The signs you ignore in the beginning just end up being the reason you leave later. You know right away who's good and bad for you. Don't ignore that.

Everyone envies me for my shrimp lighter
Enough time has been wasted trying to contextualize numbers about data center resource usage. We need to go into the notes of fandom bloggers and yell how every episode of Heated Rivalry they watch consumes just as much power as generating fifty(!!!) AI images, just to see what that does to the discourse.
i think i've become the sort of someone who scared me stiff when i was young
it's a shame that housing supply is a cause that only seems to appeal to policy wonks when it's like. at a society-killing level of bad in most of the Anglosphere. anyone with any level of passion just doesn't seem to be interested, or is actively on the NIMBY side
I think it’s hard for people to accept that something so boring and prosaic can be the cause of so much ill. They want the profound malaise they experience to have an equally profound explanation, like Late-Stage Capitalism (TM) or reverse racism or whatever. Everyone knows you’re supposed to lift the curse on your homeland by slaying the dragon, not tweaking some numbers on a spreadsheet.
It is sad in a lot of ways, but the reality of politics is such that it has honestly been a partial blessing in the US; by being "non partisan" YIMBY groups have been racking up a string of wins across state and local governments. We even have the Senate seeming ready to pass a bipartisan housing reform bill. It had a tumultuous story behind it and is of course not perfect, but looks promising and is an *extremely* rare instance of bipartisan reform today precisely because neither side has succeeded in making it a wedge issue via popular engagement. Policy wonks can get a lot done on their own by just being Correct On The Merits on topics voters are ignoring!
There are limits to that strategy of course, and particularly in some states like California limits are being hit and we need more of a knock-down fight. Just good to see the benefits alongside the costs.
I really like this website because somebody will be like “there’s nothing wrong with darting out from behind a parked car into traffic, bootlicker” and you can be like okay this clearly evolved from a valid point about how the US is too car-centric. But something happened to it.
"You will often be subjected to uncomfortable situations in public and you should learn to navigate that" and "if you play your music out loud in a public hike then the other hikers should be allowed to hunt you for sport" are two sentiments that can and should co-exist
Me, at the local coffee shop: Hey, can I get an objective experience of reality? Blue-haired feminist barista, pronounedly: Oh, you mean a construction of the intellect according to its a priori principles? Me, rolling my eyes: No. I said an objective experience of reality. Barista, too addled by college to understand: So... a phenomenological reality whose grounding in a world of noumena is bracketed? Me: No, an objective experience of reality. Barista: A representation, made of relations to yourself as a subject? Me: No! I want a frickin' objective experience of reality!
Barista: *stares blankly* Person behind me in line: Hey, could you hurry up and order? Some of us are trying to experience a series of mental events which we interpret as going places!
