Next door in Silicon Valley

Whoaaaaa

I think we're trending towards 999: 9am - 9pm, 9 days in office per week

Even putting aside Prop 13 malarkey - retirees here generally are of the culture that moving out of a single family home into something dense is a stigma. It's saying you've decided to give up and live with vermin or something. That and you'll be murdered daily.

Yeah I’m not sure people whose employers have ended WFH would consider an office a fringe benefit

We’re going to end up with Universal Home Insurance for All before we have Medicare for All.

What, you want people in high fire risk homes and who don’t do anything to mitigate the risk to become homeless!?

Welcome home to Nextdoor dot com Max. We’ve been waiting for you.

Trump take spaghetti

Great shot of Central Park!

It's a pretty big deal that the NYC Bar Association--one of the most prominent and respected bar associations in the country--is accusing the President of ordering the "unlawful summary execution," i.e. murder--of civilians in violation of US and international law. www.nycbar.org/press-releas...

Pritzker: “The Trump administration is following a playbook: Cause chaos, create fear and confusion, make it seem that peaceful protesters are a mob by firing gas pellets and tear gas canisters at them. Why? To create the pretext for invoking the Insurrection Act.”

It’s important to flood social media and news channels with news about how ICE lies, so that potential jurors see it.

Wow, the negative posts about Measure A are really pouring onto NextDoor. I'd bet a $1 that it won't pass.

this is incredible

Your mission is to explain what it means now that 60 Minutes is hosted by Michael Shellenberger, to people who legit comment “WE DONT DESERVE DOGS” to this

Repeal the death tax! And by death tax I mean allow people to inherit Prop 13 property taxes - including rental ones!

Newsom just vetoed a bill to regulate license plate readers — even as fresh evidence of misuse emerges The measure would have required regular purges of license plate databases and regularly audited how automated readers are used.

Gruesome Newsom just vetoed a bill to regulate license plate readers due to opposition from RivCo's fascist sheriff, despite widespread reports of cops using them to stalk love interests and sharing data with ICE. calmatters.org/economy/tech...

Fun coda to the story, Bari Weiss is now head of CBS news and Radley Balko was fired from the WaPo mostly because he was such a good actual journalist on his beat

Fill in the blank

Old CBS: The Insider (1999) by Michael Mann

New CBS: ___________

I feel like it's more about turning the unprofitable segment of your entertainment business into an ongoing political contribution to the governing entity which regulates the profitable segments.

They literally just fought a Supreme Court case for the right to racially profile. It was in the news!

“The problem with America is that the news is too partisan, which is why I’m turning CBS over to a committed ideologue with a tiny paying audience”.

gonna go to my grave muttering about how this charlatan unironically cited an "Official Antifa" Twitter account in the NYT bsky.app/profile/jame...

Megyn Kelly has now made multiple denigrating posts about me across X, YouTube, her podcast so I’m sharing this. Unlike her, I don't perform dislike and disdain in public,then become my real self when the cameras are off. That's the definition of the grift she accuses me of;I find it profoundly sad.

perhaps the biggest story TFPever ran was a catastrophically shoddy argument that George Floyd ackshully died of an overdose. When confronted with irrefutable evidence that the piece was simply wrong, Weiss didn’t take it down, she asked her critic, @radleybalko.bsky.social, to come on a podcast.

The very first statute authorizing domestic use of the military during domestic emergencies, enacted in 1792 by a Congress full of the same folks who wrote and ratified the Constitution, expressly provided for judicial review in certain circumstances *before* the President could even send troops.
