Only people with a secure material life have time to worry about a new 6 story building in their neighborhood. I’ve never seen a deliverista NIMBY anything.

Only people with a secure material life have time to worry about a new 6 story building in their neighborhood. I’ve never seen a deliverista NIMBY anything.
Are you kidding me? We’ve had decades of outright insane NIMBYism. Yes, it’s a pretty safe assumption these people are NIMBYs.
Well. This train probably won’t kill anyone, so that’s good.
Does she support building more homes?
Aroldis Chapman is a horrid domestic abuser
Yeah, The right-wing pundit class doesn’t actually want to catch the car. It’s always on the center-left folks to actually govern.
It’s pretty great!
Please aggressively upzone Boston. The city desperately needs more homes.
Fun fact: I was born at the Hospital down the road from this compound.
This will be rampant in MLB if they institute a salary cap.
Great, do you support SB 79?
The funny thing is Bluesky is just a better version of Twitter. No Nazis, porn bots or annoying boosted ads. Both sites are full of people that are too online.
This is evident in these newly popular live dating shows across America. Women often ask the men who they voted for, the men sheepishly (almost never proudly) say Trump. The women says thanks but not thanks, men feel the women shouldn’t DQ them for their vote.
If you don’t think politics is that serious, it probably is a bit puzzling to have family member cut you off for voting a certain way.
All this means is Harris voters treat governance with the gravity it deserves, Trump voters treat governance like it’s a reality show.
It’s not fully automated, it’s not at all consumer size, and good luck getting the cost down, not to Mention the maintenance issues.
Yes!!!
I really wish we could get to FSD cars, but I don’t think we will ever get there at scale.
Localism is captured by hyper preferential busy bodies. It’s completely antithetical to democracy and representative government.
Urban helicopter travel is perhaps the most anti-social thing an insanely rich purpose can do. I had the taste of jet fuel in my Mouth for Days after biking by helicopter landing on the east river.
I don’t see how any online pundit can sustain themselves for a long time. The sheer volume of negative interactions is likely to send anyone to a dark place.
Not hyperbolic at all, it’s straight partycide.
Somehow the illegal sites are easier and more reliable
Yes! I’ve sent several messages to Restler’s office over the years. There doesn’t seem to be a regular maintenance schedule. It just gets done when enough people complain.
The Fort Greene to Williamsburg cycle track is often very over grown.
Oof, blocked. Is this Hunter Walker?
Project Connect is Turning into CAHSR despite it being 1000x easier
And he’s not nationalizing his campaign despite all the pundits dying for him to do it.
This is what local control freaks are voting for.
Alternative media is worse.
How about you stop being a huge NIMBY!
Air travel is awful
Dollars to doughnuts that these noise pollution motorists are much more likely to be serial speeders, red light runners, reckless drivers, plate obscurers and sidewalk Parkers.
The Cats need more homes.
These people are just incredibly lazy. They don’t want to work a normal corporate job, so they grift to no end.
It infuriating, but even something like tree planting suffers from insane infrastructure cost bloat.
Parking spot bioswales would help with localized flooding, beautify the street and delineate curb space is a more geometrically sound way.
Instead, we should stomp on freedom, make bettors use crypto on shady offshore accounts, get zero tax revenue and empower criminal enterprises. Those are all Much bigger problems than legal online sports betting IMO.
Alcohol is many times worse than gambling, so it’s fairly hypocritical for the anti-gambling crowd to push for an online gambling ban but allow for near total freedom of sale for alcohol and weed.
There are stores that sell bews everywhere and we are bombarded with alcohol advertisements way more than gambling advertisements. Most Gambling is just considered gauche by elites, but alcohol, weed and even some drug consumption is considered ay-okay. I suggest people reevaluate their priors.
I laughed hard at that last tweet 😂
Yep, Bryan Caplan makes this point very well in his Open Borders graphic novel.
It’s been very bad. More destructive than gambling IMO. It should still be legal, because it would take squashing freedom and an immense amount of law enforcement resources to stop people from smoking weed. (All the while making criminal enterprise much more profitable.)
The media has always been in the tank for Trump
My favorite are the anti-means testers who demand all new development is affordable.
Are we banning porn on the phone next?
Gambling addiction is much less common than alcoholism. Are we going back to prohibition?
Are shots at bars a good thing? Is getting high as a kite a good thing?
Say you get your way and ban all legal gambling. Would your arrest me if I used crypto on a shady offshore site to place a 100 Dollar bet on the LLWS?
Awe yes, a gambling addict degen will Stop gambling if you make him walk down the street to place a bet.
Food is designed to be addictive. Alcohol companies make most of their revenue off of heavy drinkers. Weed has major problems. Should we go full Taliban and ban it all?
Casinos are not legal in most places.
“Significant number.” Dude it’s 0.000001% of the population. Get a grip.
The whole “don’t let them bet on the phones but let them bet in person” proposition sounds good but it doesn’t make sense. If Someone is such a degenerate, they will walk down the street to Bet on a kiosk if it’s blocked on their phone.
Are NOT*
Millions are getting addicted to betting on little league, get a grip.
Getting a lot of reefer madness vibes from the anti-gambling crowd. The truth is it’s regulated poorly. It’s a state sponsored duopoly designed to maximize tax revenue, not provide a good experience to the user.
Furthermore, alcohol causes way more death and destruction than gambling. You can’t OD on sports betting
youtu.be/DT-b1nK0v2M?... This is what you get when you push it underground.
The thing with gambling is your not impaired while operating a motor vehicle. And Coke? In my experience, Coke people do a lot Of Coke.
52-0!
Is that possible? People will just bet using bookies and offshore accounts via crypto. The war on gambling will be about as successful as the war on drugs.
Perfect? People were using crypto to bet offshore and syndicates to bet onshore. Hardly perfect.
Hell yeah!!
lol they deleted it
Well yeah it’s illegal to build homes
Another version of there are no adults on the room: Steve Jobs chose carrot juice of cancer treatments, Newton published a million words on Alchemy, Mozart famously blundered all his money and died in poverty. Everyone, don’t feel like an imposter! youtube.com/shorts/blERV...
Yeah, race cars are cool, but we don’t allow them on the street!
Gonna be funny when right wingers age much more rapidly than sane folks.
We can’t do slam dunk basic stuff like this, so frustrating.
5? Pick up all of them.
He did not almost win. If you ran the entire RCV without eliminations, he got less votes than Adrienne Adams.
No doubt the NIMBYist big city mayor.
Will Stancil standing up for anti-intellectualism.
Perfect encapsulation of the Bari Weiss persona.
Those are rookie numbers, we gotta pump those up. Jk, cheers to Zoharn, he’s a true urbanist.
Those are rookie numbers, we gotta pump those up!
Once again, I find myself breaking with legacy unions in NYC. There are 300 horse carriage operators, surely we can end this barbaric practice and provide these folks generous unemployment assistance.
The thing is homelessness is getting worse because we don’t build homes in our most prosperous cities. Get your head out of the sand, Will.
Lisa was very annoyed that Homer and Marge were non-voters.
Will thinks housing costs are irrelevant. It’s his dumb guy opinion.
It’s legal to build yachts and illegal to build homes
Left-NIMby’s are just NIMBYs at the end of day.
Are those townhomes subject to the same impact fees?
It could certainty turn into one given the demographic turnover.
I would love to get rid of all human drivers I just think is a tech-vangelist pipe dream.
💯
The closer FSD get to scale, the worst the experience because FSD can never overcome the automobile geometry problem.
1. That’s not very much. 2. They are losing money lots of money. Is there an at scale profitable model Minus the government banning human driven automobiles? Doubt it.
Banning Waymo sucks but Waymo is FSD cars have never proven they can work at scale and I doubt they ever will.
Hell yes!
Hard agree!
He’s done it to many others. He calls anyone and everyone a gentrifier unless they live on the block they grew up on.
100% agree. Timidity will not work. Motorists don’t follow rules!
I have to respectfully disagree. He made up a bunch of huge lies about me because I pushed back against his NIMBY rants on Nextdoor. He’s done the same thing to many other people
Hunter Walker should have zero clout in any progressive circle. He’s emotionally unhinged on top of not knowing anything.
There needs to be a public subsidy cap of zero dollars, not a salary cap.
💯
Not to mention, the NPIC creates fractured power and special interests that diverge from the simple goal of making people’s lives better.
It’s a reasonable take but I always taken aback about how behind the ball the business community is on housing and transit.
