Hi new followers, I post a lot about:
- Bikes
- Urbanism
- Social Justice
- Disability and Neurodivergence
- Littlespace
- Trans Issues
- Kink and Queer Sexuality
- Sex Work
I do post lewds/NSFW, but tag them so people who don't want to see that can filter it.

By a 41-7 vote, the Washington Senate just directed the state's building code council to adopt updated regulations for elevators in buildings with up to six stories or 24 units, "minimally sized to meet federal accessibility requirements."

BTW IMO, an underrated element of transgender venom against Gavin Newsom is his cruelty to the homeless. I think general online Dem populations may see homelessness as an abstract issue whereas trans people are very likely to see it as a potential future or current reality for ourselves/our friends

you know, it still seems like it should be an even bigger issue that the president has been sending armed forces to kidnap and assault people in an ethnic cleansing campaign, with a specific geographic focus on regions that didn't vote for him in the last election

Bonding with folks last night over our shared love of vaccines as a new father talked about keeping his newborn safe in a time of measles resurgence, and thinking about this.

After housing, this is the next big zoning reform: the right to do business. Always found it odd that the USA, supposedly the land of the free market, makes it the hard if not outright illegal to open a business in most places.
Like many other planning failures, this one's also rooted in racism.

The al pastor taco truck at sleepy North Berkeley BART is booming every night with neighbors, cyclists and families. Imagine what we could do with fully legalized street vending citywide.

I’d love to see journalism exploring the mass deletion of SWs off X in conjunction with the rise of grok’s porn bots. There’s a certain tech bro fantasy of AI as a tool of economic deprivation against SWs. The deep resentment at the financial independence of online SW seems to have come to a head.

Boston’s police oversight agency issued subpoenas to officers with misconduct allegations. Only three complied. - The Boston Globe
It remains to be seen how OPAT will respond to the officers who didn’t comply with its subpoenas.
