Extreme heat affects us all, but it doesn't affect us all equally. In Phoenix, legislation was just passed THIS YEAR, prohibiting landlords from preventing low-income mobile home residents from installing cooling shades & AC units because it "looked bad".

Wow, it's weird how the media narrative of a far right populist wave keeps crashing against reality in every country that actually requires them to win a majority of votes to take power

the other thing is that people have no sense of how much space cars and so they imagine that a road full of cars must be a lot of people when it very often is not. a well-used bike lane transports like twice as many people during a given time as does a road

a thing to remember, in all of this horror, is that these are not the actions of a political party that is confident it represents the will of the people, and who is currently out of power and enslaved to a deeply flawed avatar. the struggle is not over and they have not won

Saw stops are so incredible!! We have the technology to stop people from getting their fingers cut off for a fractionally small cost. Yeah it’s a pain to pay $50 every time you need the replace a saw blade but that’s way cheaper than the alternative of not having a finger

I like A16 for Italian Food in the Marina, R&G in Chinatown for Chinese food (my mom orders the fried crab every time she visits the city) and Burma Superstar in the Inner Richmond and it’s also close to GreenApple, a great local bookstore.

The majority opinion and dissent in Grants Pass refer ad nauseam to how complex and multifaceted the causes of homelessness are. But if you accept the overwhelming evidence that housing supply shortages are the #1 driver, then punishing people for not sleeping inside looks especially absurd.

The right wing majority on scotus legalizes bribery and criminalizes homelessness because to them, rich people deserve rights and poor people deserve nothing. If they were deserving they’d be rich.

On the one hand you have homelessness and high costs of living. On the other, tall buildings cast a shadow and density might be noisy. Tough call

What an incredibly frustrating and stupid answer. Your mind is broken if you go straight to noise and brothels. A person’s freedom to sue and appeal housing developments is an unfreedom to everyone else in the community.

Feeling an immense level of professional pride today. After countless community meetings, appeals, and delays San Francisco’s first affordable housing project on the west side finally broke ground. I’m so proud of my team and myself and I can’t wait to guide this project through construction.

We got tricked by science fiction into thinking a futuristic city is all about flying cars and crystal towers and hologram billboards but what it really looks like is nice apartment blocks, good mass transit, pedestrian zones with shade trees and safe bike lanes.

the @cayimby.bsky.social team took a tour of the Broadway Valdez neighborhood in Oakland, one of the most successful specific plan areas in the state which has produced 4500 new homes in the past decade
planning focused on public realm improvements instead of micromanaging the new buildings

Denver gave people experiencing homelessness $1,000 a month. Results showed that close to half of the participants secured housing, and nearly $600K saved in public service costs due to fewer ER visits & jail stays. They also saw improved mental health.
