They have turned up the brightness on the pickle.

In addition to being a protip, this is also a lifehack.

Every day when I read the news, I just remind myself that it’s practice for when I do have a stroke.

Well, I’m glad the 50 year mortgages will be backed by crypto.

Going to post up outside the Jewel tomorrow with my clipboard and a piece of paper that just says “Angry Mob” on it for people to sign (they don’t have to use their real name, they can just write a curse).

We all deserve so much better than PACER

Which is, I think, a bit more harmful to explicit party formation than just a boost in high ranking votes.

I thought prior to the general mayoral election that this manifested as a boost to high ranking vote share. I now think that this manifests as a coordination-free form of co-partisanship for latent parties.

The election did make me change my mind about RCV in one way. Eitan Hirsch expressed a bit of skepticism of MA 1 (RCV ballot measure in 2020), stating specifically that he thought it gave an advantage to famous people in running for office.

I don’t think that RCV mattered that much in the NYC dem mayoral primary. Mamdani was ahead in the first round, and without RCV, Lander would have likely dropped out and endorsed him, resulting in a bigger first round lead.

You’re not wrong. Some tamales would be delicious right now.

Probably be nice to have something like that in a few years.

The (en/ex/per)durant discussion is one I’m happy to see more people having.

The Overton window now extends between Communist Jihadist on the left to Communist Dictatorship on the right. Pretty incredible swing in the last year.

A standard transformaggio architecture, or are you going with a chinese d’fusione?

Hey, we’ve all been there. Your friends are supporting adult slavery and you just have to show them up somehow.

Mamdani takes office on Jan 1, 2026. Back of the envelope calculations say Eric Adams has time to eat 18 more Leprechauns.

This may seem extreme, but it’s the only way to prevent quadratic voting.

Mayhap the stars will align and I’ll get to flatten my garage next summer.

Ah, sorry for the lack of clarity there. I was asking if it got rid of www.chicago.gov/city/en/site... or if there would still be relief needed.

Maybe @abundanthousingil.bsky.social knows the answer to this one?

Does anyone know if the parking minimum removal that just got passed in IL applies to the no-parking-replaced rule in the Chicago ADU zones?

My name is Ozymandias, I hope this statue finds you well.

I’m struck by how an organic add like this would be impossible to make in the midwest because each conversation would be 3-4 hours long.

Have you read The Warmth of Other Suns? Tremendous book about the great migration.
