Turns out Mamdani's controversial proposal for government-run supermarkets isn't so novel. Other cities also are toying with the idea to bring fresh, affordable food to communities that do not have easy access to it. Good WSJ read (gift link)

"There are growing hints that Ward 4 Councilmember Janeese Lewis George will jump in as a Zohran Mamdani-like progressive, while At-Large Councilmember Kenyan McDuffie has openly mulled running as a business-friendly alternative. (Local developer Gary Goodweather is in the race already.)"
Mayor Muriel Bowser announced today that she won’t be seeking a fourth term in office next year.

This creates a huge opening for the 2026 D.C. mayoral race.

But first, what legacy will Mayor Bowser leave? @maustermuhle.bsky.social reflects here:

Been hoping for a book of Viktor Mácha’s work for years so this is all very 🤯 You’ll know that third image from The Internet although I don’t think Viktor ever gets a credit. Amazing. Hellish and beautiful at the same time.

Moments ago: tenants of the South Shore apartment building that federal immigration agents raided at the end of September held a presser to announce they're forming a tenants union.

They're demanding, among other things, sewage removal and heat and electricity restroration.

More updates TK.

Santa Fe is now the first city to tie the minimum wage to the cost of rent.

The Santa Fe City Council voted to raise its minimum wage from $15/hr to $17.50 by 2027 — but they also added another provision.

Future increases will factor in inflation, and the price of housing.
With new ordinance, Santa Fe becomes first city to tie minimum wage to rental costs

I like Bluesky for the most part but there is a part of me that wants a more high energy, art and design focused space to connect with others on.

Oh, I love this. A new species of sea anemone was discovered recently that parks itself on top of a hermit crab shell like a hat. It seems to feed partly off the crab's faeces, but it also excretes a hard shell that extends the crab's home. In return, it's carried around the seafloor like a king.
