FYI just in case it wasn't clear but I am no longer posting here—just replies and RTs.
If you want that delicious original Monday (the person) content, I'm @ lolmonday on 🟦🌤️

California has failed, decade after decade, to undo destructive and exclusionary housing policy that puts the views and asset appreciation of incumbent land owners above the right to be housed of young, new and lower income people. NIMBYism is a scourge.
The world is small and whatever industry you go into is even smaller. Beyond "being able to do the job," the most important thing about you will be, "Do people enjoy working with you?"
Focus on making the answer to that a "yes" and everything else will work out.

I think something most people really hate about electoral politics is that the question of who wins and who loses is in fact very important in a way that something stupid like Coda winning Best Picture isn’t.

Not to pick on national media but the fact that every time it dips below 32 degrees Texans need to prep survival kits because of Greg Abbott and the Texas GOP’s colossal incompetence and laziness seems like it should be a bigger deal

Barely a third of the transactions being taxed by LA's "mansion tax" actually involve...mansions. And as much as 50% of the taxed transactions may involve efforts to build more affordable apartments.

The microdata revolution confirms that new, market-rate housing benefits all renters, including poor people.
This study adds to the emerging 'migration chains' literature, which uses fine-grained data to answer the question, 'housing for whomst?' as 'everyone.'

I think a fully YIMBified Greater Los Angeles would grow into a megacity dwarfing Tokyo.

If anything bad happens politically in 2024 it’s because you personally didn’t make or amplify the right posts. We’re one good hashtag campaign away from fixing everything so the world is counting on you.

it’s never easy legalizing more efficient/affordable forms of housing in ATX. proud of our city council for taking this step chipping away at exclusionary zoning
Road fatalities are not natural or inevitable. They are a choice we have made as a society—one it's not too late to undo.

🚨 Austin City Council voted 9-2 last night to allow duplexes and triplexes, by-right, on any lot currently zoned single family.
This comes less than 1-month after Austin became the largest American City to eliminate parking minimums.

The answer: SO great!
Let's stop spending billions on highway expansions that harm our health, accelerate climate change, and waste our tax dollars and invest in rail instead. @rethink35 @RestartLSRD
How great would it be to take a train to see the @Spurs instead of driving on I-35?
Great panel with @JudgePeterSakai at the first annual 2023 Catalyst Summit by Austin Area Research Organization to talk about the future of our Super-Region!

Nobody without millions in annual income goes to Florida from CA because of taxes but lots go because of housing costs. Why can’t they talk about what they are talking about!!!
