Meet Tiffany Carter. A trained chef and San Francisco native, she sold gumbo out of her car for years to support herself and her daughter, until she found @lacocinasf, a kitchen incubator that turns amateur women chefs into business owners. Tonight on @nbcnightlynews.

If you want to stop climate change, you need to call your Senators now. Congress has a once in a lifetime opportunity to pass climate legislation, and it's time to act. #call4climate call4climate.com xitter.cf/duncanwrites/status/14โ€ฆ

My take on rent control is simple: The Best rent control is landlords desperately trying to fill their vacant units because we have abundant housing and they have to compete on price or amenities or both. Build housing.

Wouldnโ€™t it be nice if American voters said to themselves: โ€œThis 9.1% inflation really sucks, but given that itโ€™s 8.1% in Canada and 9.4% in the UK and 9.6% in the EU, it really makes no sense to blame my financial pain on President Biden or Democratic Congressional candidates.โ€

Smart cities are designed to kill what makes cities wonderful. New York, Rome and Cairo are not great because theyโ€™re โ€œefficient.โ€People love the messiness and serendipity in a diverse mix of people living in close proximity. And Toronto understood that. technologyreview.com/2022/06โ€ฆ

A note of gratitude on indie bookstore day, with thanks to folks selling books everywhere.
A photo of me holding a book and standing outside of the Two Dollar Radio Bookstore wearing a black hoodie, black jeans, and light blue sneakers.

Happy indie bookstore day -- like every year, I have immense gratitude to live in a place with bookstores and booksellers that support local writers & look after the community. In celebration of the bookstore/community I'm also thankful that Two Dollar Radio, Prologue, and The Book Loft allowed me to purchase 25 gift cards at each store to be distributed to young folks in the city, a portion of them going to graduating Columbus City Schools seniors. Wandering libraries and bookstores made me a writer more than anything else did, even when I didn't know it. Love & gratitude to all of the bookstore workers around the country who have been so warm and kind to my work and -- much more importantly -- to me as a person. Hope to see many of you again soon.
