Pounds of butter should be packaged with 2 sticks salted and 2 sticks unsalted: cooking butter _and_ eating butter, in a single package. Thanks for coming to my TED talk

@KenjiCapital Am I mis-perceiving the floor heights? I don't count 8 stories.

@JohnnyWalsh__ As a non-Philly person: across the border to live outside the city? Or to live on the NJ side?

@YIMBYLAND laughed harder than I should have at "Hudson Yards containment zone"

@stefanoscalia A modest proposal: two completely different prices for people who have their phones on and at the table vs away/off: double for the former

@MikeHotDogMayor I'd be happy with a food truck that specialized in chicken parm (and eggplant parm for the vegetarians)

@AdamMayer My breakpoint was about $14 and waiting more than 20 minutes. People in the Bay Area seem to love waiting on long lines.

@yopotnawhiz You know what's getting me so much in the feels about @NYCMayor? The details: water fountains, night-lit soccer fields, and the whole snow-shoveling operation. Just great little quality-of-life bits that add up.

At some point we have to talk about how Julius and Ethel Rosenberg were executed for far less than what Donald Trump did and is still actively doing.

@mateosfo Transit-oriented YIMBYism is inherently pro-environment and lowers people's carbon footprints

[(((Matthew Lewis))) cults & consequences @mateosfo]

Man I've been making the YIMBY case against fossil fuels for 15 years and now Chevron just comes right out and ... writes a giant check to the NIMBY.

Folks it doesn't get more on the nose than this. NIMBYism benefits the oil industry.

@votewithsway I don't see special districts on the ballot download! I do see city and county. (Note that my address' school board and city council seats aren't up for election, so I don't expect to see them.) I'm running for a special district; would love to be included!

@hyphy_republic @rideact I want people to vote for me on my own merits. But I also want people to view how the agency is currently operating re: its respect/lack thereof of California law and its riders, and I want people to vote against that. 4/4

@hyphy_republic also would have been.

I'm running for @rideact board of directors on a platform of reliability, affordability, and agency transparency. The statement read at the meeting and the September 15 press release are clear indications of the current
_lack_ of transparency. 3/x
