The worst thing about suburbanists is that they don't mind their own business, they're not content just social engineering their own neighborhood for Big Car, they need everywhere to be like that. Urbanists don't want everything to be a city but suburbanists want everything to be the suburbs 💀

"a single person of this demographic may have committed a crime, therefore we must punish the entire demographic" is a policy response you may recognize from fascist governments dedicated to ethnic cleansing elsewhere.

A good deal of my time spent on the beach at Jökulsárlón is trying to capture waves hitting icebergs, without the iceberg moving (and being blurred). Occasionally it all comes together :)

the administration is laser-focused on making sure Americans don't get clean energy, so Saudi Arabia (Trump's paymaster) has someone to sell their oil to in 10 years when the rest of the world has moved on to solar+batteries
Picture how big the Hoover Dam is. An absolute unit. The Hoover Dam has a power capacity of 2 gigawatts (GW).
The solar farm that the Admin just cancelled could have produces 6.2 GW of power. That's more than 3 Hoover Dams.

Visited a stone circle in Kenmare today. Near the circle was a Hawthorne “wishing tree,” where people hang wishes for things they want to see in their or others lives. Most were heavy and heartfelt pleas for peace, recovery or reconciliation.
And then there was this person who’s very mad at Nancy.

So if the real problem is not the amount of crime, but people's feelings of fear... then wouldn't the real source of the problem be the people overhyping individual crimes in order to scare people?
Unless you *want* people irrationally scared about crime, in which case it makes perfect sense...

This is not true. Blackstone owns 0.06% of the single family homes in America. There is no market where they own more than 1% of the homes.
Nobody has a monopoly on housing. 2/3 of American households own their homes and rental housing is a VERY diversified and competitive industry.

as usual, Trump's clownish incompetence and lawbreaking gets retroactively covered for by his allies on the Supreme Court, along with the media they are the real power behind Trumpism
NEW: Chief Justice Roberts has halted the reinstatement of FTC Commissioner Rebecca Slaughter—whom Trump fired in direct violation of federal law—while the full court considers the case.
In other words, Slaughter just got booted from her job again. It's a worrisome sign for her ultimate prospects.

If you're 60, 69.1% of all job growth since your birth occurred under Democratic administrations.
If you're 45, that number is 74.7%.
If you're under 28, the number is 100%.
