Here’s a serious critique by Professor Norman Goda, a distinguished Holocaust historian, dissecting South Africa’s case of Genocide against Israel in the ICJ. I’m doing my best to stay agnostic but this is a pretty devastating legal and factual analysis quillette.com/2024/01/17/law…

South African Lawfare at The Hague

Motions before any court—criminal or civil, national or international—contain references to hard evidence and a careful reading of legal precedent. The South African ICJ application has neither.

Mayor Eric Adams was a terrible, terrible, terrible choice for Mayor of New York City and it becomes more clear every single day with his cheap car salesman BS.

Empty office space is opening doors for creative solutions and I like it. washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/…

Breweries, farms, spas? To fill empty offices, downtowns get creative.

Forget turning offices into apartments. Some cities are looking at more unusual ways to use up vacant commercial buildings, from data centers to urban farms.

Which magazines?

Replying to @perpetua
I've been looking at a lot of magazines circa 98-02 recently and that was a pretty similar era, like we all knew things were changing a lot but the outlook was hazy (though not as hazy as it is now)

It started as a chronicler of all things downtown. After success came, it morphed into something else. Now Paper has a new owner — and an uncertain future.
