Great piece by a great scholar. Give it a read to understand more about Qatar’s nationality law. (Ps: Proud of you)

[Noora @NooraAls24]

I recently wrote about the patrilineal features of the Qatari nationality law and society’s views on some aspects of it. You can read the piece here

I want to tell you a story about something fascinating that has happened in Japan.

An academic named Kohei Saito wrote a book about democratic "degrowth communism".

Everyone said it would be a flop, because degrowth "is a terrible word", and communism "is a terrible word too."

Folks who have worked from home over the past year have, for the most part, not “saved money.” I’ve seen a few people say this. But costs for many people have actually increased over the past year, in part BECAUSE they are working from home. Let’s discuss. (This is a long one!)

Tokyo’s rail/public transport system. Y’know, for perspective.

Great cities run on transit.

A city planner is so much more than someone in charge of land use & regulations. The regulations planners enforce shape our urban fabric.

Setbacks, coverage, land use can dramatically affect the way in which our cities are built, and in turn how we interact with it.

Traffic evaporation occurs when the need for commute is reduced, density and diversity are increased, walking and cycling infra. are provided
Like blocking artery feeding cancer cells, the traffic will diminish & the cancer cell dies on its own

This river was a highway in Seoul

Exactly. When you sit down to enjoy your grapes or almonds remember where they come from. I have witnessed first hand how hard working my people are, trust me farm work is not for everyone. They work in extreme temperatures just to bring food you their table and yours!
