Must read thread.

Early in my career, I consulted for Coke to ensure sugar taxes failed and soda was included in food stamp funding.
I say Coke's policies are evil because I saw inside the room.
The first step in playbook was paying the NAACP other civil rights groups to call opponents racist

An allegory for what's happening with facebook right now:
Imagine you sell paintings. You have a little shop. Business is pretty good. Then, a big mall offers you a space. The mall is shiny and nice and lots of people and other sellers are going. So, you relocate.

The rust belt got crushed long before NAFTA. Decline started in the 60s and a lot of places were at nearly half of peak population by 1993.

Open the park to the public and stick the dock inside of it
24 Sep 2022
According to an email circulating this morning, it seems the Gramercy Park Block Association intends to contest the placement of a CitiBike dock at the park. The group (well, Arlene) cites it is “inappropriate” even though cars are allowed to be parked all around Gramercy Park.

Solution:
Stay off the Strip
17 Jul 2022
I have been on the Las Vegas Strip a few times when pedestrians were so bottlenecked that I was literally stuck in human traffic and unable to move. A big problem if there's e.g. a medical emergency. And a huge f'in nightmare if there's a panic or stampede.

And labor unions are one of the strongest opponents of single payer healthcare

That Starbucks is offering reproductive healthcare for its employees but warning it will not do so for unionized employees shows employer-provided healthcare for what it is, which is a labor disciplining device.

Here’s CA legislator @DavidOAtkins’ vision of where this may be going: a slow-motion but accelerating secession, powered by the court.

Don’t mock #Boomers. Don’t scorn #Millennials. Don’t impugn X or Z’s. The only way we’ll change unjust policies is with an #InterGen alliance. Don’t take the bait. UNITE

Some thoughts on the damage to or sinking of RF Ship Moskva. A 🧵.
The crew of Moskva were naval combatants engaged in a war of aggression against a peaceful nation. Congratulations are due to the Ukrainian coastal defense forces on successful elimination of a major target. 1/
