@NickyFrank30 @mishbino Whatever happened to the person who claimed they saw the report and it says Gaza was the most important thing?

@mishbino "They didn't mention GAZA!" Because they found it didn't matter.

Yeah this is pretty much what I heard the autopsy, to the extent it was done; said. I’m sure this will satisfy everyone who demanded it

I think my retirement plan should have been storming the Capitol on Jan 6th, and collect my payout from Trump! I served 5 years in State Prison for selling sugar to a Fed.

@luusssso Much was written about Dieter Rams' influence on Jony Ive, particularly when the iPhone 4 debuted.

So interesting to me that society elevated early minimalist designs by Apple to cult-like status when Dieter Rams and Braun were doing it almost 50 years before

@charlierybak It's too busy.

Should’ve been the flag. It’s so beautiful.

imagine you’re 5 years old & your parents are addicted to their phones

If you ask me, the underlying issue is that the US became a wealthy and prosperous society where people have it so good they lost sight of the connection between government and their own well being, stopped taking civics seriously, and turned politics into entertainment.

@julian__gerson @NYCMayor Does anyone know if he also likes Steely Dan? Asking for a friend.

.@NYCMayor: "I want to reflect on the words of the late, great Val Kilmer in the 1995 Michael Mann classic, 'Heat'. He said: "For me, the sun rises and sets with her, man." For too long, the sun has risen and set on New Yorkers living in apartments without reliable heat."

@jpcoolican Great headline, too.

Excellent reporting by Cole Hanson on a nightmare for some mfg home park residents, and what the Legislature can do abou it.

The thing that makes gerrymandering hard to solve is that "we have a God-given right to minority rule" is like a major tenet of the Republican Party post-Bill Clinton, so fair representation is non-negotiable for them since they consider fair representation to be when they have disproportionate power.

@Noahpinion I think that's just Minneapolis?

What American progressives want is pre-2000 Portland -- a car-centric 80% white town with a bunch of bike lanes and bike paths and a cute light rail that almost no one rides.

Minnesota had the best job growth of any state in the Midwest when Operation Metro Surge hit.

@WatchJRGo1198 @oi8achevy He's getting misty eyed over a bunch of rusted out '97 Grand Ams.

@oi8achevy It sure is, in a few more years… classic/collectible are simply a function on nostalgia. You were probably hating on Hondas during C4C, now Hondas are the top dog in collectibles. Hyundais are absolutely coming. Classic/collectible cars aren’t special, they’re just old.

There are literally millions of cars littering the United States that deserve to be destroyed, cash for clunkers was just that, an amazing program that got trash off our streets. The biggest downside was having to own those cars for 6 months prior, it would’ve been the greatest arbitrage opportunity of all time. I remember when it dropped, and cross referencing the list to Craigslist and finding hundreds of cars I could’ve sold to the government for $2,000 over what the owner was asking. Every single example was clapped and those people (overwhelming low income) suddenly had gold in their hands. Was it a handout, sure… did it help the auto industry and thusly the country? Probably. (If anything it’s more of a wealth transfer to the banks as all car transactions are) All I know is the only thing I’ll ever be upset about was them gatekeeping the arb with the ownership time requirement. Honestly they should run it again but for salvage title cars only since the number of them on the road is growing exponentially.

If Kamala had won, right now she would be touring one of the new housing projects funded by her housing program wearing a hard hat, taking pictures and cracking corny jokes. Instead of that we’re doing a boots on the ground war that will last at least the rest of the year.

@PluginHyBrad One simple reason: Electric is not Veblen.

I feel like I’m going insane. Electric makes THE MOST sense in a Rolls. They’ve worked for decades to make that V12 as smooth and quiet as possible, but electric is better in every metric. How the hell is ostentatious quiet luxury losing a fake culture war???

Remember when Biden repeatedly stressed that he was trying to keep Israel from starting a regional war?

@ListerLawrence And now you have my attention.

I’ve taken the liberty of asking good old AI what the Alpina version of the new i3 could look like…

@owroot Your car had active aero?

I remember listening to the radio in the car. It was different than Spotify. Spotify is so nice but the radio is different. Unable to choose the song, the sound, that others were listening somewhere else near as well. It was just different.

@Rat_Solaire Please re-install the cat. We all have to breathe.

my "legacy car" has no screen, no tablet, no catalytic converter, no muffler it starts at the turn of a key, drives me anywhere I want, guzzles 8L of PETROL per 100km and my carbon footprint is still miles below your "digital optimus"

Stop me if you've heard this one before. Trump admin did a massive unconstitutional surge of secret police, claimed it was about fraud, and wrecked the local US Attorney's Office in the process. And now they're really struggling to prosecute actual fraud. kstp.com/kstp-news/top-…
