The majority of the housing attorneys in the division that I am familiar with all left. It's just sad. The few who are there still are trying to hold on and do good things.

Ossoff and El-Sayed took different tacks tonight vs their opponents—El-Sayed was more of a subtext of “you dumb fucking racist jackass” while Ossoff’s was more “if you fell down at a gas station I’d toss a lit match on you”—and I don’t think either of those is a bad choice tbh

Was trying to locate someone for work purposes today. Contacted the landlord and asked if they had a forwarding address. "Oh, last we heard she was arrested and is incarcerated." Oooohkay.

Incredible to see the "experts" on resolving the housing emergency that Spain is experiencing! On every television! @telediario_tve @ANoticias
@tele5_noticias @noticias_cuatro The reality is that we have politicians who try to create decrees and solutions when they lack the preparation or knowledge to devise a real solution to the problem we're facing.
Spain doesn't have a problem of a lack of decrees. It has a problem of a lack of housing.
And as long as the Government keeps confusing announcing measures with solving problems, we'll keep paying the consequences of its inaction.
Subsidizing demand without increasing supply pressures prices. Regulating a market more and more without building new housing doesn't eliminate scarcity: it manages it. Taxing a type of rental can change incentives, but it doesn't lay a single brick either.

Because housing doesn't get cheaper by distributing scarcity. It gets cheaper by ending it.
Spain needs to build. A lot.
More available land. Permits in months, not years. More density wherever possible. Legal certainty. Much more public housing and also private housing.
But the Government isn't doing what's necessary. It prefers to intervene on the few homes that exist rather than create the conditions for there to be many more. It prefers to present patches as solutions and load the cost of its failure onto owners, developers, and citizens.
The rest can serve to redistribute, protect certain groups, or change incentives. But let's not confuse that with solving the underlying problem.
You don't fix a lack of housing by better distributing the few homes that exist. You fix it by making many more exist.
Less propaganda. Less patches. Less obsession with intervening on the same apartment.
More supply. More construction. More homes.

I feel like this is a right of passage for anyone who regularly takes public transportation. I remember in undergrad at Berkeley we'd do this to try to catch the last BART train back to the east bay & we'd get stuck in SF and have to wait an hour for the transbay bus. Eye opening, since I am from LA

I was looking at e-scooters to get me to/from BART, but then realized that there are no bike lanes on that route, considered the people I encounter driving every morning, and said nah, I'll pay for the gas, as it's probably safer.

One of my direct reports has been hit twice by an adult on an e-scooter - once while he was on his ebike in a bike lane and once on the sidewalk. Both required ambulances. It’s not just a teen problem! People don’t realize how much damage they can do

This type of thing is not unheard of in (ultra)marathons, but I just poked around. I guess this is indoors and they share equipment, and use the same track for each run, and people would be doing pushups and other things in the space she just did hers...so ya, gross.

I was pretty miserable. Even accounting for the impact of law school, it was just really hard for me because of the people, the culture, the weather, the terrain, the food. I went to DC for a bit after, and it was way better, but in the end, I know I will never be able to live outside of CA happily.

When I went to law school in St. Louis oh, 20 years ago, my fellow Californians and I created a social media group entitled "Stop Immigration: Build a Wall Around Missouri" and the intent was *very* much to keep what we pronounced as Misery contained. Place was wild.
