WATCH: MAGA CM Vickie Paladino is crashing out because props 2-5 will allow affordable housing to be built in her Queens district.
These changes were designed as a backstop to prevent abuse of member deference, and ensure that every neighborhood does its part. They're working!

Sure, and that's totally accurate in a case that is in any sense being prosecuted. Unfortunately the entire story here is the lack of transparency and the fundamental corruption of power. Mob outrage is not the solution we should seek or even achieve. Whether it's the only option is being decided.

If they understand the reality best, if one size fits all is bad, if they are best equipped to handle these problems, then why do we have a housing shortage? Why do we keep having to sue them to get them to follow the law? Why do their councilors keep getting convicted of land use corruption?

Can you imagine if we had to get a grand jury to issue an indictment? Present that indictment to the accused? Hold a preliminary hearing on the evidence? Determine pretrial detention status? Call a jury? Prepare a record? Present evidence? Prove guilt? Before executing people? Not how Trump operates

I know this is the wrong crowd for this but, I have an important test that I apply to new technologies that people think are going to fix everything. I ask "how does this help with the housing crisis?"
Invariably (so far) it does not.

PANEL 1: A cowboy looking out over a series of strip malls. NARRATOR: "At the rise of the next hill, he could see an unending series of car dealerships, occasionally broken by a plaza of mediocre dining options. A conquering pattern repeating to the coast. A local identity with no locality and no identity."
PANEL 2: A duck is reading the book that ostensibly the cowboy panel took place in. NARRATOR: "As a boy and hundreds of miles from here, he'd sat numb hours with his brother in the identical non-places of the middle west as their parents teased themselves with dreams of future selves in better cars under better financing. Nothing for a child to do. Nothing for a child to touch. No marker for a memory. But it had happened. Here he met it again."

I know posting "the girls are fighting" seems funny, but it's actually insensitive and shitty.
My father died in a girl fight. He tried to break it up and the girls pulled him apart like freshly baked bread. He didn't even scream. One moment he was there, the next just a spray of dad viscera.

Even the lack of self interest is shocking. I have problems with Democrats and Kamala, but in a two party system one candidate DOES win. It's either going to be the better one or the worse one. All you have to do is press a button. Why not influence the decision? (not to mention down ballot)

My father used to literally use this as the example of how Colonialism affects cultures. "A banh mi is from Vietnam but on a baguette, using local ingredients with French pate technique. How did that happen?" he'd ask the students, and the answer is colonial expansion.

I don't know why, but the last few months it's like there's been some great awakening about how great C.L. Moore was. Everyone (including me) picking our heads up and looking around confused. Why isn't she a larger name in scifi and fantasy already? Where is the Jirel movie? Every story is a hit.

This isn't even like an advanced android from Star Trek, we know how this software works and we know for a fact that it is not conscious in any way. It's an undebatable issue. The reason AI is dangerous is specifically BECAUSE it's not conscious. It has no moral/even factual capacity in a real way.
