We’ve confirmed that Hall Greenland, who identifies himself as co-convenor of NSW Greens, is leading this Lords Rd campaign.

His primary political animus in recent years has been preventing apartments near his house, and he’s had the local MP on speed dial to help every time.

@rochelled270 It rules. And Declan is a style icon, I must have his tie collection immediately

Personally I reckon Albo’s ban doesn’t go far enough. The takeaway from the US election is clearly that everyone should be banned from social media, and possibly the entire internet. Just burn it all down and start again.

Thank god zoning protects us from hellscapes like this

@grugstan So they would be interacting with students’ questions about/comments on the lecture material in real time. And students interacted with each other as well. I think it was a richer experience than either a “regular” online lecture or a face to face lecture.

[Donherra @Donherra]

@grugstan I think it depends on how it’s delivered - it doesn’t sound like this is what’s being proposed, but one of the best units of my masters had online lectures that could be watched at any time, but if you joined at the scheduled “class time” the lecturer was in the zoom chat 1/2

Build and zone for more medium-density mixed-use, push back on NIMBYs, down with everyone who says more housing will “ruin the village character” of their suburb.

[Donherra @Donherra]

I’m in London and I know it’s been said before but the thing that makes European cities/London cool and fun is the ubiquity of medium-density housing coupled with planning laws that allow cafes/shops/pubs to exist in the same space as residences.

Nightmare scenario is when the training, fix-it guidance, or instructions are only in video form. I just want to read!

@thebilinguist I was peak HP generation and I got to book five and tapped out. All my friends were obsessed but as someone who has always loved the fantasy genre by the time I was in my mid-teens I couldn’t keep reading HP.

Opposition to the TOD is deeply conservative, unfair to young people, and will make our city less vibrant and less afforable. Sydney YIMBY are right here, write your your local Greeen or Liberal MP or the Green, Liberal and One Nation members of the upper house and let them know!

@jackm_here The pro-means testing commentary from progressives is killing me. Like do I think the budget should’ve done more for low income people? Yep. Is the universality of the $300 payment the thing to go after for a swapsie? No.
