I help make apartments in Nashville

Just an incredible privilege to be able to watch someone like Ohtani play

@BobbyBorkIII Actually the news about whole units quitting *is* contained in this thread. Amazing that my Twitter career ends this way.

[Greyson Jones @Greysontjones]

@BobbyBorkIII Not contained in this thread, but apparently entire units quit. So if code breaks in that unit, it likely won’t get fixed.

Word inside Twitter is that A LOT of employees are not saying “yes” to staying at Musk’s “extremely hardcore Twitter 2.0.” He has been meeting today with engineers to convince them to stay. His deadline to decide to stay or leave expired 6 min ago. https://t.co/IErjQTMRE6

@jbouie I was thinking for me. I think micro mobility is cool and I’d rather not pedal if I don’t have to, but didn’t know if there was something special about the pedal option that wouldn’t occur to someone who didn’t have an e-bike.

[Greyson Jones @Greysontjones]

@jbouie Honest question: other than cost, why this over an electric Vespa? Is it bike lane access?

[b-boy bouiebaisse @jbouie]

also, feel compelled to say that it is a bad thing that most americans live in places where they have to take out big loans just to have transportation to get around

[Greyson Jones @Greysontjones]

@wgobar I can't help you much on left-NIMBYs and I don't have One Article That Answers All Of Your Questions, but @PEWilliams_ is a good place to start on left-YIMBY.

[Greyson Jones @Greysontjones]

@BobbyBorkIII I only interact to like your memes or tell you you’re dead wrong and I will never change

[Greyson Jones @Greysontjones]

@arjunmenon100 Who are the two steep negative slope parallel lines? One of them starts on the top left corner.

[Greyson Jones @Greysontjones]

@BobbyBorkIII So the airline tweet is getting at misplaced nostalgia, Breezewood is getting at something presently much more real that we still have policy levers to manipulate.

[Greyson Jones @Greysontjones]

@BobbyBorkIII I’ll bite. The airline tweet is criticizing the present vs. an exaggerated, brief moment in time. Breezewood is criticizing the present by exaggerating it, but part of the reason the Breezewood tweet hit is that there are a lot of mini-Breezewoods and they aren’t hard to find.

@ATLgaytheist @capittalism That’s the football stadium

[Greyson Jones @Greysontjones]

Big is relative. Even the biggest development firms are often a group of smaller offices. The differences in local zoning and building codes means the industry is very parochial and limits economies of scale, so “big” developers don’t have the same advantages big business does.

[b-boy bouiebaisse @jbouie]

This doesn’t just drive up the cost of housing itself, it shapes the market for who provides housing in the first place. It *incentivizes* big developers over small ones, large expensive projects (to maximize your gains) over more modest homes.

@BryanBroaddus Stronger than he is right now or stronger than he was entering the draft?

[Greyson Jones @Greysontjones]

If they have no effect, then they are unnecessary and the government putting useless hurdles for people to jump over is bad

[Josh Barro @jbarro]

Like what on earth is your conception of “bad” if effects don’t matter? Stop with this deontological nonsense.

[Greyson Jones @Greysontjones]

I mean obviously maybe the other owner steps in or maybe JJ lives in the short term because he’s getting old, but point the Cowboys can take the long view of things in a way other organizations can’t.

[Greyson Jones @Greysontjones]

The Cowboys should leverage the fact that the Jones’s will be in power forever while other GM’s won’t be to get higher round draft picks way in the future. Like trade someone for a 2022 pick +2026 3rd round pick or whatever. The other GM probably won’t be there so why not?

[Mina Kimes @minakimes]

What's your goofiest sports take that you actually kind of believe? Mine is: If the Bills want to truly get the most out of Josh Allen, they gotta build a dome.

[Greyson Jones @Greysontjones]

@BobbyBeltTX What was the original deal he mentioned?

[Greyson Jones @Greysontjones]

Long reads about organizations that suck are my favorite form of sports content

[Greyson Jones @Greysontjones]

@CoStarNews @CoStarGroup @biz_moss Is the main building 425 feet tall or 510? There’s a discrepancy between this announcement and stories from AP, RTD. Just curious.
