Nick Simmonds @diacriticaz.bsky.social · 06/10/2026Jack Frost is 1000% correct here. Cities don't generate the destitute so much as absorb them. The suburbs export their problem children.

Nick Simmonds @diacriticaz.bsky.social · 05/10/2026I still think we're not fully reckoning with the fact that the greatest global trauma in living memory was ~5 years ago.
