the collective DC neolib freakout as the city is on the verge of electing a progressive YIMBY mayor in @janeese4dc.bsky.social is honestly so funny.

Black and white photo of five World War II-era US army soldiers standing in front of a held-up Nazi flag on a city street, holding guns, one wearing a Nazi armband and hat, posing for the camera. One soldier playing an accordion.

My grandpa was born in Stanhope, New Jersey in 1912. He went back to Poland a few months later.

In 1930, he returned to the United States age 17 as a US citizen. Here he is, left, liberating Europe from fascism in 1945.

Birthright citizenship forever.

Opinion | Democrats Need a New Promise: A House by 30

I am quoted in this essay which is cool! I also discussed with the author that without adequate supply growth, a demand-side intervention like this could just cause housing prices to rise further

building more housing is the key to making sure demand-side programs like this actually work!

What DC mayoral candidates should learn from Zohran Mamdani’s housing playbook The urbanist vote for DC mayor is there for the taking in 2026. What can candidates learn from Zohran Mamdani’s housing playbook in New York City?

For @ggwash.org, I explored what a "Zohran for DC" mayoral campaign would look like on housing.

The old political coalitions are breaking. Now is the time for the left-YIMBY candidate.

I’m willing to accept that day games in RFK II will look a lot better than older domes, even older translucent ones.

But what about night games? Because this CFP final looks awful.

Oh wait it’s outdoors. Maybe that’s just ESPN cameras + Florida?
