“AI isn’t going to change the world, most people are never going to be interested in using an AI tool” yes, ok, the vast majority of the world has still never touched a spreadsheet so you may be totally wrong about how to measure the world changing potential of a technology.

Imagine sharing a story about your disabled child eloping from school unnoticed and being so full of brainworms that you try to make it about Katie Wilson turning off cameras in another part of the city

According to NextDoor Magnolia is a remote, featureless, isolated hellhole and that’s why there shouldn’t be housing at Fort Lawton. Should we let the bridge fall and turn the whole neighborhood into a park? Displaced magnolians can be put in Laurelhurst (sent by 🚁)

This is demonstrably, measurably improving the health of the people who live there. Most notably, it increases the respiratory *& cognitive* health of children. They literally do better in school. If this country really gave a shit about children, this would be at the top of the public-policy list.

Worst person you know makes a good point. (Except of course for Israel having Gaza and the West Bank to give away)
A tweet from Yair Netanyahu, 2019, showing a map of Spanish territorial holdings in Africa and saying “Dear Arabs and Muslims. Want to free occupied Arab Islamic lands? Here’s a good start”. Followed the next day by “Dear Spanish people, i see you all got upset. Ceuta and Melilla are tiny territories you own across the sea on another continent. Now imagine how we feel when your government asks for Israel to give away [Gaza and the West Bank]”.

Too angry to finish reading this. Guess we better go back to the magical time where just accusing a man of rape ruins their lives, since we don’t have a way for anyone to investigate whether the accusation is true. sfstandard.com/2026/07/20/s...

Her rape kit had a DNA match. In San Francisco, that’s not enough
SFPD cleared 14% of rape cases last year — half the national rate. The Standard found that kits get tested fast, then cases get quietly shelved.
