The decision came hours after IU terminated Director of Student Media Jim Rodenbush.

Republicans like to say that the left wants to institute censorship on campus, but here they are, after having politicized the IU trustees, shutting down the student newspaper.

They’re shutting down the presses.

Reminder that any political party trying to make it harder to vote is sending a clear message: they can't win on their ideas alone.

People who abuse their power in one way abuse it in every way. Cuomo and Trump are such men.

Lindsey Boylan was the first of about a dozen women to accuse Andrew Cuomo of sexual harassment and is now supporting Zohram Mamdani for mayor of New York City.

Is the Franklin Spoke going to be parallel to the active train corridor or is that corridor being shut down and replaced by the trail? This is the first I've seen/heard of this!

[On Aurora Ave] "I think that it requires that kind of vision from the top to say, “Look, this is the direction we’re moving in and it’s not going to be popular with everyone, but we’re doing it.”" @wilsonforseattle.bsky.social

Katie Wilson

Yeah. I’ve been really impressed by the work of the Aurora Reimagined Coalition, which has done a lot of kind of visioning around what Aurora could look like. And, and then we have some funding. I believe it’s $50 million from the state legislature that is supposed to be used.

David Roberts

Which is in danger of going away because they’re not doing anything with it.

Katie Wilson

Because there’s not the political will to really implement this and say, look, we’re going to envision how this could be transformed into a place that is safe for pedestrians and for cyclists and where you might want to hang out.

David Roberts

All those visions are incommensurate with it being a highway. And SDOT, as I understand it, the Seattle Department of Transportation, insists on keeping it a highway. So I wonder if you — if you can cut that Gordian knot.

Katie Wilson

Yeah, I mean, I think. And, I’m not the mayor yet, so I don’t have access to all the kind of internal debates and trade-offs that I’m sure have been discussed. But, at some point it becomes, we have to. Again, we have this funding from the state legislature on the assumption that we are trying to turn this into a safer street and a livable street. And so, I mean, I think that it requires that kind of vision from the top to say, “Look, this is the direction we’re moving in and it’s not going to be popular with everyone, but we’re doing it.”

As I've said before, this is how you monetize a site like this one. Buying in gets you punchcard access to all of the site's partners. You can use your punchcard to read paywalled articles. When you do that, the publisher gets a kickback. Your money supports this site AND pubs you frequent.

You’ll notice that new developments in generative AI are always accompanied by new ways of depicting women without their consent—undermining their autonomy and harassing them—almost like it’s a pillar of the technology and its evolution

So are WIN 10 users going to be pushed to *pay* for future updates? Or is it a pull only, where the user will have to seek out updates and pay for them?

“‘I have not seen them cross the line yet,’ Johnson said flatly, waving off examples of shattered windows, detained veterans, and non-criminal deportations that have sparked protests nationwide.” migrantinsider.com/p/mike-johns...

Mike Johnson Says ICE Hasn’t “Crossed the Line.” The Country Disagrees.

From Chicago to Los Angeles, ICE raids are breaking windows, families, and trust — but not, apparently, the Speaker’s conscience.
