San Francisco has not built enough housing to keep up with population growth. This leads to higher housing prices, forcing people who don't work in tech to move out of the city. This hurts everyone, as the city is now less interesting. Agree other cities should learn from this.

San Francisco’s transition from counter culture capital to LinkedIn: The City™️ needs to be studied. Not so it can be replicated, but so it can never happen anywhere else ever again.

Elon and DOGE cut federal funding for cancer research by 31% because it was deemed “wasteful spending.”

If Elon created a cancer vaccine, people would complain about the size of the needle.

State, county, & town officials got $60M+ in opioid settlement funds in the last year — and new reports show towns spent some of the money on inflatable bounce houses, DJs, dirt bike demonstrations, pet sitting, fishing, summer camps, meals, and more newjerseymonitor.com/2026/10…

Opioid settlement spending shows need for more oversight, NJ advocates warn • New Jersey Monitor

Harm reduction advocates are calling for more oversight after new reports showed some questionable spending of opioid settlement funds.

OK but the plan isn't just to replace the Kennedy Center with a better building. Trump wants to turn it into a shrine to himself.
Armin Rosen
@ArminRosenOct 1
Destruction of the Kennedy Center is the kind of obvious good idea people oppose only because of Donald Trump's involvement. It is one of the most hideous and Soviet structures in the city, a building of ghastly, inhuman proportions and a place with astoundingly little significance to the country's cultural life. Have any major productions originated there? Can you think of a single important live recording that's been made in that building that's not a Kennedy Center Honors ceremony? It is not "America's mainstage;" this country has yet to devolve into a backwater where the national capitol and the cultural capital are oh so conveniently in the same place The National Symphony Orchestra is wonderful, but it's maybe the 4th-6th best in America and has numerous other potential venues in the DC area (Constitution Hall, Strathmore etc). Same goes for the Washington National Opera, which had a brief period of global relevance 20 years ago and has since been an institution in long decline. The Kennedy Center's core tenants can survive without the giant kleenex box...

AOC: And for anyone who says that’s unrealistic… this is literally what baby boomers gave themselves. Public colleges in America were tuition-free. You know when they started to get defunded? They got defunded when they started to get integrated.

El auto particular es el transporte terrestre de pasajeros más ineficiente que existe, tanto en uso del espacio público como en consumo de energía por persona. Más del 95% de la energía del combustible se gasta en mover el propio vehículo, no al pasajero.

Drill, baby, Drill! Gateway tunnel brining machines are ready to chew through the Palisades nj.com/news/2026/09/massive-…

Massive machine starts carving first new tunnel under the Hudson River in 116 years

The true sign that drilling work on the Gateway rail tunnel came at a ceremony where New Jersey and New York governors turned on the first tunnel boring machine in North Bergen.
