Like it's genuinely insane to me that people can look at how Black residents have been fleeing coastal cities that don't build housing, and emigrating to Sunbelt cities that build a shitload of housing, and think "building houses displaces Black people"
it's moronic

I'm very very sad tonight. I just learned that Stephen Biesty passed away in 2024 at 63... He is one of my favorite artist. Rest in peace.

No it was the NIMBYs who displaced minorites and the knew it would happen and that was the point, because thats always what exclusionary zoning has been about.

for blue states and cities to become affordable, functional, and politically and culturally dominant again, NIMBYs need to be steamrolled.
no more pretending their obstruction deserves equal consideration.
the future depends on it.

San Francisco has been in control of NIMBYs for 50 years and Black people have fallen from 13.4% of the population in 1970 to 6% today.
NIMBY is what *causes* displacement. Cities that build housing rapidly keep rents stable and keep lower-income residents able to stay.

The fact that there’s a town in Massachusetts that would rather drink its own sh** than let more people move in tells you everything you need to know about the exclusionary attitudes that created our housing crisis.

£4.30 for lamb kofte and chips at Wrexham.
Can't fault the price. The presentation, on the other hand, needs a serious rethink.

Q-Tip made the "Electric Relaxation" beat in Phife Dawg's grandmother's basement. She'd given him a key.
Phife came home, heard Ronnie Foster's "Mystic Brew" drifting up from below and ran downstairs without even saying hi to grandma: “Yo, what the hell is that?!”
