Many don’t realize that the first people Hitler sent to his concentration camps weren’t everyday Jewish citizens, but his political opponents. So, when Trump rants about retribution, locking up his opponents, and giving them “very long sentences,” I can’t help but take him seriously… because history teaches us that is what fascist dictators do during their “Day One” period to consolidate their power. (After all, if you’re hellbent on staying in power but aren’t likely to win the next election, you can’t have your political opponents running around free.) To keep fascism out of our lives, vote for democracy!

In the past 50 years, Tokyo has built more new homes than the *total* number of homes in New York City. New York City’s expensive housing costs are entirely a policy choice.
Genuinely wild that you can live in the very center of Tokyo for $800/month.

The President has released a very solid national housing plan to increase the supply of housing. The housing shortage, while most acute in California, is national. It’s harming middle & working class people, increasing homelessness & harming the economy. Thank you, Mr. President.

Today, we advance President Biden's vision for world-class passenger rail on American soil. Our historic funding will support some of the biggest rail projects of our time and create hundreds of thousands of good-paying American jobs.

Let's dive into the findings from this report. It starts with a short introduction and an overview of HCD's statutory authority to conduct this kind of review, then moves on to an explanation of why HCD is specifically scrutinizing SF's housing policy.
BREAKING: @California_HCD has just released its San Francisco Housing Policy and Practice Review, an in-depth investigation into San Francisco's dysfunctional housing permitting process. The report is here: hcd.ca.gov/sites/default/fil…

🧵Bringing back downtown San Francisco isn’t rocket science. We need the will to: ✅ Transform the financial district into a mixed use neighborhood. It never made sense for it to be just office. It should be office, housing, nightlife, restaurants, markets, entertainment, etc ⬇️

Twitter is closing its doors to hobby bots like this one. They tell us a week before this happens. There's been a lot of measured, well-mannered commentary from other makers of Twitter bots. I thought I'd share my uncensored thoughts instead. Fuck this. 1/?

when someone confidently says "we need to rewrite the whole thing from scratch", what they mean is "i don't know how to read and navigate this". look for the person who tells you how to rewrite parts of it without breaking the running system. they'll be quiet and sound unsure

New data: California has 12% of the US population but 30% of its homeless & 50% of unsheltered homeless. Why? CA doesn’t have more mental health issues than other states. Rather, it’s about housing. We have fewer homes per capita than other states. We must prioritize new homes.
