INVESTIGATION: 7-year-old Isaiah Stark died from ingesting too much sodium, the coroner found, likely due to drinking olive brine. The parents had used olive brine as a form of punishment, a mandatory reporter said. His death was swept under the rug. trib.al/RwqcWQb

Climate change is an existential threat to Colorado and we need urgent action now. Meanwhile DOTI leadership talks about “balance” maintaining the status quo of climate harmful transportation options.

DPD will not be stopping federal enforcement of immigration laws. Anyone else actively hampering or impeding can be charged with a federal crime. @MikeJohnstonCO should be recalled just for saying what he is proposing. What other federal laws are now “illegal” in your jurisdiction? Your stand is nothing more than virtue signaling.

@KyleClark @MikeJohnstonCO Exactly what is the Mayor fighting for? Didn’t he take the oath of office to protect the Constitution of the United States of America?

@freeborn_wolf @KDVR Because everyone lives 15 miles away from anything else and all the roads twist and turn in ways that young children can’t memorize. All houses look the same, and everyone is driven everywhere so you don’t know the way. Cars ruin everything.

The affluent Bay Area suburb of Menlo Park (home of Facebook, median home price $2.6M) is planning on turning a couple downtown parking lots into multifamily affordable housing. Predictably, many local residents are absolutely furious.

@ronrule It costs money for the government to protect your land, build and maintain the sewer pipes you use to remove your waste, and build a maintain the endless roads needed to maintain suburbia.

Ron Rule@ronrule·
Property taxes should be outlawed. And before someone says “aLL tAxEs sHouLd be ouTlaWed” yes, but property taxes in particular are the most unjust. Every other tax is based on a share of a transaction. You always know upfront what this share will be. Property taxes, on the other hand, are based on a “value” assessed by the same entity levying the tax. Your town or county literally “decides” what your property is worth (assessed value) and then demands a share of it, regardless of your ability to pay. Fail to pay and they take the property for themselves. The model is actually worse than an unrealized gains tax; you aren’t just paying the tax on the gain, you are basically paying a percentage of whatever they decide the value is, every year in perpetuity. That’s why it’s is the most unjust tax. That’s why it should be abolished.

@Mariconheiro @north0fnorth So start local. Change your city radically and quickly. Make it denser, build more public space, quadruple investment in public transit, and improve walkability and street safety. That’s how we get people to move back to density. Look at Paris‘s recent example.

@Ancapta @north0fnorth Harsh population borders like this are actually what keeps our rural areas rural. This is how human development was for millennia. We made sprawling suburbs in the 50s and beyond, and ruined our cities as a result.
