"We're not talking a 'balloon' here, Heather. Not something the clown gives you at the party. This was a three-foot Spongebob, OK? With legs. LEGS. It was EIGHT DOLLARS and I, as a father, have to budget. Thanks to you. To our arrangement. Would you rather I not feed her?!'
I am 1 year post-op today! There's been lots of anti-trans misinfo in hearings, so let me clear the record trans vaginas by talking about my own:
I am not "mutilated," it is not an "open wound," and it is fully sensate, despite the best wishes of anti-trans folks.
Full 🧵
public housing exists it’s just underfunded i don’t get why they act like it’s so unrealistic. just bc they don’t live near it doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist or is impossible lol
When I see the YIMBY's talk about "the revolution", "fantasies", or that the left has "no solutions" it shows me how unserious they are about affordability or understanding the left, which they are not part of.
YIMBYs know they aren't offering much to the working class or poor so they try to convince everyone there are no alternatives to submitting to their more market rate through deregulation vision. This hyperbole is goofy when good policies for affordable housing exist and work.
The thing that pisses me off about this is that the person who wrote it has done their best to sabotage recent SRO tenant organizing because it didn’t center around her ego & her desire to be seen as a leader. Just graffiti all over the TL and pretend yr an activist, I guess.
pro and anti development framing is the dumbest shit on earth. development doesn’t have to be gentrification, cincinnati chooses for it to be, and that’s what makes it bad
“I’m pro-development, always have been. I supported the soccer stadium. I don’t support coming in and throwing out small businesses." https://wcpo.com/money/local-business-news/its-like-business-gentrification-fc-cincinnati-closing-in-on-key-land-deal-for-west-end-development…
Cishet white dudes: it’s so hard now, I have to be careful about what I say around people so I don’t get judged
Marginalized people, who have always had to be careful about what they say at all times in order to avoid misunderstanding, prejudice, hatred, and violence: DO GO ON
It’s trans pizza! If you are NOT CISGENDER and want pizza, reply here with your favorite optical illusion or the word PIZZA. I’ll pick five winners at random and PayPal them each $50 for pizza! You have 24 hours! Go! (Only two more trans pizzas after this!)
What's the evidence that NIMBY's run suburbs though, that they are strongly SFR?,that is the historic pattern of development of a suburb. Did someone ask for more density? Was it allowed or denied ? Lots of variation in the suburbs too. Some are "NIMBY" , some are pro-growth
One day Mike may discover that politicians can be bought with campaign donations and that it's legislative successes are easily traced back to the politicians whose influence they purchased. They've used this power to override local law.
YIMBY is a developers advocacy group.
And I’m not saying people don’t need their sleep I’m just saying we need to have the same amount of sound ordinance 24/7 or we need to eliminate night jobs so everyone can sleep in peace.
Sleep time noise ordinance, are classist prove me wrong.
You think people are just as quiet during the daytime for second shift an overnight employees many of which are building all those nice thing to fill your house with.
in a virtual equity summit and the opener is saying that we can prevent cops from harming Black people (speaker invoked the names of several murdered in traffic stops) by increasing transit ridership and walkability. i feel sick.
SF is always innovating, a pro-prison/anti-homeless "black lead organizer" Rachel Dolezal whose communist dad's activism inspired her to become a cop, you can't make this shit up. some of my fave sections
SF Standard does a piece on Urban Alchemy's CEO depicted as another Rachel Dolezal.
But the bigger story is that she's a friend of mayor London Breed who got $62 million in no-bid contracts with the city, with no experience or qualifications.

This is a vile way to be talking about 3 Black 14 year olds (whose names and pics this YIMBY posted) fighting displacement from their homes. The idea that rich white guys know best, always have the answers, and POC are at best confused pawns is so racist.
All for luxury condos.
It seems to me that if you live in a rich, exclusionary neighborhood it would be pretty easy to support zoning changes in your area without joining a racist movement to battle the victims of redlining you claim to support but idk
