Equitable access to natural resources (opportunity) helps prevent scarcity mindset, malthusianism, nativism and social darwinism!

True since the Frontier closed, at least.
Years ago I was skeptical of the idea of rape culture. But then we elected a rapist and the billionaire Epstein people all rape and then a lot of members of Congress rape too and I think perhaps it's a culture of rape.
Through that view, the 2D disk isn't strictly necessary (although still a very interesting and useful extension). 2/2
My understanding of the market-level view through AMM is that upzoning increases the stock of apartments in prime locations, which improves the utility of the marginal city resident, which lowers (floorspace and land) rents throughout the city.

Yeah true that, the fact they so quickly go to "wtf is happening over there" is indeed dire
Extremely excited to troll my theocratic Trump-sympathizing uncle with this when I see him next week.
If he can't bring himself to condemn it, I genuinely might call him a cuck.
And also high-info voters ✋

America is such an awe-inspiring place, I wish its leaders weren't pure evil.
Yessir, the Auckland unitary plan in the flesh
I'm a 35 year old man and just spent the day visiting my pregnant cousin in her townhouse, which only got built because of the upzoning I helped advocate for back in 2016.
I love the impact of the reforms I advocate for.
White nationalists love to post crime statistics to make the (flawed, obviously) case that black people are dangerous.
POTUS just posted video of a single murder by an Haitian immigrant, to make the case for deporting all Haitians.
Trump is somehow more racist, stupid & evil than a typical ynat.
NYT post: The Epstein Files Melania Trump Says She Was Not a Victim of Jeffrey Epstein Responding to what she said were smears, the first lady said she never had knowledge of Jeffrey Epstein’s abuse. She called on Congress to continue investigating.
My "I was not an Epstein victim" speech has got people asking a lot of questions already answered by my speech
But it's 4am in Dakar
"Did your friends attempt to negotiate a peace?"
"He refused to apologize, we had to let the ceasefire cease!"

That's just Georgism. Nothing you can do about that I'm afraid.
I'm a slut with stars, 3 is normal, 4 I had a great time, 5 peak (there are many peaks).
2 & 1 used rarely for when I really didn't enjoy it.
It's a 🌕 🌕 🌕 🌕 🌗 for me, mostly because I already loved the book and audiobook versions
It's just such a great format
