I’m going to be taking a break from Bluesky for a while.
There’s a lot of good here but increasingly this place just makes me sad and angry and, increasingly, foul tempered and mean. It’s not good for me or anyone else.
I’ll check DMs occasionally but otherwise I’ll be away for a bit. Take care.

The federal government barred a list of 200 words and phrases from Head Start funding applications, including "disability" and "Black." Many of the banned words are explicitly referenced in the Head Start Act which was signed in 2007.

It's not a troll. They're serious.
I think the Greenland threat is a troll. I think.
But it would sure be nice for some senators and GOP house members to speak up now and make it clear that an attack on a nato ally would lead to removal from office

Turns out removing cars from dense urban areas by making them pay for all their deleterious impacts dramatically improves cities. We should be doing this in San Francisco. We have studied it endlessly. The time is now
Congestion pricing has improved commute times, bus speeds, noise levels, traffic safety, and businesses and restaurants have seen more profits. A runway success by any measure. And a model for other cities too. Gift 🎁 link: www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

Donald Trump's attack on vaccinations puts my immunologically compromised toddler at risk for several life-threatening diseases. But I also found some inaccuracies on Heather Cox Richardson's Substack. I have never felt more politically homeless.

It's a good park but some people seem to like losing and clinging to seething resentments more than they like spending peaceful time by the ocean in the company of their community so I suspect we haven't seen the last of them.
Now that opponents have lost two lawsuits and two elections, we invite them to accept the will of San Franciscans and work with us to make the most of our coastal park.

Mamdani's administration plans to use existing authority to go after companies illegally hiding fees. Right now, Ticketmaster is breaking NY state law by hiding fee breakdowns behind additional toggles and clicks. (same with Seatgeek, Stubhub etc.) Fees are supposed to be clear & conspicuous!

Listen to the panic of this moment as #ICE shoots into her car with kids inside.
How can anyone think that this is acceptable?
It's absolutely repugnant.
#ICELawlessness is happening again & again.
Just about every attack is being done without warrants on innocent people by anonymous thugs.

We all are going to be caring for a lot more now.

As if having cancer or an immune deficiency as a kid isn’t bad enough, those patients also can’t receive vaccines.
They rely on herd immunity, others doing the right thing.
It’s the same with infants who are too young to be vaccinated but are also at increased risk of morbidity and mortality.

Thinking about this some more: part of the current Republican attitude toward vaccinations seems to be rooted in the idea that "health is for healthy people". Chicken pox vaccine may not sound like a big deal, but for some kids (e.g. kids getting chemo) it can be deadly. (1/2)
