New for @theverge.com: i wrote about how Kansas' trans ID law and the "age verification" systems popping up everywhere tie into larger efforts to force trans people to out themselves both IRL and online
AOC came out swinging against age verification legislation and somehow the entire tech press seems to not have noticed?
Democrats for the Illinois House is about to learn the same very expensive lesson we taught their senate counterparts in ISDF back in 2024

This form of reporting makes more sense when you realize it is meant to assuage its audience. It tells its readers that they’re not alone in wanting this to “just be over” and that they can drift back into the amnesia of everyday American life. That if they don’t see terror, it can’t be a problem.
In terms of Amercia writ large, I'd say so. In terms of individual cities, I could imagine that the cops shutting down large protests or labor actions might have been more despised.
I don’t like them either but I don’t think that you should be allowed to do this to them
cannot stress enough that "separate the art from the artist" was meant for private individuals reconciling the art they love with its flawed creators and not meant for the ceo of a company driving a dump truck of money up to a bigot's front porch

I wish more IL Dems would make the point that the reason we have a flat income tax written into the state constitution is a dead GOP trifecta from 50+ years ago. I think “let’s undo this bad shit Rs did that’s still fucking us up to this day” could be a winning message, but I’m just some guy
Shits bad! We've fully lost the fight on stopping our comrades from using neo-nazi terms. Hate this timeline.
the era of slopulism is upon us
Fairshake's anti-Stratton ads directly echo Krishnamoorthi's own attack ads with claims that she took money from MAGA donors and ICE contractors. It seems to me they're backing Kelly as a spoiler candidate.
people have got to realize that we are not getting Medicare for All without taxing the middle class. we are not getting free child care without taxing the middle class. we are not getting better schools and free college without taxing the middle class.

*in a resigned manner* Is this anything??
I saw these sandhill cranes above Rosehill Cemetery today. (Sadly, you cannot hear the cranes’ sound in my video.)
most of this article is literally just uncritically repeating the claims of a neighborhood group who believe that instead of building nearly 500 homes on an old factory site with an on-site metra station, there should be a library
repeating their term "overdevelopment" is journalistic malpractice
Ruin a movie by making it about Chicago elections:
• ALDERMAN (1989)
• ALDERMAN RETURNS (1992)
• ALDERMAN FOREVER (1995)
I am once again asking
It has been nearly two decades since District 10 has had a County Commissioner who was actually elected to office and not appointed behind closed doors.
Break the cycle. Vote for me on March 17th to elect a County Commissioner who commits to the role full-time.
