@voynitsa @barbarikon @ben_issen What percentage of the buildings in this photo are from the current millennium?

[Kevin McGuire @MelvinOSquire]

@rcmoya84 In practice, you can’t disincentivize the latter without disincentivizing the former.

[Kevin McGuire @MelvinOSquire]

@barbarikon @ben_issen To be fair, the slobs that run California have made it illegal to build basically anything new, so naturally there’s little if any new architecture.

[Kevin McGuire @MelvinOSquire]

@MateoBems @JerryTurin @bronzebust Because most people move for work, not to be close to nature. Why are Californians so delusional?

[Kevin McGuire @MelvinOSquire]

@SelenaC10705 @unsafebl0ck @xurbanxcowboyx How many vacant units should there be before anyone is allowed to build more homes, zero?

[Kevin McGuire @MelvinOSquire]

@SelenaC10705 @unsafebl0ck @xurbanxcowboyx Yeah but you love one specific type of vacant unit, right?

[Kevin McGuire @MelvinOSquire]

@ch3rryxx13 @GRIFTLESS Yeah you guys have really tried everything to fix this!

[Kevin McGuire @MelvinOSquire]

@nicholasjsoto @emnode @petersterne People are tired of anti-social behavior and want the laws enforced, what’s the problem?

[Kevin McGuire @MelvinOSquire]

@Jaselton @alexplitsas And the woman who designed the Vietnam wall was an Asian architectural student with no military experience. What’s your point?

[Kevin McGuire @MelvinOSquire]

@rcmoya84 @lazy_sorcerer Didn’t you work for noted slumlord Michael Weinstein?

[Kevin McGuire @MelvinOSquire]

@CompletedStreet NYC could be much bigger and better than it is, but it’s still awesome.

[Kevin McGuire @MelvinOSquire]

@Brien_Jackson Why are we same-washing these stupid arguments? Nobody making a stink over this verdict would be happy with anything less than an acquittal, and this kid was very obviously guilty.

[Kevin McGuire @MelvinOSquire]

@_mario_carter @SophiaNarwitz Her criticism actually goes way beyond the jury selection. She seems to be upset about the sentence and the verdict themselves. Personally, I think he’s just lucky the death penalty wasn’t on the table.

[Kevin McGuire @MelvinOSquire]

@KelseyTuoc @shlevy He was facing another 25 year sentence again last year after being convicted of strangling his girlfriend. Another piece of shit put back on the street through the efforts of activists.

@leighbeadon @barakgila @PippengerHarlo Yeah and it turns out building the entire edifice of public policy on housing and land use around the idea that tenants (and their heirs) are entitled to perpetual occupation of one specific home, no matter the cost, is really fucking stupid.

[Kevin McGuire @MelvinOSquire]

@maxdubler He’s fine with that, building nothing is his primary goal.

[Kevin McGuire @MelvinOSquire]

@xwanyex There aren’t many vacant lots in NYC, but there are a lot of under-developed lots. We need an LVT coupled with aggressive upzoning.

[Kevin McGuire @MelvinOSquire]

@estherzelda0514 @Brien_Jackson He stabbed a teenager to death for no reason…

[Kevin McGuire @MelvinOSquire]

@xwanyex You’re completely ignoring the fact there’s a large contingent of people making shit up and telling the rest of us that’s why the system is illegitimate.

[Kevin McGuire @MelvinOSquire]

@flyawayn0w The Military Industrial Complex is fine, actually.
