"L.A.’s trash problem 'is worse than a Third World country. Not even Ecuador looks like this.'"

I've lived here for 20 years and literally anywhere else in the world that I've traveled, I've never seen a trash problem 10% as bad as it is in L.A.'s RESIDENTIAL neighborhoods.

In L.A., dumped trash is suffocating neighborhoods, businesses, community spirit. Volunteer `trash vigilantes' have stepped up, with their own time and money, to do what they can. Yet L.A.’s trash tests the limits of volunteers doing so much of a job that belongs to government.

In L.A. elections I am a one-issue voter, and this is my one issue samquinones.substack.com/p/in-la-dump...

I do not think I could beat Serena Williams at tennis but I DO think I could escape a Chotiner interview relatively unscathed…

I don't know why this has done it this morning, but:

The claim from MAGA reps that we have been "at war with Iran for 47 years" when a huge swath of Reagan's administration was convicted at trial or pled guilty to selling arms to Iran THROUGH ISRAEL for six years in the 80s is 🀯.

Thx. Ok so probably still a significant discount on most rides, just not always 50%? I guess I would consider like, a 5 or 10% discount β€œinsulting.”

In college I had my own Arnold Is Numero Uno shirt made and over its useful life it probably received no fewer than 500 compliments/big dudes asking me where I got it (plus another 200 people asking me if my name was Arnold). You will understand this is short order

And yet it was the former who claimed with a straight face that his company would make $1 trillion in revenue in 2027. Congrats to Dario for being the less ridiculous person for the week ending 2/27/26 tho

They probably don’t have to be all THAT clever considering how eager Trump and Hegseth are to release statements that make retaliation and viewpoint discrimination claims essentially irrefutable.

For my money, this might be THE defining antisocial behavior of the social media era.

Personally, when I get angry about something and then find out that actually, I don’t need to be angry, that is good and I feel… relief?

The people who are driven to absolute distraction by WILL STANCIL are, to a person, irreversibly afflicted with online brain poisoning. No detox can help them, no medication.

Shockingly, like 90% of the right appears to be extremely pissed about this as well, and even more shockingly… they are pissed about it for the same exactly reasons!

Doesn’t this case deal with a power that was delegated to Congress in the constitution, as opposed to some past Major Questions cases that dealt with powers less clearly designated?

Yes that’s correct.

Also, the disconnect is that one group works for us and also has guns.
