Police don’t need more money. They have more than enough money.

We need to fund our jails to prevent overcrowding leading to extraordinary bail.

We need to fund our courts so we can provide the accountability AND access people deserve.

Are there any *good* teams in the NFL? I don’t think so. Listen as I explain why your favourite team - yes yours, is actually bad.
New Scrimshaw Show! I had @nathanielarfin.bsky.social on to talk through the NFL season so far in broad strokes, talk about the inner ring contenders, suss out who’s on the fringes, and label some teams pretenders in the grand scheme —> youtu.be/rwtcG-pGWMg?...

It's not going to happen for fairly obvious political reasons, but wouldn't it be fun if the LPC's best communicator was also a front-bencher, even if just for a fleeting moment.

Is there a TweetDeck clone for this platform yet? That would make Bksy the X-killer for me. I miss TweetDeck.
