If you 1) don't think growth should be concentrated in gentrifying places; 2) want to stop the planet from boiling; AND 3) want to prevent the atomization of communities through auto-sprawl... Growth needs to occur in middle/upper income neighborhoods near transit and jobs.

Most displaced people do not tell a story of being pushed out by high prices, they tell a story of finding lower ones.

@tmccormick @FeargusOSull @PressYimby @SonjaTrauss Weirdly my student daughter, doing undergraduate history degree, is writing her Extended essay focusing on Barbon.
@ben_rog @FeargusOSull @PressYimby @SonjaTrauss that's amazing! perhaps we could confer, even exchange, as probably coming from usefully different directions (our Apology edition, from Bay Area housing & maker/builder advocacy, improbably; she, more scholarly). In London's long tradition as trade hub real, virtual, & symbolic.
@mmelibbington oh wait that's a sign? I thought you meant he was mandating people get vaccinated on the overpass😂
I can think of a metric by which Biden didn't run a terrible campaign
The big takeaway of the primaries is that the Dem establishment is way more powerful and unified than anyone gave it credit for. Dem leaders don't want to say that out loud because it would implicitly admit that Biden won big in spite of running a terrible campaign by any metric.
@DavidKlion There are enough voters who are skeptical of your program that even doing a better job isn't enough. So you either need to compromise on your program or do an even better job assuaging their skepticism. Why invoke shadowy powers to explain what's hidden in plain sight?
@PressYimby @ConorDougherty 's Golden Gates is a nice intro that covers a lot of ground and mentions a number of other books. I think it's what I'd recommend right now as a starting place, even if it's very California centric
Per Sup. Stefani's office, Palace of Fine Arts to be used as emergency shelter.
Reminder: Warren can't win if you don't vote for her, and if you don't this is the bullshit you're going to get instead.
We need affordable housing for all instead of more gentrifying luxury developments for the few. I stand with the longtime residents of East Boston fighting displacement from the communities they have spent generations building. bizjournals.com/boston/news/20…
