People seem to be confused. When workers are paid less than a living wage, they’re forced to rely on taxpayer funded social safety nets to survive. That’s not a taxpayer “handout” to workers. That’s a taxpayer handout to corporations.

BREAKING: DePaul University students launch their encampment in Chicago
This:
A new investigation reveals that meat processor Tyson Foods has been dumping toxic pollutants into rivers and lakes for the last five years. They've dumped enough chemicals, and blood, bacteria and animal feces to fill 132,000 Olympic pools. theguardian.com/environment/20…
Donald Trump wants states to track your menstrual cycle, and Republicans think that ISN’T a violation of your rights. They don’t want states to track your gun purchases, because they think that IS a violation of your rights. Guns have more of a right to privacy than women.
I know and respect people who won't vote for Biden because of Gaza, or for other reasons, and I don't think that's stupid or irrational. However, on behalf of my two uterus-having kids and everybody else capable of getting pregnant, I ask that everybody consider this statement:

Commenter on 1A piece about protests: "Setting up tents is unacceptable. Blocking traffic is unacceptable." Protests are disruptive. That's how they work.
This is Time Magazine.
Listening to an NPR piece on NYC congestion charges & the guy is saying "they" created traffic by limiting motor vehicles to one lane and my dear man, it is the DRIVERS who are creating the traffic.
It’s absolutely pathetic our politicians refuse to have the courage to confront the crisis of gun violence in our country so instead first responders, our teachers and our students pay the price.
useful reminder for campus administrators considering confrontational tactics vis a vis the pro-Palestinian protestors
1. Millions of Americans may lose their internet access TOMORROW Among those impacted will be 90,447 people in @SpeakerJohnson's district alone It doesn't need to happen. But Johnson is making sure it does Follow along for details 🧵
One last thought before bed: The "it (fascism) can't happen here" folks are the same people celebrating students getting beaten and tear gassed by the police. They don't realize "it" is already here, and that "it" is them.
Imagine having a bike shop in our train stations!

What goes on in my yard when I'm not there and part of the reason I installed the security system. I can see what they are doing and if they need anything or if anyone is bothering them.
People seem to be confused. When workers are paid less than a living wage, they’re forced to rely on taxpayer funded social safety nets to survive. That’s not a taxpayer “handout” to workers. That’s a taxpayer handout to corporations.
McDonald’s reported $1.93 billion in profits for Q1. The average McDonald’s worker is paid less than a living wage, and is forced to rely on government assistance. Their profits are our tax dollars subsidizing their poverty wages.
Once again, driving turns some motorists into homicidal maniacs... It's very difficult to do the right thing.

Planning an urbanism-enthusiast trip to Milwaukee in a few weeks. Mainly interested in a non-Chicago, Midwest density experience and how it impacts walkability/connectivity. Anyone have any trails/transport/urbanism must-sees, or where to stay recommendations?
Damn that's wild
Ok but YIMBYism is obviously right wing lol
@mollyfleck We love taking long walks to ours! And then bus or walk home. *gasp* with our 9yo.
@mollyfleck Oh the joys of walkable neighborhoods - we walk to ours! The brewery (Printers Row on the NW side of Chicago) also welcomes kids and throws family friendly block parties during the warmer months - they are fantastic members of the community and I love them for it! 🍻
@mollyfleck I picked my house because I can walk to two breweries and transit to dozens more. Ok, not exclusively because of that, but like 40% because of that.
@brookebikesmke It’s irresponsible to drive buzzed with your kids in the car but it’s normal to drive buzzed if it’s other people’s kids in other people’s cars on the road.
