May 6th: Austin ISD will cut 215 educator salaries for next school year as it faces a $181 million deficit. May 21st: Council delays zoning case on Austin ISD parcel until September, preventing $26 million cash infusion for financially strapped district. Great job @mikesiegeltx.bsky.social

Last year I decided I was no longer satisfied just posting about housing. So I started a company with 3 other incredible dudes with the mission to build missing-middle housing at scale. Introducing... The American Housing Corporation It’s time to rebuild the American Dream.

If you cheer on the murder of someone for exercising their speech, you are infinitely closer to being a Fascist, than a Liberal.

My friend who runs a restaurant in Austin sent me this video of the ads that are playing on Pandora Spanish radio stations. Every commercial kitchen in America is hearing this. Straight out of a dystopian horror film.

"Mom, how did we get so rich?" "Your dad went to every city council meeting and said no any new housing in our city."

For some reason, online leftists have the hardest time understanding the difference between politics and policy. AOC understands the difference… that’s why she’s a populist in the streets and a YIMBY in the sheets!

China’s High Speed Rail overlaid on the US I, for one, thought we were done rolling over and letting China win on the world stage. We used to build hard things in America, but apparently now we just leave that up to the Chinese.

I guess I shouldn’t be surprised that anti-abundance folks are incapable of chewing gum and walking at the same time. Nevertheless, these folks never cease to surprise me with their small-mindedness

Too many people are like “YIMBY means this”, “YIMBY means that”…. YIMBY means YES to more housing. Literally just Yes, let’s build it. Make it easier, make it faster, make it legal to build.

[Timeline Cleanse] The Domino Sugar factory project by Two Trees is one of the best redevelopments of industrial land in American history. Every city needs a project like this. - 2800 Homes (700 affordable) - 600k sqft office - 200k sqft retail - 5 acres of a waterfront park

You are shopping for an apartment, You find a 1bd with a walk-in closet and a 1bd with an additional office/den but has a normal closet. They are the both 800sqft. Which one are you choosing?

Not to be political… just thoughts… If I was a republican operative, I’d try and isolate Elon from every single race as much as humanly possible. He’s political poison right now and this Wisconsin race proves it. Blowing $26 Million and still getting your ass beat is crazy.

YIMBYs formed a movement around the most boring minutiae of local law and somehow have grown it so much that now the opposition is calling us a cult. I call that a smashing success.
