#DonaldTrump has repeatedly asserted that crime in #WashingtonDC is "out of control," using this claim to justify deploying the National Guard and federal intervention. He pointed to 2023 as a year of record homicides and carjackings, framing the city as unsafe.

However, official data from DC’s Metropolitan Police and the FBI tell a different story. Violent crime in 2024 reached its lowest level in 30 years, with homicides dropping 32% from 2023.

2/3
Preliminary 2025 data shows further declines: homicides are down 12% year-over-year, and carjackings—once a major concern—have fallen 37% compared to 2023. The DOJ confirmed in January 2025 that violent crime in DC is down 35% from 2023, marking the lowest rate in over three decades.

Trump’s rhetoric focuses on the 2023 spike, which was the highest in 20 years but has since reversed sharply.

3/3
Critics argue that exaggerating crime statistics undermines public trust and local governance. The push for federal control has sparked debate over the use of crime data in political narratives, especially when trends show significant improvement.

For context, DC’s homicide rate in 2023 was high but not unprecedented—it was lower than rates in the 1990s and early 2000s.

One thing for certain he will accomplish is completely tank the city‘s economy.


En 1996, le patrimoine des 500 plus grandes fortunes françaises représentait 6,4 % du PIB.

En 2024, il représente 42 % du PIB, en forte hausse depuis 2017 grâce à la politique de Macron.

Et ce serait à nous de nous serrer la ceinture ?

Trump's clueless use of tariffs is building up to be a catastrophe. He has driven India right into the hands of China. Presumably because of the sycophantic nature of Trumps cabinets no one has ever warned the President of these dangers. Trump himself is so unfitted for this job, he lacks concentration and knowledge, and his whole style is to serve his own narcissism. shorturl.at/wmMjS #RejoinEU #ClimateCrisis

I am 32,000 feet over South Dakota right now en route to a family wedding so probably no live coverage of the Trump event this afternoon from me. I won't be totally unplugged this weekend, but in any event, hope you have a good one.

The image shows a Sega Mega Drive 2 console placed on a desk. The console is black with a "16-BIT" label on the disc tray, and it features a power switch, volume control, and a reset button. A black controller is placed on top of the console, and a gray controller is visible to the left. The console is connected to a computer monitor displaying a colorful game scene, likely from a Sega game. A Sega Mega Drive 2 game case is visible in the background. The desk is cluttered with various gaming accessories, including a blue controller and a black bag.

The image shows two vintage SEGA game console boxes placed on a wooden floor. The box on the left is for the SEGA Mega-CD II, featuring a black and blue design with an image of the console and a label indicating it includes 7 games. The box on the right is for the SEGA Mega Drive, with a black and purple design, showcasing the console and controllers, and highlighting its 16-bit graphics and digital stereo sound capabilities. Both boxes are slightly worn, suggesting they have been handled or stored for some time. In the background, a bed with a green cover is partially visible, and a dumbbell is seen on the floor to the left of the boxes.

Morgen Abend ist nach der Arbeit noch Betriebshof-Feier anlässlich des 50jährigen Bestehens.

Meine Vorgesetzte/Kollegin/total nette Frau meint, ich soll mich rausputzen. Sie hätte was vor und außerdem wollen wir tanzen. 💃🏻🕺🏻🪩

Ich habe in meinen Kleiderschrank geschaut 😫🫣. Ich bin ahnungslos, aber vielleicht fällt mir morgen früh was ein. 🤔

Bis dahin bin ich erstmal im Bett. Handy aus. Der Jungspund gräbt immer noch.

Morgen Lieblingslinie 🥰

Gute Nacht Bande 💚




I spend most of my time on #mastodon reading posts, mostly without responding. When I post, I also think there are people doing the same with me. Yes, I can favorite and boost (and I do like to boost), but sometimes it's not a fit. I'm still pondering the nature of a fluid community of people who will never meet in person, but are community because of the need for expression and solidarity. While this is a pretty #meta post I have been wrestling with the strengths and limitations of this media.



I hope to be able to make it to the release of these two extremely precious harbor seals today! Juliet and Echo are rehabilitated and ready to return to the ocean. They are being released in Kenai today at 3pm. #Alaska #AlaskaMarineLife #HarborSeals #AlaskaSeaLifeCenter

That's really cool. But if 70% of the city plots in an area still stand vacant after 20 years, the prices are clearly too high!

maintenant qu'une grande quantité de médecins part à la retraite, il faut quasiment supplier leurs confrères plus jeunes de bien vouloir nous prendre pour patients... Un de mes collègues s'est même vu proposer de se faire suivre dans une clinique du canton voisin ...

@PatFried trois médecins partent à la retraite à la fin de l’année à La Chaux-de-Fonds, et au Locle, une doctoresse quitte le cabinet de groupe où travaille mon médecin. Selon la réceptionniste, cela représente 3500 à 4000 patients qui doivent retrouver un toubib 😱

I have spent about 5 mins thinking about whether to make a post about this or not.

Since it raises all sorts of interesting questions, I thought I should

I am not sure I agree with the content of the post

news.sky.com/story/miss-palest…

in reply to Totts

I forgot to mention. I also learnt to loathe Donald Trump not much later because of the Central Park Five, the Miss Universe competition and his general creepyness. Even though I'd stopped watching pageants, all those competitions were always on the tv news and in print media.

But, as I like smarts (and attractiveness) more than looks (not that I'd say *that* out aloud as I wanted to live), I had plenty of other people I found fascinating like Countdown Vorders (boo for her then long time conservatism), artists, musicians, scientists, writers & historians, and a lot of comedians.

Activists are the most attractive, though. 🙏

(Oh, no, I meant archivists. Too late to change it now!)

it will be wild to see what these people will come up with today. because i think they are going to respond today to my "final stand" email from yesterday

i already have enough to report them, since they already gave a definitive no. giving them a third chance to just make the update (with a GDPR violation hanging over them if they refuse again) is only for my own sake, because doing the legal stuff wastes energy i need for other things


my fucking phone carrier has decided to treat my new personal identity number (PIN) as a legally separate person and are refusing to update it.

they're either saying that they want to keep me on file as a non-existing male person, or they're saying that they want to cancel my phone plans, which would be a breach of contract, i already double-checked

so after two weeks of trying to make them do this, i am trying one last thing: sending them a "right to rectification" request as per article 16 of the GDPR. they are legally required to update the PIN they have on file for me

i can't believe it looks like THIS of all things is what i have to take someone to court over. wtf

i hope they realise how much they are fucking this up for themselves

:akko_badday:


in reply to Jasmine running

it actually doesn't matter if i'm their best customer or if they cancel my accounts effective immediately (which would be a clear violation of terms).

it's the fact that they are handling and storing my personal information that obligates them to keep it accurate and up-to-date. they even must store a lot of info on me for accounting purposes, because i am already a customer since a year back.

and as i mentioned in a followers-only subthread, all i need to do now is nothing at all. the GDPR and swedish telecom laws make it clear that they must update my PIN.

i guess that's why she keeps sending me more messages even though i have stopped saying anything new in response.

it's completely backwards—customer support is sending ME message after message pleading that I must do the thing, while I am just replying with the same two brief paragraphs ad nauseam

Ooh, discovered a Holly Leaf Cherry. Walk this trail every day and didn't know it was there! (Edible in small quantities, or processed). Prunes ilicifolia. #foraging #hiking

More info on this... apparently this feeds the Western Tiger Swallowtail and Pale Swallotail butterfly.

in reply to AI6YR Ben

Apparently this was a valued food of the Chumash here, but the pits... they are poisonous, but you can leach the poisons out before cooking. Similar to acorns. I wonder who figured out you had to leach all these plants before they could be eaten, and the process, 10,000 plus years ago?!?!

***there are bits of Chumash midden on this hill. Curious if a long ago relative of this tree was planted and/or harvested by those Chumash who were living here.
in reply to AI6YR Ben

A lot of things that need leaching (like acorns) are bitter before being leached, and many of the species that usually need leaching have occasional rare individuals that are mild enough to not need much leaching. So if people ran out of the good stuff, they may have tried soaking the bitterness out of the next least bitter...
This leads to a fork in the road: one way leads toward domestication by deliberately encouraging the ones that are good to eat, the other to processing technology.

in reply to Elyse M Grasso

OH. And of course, if you know of one inedible thing that can be improved by leaching, you are more likely to try leaching on other things. Especially during a famine.
