Have you heard of “The Populist Playbook?”
A few years ago, I posted what I still consider one of my most important messages.
It was about “The Populist Playbook” that I’ve watched play out often over my 33+ years of city planning.
Since then, it’s only gotten worse.
Do the steps sound familiar?

Mark Carney's "Climate Competitiveness Strategy" didn't get much love at first sight.
But there are good things in it.
Spoke to a few supporters, including MP @wgreaves.bsky.social, who pushed hard to make sure a youth climate corps is part of the strategy.

What many of us warned, & what is unavoidably clear now, is that there is no privileged sphere of "real life" that is sheltered, separate from the information environment. It's narratives all the way down -- even to the point that they shape *how people experience their own material circumstances*.
