They told me if I voted for Kamala the market would crash, and then we’d probably have a recession. They were right.

They're called public records for a reason. Starting today, WIRED will *stop paywalling* articles that are primarily based on public records obtained through the Freedom of Information Act, becoming the first publication to partner with @freedom.press to offer this for our new coverage.

Wired is dropping paywalls for FOIA-based reporting. Others should follow
As the administration does its best to hide public records from the public, Wired magazine is stepping up to help stem the secrecy

For around $150 per month, you can see how a cargo bike fits into your life. If you find you prefer two wheels to four, you can even buy your rental at a discount.

Trump convinced enough folks that drag queens and Mexicans are the enemy so now we’ll all be poorer, sicker, and worse off for it all while his cronies seize the government & funnel public money into their wallets. Does this roller coaster have an eject button? I want off the ride.

I know everyone is upset about single family homes being bought by investors and rented out, but I can’t get that mad about it because they give families who don’t have a $100,000+ down payment or cannot qualify for a mortgage the opportunity to live in single family neighborhoods with good schools.
if you somehow start building 1000s of homes without addressing these issues, those same homes will still get snapped up and freeze out first time buyers who (going back to wealth inequality) don't have the resources to outbid investment.

The best way to fight back against Musk: Don’t buy a Tesla. (And if you own one, sell it.) The company was already in a precarious position before Musk launched his assault on democracy. A Tesla boycott would be devastating – and richly deserved. Me, in Slate 🧵

Don’t Buy a Tesla. Sell Your Tesla. Refuse a Tesla at the Rental Counter. Yes—It Will Help.

What a brain dead piece. Yeah, liberty thrives in an environment where the government lets you do exactly one thing with your property? Where an inminban of your most psychotic neighbors monitors you 24/7, and charges you a fee for the privilege? Get a grip.

​The top story on every US media outlet is the crash at National Airport, where 67 people died. Meanwhile, 67 Americans die in car crashes every 15 hours The DCA crash is clearly front-page news. Maybe we should give America's road safety crisis the same treatment.

I believe disabled folks are my equals. That means their disabilities don’t automatically shield them from criticism. 🤷‍♂️ Alice trashed Kamala in an op-ed to dampen enthusiasm for her. While she didn’t cause Trump’s win, she contributed to it. It’s fair to point that out.

It’s always what the cyclist should do to prevent death and injury and not what drivers should do. Reduce biking, pedestrian, AND vehicle fatalities by protecting bike lanes & adding abundant traffic calming measures (speed bumps, narrow roads, traffic circles, etc). Cars are the problem!

A fun cycle in US politics: 1. Dems adopt RW policies that hurt vulnerable populations in order to blunt RW attacks. 2. RW attacks anyway, successfully associating Dems with far-left policy. 3. Dems end up with worst of both worlds: political cost of leftist policy; real-world damage of RW policy.

Every major city in America needs more housing. If the Dems in charge actually built it, maybe we’d win more elections, but right now, our reps would rather give lip service to equal rights while denying the most basic right to shelter in their own backyards. Shelter precedes all others! #yimby
