My Spectacles are Rock Proof

[Marilyn Moedinger @mwmoedinger]

In several religions, there is a concept of Sabbath: taking a weekly period of rest from work, for conscious focused time with family, and for rejuvenation.

For many, it seems impossible - the dominant culture largely prevents and/or derides "rest."

When I was powerlifting, I learned that the most important work we did outside the gym was resting - literally doing "nothing" meant giving our bodies time to recover and come back stronger and more resilient than ever.

I'm saying this as much to you as I am to myself: find time for rest, rejuvenation, and refueling...even if it's only a few hours. Make a habit of it. Our minds, hearts, and bodies need it ❤️

@pushtheneedle Eliminate required set-backs or universally allow single stairwells?

Do you guys ever think about zoning?

[push the needle @pushtheneedle]

right now all our building codes mandate wonky shapes with tons of ins & outs to force setbacks and modulations. these do not work with wood buildings, only with concrete and steel ones. we need to eliminate these silly stipulations.

@pushtheneedle @DavidColeAIA All Three of those towers are being done by the same GC as they took over the project in Denny.

[Marilyn Moedinger @mwmoedinger]

Going to start a series called "sound smarter on the jobsite:"

If you're saying "cement," 99% chance you mean "concrete."

Cement is an ingredient in concrete, along with aggregate, water, and any admixtures. Calling concrete "cement" is like calling a PB+J "bread."

Everytime I’m told a tech startup is going to fix construction I go look at how many software engineers it takes to run a startup that sends daily affirmations or something and I laugh and I laugh and I laugh.

THANKS TO YIMBY-BACKED REFORMS OVER THE PAST FIVE YEARS, 60,000 ADUS HAVE BEEN BUILT IN CALIFORNIA. ONE IN FOUR HOMES BUILT IN LOS ANGELES LAST YEAR WAS AN ADU. IN MANY EXCLUSIONARY CALIFORNIA SUBURBS, ADUS ARE SOME OF THE FIRST AFFORDABLE RENTALS THAT HAVE BEEN BUILT IN DECADES.

[Dr. Samantha Hancox-Li @perdricof]

lighter than concrete, more fire-resistant than steel, strong enough to support an eighteen-story skyscraper: mass timber is the most solarpunk shit imaginable--

it's also an interesting study in what green industry actually means.
