Using your definition of dark money you accept dark money.

@AustinJustice If you would just give up your privacy and allow spyware on your phone that would cut crime.

San Francisco is now a model for how to fight crime. A few years ago it averaged 86 car break-ins per day. Today: 15. SF did two things: 1. Got a DA that prosecutes criminals: Following the successful recall of Chesa Boudin, DA Brooke Jenkins started prosecuting prolific offenders and said so loudly. Crime dropped every year since she took office. 2. Put tech to use: In 2024, SF activated 400 license plate readers and deployed 80 drones citywide. This tech feeds officers live intelligence on suspects in motion. Drones alone have assisted in 1,000+ arrests since then. The technology lets authorities solve crimes as they happen rather than depend on much more intensive, legally perilous post hoc investigations (which ironically are often more intrusive than using tech). The results: - Car break-ins down 85% - Robbery down 30% - Burglary down 33%. - Homicides hit their lowest level since 1954. Plate readers, drones, a prosecutor who prosecutes. That's the whole formula! Austin has the opposite approach. License plate cameras are effectively banned. Jail bookings are down despite repeat offenders victimizing innocent people regularly. Bond violations went from 37 in 2020 to 250 last year. SF proved crime is a choice. Austin, so far, keeps making a different one.

@JenniferSey @wesyang If you can name one DSD condition without googling I’d be shocked.

@wesyang The test doesn’t lie. No matter how much you yell at it. Bully it. Indoctrinate it. They can’t have the tests because the tests will tell the truth. And they will all look like the liars that they are.

The cheek swab takes less than a minute, is done once, and establishes the material and immutable fact of your sex for life. The whole of the Anglophone media is a giant echo chamber of misinformation where the most brazen and maudlin lies are told in unison across outlets.

@Grid_Girl31 @JamieMetzl

As a Democrat, let me beep clear: Our party will lose all legitimacy if we do not clearly reject the bigotry, intolerance, and anti-Americanism of the far left.

@ChristinaPushaw Or, maybe, just maybe, the idea is “live and let live”. Just because you aren’t offended by something doesn’t mean you have to do it.

What I find interesting about the Newsoms is that they both relentlessly promote liberal/left ideologies that are corrosive to family formation and undermine traditional values. However, at the same time, they've been in a heterosexual marriage for 20+ years and have 4 children together. By those measures, they are more "trad" in terms of their own lifestyle than most Americans are, even a lot of conservatives aren't married with 4 kids. So what that tells me is the Newsoms KNOW that the traditional family model is the best; that's why they chose it when they both could've chosen anything else. But as elites they still promote insidious ideologies that end up harming the ordinary people who listen to them. It's a perfect illustration of "luxury beliefs."

@ronrule Just cancel all public schools. Make them for profit. Over a generation or two we’ll figure out which ones work. The human waste that fails can be used for menial labor. Someone has to pick the crops and clean the toilets.

If you homeschool your kids, you should be exempt from the portion of your property taxes that goes to the local schools.

Kinda reads like my blocklist.

🚨BREAKING: 20 Republicans and 20 Democrats just co-sponsored the Dignity Act — the first serious bipartisan immigration bill in decades. What it actually does: No amnesty. No citizenship. No handouts. A pathway to legal work status for long-term undocumented immigrants who meet strict requirements — fully funded by restitution payments from immigrants themselves, requiring zero taxpayer dollars. Mike Lawler’s own words: “This is not amnesty. It’s accountability, it’s fairness, it is dignity.”

@CaseyB35427 @EvanAKilgore

Oh really? Tell me why you think “MAGA is dying”… no matter what, the Republican Party will always, ALWAYS be better than the left!!! What have Democrats done for the American citizens? What do Democrats have to offer outside of protecting illegals? The left never comes with any solution for anything ever! Their idea of “policy“ is opposing everything Trump does!😂 great “party” 🥴

MAGA is dying. The energy is gone. Trump turned out to be just like the rest of them. I say this as a 3x Trump voter. It sucks but once you wake up, you can't unsee it. Nobody is coming to save us.

And thanks to that their chosen one (Nina seems like a closet MAGA) is now committing genocide in Iran. Good for her!

@SimpleTech247 @FoxNews The only retard here is you.

@FoxNews Non retards knows President Donald J Trump isn't threatening the Iranian people but the radical, extremist, regime

🚨 BREAKING: Trump warns 'whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again' if Iran doesn't agree to deal to end war

@Christo46786552 @seandsweeney The city has been boom and bust since forever. Going back to the gold rush.

@seandsweeney People always forget that sf goes in extremely short 10 yr boom bust cycles. Been like that since the mid 20th century

On a flight back after 8 days in San Francisco. I’ve been back every year since 2021. City was buzzing this year. Bars and restaurants packed. People walking the streets. Delores Park body to body yesterday. SF is definitely back!

@seandsweeney @wongywongy It’s funny when the folks who can’t read a map are like “hey I’m in LA come for lunch” and I’m like “bitch that’s a 7 hour drive”

@wongywongy Sir that is LA :)

@jackisaidit27 @piersmorgan @realDonaldTrump If Jesus came back to day he would slap you for being retarded.

@piersmorgan @realDonaldTrump Not Happening @piersmorgan your idiot King won't even say " Happy Easter" so he doesn't offend your grooming gang r@pe gangs from Pakistan. There is No Allah. Only Jesus Christ 🙏 Bravo @realDonaldTrump

This is embarrassing, Delete it, President ⁦@realDonaldTrump⁩ - unless you want everyone to think you’ve lost your marbles.

@wirelessany1 @piersmorgan @realDonaldTrump

@piersmorgan @realDonaldTrump Stop clutching your pearls like a girl! He is the only one with the guts enough to obliterate the enemy. He is not your pansy ass king.

@piersmorgan @realDonaldTrump This is your guy, Piers. Why are you clutching your pearls now?

@Birny1971 @IRanMediaco A Karen who can’t read. How original.

@IRanMediaco You lying piece of shit. You kill protesters. 40,000. You assassinated an athlete for speaking out. You belong in hell, and Trump will deliver.

Dear Americans, Iran does not have the missile range to strike your country; if an attack occurs, it would most likely be carried out by your own GOVERNMENT or ISRAEL.

@bobwarder @IRanMediaco

@IRanMediaco iran has been attacking AMERICANS FOR 47 YEARS fuck off islamic ass hat....

@AmiEverAfter @my_fugue_state It caused me active harm. Ok, so there’s consequences to that. It teaches me that my health isn’t the goal here, and trust is lost. So anything they suggest is run through at least two GenAI platforms before I will even consider it.

In defense of doctors/NPs/PAs who do this in my state they keep a list of the top prescribers of schedule IIs and you can end up having to go before the board and defending yourself along with taking a class to teach you to not be a risky prescriber. But if a psychiatrist has a completely legit evidence based practice with an ADHD heavy case load they end up in trouble. So I see why they delay going to a stimulant but it hurts patients.

In accordance with perhaps the stupidest anesthesiology policy I’ve ever heard I have been off ADHD medicine for a week and I’m happy to report I’ve only made a few life altering mistakes.

@AmiEverAfter @my_fugue_state That’s exactly what my doctor did. The side effects of Cymbalta were so bad that now I shut down any antidepressant he suggests. “The last time you tried something like this it made in anorgasmic. So no.”

I’m team first line evidence based treatment where appropriate (moderate to severe ADHD diagnosed with collateral evidence in multiple environmental domains). Strattera can be worth a try in kids, mild cases, and individuals where stimulants are contraindicated imho. I really don’t like seeing it, Wellbutrin, and intuniv used as a step therapy to test people or jump through a hoop to get stimulants. People with severe executive dysfunction have a hard enough time getting themself to care. But I get the flip side concern of handing out schedule IIs too easily. Not saying the answer is clear but…I’m not team straterra.
