An important point to clarify is that when someone of professional class affluence claims to "live paycheck to paycheck" they are making a very narrow statement about cashflow management and liquidity, *not* that they are 1 missed paycheck away from destitution

Only 4% of individuals in the US earn this much, and only 6% of households do. Affluent Americans refusing to live within their abundant means seems somehow consistent with most adult Americans being overweight and millions of college graduates demanding cancellation of their student loan debt. All point to a lack of personal discipline and self-restraint.

I know we're not supposed to gauge the demand for a bridge by the number of people swimming, but it's impossible to ignore the number of ebikes and scooters braving Richmond Ave by my house—with its freeway-spec lanes, widely-spaced signals, 40 mph traffic, and zero bike infra.

A protected bike lane would be an overnight success, and no one would miss the 3rd car lane west of Kirby. Call it the University Lite.

If you want to do the "bring back classical education" bit, stop being cowards and use the King James. While also not a great translation, it is much better written and more important to the history of the English language.

I'm literally always saying this. Whatever you think "real college football" looks like, it can all be written into the contract. Anything you want, there exists a number high enough that you can pay the players to agree to it. The only question is what it's worth to the schools.

The Brendan Sorsby ruling should be the tipping point that pushes college football to the obvious conclusion (which isn’t the bill in the Senate).

Why can't we build smart, walkable, mixed-use neighborhoods like this?

One of my favorite things about Houston is the bar for becoming a Houstonian is very low. I would say if you lived here during the last major hurricane you're in.

What a great example of geometry hating cars. I hate that TxDOT spent years and millions of $ to not fix the one thing that was wrong with this interchange, but they're kinda right that the West Loop is not a problem that can be fixed with more lanes. chron.com/news/houston-texas…

The density of jobs and destinations in the Galleria area is simply too great to effectively transport everyone there along with 2 tons of steel per person! Every time you're stuck in traffic on Wetheimer or 610, just think: "this could just be a busy train station"

Also it's extremely funny to me that the place I first saw this article about an interchange a mile from my house was on the Cities:Skylines2 subreddit reddit.com/r/CitiesSkylines2…

I'm on record as a big fan of Hollins and the overall budget critique. BUT, the meme strategy feels a) extremely dated and Facebook-coded, b) a bit gross coming from the official Controller account at a time when official federal accounts are being debased for campaign content.

Easy problems to fix! a) Sure, fine, it's not for me but it's probably slaying with the over-50 crowd, but please also hire a couple professionals, get on camera, and do some shortform video. b) Post this from your personal account! It has way more followers anyway!
