Walkable cities, academia, and hot parenting takes with statistics, mostly in NW DC/Ward 2+3. Occasionally in real urban centers like Bethesda or Arlington.

It is funny for sure. The reason for the difference is that the closer analogy here is between Columbia's board and ABC's executives, who responded similarly. Kimmel is more like Columbia faculty who have resisted their bosses' capitulation. The recurring pattern is: management cowers, labor fights.
It is really funny that Jimmy Kimmel Live showed more moral fortitude and adherence to a system of values than Columbia University

Just to be clear, the Left doing "cancel culture" means they exercise Free Speech by stop inviting you to happy hour bc you won't stop saying the n-word; the Right doing "cancel culture" means they illegally use the Government to punish you. Left is pro-1A, Right is anti-1A, always has been.
After years of complaining about cancel culture, the current administration has taken it to a new and dangerous level by routinely threatening regulatory action against media companies unless they muzzle or fire reporters and commentators it doesn’t like.
Let’s be clear about what happened to Jimmy Kimmel
Trump’s most brazen attack on free speech yet.

COLBERT: You warned everyone…he would prosecute political enemies, cut Medicaid, alienate our allies, give tax cuts to the rich. I know you're not here to say 'I told you so' but would you like to?
HARRIS: You're correct. I did predict a lot of that. But what I did not predict was the capitulation.

Always look at major injuries, not just deaths. (left-YTD2025) (right-YTD2024). Pedestrian and cyclist injuries are up in DC. Drivers/passengers are down.

In @slate.com , I explained why Zohran Mamdani’s proposal for fare-free buses is a bad idea for NYC.
The cost would be enormous, the benefits meh, and the downsides real.
If Mamdani can find $1 billion/year to improve transportation, there are many better ways to spend it.
