The Biggest Myth About the YIMBY Movement There’s nothing centrist or conservative about the push to lower housing costs.

YIMBY is progressive, populist and antitrust. Not centrist. Not Reaganite.

The Atlantic published my piece and I’ve included a gift link.

I am loving the new season. I haven't watched episode 3 yet, but last week's was *chef's kiss*.

Seasons 2, 5, and 7 are also my favorites. Joe Wilkinson's potato toss, anything that Aisling Bea or Nish Kumar do, and James Acaster negging Alex are all-timers

My family's health insurance premiums are more than $20,000 per year (my wife, my daughter, and me). This system is insane.

A small tariff that is paired with a robust industrial policy, including subsidies, as well as government support for unions (again: what Biden was doing) works. Jacking up tariffs by itself, especially to these levels, is suicide for the country and its working class.

It’s funny how the Wine Mom Analysis, that Trump is an insane con man, fascist, and possible Russian plant who has seized the US government as a kind of invader, is dramatically better and more accurate than the Very Serious Person Analysis that he’s a clear continuation of long-running trends

This is of course the hard and immutable reason why you cannot compromise with transphobes on trans participation in sports: there is absolutely no way to do so that doesn't end in sexual assault.

Bill McKibben keynoting YIMBYtown this year really cements something I've been saying for a while: housing policy is climate policy, and the YIMBY movement is a green movement.

Safeway currently has an option while checking out to "donate $1 to end hunger forever". I can only think of one way to end hunger forever...

A large swath of small medium businesses literally cannot exist under the tariff regime.

I didn’t say “struggle”, “downsize”, “sell off”, or “merge”

I am saying that there is a swath of the American economy that, a-priori, cannot exist under the tariffs.

They will become insolvent and liquidate.
