It’s time to put an end to the NIMBY non-profit industrial complex. There are 100s of example like this where non-profits have taken it upon themselves to stop much needed development in the name of their mission. In reality, it hurts their mission and everyone around them.

If headline editors would just add “using NEPA” to every headline where it applies we would have real permitting reform within 3 months. Frankly they are doing the world a disservice by not adding those two words every time.

the only reason i deacc’d was to take a twitter detox break and reduce complexity for a while (not to create more drama!) but accidentally made all my friends concerned. im okay, everyone’s okay, and the singularity’s not yet here. i’ll just log off the normal way instead!
The Squamish Nation is doing exactly what YIMBYs want for the west side of SF with their Senakw project, citing that land use needs to be maximized for housing A multi-billion dollar real estate portfolio managed by an indigenous nation. It's something to replicate everywhere
"We should tear down other people's homes so that me and people like me can live there. We know what's best for that land." Y'all realize how incredibly colonialist this mindset sounds, right?
it's ok, i'm sure they can just get energy from russia :)
It's ultimately not good for America if Germany stagnates. But it's hard to avoid feeling (to borrow a wonderful German word) "schadenfreude" given their historical smugness & moral superiority vs Americans.

@AlecStapp The cities that build housing over the next few years will be the cities that run America for the next few decades.
We build! Rents aren’t nosediving nor do we have an oversupply, instead supply is meeting demand and prices are reacting - Economics 101 The media spin is ridiculous.
