Man I’ve been jonesing for a good list

desmigeo.bsky.social•36 days ago

Oh yeah that hit the spot. And Mexico content in the mix that's the good stuff

Is the Top 10 list still something the algorithm likes? I've been hearing about it so long the algorithm must have Ship of Theseus-ed itself a few times by now

I guess it still makes sense as a way to maintain attention

We need to talk Abundance policy. It's neo-liberalism and companies are just going to profit off taxpayers.
Ezra blaming Left as why housing not built. This is way more on capitalism of developers and landlords not building. True Leftism is building affordable housing, fixed rent and density

Buying a lifetime Nebula membership is one of the smartest things I've done in the past year

Well that’s a first, a CityNerd recommendation is a textbook requirement for a prior urban planning course I took 🤣 (The Sustainable Urban Design Handbook, to be more precise)

Dan Winters was unhinged for that take, even if he didn't choose the title of the article (as most journalists don't get to choose their article headings).

Even Jacksonville, FL has a Republican backing a bill to change zoning in certain areas to allow multi family housing, but the suburb residents pushed back enough to kill it. At least downtown is building apartments and townhomes on about every empty lot. The density is coming.
