Every traffic death is a political choice, not an accident
“Helsinki hasn’t registered a single traffic-related fatality in the past year…Citing data that shows the risk of pedestrian fatality is cut in half by reducing a car’s speed from 40 to 30km/hr, city officials imposed the lower limit in most of Helsinki’s residential areas & city center in 2021.”
Helsinki just went a full year without a single traffic death
The capital city is Finnish’ed with car-related fatalities.

There is something deeply broken about an economy that creates trillionaires while people get buried under the cost of living and 42 million go hungry. The ultra-rich should realize that my Billionaires Income Tax, aimed at ensuring they pay their fair share, represents the moderate path forward.
Tesla shareholders have approved a pay package that could make CEO Elon Musk, already the world’s richest person, the world’s first trillionaire. https://cnn.it/43KZnkA

The biggest thing you need to protect yourself from on Halloween is automobiles and it’s not particularly close
one of my real beefs is that every year around halloween, thousands of articles are written about "how to protect yourself during halloween" that cite local police departments, talking about completely unfounded claims of dangerous halloween candy

Have your politics become so team jersey, so reflexively negative, that you view reasonable questions about a candidate as an attack on Your Team that helps the Enemy?
Do you enjoy false dichotomies like "it's either Platner or a genocidaire" as though the primaries aren't six goddamn months away?

Do you think Nazi iconography is a normal and acceptable thing for people who are male, rural, and/or military?
Has your (correct) oppposition and revulsion to the genocide Israel is currently enacting made antisemetic symbols feel more acceptable to you?

I very much wish the whole Platner tattoo thing hadn't happened, it would be much better if he really was an ideal progressive candidate able to take on Susan Collins
However, there is a huge silver lining here: we are learning a lot of important info about certain individuals and orgs on the left

People act like all the men are gone. The men are attending protests. The men are putting together scooters for their kids. The men are getting a set of turntables for the first time. The men are buying Nikes. The men are getting super into noir. They're not Nazis and they're fine. Keep your freaks.

My 67 year old father in law, who used to donate enough money to the Republican Party to get George W Bush Christmas cards, is out at a no kings protest in Ottawa County Michigan wearing his Elvis jumpsuit and holding a “no kings but Elvis” sign. It’s his first ever protest.

You can't raid and arrest everyone in an entire apartment building, or even legitimately get a warrant to do that, any more than you could for a whole neighborhood. That would be a general warrant. This is the most specific core the-British-did-it-to-us thing the Fourth Amendment is written to ban.
NEW — An estimated 40 people were taken by federal agents in an overnight raid in South Shore, a predominantly-Black neighborhood on Chicago’s South Side.
A couple who live nearby said they were shocked to see the enormous militarized raid in their community.
