Architect. He/him.

@ajlamesa @schmangee @meelar AMEN. Basically, traditional county seats, with some investment, can provide some extremely green lifestyles without anyone feeling like they're in NYC. Empty the exurbs, lightly densify the suburbs, revive county seats, and upzone cities.

@Irakliseesu @agraybee It’s the finale of Ferris Bueller.

That’s it. FB was referencing earlier bits, but the extended, quasi-realistic backyard sprint is from that, and that only.

@AnneChovy2 Insufferable

@agraybee Tooze wrote an entire book about how Lend-Lease won the war, but bc he’s a red diaper baby, he desperately believes that Stalin alone could’ve won, even though nobody who was there ever claimed that except toadies in a 6 year period.

A complete fraud.

@sacrelicio @immortal_sea @agraybee I had a fun afternoon that I remember 46 years later. How awful.

[Jason Roth @J_M_Roth]

@sacrelicio @immortal_sea @agraybee I was literally no more than 6 playing on an abandoned construction site 2+ blocks from my house in 1979. I know this bc I moved to a different state before I was 7.

@neipate96 @agraybee @constans This is bullshit. People started modifying them instantly, while similar houses were being built miles away. In 1990, when Levittown was still a working class suburb, they’d all been modified.

[Jason Roth @J_M_Roth]

@YammerPsaka @agraybee This isn’t true at all. Domestic servants are skilled (relative to Walmart cashiers), so the relevant hourly rate is like $25/hr, which is $1000/wk, which very few Americans can afford.

Do you think you can get a competent cook for $300/wk?

@vurnt22 Like The Dream Academy said:

In winter 1963
it felt like the world would freeze
with John F Kennedy
and The Beatles
yeah, yeah, yeah…

@BarryJamesT Goose Gossage.

Maybe Elroy Face.

@curlyfro I was listening to a mediocre color commentator today, but he still said something that made me realize he experienced the game in a way I can’t comprehend. Obv he participated at the highest level, but he also just tracked it so intensely. It’s wild.

[Jason Roth @J_M_Roth]

@curlyfro I truly think that’s the missing ingredient we don’t understand about elite athletes: it’s not just the physical gifts, it’s the extraordinary recollection that puts them in position to use the gifts.

[Jason Roth @J_M_Roth]

@yhdistyminen She's full of shit regardless, because the vast majority of actual affordable units come through LIHTC projects, not through "hardball" negotiations with developers who may or may not concede a dozen or two 80% units out of a couple hundred market rate.

She knows nothing.

@LivFaustDieJung Manufacturing consent for a funeral

@thewongmann @JimOffAir KDKA was the first commercial radio station in the world, so it was grandfathered in the W/K east/west split.

[Jason Roth @J_M_Roth]

@GrantBrisbee @chknpuppetmk5 Same deal as Jack Wilson a few years later. Regular Pirates fans adored him, the stat nerds sneered, but were completely wrong.
