If you literally only calculate cost in terms of one line of personal rent and don’t take into account transportation costs, infrastructure maintenance, tax revenue, etc). There’s a reason many suburbs have been broke due to infrastructure obligations for a very long time.

you can dress it up however you want, but there's a fundamental contradiction between increasing a city's density and making it more affordable over the long term, without countervailing government regulation or investment

@hecubian_devil turns out building massive towers on top of subway stations fixes this

@hecubian_devil It’s not even just transit be no transit but things like car idle time, distance, traffic on commute, and environmental costs.

If you weren’t a petulant narcissist this line would make you feel *more* connection with nonbinary people, not less.

@allieeclipse as I said here:

@allieeclipse Realistically you’re doing much of what some of the people you’re disagreeing with are doing: denying transphobia as a serious social force with many of its own terms and articulations.

[🦋 @aly.ruffruff.party @mpregsonic]

@allieeclipse I’m not trying to be inflammatory here but I do think some of what you said here, while reasonable against some of the people you’re disagreeing with, really does enter into the realm of flat-out denying transphobia as experienced by trans men and many non-binary people.

[🦋 @aly.ruffruff.party @mpregsonic]

@allieeclipse Some evidence that may resonate with you is the simple fact that trans men and nonbinary people report significantly elevated and distinct levels of violence and discrimination over cís women. If it were as simple as being AFAB then we’d expect a lot more similarity here!

[🦋 @aly.ruffruff.party @mpregsonic]

@allieeclipse (That said theyfab is a really silly term)

[🦋 @aly.ruffruff.party @mpregsonic]

@allieeclipse “how could she say that being amab harmed her?” If a trans woman were “AFAB” she would be significantly less likely to be raped, to live in poverty, to be homeless, to be imprisoned, to be raped in prison, and she would significantly increase her yearly income and life expectancy

@jamwither @indirect_adress @ZwolfRosen that is 70% of the electorally relevant population of Georgia. Biden won Georgia based on massive margins in 3-4 counties in metro Atlanta and less than catastrophic losses in a couple smaller cities. Him and Warnock represent two extremely relevant parts of the electorate.
