If Shapiro and Newsom are so concerned about Trump supporters they should run as Republicans.

It may sound radical, but if one guy has so much wealth and power that he can use the large newspaper he owns to publicly threaten to ruin a service we all rely on, presumably as a bargaining tactic to get lower rates, we probably need to tax that guy until he can't do that anymore.

Feels like my whole life is starting over at 35 and not in a good way.
I’ve lost two pets this year. I left my job of five years in June and my partner of 10 years and I recently decided to end our relationship. As such, I’m leaving Cooper after 11 years in this neighborhood to move back in with my parents. I’m so damn lonely and I don’t know what to do.

Friendly reminder that striking workers are asking you not to patronize ANY Starbucks store.

If you're traveling this week, your airport definitely has other options. Zero reason to even think about crossing a picket line!

Rad Power owners should note that the company's newer batteries are not affected by the CPSC warning. Link in the story about how to check.

The U.S Consumer Product Safety Commission claims Rad Power "refused to agree to an acceptable recall." Rad Power says the CPSC's solution would bankrupt the company.

X's location "transparency" feature showing many MAGA accounts are based internationally reveals what we already knew: The world is using American social media and American politics as a slot machine and social media companies are directly incentivizing this:
