Corporate media: “the manifesto! the ravings of a madman, twisted and incomprehensible” The manifesto: “UHC is almost as big as Amazon but all it does is take your money and then not use it to pay your doctors? Uhhh why don’t we just fucking kill these people”

If we want better fashion culture in the US, we have to lower the cost of housing and commercial real estate, support independent craftspeople, build denser neighborhoods, improve walkability, and get rid of overly restrictive zoning laws. Let kook culture thrive.

Instead, we should look to history, path dependency, institutional structures, politics, and economics. For Tokyo, I think urban planning—walkability, mixed use neighborhoods, affordable real estate—all contribute to the richer media and commercial systems that feed into culture.

democrats are like “we did a bunch of weak sauce means-tested technocratic bullshit that nobody even noticed and then we didn’t even get any credit for it”
Tweet from Sen Chris Murphy that says 

“The child tax credit, increased ACA subsidies, and student loan forgiveness helped people. All good policy.

But it didn't move people emotionally to our side. Why?

Maybe because most people don't want a handout. They want the rules unrigged so they can succeed on their own.”

we have no idea what the distribution of responses looks like, so including 6 years of <18yos could completely skew the results. or it couldn’t. point is we don’t know and making sweeping generalizations about generations is kinda pointless here.

i’d say being 30 years behind current income trends is far more egregious than teens thinking they need to be famous to be successful. especially given that one group has the benefit of decades of hindsight and the other is pretty much children.

gilbert @shutupgil.bsky.social · 22/11/2024
even if you're making 150k, you're punching a clock for someone else and that's not how kids are defining success these days.

gilbert @shutupgil.bsky.social · 22/11/2024
yeah, i was trying to find a way to word it, but given what they've seen re:wealth inequality in their life, i'm not totally shocked that they would define success as "not having a 9-5" rather than "I can afford everything I want"

My 6yo asked me tonight if we would go to jail for helping refugees in Chicago. Last year we had scores of people come through our house to cook, bathe, & wash clothes over the course of 2 months. We got to know many people & still keep in contact with a few families. This is a terror campaign

By my calculation, 37% of parcels within a half mile of an 'L' stop are zoned for single-family housing. That's pretty embarrassing, but some lines are much worse than others. The O'Hare Branch of the Blue Line and the Brown Line are particularly bad.
