affairs” https://t.co/81GyIbXo9q

NYC schools got defunded to pay for these privacy disasters on wheels

@The_Suburbanist I think that we should make it as safe and easy as possible for people to be able to get around through multiple means of transport, so that they can live their lives without having to spend tens of thousands dollars on a vehicle that is also a leading cause of death.

Threads is unnecessary in terms of functionality--it's like Twitter in 2025 if Musk is still owner. We just want pre-Musk Twitter. And now we've got all these alt-realities Twitters, including Tw🤪tter itself, all of which have flaws and just add to the fragmentation. Oy.

This is Whitekanda, an area was created by a race war, white fear, the prospect of an all-Black state, stealing land from indigenous people & one of the greatest real estate scams of all time.

It is also the least racist place in America

Man, Twitter really had a 28-3 lead

It's been over 6 months since the takeover, but @Broderick has finally nailed what's happening with Twitter in one paragraph.

@AdamSchefter Like putting a Ferrari engine inside of a milk carton.

It’s official: Mikal Bridges, Spencer Dinwiddie, and Cam Johnson have played more minutes together on the Brooklyn Nets than Kyrie, KD, and James Harden did, per NBATV.

CRAZY 🤯

AI's superpower at this point seems to be its ability to produce B- content very fast.

"Optimism isn’t about saying things are good when they’re not, and it’s not about conveying some innate faith that things will work out. It’s about believing you and the people around you can steer toward the best outcome." — Bob Iger, CEO of Disney

[Jonathan Haidt @JonHaidt]

Here's the best metaphor I've seen for why the business model pioneered by Facebook has been so damaging. From Gerd Gigerenzer. If only they had put the effort into micropayments, rather than ad markets.

Climate receipts. When the average American moves to NYC, their residential + transportation emissions (the primary emissions you control through your location choice) decline by more than half.

We can do this on every transit system, too, not just NYC

Basic US housing completion stats are just devastating to NIMBY talking points--and honestly, it surprised me too.

America has never built so little housing per person since records began.

We haven't yet surpassed historic lows of pre-2009 *recessions*

This is scary.

ChatGPT has caught up with human intelligence.

If you ask it to list 20 great things about Ohio, it struggles and just mentions "it's affordable."

[Public Defenseless Podcast @PDefenselessPod]

Across state and local governments, the US spends roughly $6.5 billion on defending the rights of the accused. Meanwhile, we spend $123 billion on policing and another $82 billion on corrections. What do these budgetary choices say about our values?
