@nickandert.bsky.social Hey Nick, if you don’t mind me asking, I checked and I think it should be available but I want to make sure since you’d be more likely to know more, is it possible to call in to the metro meeting on Friday?

I’m convinced this post was designed in a lab purely to piss me off. Beyond the authoritarian, militaristic, and outright genocidal shit China spends hundreds of billions of dollars on, the U.S. definitely has these types of screens! They’ve had them for years, this is not new or unique to China!

Incidentally, "I am racist, but only against Israelis, not all Jews" is not what "anti-Zionism" means (Well, the non-evil kind of anti-zionism, anyway)

I think it's healthy for people on Blueksky remember that the people who run the editorial offices of most of the prestige media and commentary outlets in the country hate 🫵YOU🫵 in particular more than anything else.

To be fair to the United Kingdom, the Brits cooked when they decided to make Larry the Official Office Cat a thing. Good to have a symbol of stability and continuity in these trying times.

Also, it's long past time to retire vulgar Marxist arguments about how racism and nativism are just a tool that the capitalist class is using to divide the working class. This stuff is not a distraction. It is a central motivating and binding force in politics, both in the US and elsewhere.

my first reaction is that there's some very good stuff in here. I'd like city council to be even bigger than 25, but it's an improvement. ranked choice voting, council oversight over police, director of public works, 10 year charter review cycles... i think the commission did a fair job

The only thing worth saying here is that in truth, I'm sorry, but we /do/ have to police the language of the victims of genocide. It's that simple. Being a victim of a horrible crime does not entitle you to One Free Incitement To Hatred card.

@nickandert.bsky.social @unavaleable.bsky.social now feels like a good time to mentioned that iirc the metro board did approve an opportunity to reform the metro board, not sure how much it’ll do but it might be worth exploring to see options…

This is absurdly bad PR. These are the images that need amplified. If you're online, think strategically about which images need to go viral to tell the story of the horrors of this moment. RT and share the shit out of them.

An interesting range of interpretations here but what jumps out at me most is that sharp economic downturns seem to be associated, with some lag, with the far-right cannibalizing the center-right and thereby threatening democratic systems. Some implications, perhaps, for democratic system design.

Is this also a thing for non-Infantry officers as well? Like what's the point of sending Armour and Arty guys to Ranger school, what's the utility in making leaders of men and machines individually subjected to harsh light infantry training when that's just like, never going to be their job?

No, because there's a pretty even distribution between line officers from aviation, surface warfare, and subs getting senior command They have some whole nother structural issues, but this isn't one of them

the truth is that Pritzker has power because the cops technically answer to him and he's understandably anxious about what happens if that's suddenly not the case. the civ-mil crisis of municipal policing in the 21st century United States will come to a head at some point. nobody wants to rush it

I second this, with the extra layer that there should probably be a bit more territory this happens to, and this policy should apply to China and any of their other crony’s as well. (Though I do wonder, who will Koenigsberg go to/what will happen to it after the war)?

If the Russians kick this off, they should lose Kaliningrad. I know this war that is meant to end the idea that one can redraw Europe's borders by blood and force. But they opened this can of worms, and I am increasingly no longer opposed to shoving the contents of that can down their throats.

@boxelderdust.bsky.social weird observations I had, but both astronaut’s and SOF personnel are similarly depicted in media as alternating between triumphant awesome successes and catastrophic failures that result in casualties treated as normal for the job that really shouldn’t be.
