You are probably right about that. My first assumption was “those are republican parts of the state and that’s why he’s enforcing housing law there instead of in places where it makes sense.” The prison correlation may be a coincidence or may be part of why the places are so red in the first place.

Half or more of these jurisdictions include or are near major prisons with chronic staffing problems. For whatever that’s worth.

Hey @sierraclub.org, you own this. Absolutely impossible to take the national org seriously when your local chapters are fighting farmworker housing on the grounds that five (5) stories is too tall. Grow a fucking spine and denounce this shit. Now.

I suspect a wildly disproportionate share of that time is Muni, not Bart. Getting from market st to dogpatch etc. is simple but just painfully slow (for no apparent reason)

Taken from BART just now between Ashby/macarthur. It’s gross out there.

That’s nothing compared to the gushers-era innovation of the early 90s. Like comparing the revolution that was indoor plumbing to Siri in terms of impact on human wellbeing.

Here's some legislation I'm almost surprised not to have heard any member of Congress propose yet:

Citizen Kavanaugh Stop Compensation Act:

For every hour or part thereof, beyond the first 30 mins, that a U.S. citizen is detained by ICE, that citizen is paid $500. Paid from the ICE budget.

Bottle of wine meme. Top: Thanks for having us at your lovely home.

Middle: Look I just think we need to add more housing in the places where people want to live, like near jobs, schools, and transit

Bottom: Single family zoning was explicitly invented as a facially race-neutral policy to preserve residential segregation and
"local control" is the "states' rights" of our time.

Wonderful news for those who care about fixing California's brutal housing shortage, bolstering transit ridership, and meeting the state's climate goals!

Lots of excitement over SB 79—understandably. I would add, every single bill California YIMBY sent to the governor was signed today. www.gov.ca.gov/2025/10/10/g...

In early 2025, beaver activity in the Brdy Protected Landscape Area, Czech Republic, contributed to the restoration of a wetland ecosystem. A family of beavers constructed a series of dams that coincidentally accomplished environmental goals of the Czech government, which had delayed its proposed project since 2018 for bureaucratic and financial reasons. The beaver-built dams saved the Czech government approximately US$1.2 million,

As institution after institution caves in to him, he’s emboldened to escalate — now seeking to bankrupt the NY Times for not endorsing him or giving him favorable coverage.

Bending the knee to an authoritarian doesn’t make him stop. It makes him more aggressive.

We must fight back. No more caving.
