I'm hard-pressed to think of a non-Jewish Democratic politician who has spoken to Jews with more respect and empathy than Mamdani. The fact that many Jewish establishment orgs are going after him while staying relatively mum on resurgent Nazism is a disaster, both for American Jews and in general.

Same, I no longer support @wabikes.bsky.social because they don't support the true non-car advocate, @wilsonforseattle.bsky.social.

If I were autistic I'd be pretty offended by all this talk about "preventing" or "curing" people like me.

I have a theory that the very fact Ryan is in the room, and Councilmembers know it, leads to better governance.

"Fun" update on the hit and run on LWB. The cops know who did it and aren't going to charge them.

Love our "partners in vision zero".

0. Vought, Vance, Rufo, and those attacking academia see scientists as bureaucratsβ€”in the most pejorative sense of the termβ€”who they can "put into trauma" and drive to quit.

They don't understand that science is not just a job. It's a vocation, literally, in the original sense of *a calling*.

As Universities Yield to Trump, Higher Ed Unions Fight Back From lawsuits to protests, labor organizations representing faculty, grad students and other workers are resisting. Discussions about what to do next continue.

β€œWe have more power now on our campuses than we’ve had in recent memory,” said Ian Gavigan, national director of Higher Ed Labor United, or HELU...β€œAnd we couldn’t actually be better positioned to fight back against the kind of authoritarian attacks that we’re seeing.”

This is funny. And the serious problem with the NYT is it misinforms about reality. Not with inaccuracy so much as emphasis, perspective, and framing. That makes it a bad news source. Go to the Guardian, or Wired, or others/ independent sources. You don't need the NYT or LA Times, or WaPo.
