NEWS: My friends and I now own and run The Onion. I’ll be the CEO. We’re keeping the entire staff, bringing back The Onion News Network, and share the wealth with staff. Basically, we’re going to let them do whatever they want. Get excited. nytimes.com/2024/04/25/bus…
Part two of my series on L.A.'s lack of affordable family housing looks at proposals to address the crisis. Developer perks? Mandates? Fire code fixes? Co-buying? Reviving public housing? Everyone agrees about the problem. Not so much about the solutions. laist.com/news/housing-h…
We have the technology. The time is now. Science can wait no longer. Children are our future. America can, should, must, and will return to RSS.

LA City Councilmember Nithya Raman, a smart and courageous advocate for tenants rights and housing homeless people, wins out over $1.3 million of efforts from landlords and police and firefight unions to defeat her. latimes.com/opinion/story/…
Kevin de León, Nury Martinez, and Gil Cedillo colluded on tape to draw Nithya Raman's district out from under her. Raman will likely be the only one of those four who still has an office in City Hall come January.

👇 Insightful thread on messaging the housing crisis. “Shortage” implies a right number of homes and endless methodological fights to determine that number. “Spillover” speaks to people’s experience with the housing market, whether you’re looking or being displaced.
Housing shortages are actually housing spillovers. Everyone needs a home. So when we don't build, demand doesn't evaporate—it floods into other neighborhoods, other cities, other metro areas or even whole regions. 🧵
