Obviously I’m entirely made of Housing but a real good zoning reform we could make is re-legalizing corner stores on residential streets. Banned by the same 1957 code that banned ADUs, so maybe that’s next

i still can't believe they think like this without continuing to the obvious conclusion: if a.i. has consciousness and "moral standing" then humans making it work for them is *slavery*

the Taliban a while back started requiring members to grow beards, which discriminates against Uzbeks because Pashtuns have an easier time growing beards

Thats so interesting. Im in a group with many Muslim women and one question that constantly comes up is "we live in a country where polygamy is allowed, and he wants a second wife, what do I do?" The immediate response is always "Does he have 2nd wife money?"

that's a thought that occurred to me too. capitalism didn't just eat the world, it also ate itself. private sector entities became less efficient and less capable at doing anything. instead of hyper-intelligent ais and luxury resort space stations we got hallucinating chatbots and exploding rockets

In France they have a saying, "sous vide" – which in English roughly translates to "Immersion Cooker Bundle with Vacuum Sealer Machine,1000W Cooker Immersion Circulator with 14 Preset Recipes on APP and Thermal Immersion with Timer" and I just think thats beautiful

On her way home, she stops at WalMart where she buys the antibiotics using a coupon. She also buys a four-pack of hot pockets, a bunch of bananas, and some Takis. She drives home, turns on the light, puts two hot pockets in the freezer, and heats the other two in the microwave.

on her phone. At the clinic, the dentist drills out her cavity, puts in fillings, and notices an infection in her mouth, so the dentist writes a prescription for antibiotics.

I was thinking today about technological progress. Imagine a woman living in a holler in West Virginia, OK? She has a cavity and she sees there's a free dental clinic coming up. She texts a co-worker to cover her shift that day. She punches in the address of the clinic into the navigation app

he has accumulated precisely one basket. he is actively using that basket. he does not maintain a portfolio of twelve baskets that sit vacant while other cats sleep on the floor or outside. that's because there are no cat landlords. for each cat, a basket, and for each basket, a cat.
an orange and white cat occupies a basket with a blanket in it. his paws are crossed adorably.

I don't think it got posted, so I'm going to, because I love it so much, and I want folks to see it! #foxgirlsummer isn't over quite yet! I love the pure joy in the expression and pose~ Art by the amazing @crazyfoxlady.bsky.social; thank you again!!!
Juniper the foxtaur playing in the water at a beach! She's standing on her hind legs, forepaws in the air. She's got her eyes closed and mouth open in a big smile, long hair blowing in the wind. She's wearing her trademark collar and a bikini top. Her lower half is wet, with water dripping off her hindlegs and tail. Water stretches into the distance and meets the beach; where she stands it barely covers her beans, but is splashing. The sky has a few clouds but is mostly clear.
The image is in grayscale, with the darker parts of her fur on the legs and arms, and hair, are more shaded.
Art by the lovely Rii, @crazyfoxlady.bsky.social!

OMG, Second Life. I almost successfully blocked that out. One school where I worked wasted a year building a virtual financial aid office so students could send their avatars to talk with the financial aid advisor's avatar, which absolutely no students did. So, more work for the staff for nothing.

There was a big high wall there that tried to stop me; Sign was painted, it said private property; But on the back side it didn't say nothing; This land was made for you and me.
A fence gate over a paved walking path with a sign saying 'PRIVATE PROPERTY NO TRESSPASSING. To the left, there is plenty of room to walk around the fence gate.
