Lutz Gerhard @lutzgerhard.bsky.social · 25/03/2026When do we pull the trigger. The thing the NIMBY's want: less housing, more character, no public transit, require such massive car infrastructure to get people from the suburbs to the jobs, that it basically would bankrupt the ciry and state. It's time we said CATEGORICAL NO TO NIMBYs. 010
Lutz Gerhard @lutzgerhard.bsky.social · 20/02/2026I'm just going to completely stop supporting business that reject simple measures to make life better for people because it would mean removing car parking.

Lutz Gerhard @lutzgerhard.bsky.social · 15/10/2025In NE Seattle, Rivera won by 235 votes, causing the council to swing NIMBY, causing housing to be delayed in Seattle and could cost us in WA, because of lack of new residents, an electoral vote in the next election.

Lutz Gerhard @lutzgerhard.bsky.social · 02/07/2025The autonormative/car-first/car-only mind in seattle is so strong. So rather than putting in safe bike infrastructure now, which noone opposes, let's wait until we get FIFA funding to add a new light - no turn from yesler onto first. Why wait?

Lutz Gerhard @lutzgerhard.bsky.social · 07/01/2025I am reading a lot of people upset about the RTO Amazon policy and how bad traffic is in Seattle as a result. You should be angry at this council that continues to invest in the status quo of car dependency, blocking alternate ways to get to work safely and quickly and housing near where you work. 010
