Just a quick photo we took of the protest. Lots of support from local cars too, even when waiting in heavy traffic due to the protest! Only saw about 3 red hats. The Governor* declared a state of emergency for a completely peaceful protest. Lots of good citizens providing free water and picking up trash when the nearby trash cans had overflown. With my limited ability to count people in a large area I would guess 3k - 5k people. Also a picture of my protest sign which was a big hit!

Keep fighting everyone!

*Edit: It was the Missouri governor not the mayor of KC.

In a perfect world the board of directors would be forced to be out there cleaning up. But still nice to see that hopefully a corporation is held responsible. Good job Spain!

This is a huge disservice to special needs students. Being able to test in a smaller environment with less distractions is probably the only reason I made it through high school.

These NYC Tenants Fought Their Landlord—Now They Might Own Their Building in c/[email protected]

For a decade, the residents of 2201-05 Davidson Avenue in the Bronx have endured perpetual leaks, caving ceilings, cockroach infestations, rotting floors, and mysterious cracks in the walls, all while fighting their landlord for basic maintenance.

I’d take the city’s bullshit over this personally

Very good point, so we’re headed in the right direction

Correct me if I’m wrong but the problem lies in the fact that cameras can’t see through bodies, and usually there’s always a level of doubt about where the ball is regardless of quality of camera. We need a chip in the ball. This seems like nothing has really changed imo

Mavs raise ticket costs, cite 'investments' in team in c/[email protected]

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 months ago

They also just completely don’t care about basketball. They are there to collect a paycheck, nothing more than an investment to them. Anywhere they go should be weary of their true intentions

Fuck Niko, fuck mark cuban fake selling to trump supporters who don’t give a fuck about basketball, and fuck the nba. Why was there no physical to approve this trade? I’m fucking done. As a mavs fan I will no longer watch the nba

🚨 LUKA TRADED TO LAKERS in c/[email protected]

[–] [email protected] 12 points 4 months ago

Two years of luka basketball with the mavs absolutely outweighs this trade. One year of luka basketball (the rest of this season) absolutely outweighs this trade. The mavs, being upset about his conditioning could have literally shopped around the league for more than this crap. This is a complete and utter failure on behalf of the mavs and in my opinion a sell out from the new owners who don’t care about the future of this franchise and don’t want to pay luka his super max contract he very much deserves. I am a Mavs fan so all of this is extremely raw, but it’s so hard for me to see this as any other way than how I see it right now
