I cannot believe there are still people in my mentions arguing that boycotting an election because the candidates arenβt addressing your issue is a way to get them to pay attention.

who creates the lively art and music scenes if the rent is too high? who makes cultural life? who serves you food or washes your dishes? who creates the fancy little restaurants that draw you to urban living? affordable housing is at the heart of what makes city life worthwhile.

Two photos. The first shows the outside of Nobu in Malibu. The second shows the area where Michael sat. There is the same tree, ocean, white canopy umbrellas, and fence.
The menu for Nobu in Malibu shows prices around $60. The menu for Omen Sushi in NYC shows prices around $35.
