"are you a boy or a girl?"
i am smelling like a rose that somebody gave me on my birthday deathbed.
i am smelling like a rose that somebody gave me on my birthday deathbed.
"are you a boy or a girl?"
i am the scent of burning leaves on an autumn night. i am the wind shaking bare trees. i am the shadows cast by moonlight. i am the raven's cry. i am the rose and i am its thorns. i shake the very earth with my footfalls.

A roadside vertical post aka bollard painted as a blue octopus with tentacles extending across the pavement, using the curb and cobbles to suggest movement. I love the use of multiple colors and the eyes & brows are wonderful!! 😁

there is a very specific kind of nerd jd vance is uniquely well-suited to drive to aneurysm — and about 90% of my best friends fit the type.
if vance becomes president all my loved ones are either going to die or become ayahuasca addicts.

In addition to being straight-up Nazi rhetoric, the "undocumented immigrants caused the housing crisis" lie seems designed to drive me, personally, insane.

🔥"Kids are people! We must plan for their movement, just like all nondrivers."🔥
One more thing. When I wrote about this study showing one-third of Americans don't drive, people were messaging me saying this cannot be true for LA.
In LA County *23 percent* of the population is under 16. Kids are people! We must plan for their movement, just like all nondrivers. Hope that helps!

Highly recommend diving into NRDC's study on car access, which @keawilson.bsky.social wrote about here: usa.streetsblog.org/2025/10/02/report-16-million-have-no-car-access-at-all
Where Nadir was killed, 14% of LA households are car-free. But the infrastructure does not match that reality

this is worse than that time david brooks said he was bisexual for judaism and christianity
Rep. Sarah McBride: "It goes both ways. A big tent is bisexual. It goes to the left and the right . And that starts with us being kind to one another, being respectful to one another and being welcoming to one another."

istg mayor Boswer is horny for hurting homeless people
While feds are cutting support for housing, so is DC.
There is no city funding for 2026 for permanent supportive housing for individuals experiencing homelessness. Shelters are at 95% capacity. Other voucher programs are shrinking, pushing people back into homelessness, including families.

This is far worse than anyone expected.
Trump's HUD plan would cut *two-thirds* of permanent housing and push as many as 170,000 formerly homeless people back onto the street—redirecting funds to work mandates, forced treatment, and encampment sweeps.
All as mass internment camps are being built.

i need people to understand that nimby policy wins are largely responsible for both the housing shortage AND forced institutionalization of our neighbors
Sure housing saves lives, but the NIMBYs hate it so let's throw unhoused people in concentration camps instead.

When Maryland lawmakers return to Annapolis to work on the next state budget, they’ll have to close a budget hole of $1.4 billion — a significantly tougher challenge than they’d anticipated.
