    an increase in the use of force against Palestine may happen

    It may also happen under Kamala.

    All of this "Kamala might be better than Biden or Trump on genocide" is purely based on vibes and not based on anything she's ever done or said.

    Dawg they're wiping out Palestine now, under a Democrat. Acting like there's any daylight between Trump and Kamala in terms of what they actually do is just liberal cope.

    Painting a rainbow on the side of the bomb doesn't make it any less of a bomb.

    All in the name of South Floridian votes. The Dems will (hopefully) eventually realize they lost that state years ago and stop doing dumb shit for votes.

    Who knows, though? The American empire's thirst for blood and foreign suffering often seems bottomless.

    Baseball was a secondary goal in the construction of Dodger Stadium. The primary goal was to get rid of a bunch of brown people who lived too close to downtown for whitey to handle.

    When you understand that, the giant parking lot makes tons of sense.

    Hypocrisy hasn't been a gotcha for Republicans for decades. You at least got to give it to Democrats for learning this lesson.

    In the worst way possible and in defense of the worst policies, of course.

    Right. But Caltrain has had multiple full shutdowns over the last couple of years during the catenary installation. If they aren't able to maintain the tracks with that much shutdown time it's worrying.

    I was in SF this past week and took Caltrain down to Redwood City and back. I rode one of the express Baby Bullets, which is as fast as the diesel-electrics go. (The electric trains were sitting there at 4th and King, mocking me.) Let me tell you, I do not know how they think they can run HSR on this track in the state that it's in. This is far and away the bumpiest ride I've ever had on Caltrain, and I used to commute on it twice a day for two years. I'm actually concerned about the state of the track. It's great that they've run the wire, but I anticipate strict speed limits if they ever get the high speed rolling stock up from LA.

    I had to look it up. It was called Guardian of Atlas and Sean left the company right after the beta launched and then the game got cancelled. My guess as to why it went poorly is just that it was inexperienced devs making a game at a time when SC2 was still actually relatively popular. There was no space in the already tiny genre of RTS.

    Now that Blizzard has essentially abandoned StarCraft, it might be possible for some folks to carve some of that tiny market away.

    Showing all the balls by immediately coming out to say no to Medicare for All, yes to the border wall, and yes to genocide.

    This is the shit you like to see? Or is it perhaps that you believe in nothing and care only about aesthetics?

    Tearing down the properties has reduced their local property tax base and also no doubt reduced the values of the properties across the streets as well. It's creating a downward spiral of local tax revenue while no doubt increasing state maintenance obligations.

    Decisions like this are why small towns like this are going broke. They make themselves easier to drive through and tear down the properties that constitute their tax base.

    ...and the NLRB agrees with them. Seems like Nexstar is just trying to stall out the clock until there's another Republican in the White House who can gut the NLRB.

    The gist is that Portland drivers couldn't stop hitting crucial safety infrastructure (proving its necessity) so PBOT gave up on it. As one of the commenters pointed out: Since a pedestrian/bike fatality costs PBOT nothing and replacing a concrete planter a car has demolished costs them more than nothing, to balance the budget they're going to go with more pedestrian deaths.

    This is about the alleged food hall that was going to be coming to the Ritz Carlton Tower. They made a big show about how they'd be offering spots to the food carts they displaced. Well now e-mails are bouncing and there's radio silence from everyone involved about whether there even will be a food hall anymore. It sounds shocking, I know, but it certainly *seems* like the olive branch that they offered to assuage everyone's anger about the food carts they were displacing was a lie.

    Here's the fallout from Kotek's decision to stop all tolling, as well as a history of promises made and then broken about tolling. A couple of things I took from this article: * Oregon has reduced GHG emissions for most sectors except transportation * Tolling was part of the plan to reduce transportation emissions * Tolling on the I-5 Bridge will drastically reduce traffic on it, which obviates the need for more lanes * *Only* tolling on I-5 while leaving 205 free creates huge issues * The state was counting on tolling money for all of its projects, so car dependence is hurting car dependence, which is a small silver lining

    He filed a police report for someone brushing his shoulder walking through the aisle and then criticizing his homeless policies. Him not riding Max anymore has nothing to do with "violent and antisocial behavior" and everything to do with him being unwilling to face his constituents.

    Seems just as unlikely as previous proposals, and also way outside of town (technically Beaverton, but the course is owned by the city of Portland).

    This seems to not be based on safety at all and is probably Mapps and Williams spending money PBOT doesn't have because of complaints by business owners that are not based on data. Exactly the kind of stupid decisions I expected Mapps to make when Teddy appointed him.

    Some great displays of carbrain in this article. >DeSeta also likened one of the groups advocating for the open street, Transportation Alternatives, to the National Rifle Association. >“TA is a multi-million-dollar not-for-profit lobbying organization. And you know what non-profit lobbyists could be? NRA is a not-for-profit, so, ya know, not-for-profit is a loosey-goosey term,” she said. ... >Like DeSeta, Herb Alter, who lives at 103rd Street and West End Avenue, objected, as many opponents typically do, to the "process" by which decisions were made when he was otherwise engaged. During the pandemic, he said, he and his ill wife decamped to their East Hampton second home — and the first he had heard about the open street was at the local dog run upon his return to the city last year. Basically, a bunch of 70 year-old rich white people who live in a neighborhood where 73% of people do not own cars are trying to get rid of some intense traffic calming the city did during Covid because they lost 13 parking spaces. It boggles the mind that there are people who live in Manhattan and choose to own cars without a dedicated place to keep them.
