Hey #burqueskies #nmpol if you forgot to vote for @mayorkeller.bsky.social’s re-election you can probably get to a polling place by 7 pm, they’re all over, and then if you get in line by 7, stay in line

I just put my phone down for a second and heard a strange voice say, "let's see if you can make sacrifices!"...

Reader, it was a Duolingo chess lesson that opened itself on my phone!! 😱🙀

My not-even-1yo just tried dipping her pacifier in my coffee and putting it back in her mouth 😭 thankfully I was drinking out of a travel mug so she might’ve gotten barely a drop at most but what a creative innovation, mama so proud

Update: @atherton.bsky.social listened to The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald so much over the last two months that 2yo calls it “The November song” and 1yo calms down immediately when she hears it

Democratic politicians need to stop accepting Trump’s white nationalist premise that immigration is bad and proudly and loudly make a positive case for why America’s identity and history as a nation of immigrants is so important.

A whole lot of cities saw backlashes against density in and around the 1970s.

Downzoning: apartments that previously got built were no longer allowed.

This happened in Toronto, Vancouver, San Francisco, Los Angeles, and San Francisco.

Lots more cities. Probably wherever you live, dear reader!
In 1978, the San Francisco Board of Supervisors downzoned the city, banning multifamily homes in many areas and sparking a decades-long affordability crisis.

47 years later, on a 7–4 vote, they passed the Family Zoning Plan to finally begin to undo that mistake.

The times, they are a-changin’!

I want a movie and no fewer than three sequels.
“Have Yourself A Merriam Little Christmas”

Merriam, a career-oriented lexicographer from the city, returns to her small town for the holidays and meets Webster, a ruggedly handsome librarian, who shows her the true DEFINITION of Christmas.

I'm so tired of measles.

I'm also tired of people using needle shots on stories like this.

Show what measles looks like.
