Us extremely online communists were shouting about this years ago, and equally extremely online "trust everything the Democrats do" posters were accusing us of not understanding politics.

an ad for a wooden"Die Hard" Advent Calendar where the villain Hans Gruber is thrown off a roof by vigilante killer Bruce Sixth Sense, and gets slightly closer to his grisly death each day, fun for the whole family, $50 at etsy!

over on the other site it advertised this item to me directly beneath his identical post lol

no, I know all about it, it's just that the focus of both groups are generally local spats with statistically insignificant net impact on overall housing availability/affordability. The problem is structural, and requires totally different stakeholders, efforts, and tools to "solve"

hell yeah this is sick

imagine thinking the present state of society is "healthy" lol

It's a me, Luigi

if you ever want to feel like a really unsophisticated rube, try mixing up Keats and Yeats when someone asks about that widening gyre poem. they're putting my callow ass on the wagon back to the turnip farm

no shade, I just wonder if people who use those words a lot understand that no one in like, a real meeting with the FHA and the MBA or something has ever said "Yimby" unless they were making a joke lmao

There's just "people who are ok with having brown neighbors" and "people who aren't," and in my experience they choose between these labels mostly on the basis of the type hyperlocal nattering-class controversy that always surrounds actual new housing stock production

as someone who worked professionally in housing policy at a high level for many years, I have no idea what a "Yimby" is; as often as these words get tossed around in lay conversations, they just aren't meaningful terms (or group descriptors) in real policy discussions most places

we're out here pleading for subs money while someone on a salary gets to write this dogshit

Be serious now.

you deserve better and will get it 💪🏽

so does everyone, kiddo. Politics under terminal capitalism is just the process of shuffling the allocation of the vast number of murders necessary to "sustain the economy"

but yes also bless our poor wives for it goes without saying we'd never survive this at all without them

haha nah he'll be fine, it's just how it causes you to adapt in ways that you don't expect and seem unlikely/impossible at times, but then you just like, go into animal mode and do it and it's fine. it's like slowly becoming a werewolf but it's just an older fatter you with weird new powers

no you were right the first time

yep, I do. and so do you, you just hide behind some kooky politics or whatever to justify it.

are you going to cry about it? Welcome to the human race, kid

I spent over a decade in a huge advocacy organization operating in every city and state in America, and contributing comparable amounts of campaign dollars to both parties as the healthcare industry.

Anyone who thinks it's a 'partisan' problem entirely misunderstands how our government works.

The krassensteins must be hawking some kind of healthcare NFT scam or something 😂
