It’s like Hafley morphed into Barry overnight. Totally bewildering.

I very strongly believe that one of the most dangerous things about our society is that most people neither understand what an actual expert is nor know how to identify a genuine expert

Yup, should have drafted a center (Duke kid) in the Morgan draft. Could have still gotten rid of Myers, wouldn’t have had to sign Banks.

Momentum carried him forward I think. Looks like he couldn’t control it.

Absolutely. Public transportation and the frequency of it also fosters conversation and a sense of community. It’s a different mindset and it is reflected in how cities and infrastructure are designed. There’s also a greater degree of empathy when you’re exposed to people like this

Much more community friendly in Europe in this regard

Why are we not winning this by more?? Why do special teams suck again?

Helsinki goes a full year without a traffic death A city traffic engineer credits the success to lower speed limits and smarter design.

“Helsinki has not recorded a single traffic fatality in the past 12 months, city and police officials confirmed this week.”

Finland ends homelessness and provides shelter for all in need - scoop.me In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Why? The country applies the "Housing First" concept agains homelessness.

“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back into a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.”

It costs a lot less to house people.

Unchecked, AI will reproduce, if not excerbate, educational inequities. It's naively foolish to believe otherwise.

Washington DC has 702,000 people, is 45% Black and has 0 senators

Wyoming has 590,000 people, is 86% white and has 2 senators

DC needs a state with proper representation, not a military takeover

Traditionally, working class people, POCs, young people, LGBTQIIA+ ppl, lower-income folks, but the corporatist approach has driven lower-income ppl out & concentrated more on wealthier suburbanites. Dem leaning base, esp. younger has become increasingly more progressive on policies & disconnected

Even that, i.e., this notion of the “base” that she raises is a mischaracterization. Is that the same base that did not turn out to vote in ‘24 bc they were not inspired by a preserve the status quo message? Somehow it’s okay to dismiss & trash THAT base but invoke the “base” to attack progressives

Where’s Spoon?

I believe one of the new mRNA vaccines was expected to treat colon cancer, and another had the potential to keep pancreatic cancer from recurring. That’s what they’re taking away.

I ask you to join me in in honoring the memory of these four New Yorkers.

I have thought on it and prayed about it, and I have decided: I am running to be the next U.S. Senator from North Carolina.
