It's common sense to allow Philadelphians to build generational wealth and age in place by adding bonus units (ADUs). This is one way we can prevent displacement and create affordable housing in one go. share.inquirer.com/geX7Mb

Teams been working on an abstraction layer for data imports/exports, so I tested it out with @sifa.id. At the moment it’s import only. If you give it a try, let me know! (Accessible via account settings page.)

for me impeachment isn't what we should be after. this president and most of his cabinet and staff should be prosecuted for corruption, fraud, war crimes, obstruction, and all the various crimes they have committed. i will only vote for a presidential candidate in 2028 who commits to this.

Here's the CEO of @thefireorg.bsky.social being extremely transphobic. Which side is the one criminalizing care and research? Which side is the one defunding all research? Which side is purging dissent? It ain't trans people. These people were asked not to be transphobic and they lost their minds.

A screenshot of a post on X (formerly Twitter) by Greg Lukianoff (@glukianoff) that reads: "In my career defending academic freedom and free speech, I never saw anything become as immediately radioactive as views that ran counter to the narrative on trans issues. Papers were retracted, compelled speech was treated as normal, and people were canceled for saying things that would have sounded like common sense just a few years earlier. It seemed to become a kind of secular blasphemy overnight. And usually, that is a sign that the true believers know, at some level, that they are on shaky ground."
Below the text is a tag for "@hoovlet" and a quote post from Timur Kuran (@timurkuran) dated Apr 5, which reads: "The promoters of 'gender-affirming care' tried to quash scientific debate on its effects through name-calling and by designating as 'settled science' the claim that it improves the mental health of dysphoric kids. It’s now clear why they feared open scientific ..."

Part of this feels like it’s because a lot of atproto dev discourse leans “all or nothing”. Apps are either completely native or don’t exist at all. There needs to be an incentive for 3rd party apps with existing users to integrate, rn the cost of entry is high

The news has moved on, but ICE is still in Minneapolis. My neighbors are still patrolling streets, driving strangers to work, and providing aid. As a photojournalist at @propublica.org, I wanted to know: What do they look like in their daily lives? So I picked up my camera 👇

Four portraits of Minnesota residents inside and outside their homes. From left to right: A woman in a hijab, an older woman wearing a red whistle, an elderly couple in winter coats standing in the snow, and a woman wearing a buttoned-up cardigan and dark blue jeans.

The #Iran strikes w/ #Israel were telegraphed for over a week as assets moved in. House and Senate are held by #Republican sycophants. So #Trump either: A. couldn't justify the strikes even to them B. knew they'd roll over obediently C. worse, A & B Don't fall for the post hoc rationalizations

Yet again, an American president is sending other people’s kids to risk their lives in a senseless regime change war. Yet again, we will lose lives, spend billions, and end up dragged into decades of instability.

Trump has launched an illegal regime change war. As someone who has survived the horrors of war, I know military strikes will not make us safer; they will inflame tensions and push the region further into chaos. When we abandon diplomacy, we choose destruction.

Once got my car “courtesy towed” 4 blocks away while I was at work. Came back and found it (eventually), along with a nice little PPA ticket. This is asking the city to do the bare minimum, but finally something!

Newspaper archives show references to dumping snow in the Delaware and Schuylkill dating back at least to the late 19th century. But the practice is not used now amid environmental concerns.

Philly is not dumping snow in the Schuylkill, but it has in the past

Figured I’d hop on here today for the 15th anniversary of the Affordable Care Act. With everything going on right now, it’s easy to feel like regular folks can’t make a difference – but the ACA is a reminder that change is possible when we fight for progress.
