@tracewoodgrains I literally got Mr. Beast. My 7 year-old was impressed.

@tracewoodgrains The Seattle community centers are great!

[Holly Campbell @DevilMCare]

@AlecStapp Or, they could substantially downsize so a family with can live there. Why subsidize senior housing consumption?

@JackBirdest @mattyglesias He literally sends his kid to public school.

@tmaxftw @AlexSJacquez @GayBearRes Did you miss the NY legislator wanting to exempt pet food from sales tax? Politicians gonna pander!

[Holly Campbell @DevilMCare]

@scottlincicome Jones Act is the ultimate policy that cannot fail, only be failed. It’s been over 100 years, when will it start working?

[Holly Campbell @DevilMCare]

@Noahpinion The most highly localized control is letting property owners do what they want with their property!

@AlecStapp @razibkhan How much of that is in teacher salary differences?
You can buy a lot more teacher per dollar in areas with lower costs of living.

@bendreyfuss When I was a teen I met another girl on an international trip. She told me she was “from the Bay Area.” “Oh, which bay?” I replied. I thought it was bizarre she thought sf bay was the only bay that mattered. Where I was from, “bay area” meant Tampa.

@Alonso_GD I’d thought the connection was environmental— whatever stunted their growth (poor nutrition, in utero effects) also stunted their mental/emotional abilities. Obvs, height is genetic, but constrained by environmental resources.

@alz_zyd_ @GarettJones Hard to say without looking at the actual menu, but I find the difference in home vs restaurant steak preparation much smaller than for pasta (more complex sauces). So even if the literal labor costs are the same, I get more value from the pasta prep.

@SWENGDAD @confirmedterfs Across their lifetime? Yes!!! If you spend your 20s riding public transit, in that 10 years, someone will have rubbed at your butt/boob.

@ThatsMauvelous The part that puzzled me is that one of the largest expenses (child care) is only on a minority of families at any point, so how can it be useful in a population measure?

[Holly Campbell @DevilMCare]

@tracewoodgrains People talk shit on the weather here, but it is so beautiful and temperate and low bug in a way that beats everywhere else I’ve lived.

@jessesingal Meanwhile, they’ve been firing immigration judges. They’d rather have showy raids than swift due process.

@besttrousers @GarettJones This person also explains to overweight people that it’s just calories in and calories out.

@Ianpark62581273 @stanfordNYC Otherwise, the grandkids can’t grow up in a home, just rented apartments.

A retired, empty-nester couple feeling pressure to downsize because their property tax keeps rising as their home appreciates—is exactly how the system SHOULD work.

Apropos of nothing, good day to remind everyone:

“Dance like no one’s watching; email like it’s being read aloud at your deposition.”

@CartoonsHateHer I was worried my next door neighbor in her early 40s with 4 kids would have trouble after her divorce. Nope, good looking guy with nice car appears within a year! I know nothing else about him, hence being so reductive.
