There needs to be a term for educated people saying stupid things in bad faith before smugly responding to everyone making the wrong argument against it.
Homelessness increased primarily because of immigration (lots of people came to the US without setting up housing).

If California were governed competently San Francisco would be one of the largest cities in the world.
sometimes i think about how california manages to be the world's fifth-largest economy and yet also a consistently dysfunctional and shambolic state government
This is what passes for progressivism and climate policy in California. Jane Kim’s answer for elevated fire risk and actuarial risk? Put it on the public dime. Urban renters should bail out well to do exurban property owners and landlords in fire zones. FAIR plan is already a ticking time bomb!

I was hit by a car a long long time ago, and I’m pretty sure I wouldn’t survive that event these days
And things have been getting worse for the past decade or so due to bigger commuter vehicles, screens, and probably post-pandemic "rules are done lol" norms

it's always funny when a cis woman who doesn't even pass is trying to downplay a policy that revolves around harassing people who don't pass
Staggering arrogance and stupidity from McDonnell. We all know what sex we are. There's no reason for men to break the law and use women's single-sex spaces. They can simply respect women's boundaries or can be told to leave. Women matter in society, law, culture, politics ... and elections!

A lot of lives could have been saved if the administration did this instead of killing real people in the Caribbean. All they wanted was the video anyways.
The latest trend in Facebook’s ever downward spiral down the AI slop toilet are AI deportation videos. And the Facebook algorithm is rewarding creators for it. @jasonkoebler.bsky.social reports.

I am not joking when I say that these people changed my position on Capital Punishment. I lived in Boston when the marathon was bombed and I didn't like the death sentence in that case, but these guys keep gleefully keep racking up the body count and it's bringing out the worst in me.
They’re killing people as a twitter joke. It’s depraved. Can’t let yourself lose the capacity to be appalled and disgusted and outraged by this.

This is genocidal logic, but it's also just deeply embarrassing magical thinking. The "facts & logic" crowd insists I can't be a woman because they've convinced themselves that would require some woo woo notion of "gender identity", but they find this fucking volksgeist nonsense totally plausible?
