    Delivery keeps NYC restaurants alive. The people delivering can’t even use those restaurants’ bathrooms. They buy their own bikes for hundreds of dollars, then suspect tech companies are cheating them out of tips. They’ve gotten very sick and very cold.

    My latest: The NYPD keeps killing people in crisis. With Kawaski Trawick, it happened just 112 seconds after cops got to his apartment, where he was hanging out, alone. NYPD hasn’t disciplined officers or released its investigation It’s been 600 days.

    ....the prosecutor who told and this law was “unconstitutional” just got fired. Read their story today. It’s important.

    In Arkansas, you can go to jail for falling behind on your rent. Why? Filing for criminal eviction is cheaper for landlords than using the civil courts. It's mostly women of color who suffer the consequences.

    Facebook also ran tests this year to figure out if “bad for the world” content could be demoted in users’ feeds. It could, but there was a problem: it decreased the number of times users opened Facebook.
