On the second episode of Hasan Minhaj’s new show, he highlights the role Saudi money plays in propping up Silicon Valley companies. Now @Netflix has removed the episode at the request of the Saudi government. ft.com/content/5121f0…
The episode was only pulled in the KSA.
"Clearly, the best way to stop people from watching something is to ban it, make it trend online, and then leave it up on YouTube."

Hasan Minhaj speaks out after Netflix pulls an episode of "Patriot Act" in Saudi Arabia. wapo.st/2CKVJLC

inlander.com/spokane/how-on… It turned out the real War on Christmas was turning it into a right wing ethnonationalist holiday.
Christmas was a holiday of love and family. Then Fox News made it a culture war thing, and now you have white supremacists setting up armed guards to defend tacky Christmas light displays.
What's funny, however, is that both sides of this fight seem to be in a war to show off how racist, classist, and just insufferable they are. Can't they lay down their massive arsenals and come together with the realization that they're all the worst?

It’s not every day that a developer wants me to coach their team on urbanism, & critique their partially built inner city project so next phases can be better. Looking forward to workshopping with @greenstonehomes & city staff on @KendallYards in #Spokane Washington this week.
The heart of #Spokane’s @KendallYards neighbourhood is the new/evolving main street — walkable streetscape, generous patio seating, human scale. Next phase can have more housing above the street providing more eyes & “body heat.” People come from all over to enjoy the new street.
Every good new main street, & every walkable neighbourhood, needs at least one walkable urban grocery store. @KendallYards’s grocery store #MyFreshBasket is more than a store — it’s a community gathering place. #Spokane #completecommunities #thirdplace

MARCO RUBIO’s HYPOTHESIS: Those against gun bans “want to prevent mass shootings, too. They view banning guns as an infringement on the Second Amendment rights of law abiding citizens that ultimately will not prevent these tragedies.”.
This is called the Scientific Method. To test his hypothesis (which means millions of lives), research is required.
RESEARCH BIAS; Rubio has an A+ rating from the gun rights group for supporting NRA-friendly legislation. According to the New York Times, he has received $3.3 million from the group. (Research bias,performing the research influence the results to portray a certain outcome.)
