Why State Housing Reform is Failing (and What We Can Do About It) | Strong Towns
Statewide zoning reform isn't producing the wins everyone expected. An architect reveals why: the permissions may have changed, but the reflexes never adapted.

It's funny how a kinda questionable choice to make an all-women race in a 1998 game
Led to a 2017 game making a serious effort to design and world-build the culture of an all-women warrior race
Which led to Age of Imprisonment having the biggest set of dark-skinned women in any Nintendo game.

I like these three. He’s also done a bunch of pro-vaccine stuff that I like to recommend to conservatives because but that wouldn’t be informative to the BlueSky audience.

Much worse than America: their government might be crazier but there is actual resistance, unlike here where the majority response is sullen apathy. It’s far easier to see the end of Trumpery than it is to ever see Britain snapping out of its Children of Men phase, which was created by elite consent

Again, notice how much worse this is than Trump’s America. There is meaningful resistance to this bullshit across the Atlantic. There is no elite resistance to it at all here, because these people have driven themselves insane and stomped all over anyone who objected to their horrific behaviour.

Labour's fundamental dysfunction is that it is the nominal representative of the left hand side of the political spectrum but its leadership class hold progressive politics in genuine, visceral contempt. Obviously that doesn't work. How could it?

If they don’t already hate you and work to fuck you up, then sooner or later they’re going to roll dice and consult their little table of petty hatreds, and it’ll be you that’s next.
Freeman's going to whittle down the whole of humanity until the only people who are socially acceptable are herself and daughter-marrying elderly filmmakers who have been credibly accused by the children they didn't marry of abuse
then, the transphobes , feeling victorious at how many people they have made unhappy and despairing in the previous week, move on to anything else that has a spectrum and the possibility of more colours than they can conceive - such hateful people - they cannot understand anything that is not THEM

For reasons completely unrelated to any opinions about regulatory policy, a Day 1 executive order here in the US should be ending every government agency account on X. Just delete them all, plain as that. For the same reason the US government need not have accounts on Stormfront or 4chan.
Pretty crazy that nearly all of the EU Commission is still on X even as Elon Musk is literally talking about destroying the EU.
You can leave X. It's really not that difficult.
