Carshare is a critical part of our transportation system. People rely on HOURCAR and Evie. The sudden sunset is devastating. Let decision-makers know you support emergency bridge funding to save carshare. savecarsharemn.org

Keep carshare in our neighborhoods
HOURCAR's last day is October 15. Call and write your city council member, county commissioner, and the governor about keeping carshare running.

I also cannot believe for one second it's a coincidence that the only modestly ethical public good (even if still a bit carbrained) gets a rug-pull the same month that robot death taxis move into town

Repeating my sotto voce refrain that I think we are very soon going to have to deal with the plain (but seldom spoken) fact that police are simply not under the control of the political leadership who command them on paper.

I love how every city in the US is essentially held hostage by their police department.

The funniest thing on here this afternoon is the people who are responding to news of a televised lynching with “omg, I feel like I live in some foreign country”

Besides the random gang violence police departments carry out regularly, their insane budgets also financially hold US cities hostage. Most of our cities are falling apart and bankrupt because their forced to keep afloat a military budget for their cops.

The Unites States at its core has always been irredeemable, y’all. It is baked into our history. This is disgusting, disgraceful, and the absolute height of shameful. Good Lord.

Transphobic rot has truly spread and taken root in the minds of the media because they're trying to make "social contagion" stick for every issue from menopausal women who want hormone treatments to the right-wing demographic panic. When all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a tranny.

A real successful 1A day here on campus. Heavy hitters. Big student turnout. Engaged questions. My notes for the academic freedom panel is a sort of Cliff Notes of how I approach this thing. This is it. My whole talk.
Notes app reads: Neoliberalism weaponizes bias to justify austerity. Austerity creates corporate universities. Corporate universities are unhealthy organizations. Unhealthy organizations cannot inculcate or defend academic freedom. Without academic freedom to check administrative power,  corporate universities will translate austerity into financialized predation. Predation undermines public trust in higher education. Death spiral accelerates.

from 2001. no one’s doing product testimonials like this anymore. t.co/PEswCtbEZz
Toyota's unease at being associated with the Taliban and Al Qaeda is evident. In its September statement, the company said,
'Toyota does not have a sales or distribution channel in Afghanistan, and we do not export vehicles to that country."
Somewhat less laconic was Wade Hoyt, Toyota's spokesman in New York, who put the best corporate spin on the situation this week.
"It is not our proudest product placement," he said. "But it shows that the Taliban are looking for the same qualities as any truck buyer: durability and reliability."

Knowing the history of how federal agencies dismantled so many left wing organizations with pure violence and having to watch every right wing group get handled with kid gloves is maddening. I think if I ever saw the heritage foundation get stormed by a seal team I'd get so pro-America so quickly.

this is not a problem you can fix with calm, reasoned debate. you can't even fix it by improving people's lives with policy. there is no clear, proven, non-violent solution to this issue. finding one is the most significant problem of our age.

Part of why I don't like the AI-or-bust economy is the constant flopsweat of people on the news who say this HAS to work. Quit making everyone so anxious. Goddamn. If this is the next Google then why are you acting like this? I don't remember being told to buy an iPhone at gunpoint.

Sort of insane fact about how broken US urban planning is—America now spends more building *just the lights for roads and highways* than on all subways & ground mass transit combined Spending on roadway *pavement* is 18x transit spending

"In 2020, there were only six programs in the U.S. that sent unarmed responders, such as mental health clinicians, to certain 911 calls instead of police officers. Now, these programs — sometimes called alternative or community response — are in nearly 100 cities." www.npr.org/2026/09/22/n...

How unarmed 911 teams are reshaping public safety in nearly 100 cities
Alternative response programs, where mental health clinicians respond to 911 calls instead of police, have proliferated since George Floyd's murder. What does it take to do this work well?

White people don't understand gentrification because in the US it is a symptom of racism as a whole... Which they also don't understand. They know the optics are bad, but they don't understand why it's bad,who it hurts, & the overall mechanics of it.

Bald *w/Circular Glasses @blackv91.bsky.social · 22/09/2026
But a lot of white people see the whole situation as "people can move where they want" instead of what is happening where people are being forced out"
