Iowa City kept the downtown power plant steam whistles going at 8, Noon, 1, and 5 until 2019 for similar reasons.

In the 1990s in San Francisco, I remember when the familiar sound of foghorns on the bay ceased to be necessary for maritime navigation.
People immediately yelled at the city government demanding that it install a fake foghorn to preserve the ambience.

Check out the depth of this @thecacoast.bsky.social required parking lot for a new apartment building in Santa Monica. This looks like an expensive hole! Great news for renters. And I’m sure the neighbors will love all the additional cars this puts on the road.

It is incredible — the blind spots you develop when you’ve never, ever been poor.
Trump claims that food stamps "puts the country in jeopardy. People that are able-bodied can do a job, they leave their job because they figure they can pick this up, it's easier."

From the geniuses who brought you the 50 year mortgage over the past week may I present the <15 year car loan>
Once again finance companies will be thrilled. Just one thing, the average ownership length is about half that time and the average vehicle lasts 13 years on the road.

I am not a crazy ideologue. I just think that the richest society in human history has a moral responsibility to welcome the stranger, feed the hungry, treat the sick, and house the homeless. If doing that requires forcing comfortably-housed people to accept neighborhood change, I'm ok with that.
Probably the key part of this piece. It comes down to the following: "What does prioritizing millionaire homeowners’ aversion to change over the needs of the poor and unhoused do to our souls?"

Honey you can’t fix him.
Step one is admitting this is the most lib-coded personality trait.
Step two is building the courage to tell yourself it’s not your fault and you deserve better.

The rare day when the marine layer is so squished that air in the Inland Empire and San Gabriel Valley is better than the coast. Also it’s 65F here near the coast and it feels so cold; I’m so used to the SGV!!

Even the people dunking on Stancil by observing that houses are more expensive now & people wait longer to buy them are missing the bigger point, which is that the problem is not whether we have enough money, but whether we have enough desirable houses.
people can buy more stuff today than ever before, more or less. compared to more than 3-4 years ago and it’s not even close. we are vastly wealthier on average now than even within near living memory

I don’t think it’d be Roberts saving Trump’s ass, it’s Project 2025 types playing it perfectly. They got a megalomaniacal buffoon to rip through the parts of the government they don’t like, a charismatic simpleton to take the fall, & a court that will restrain them only on conservative ideology.
If John Roberts tries to save his ass by blocking tariffs, I genuinely think the tariff otaku will try to invent a different way to impose them anyway.

The health risk is greatest for the largely low-income and Latino residents who live near the lake...The tests showed a “clear association” between poorer lung function and the distance from which people lived from the lake.

I would honestly pay any amount of money to see him argue this case in front of SCOTUS himself. I genuinely want him to explain, at length in a public forum, what he thinks tariffs are and how they work.

"rising costs since 1990 are responsible for 11% fewer children, 51% of the total fertility rate decline between the 2000s and 2010s, and 7 percentage points fewer young families in the 2010s" 👀

When I first moved to Cincinnati, I knew there was a bus to the city from the airport, but I couldn't find it. The people at the information desk told me where it was and said that it was intentionally hard to find, so people would give up and get a taxi.

The secret here is that airport authorities kind of don’t want good airport transit for passengers; it would wreck parking fees, rideshare and taxi fees, etc. (It does make sense for employees who aren’t going to pay $50/day to park and take up road capacity from people who will.)
Even from transit fares! At least the varius cases where there's an "airport surcharge"

As anyone who works in transportation can tell you… airport authorities pretty much print money, from gate fees, parking fees, and concessions. They are really the ONLY clients in the transportation sector that are actually self sufficient off user fees except maybe the Class 1 railroads.
True on some level, but misleading. Air traffic controllers are paid (or, right now, not paid) by the FAA, with funding from user fees generated from taxes on airline tickets, jet fuel, etc. – not (at least not mostly?) out of general federal government revenues. usafacts.org/articles/who...
