The only reason people think LA is a postapocalyptic nightmare is because of the X algorithm. An unreality machine.

Why is the penalty for riding SF public transit without paying higher than the penalty for parking at a meter without paying?
If you ride Muni and don’t pay, the fine is $130. If you park in a metered spot and don’t pay, the fine is $99. This doesn't make sense, especially in a "Transit First" city

“yea honestly transit is gonna keep being fucked up” is just what you want to hear from the guy in charge of fixing it
As Newark Liberty International Airport struggled with technological disruptions and staffing shortages, Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy warned on Sunday that more U.S. airports could face similar disruptions this summer.

You know who could read out the identities of every ICE agent and put that paperwork in the public record? Literally any Congressperson

It's hard to adequately describe how scary it is to watch mainstream political journalists barely push back against a sitting U.S. president accepting a $400M plane from a foreign government that would literally be designated as an emergency command-and-control center during a nuclear war.

It is important to recognize that a president who takes bribes and a Congress that lets that slide was itself a Constitutional crisis.
Banning bribery was so important, the Founders had the Constitution forbid it three times, including as the only directly named impeachable offense besides treason.

The gift is bad enough on its own, but can we talk about how insane it is to use a foreign-gifted jet as *Air Force One*
Air Force One has a lot of capability that a luxury jet simply doesn’t, and that’s before we even consider the obvious spying/bugging/security concerns.

I genuinely can’t get over this. Imagine serving your country through a brutal war only to have your memory DELETED by some boer piece of human filth, the richest man on earth, because his fragile ego collapses if we admit black people have contributed to America

American politics makes a lot more sense when you realize that the GOP is afraid of pissing off the GOP base, and the Dems are afraid of pissing off the GOP base, but neither party is afraid of pissing off the Dem base.

It’s awesome that Senate Democrats are voting to pass Trump’s budget while he’s at the DOJ calling them a bunch of criminals and saying newspapers and MSNBC should be illegal. That’s great, good job guys.

The Bay Area weather radar (KMUX) has been out of service for more than 24 hours now. An expensive broken part needs to be replaced and specially ordered, but that may not be possible due to ongoing freeze on government credit card spending, I’ve been told.
