The mobility of children is simply not taken seriously or viewed as important. Something illustrative is how people will often say that kids "don't count" when you remind them that children and young teens are nondrivers who deserve the right to get around without cars.

People who failed math knock the Harry Potter AI SA Cult as "STEMlords" but their whole shit is "rationalism" which is presocratic "I have derived that all matter is made of triangles" nonsense and rejecting explicitly empiricism aka science aka "looking at and thinking about the actual world"

the solution to pets in rentals is to prohibit any bans more stringent than the jurisdiction's laws on the keeping of animals. bad landlords steal security deposits, so let them put that money to work fixing whatever damage the dog caused If both landlord and doggies are good boys, no harm done

Completely false. I bought my house 40 years ago for $80,000, I could never afford this $600,000 condo, ergo it is luxury housing for people I don’t like. What is my house worth today? I don’t see how that is relevant and frankly it’s a pretty rude question for you to even ask.

add dams, aqueducts, bridges, schools... all the people who voted for Prop 13 did the math and figured out that they would only wear out from lack of upkeep right as the voters were dying of old age it's why we need repeal and retroactive gains expropriation NOW, while they're alive to pay.

it's important to remember that we are winning the "build homes so people can live where they need or want to" battle not because we have fun shouting at randos, but because the number of voters who are hurt by the housing shortage is now greater than the number who benefit from the housing shortage

Sincere question to the slop enthusiasts on here: If you can't be bothered to write the message, why should I be bothered to read it? The purpose of writing is for a person to communicate with others. The LLM random word generator does not have a mind. It's not even wind chimes.

Millennial planners: We are now over 40; our age makes us a protected class. When a Prop 13er living in decadent luxury comes to your public meeting to curse you out for projects that would lessen the midcentury mansion subsidies, declare it a hostile work environment and report it to HR.

In California, for example, YIMBY groups have pushed hard for major housing affordability bonds. SB 423 is primarily an affordable housing bill. When we had two dueling social housing bills, it was actually the traditional "housing justice" groups that were pushing the toothless study bill.

Anyone using weather as an excuse to advocate against safe biking infrastructure is a counterfactual asshole. Some of the cities around the world that have the highest rates of transit riding have real winter conditions. Riders deserve to get home alive even if it is chilly out.

California elected officials who actually set policy and are universally Democrats think it's awesome when people are killed by cars. If they could push a button that killed 1,000 extra people per year but shaved 10 mins off their constituents' average daily commute, they'd push it in a heartbeat.

This is a very important op-ed. I cannot ride a standard bike because of physical limitations. I have a real concern over the fearmongering around ebikes, that my only mode of personally powered transportation can be restricted, or taken away from me entirely. We have to stop this NOW.

Portland police hate the people of Portland. They tell us that every day with their words and their actions. I also have not forgotten what they did to Councilor Hardesty.

When the police were giving me the runaround instead of trying to find and cite the woman who HIT ME WITH HER CAR, the last cop I spoke with angrily told me “this is what you get in Portland.” I know that what he meant was “we do not give a shit about the community, we see you as a piggy bank.”

When the people of Portland got together in the 1990s to drive the Nazis all the way the fuck across two states to Coeur d'Alene, the Portland police sided with the Nazis and protected them.

​"Why not make all of the income-restricted units affordable at 30% AMI?" is the housing discourse equivalent of "why don't they build the whole plane out of the black box?"

Small business owners are not experts in transportation planning, parking policy, traffic safety, or urban design. Why should we listen to them instead of the city staff who do this for a living?

It really annoys me when people defending car dependency try to minimize the importance of mobility for children. Kids both want and deserve the freedom to move around their communities and they should be able to do so safely.

A tiny but satisfying post covid change in my neighborhood were the restaurants who realized using their parking lots for tables was a far better use than for storing cars. Miraculously, they sill have customers who can find their way there!

induced demand for housing: "hey, they're building enough homes for everyone who needs one: let's have more kids!" literally what the galaxy brain crowd thinks happens if you commit to ending homelessness, crowding, and misery. "we need to make life shitty so people have fewer kids."
