The reason I believe in density is so that we don’t “grow” our cities by building cul-de-sacs and strip malls on this:

The Bachelorette is canceled? It’s time to play the music. It’s time to light the lights. It’s time to put The Muppets on ABC on Sunday night. 😌

If Team USA had any personality they would’ve gone all in on The Sandlot vibes instead of military bullshit

BEGGING the Olympic committee to let short track race on NOT the figure skating rink next time

Lee, you hack, start/stop systems were invented by Toyota in 1974 and adopted by European automakers in the 2000s. They reduce fuel consumption by 5-8% and cut idle emissions by 100%. They restart in under 400 milliseconds… faster than your foot moves from brake to gas. Your car doesn't 'die.' The engine decouples from the drivetrain via a reinforced starter motor rated for 500,000+ cycles. This isn't Obama. It's thermodynamics. An engine burning fuel at zero mph does zero useful work. That's not politics. That's the first law. You're the EPA administrator and you don't understand combustion efficiency. Terrifying.

Atmospheric scientist here. Let me tell you what was actually "slashed" today. Slashed: The Endangerment Finding — a 200-page scientific review upheld by the Supreme Court, the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals, and reaffirmed by the National Academies of Sciences in 2025. Slashed: The legal authority to regulate carbon from cars, power plants, and factories. All of it. Gone in one afternoon. Now here's what you're "saving": Yesterday Trump ordered the Pentagon — the largest energy consumer on Earth — to buy coal electricity. Coal costs $69–$169/MWh. Wind costs $27–$53/MWh. Solar costs $38–$78/MWh. 99% of U.S. coal plants cost more to run than replacing them with brand-new solar or wind. That's your tax dollars buying the most expensive electricity on the market. By executive order. While the Peabody Energy CEO stood in the room. And the human cost of what you're "saving"? 460,000 American deaths linked to coal pollution in 20 years. Coal PM2.5 is 2.1x deadlier than other air pollution. (Henneman et al., Science, 2023) All to protect an industry that employs 44,000 people total. Clean energy employs 3.5 million.

Jesus Christ There genuinely has never been an administration that is as pro-cancer, pro-illness, and pro-death as this one Unless you’re a fraudster, pedophile, or exceptionally rich (and willing to bribe him), everything this admin has done is maximize suffering

From reddit: The #Reds are starting a brass band that will play at all Friday and Saturday home games in 2026

Gold Zone knows what we want.

Dodgers spit in their community's eye:

Column: In these times, Jackie Robinson’s team should not grace the White House. (In here: talked to Dave Roberts and Stan Kasten about a potential visit) latimes.com/sports/dodgers…

@ENERGY Damn that’s crazy. It’d be way crazier if not for the fact that wind and solar only make up roughly 10% of the grid.

If you want to know the true value of an energy source, pay attention to how it performs when you need it most.

@metrolosangeles @E_Barcohana @FLOTUS @joelpollak @itslinklauren Personally I think you should pull those ads. Keep those specific buses in cleaning and repairs until the contract ends and you can take the ads off. Terrible movie concept anyway and anyone who would be interested in it already knows it exists

@E_Barcohana @FLOTUS @joelpollak @itslinklauren We're not pulling ads from the system. Our buses do return to the bus divisions around our region during the service day for various reasons -- refueling, change of operators, cleaning, maintenance, etc.

Local Los Angeles leaders are receiving tips that LA County Metro is grounding a fleet of buses that COINCIDENTALLY bear paid ads for @FLOTUS Melania Trump’s movie until after Friday’s release. Can you guys be less obvious @metrolosangeles ? @joelpollak @itslinklauren @libsoftiktok @jenvanlaar @XAVIAERD

@mnolangray Glendale city council is and always has been incredibly anti housing so while disappointing this is unfortunately not surprising

A story I missed: the first project that attempted to use California's infill CEQA exemption—a 682-unit development of a former Sears—was rejected by the Glendale City Council in a move that they knew was illegal.

LA METRO CHOSE THE METRO OPTION OVER THE MONORAIL FOR THE SEPULVEDA CORRIDOR. LET'S GOOOO

An official from Roosevelt High School in Minneapolis told MPR News that armed U.S. Border Patrol officers came onto school property during dismissal Wednesday and began tackling people; they handcuffed two staff members and released chemical weapons on bystanders.

WATCH THIS NOW! Doctor on scene: I'm a physician. Ice agent: I DON'T CARE They shot her three times in the face and head and then denied her medical care and it's all ON CAMERA.
