"...according to the Community Service Society, the NYC lost 526,800 affordable units between 2002 and 2021. No one in the power structure cares to count the number of units that get lost." Cc @ShahanaFromBK commonedge.org/developers-are…
Last week in YIMBY crazy-world: bedroom windows & hot water are a "luxury." This week in YIMBY crazy-town: community gardens are a waste of space - "one of the dumbest ideas." We should live in pods with no hot water or vegetables (food deserts & victory gardens notwithstanding)

@DavidFBrand @JonCampbellNY Massive failure because once again we're pretending the issue is apt availability and not apt affordability. Nearly 10,000 available apartments for rent in the 5 boroughs today. None of them are affordable
Good point. One key function of propaganda is to deliberately fill one's political enemies with a paralyzed despair about the irrationality & stupidity of those who parrot the propaganda. The more witless & false the propaganda, the stronger this effect can be.

I have notice that none of the YIMBY crowd actually promote development when they truly live Is it always other people’s back yards they demand have high density housing in #ToniDems #SanDiego
@bfurnas @ShahanaFromBK Way to misrepresent the position of so-called "skeptical opponents." We are not opposed to human-scale affordable housing at Arrow Linen site. We oppose a 13-story building going into a neighborhood currently zoned for 3/4 stories & destruction to the urban fabric it will cause.
This is the first time I've encountered a straight-up factual error on @ChatGPTapp. It's a doozy.
I just realized the light looks so weird during an eclipse because it's darker but without shifting to a warmer color like you see during a sunset.
After many years using @Mintmobile I will be canceling all of my family members accounts. My 11-year old son lost his phone and they were unable to do a simple task like send a new SIM card without having to validate his call history, which was ON HIS PHONE! Ridiculous, I'm out.
I just asked ChatGPT how AI can be disrupted. #signofthetimes

@fuelgrannie @UpzonedHimbo You'll never be part of our movement, so I'm both trying to harass you into silence, while also showing any uncommited bystandarders that YIMBYs are smart and correct while NIMBYs are idiots with slogans but no analysis
current trends on the yimby tl: • their hero, ronald reagan • mustaches (last week it was: getting rid of bedroom windows; hot water as an amenity; and rent control being kryptonite😃😀😄)
In a dramatic move, a CA court says housing density doesn’t mean affordability. If the decision holds up, which may not happen, it would be a significant blow to the Yimby agenda. 48hills.org/2024/04/in-a-d…
nope 🤗
The problem I have with YIMBY/NIMBY discourse is that both are seen as owners and their competing desires are platformed while the needs of landless people are ignored. Politicians are overwhelmingly landowners even in LA which has one of the highest populations of renters in US
The whole point of gig economy platforms is to get away with lucrative violations of the law by having a computer do it.
No, seriously, Uber is deciding what driver gets what job based on their weight, whether they ever missed a payment, what political associations they have. Algorithmic wage discrimination should be made illegal before it becomes the dominant business model.
no, it’s you guys who are wealthy dustin moskovitz, garry tan, ben carlos thypin, chris goode no one is stupid here
YIMBYs: zoning is the only reason housing isn’t being built! It would get so cheap if you just allow it to be built! Me (smart): we can build as much housing as we want but it has to only cost $500 per month YIMBY: Noo housing can’t be cheap, it’s only built if it’s expensive!!
Just in case you were confused about why the price of everything keeps going up and mistakenly concluded it was inflation
@666violet i shine a light on them and they’re ashamed to be seen
why do they *all* look like this? all of them, always: why?
@fuelgrannie Activism is a huge contribution. Otherwise these idiots would just run all over everybody and everything.
i raise awareness about how yimbyism is a failure that’s my “contribution😤to🍼society😫”
63% of VOTING New Yorkers don’t want congestion pricing. We thought we lived in a democracy where our elected want to be re-elected? It seems our elected just follow what the lobbyists want and not the majority and hope to be reelected? Good luck with that.
