Oh. This might be the best metaphor I’ve come across for explaining zoning.
To further torture the metaphor:
Each room can only have one table, which can only have one serving dish, and each person once they've managed to assemble a meal has to find a whole separate room in which to eat it.

Amazingly, reaction times using screens while driving are worse than being drunk or high—no wonder 90 percent of drivers hate using touchscreens in cars. Finally the auto industry is coming to its senses.

Bitch, Asheville is a blue college town and the county has gone blue for decades. I am so sick of this “if I pretend disasters only happen to red areas, it means I’m safe because I’m properly on the left!” No. You’re not safe. That’s why we save everybody.

Good news this year: In July, the rediscovery of kiwi pukupuku in the wild in Westland, shocked and delighted conservationists. Three weeks ago, they found two surprise chicks. Huge news for a species once thought to be extinct on the mainland.

The commodification of play is a scandal. Indoor play areas that have to be driven to, soft play, trampoline parks, expensive 'experiences' that have to be booked & organised, & attended by adults for the duration.
When all kids actually need is green space and a safe way to get to it.

Federal Law Enforcement fuckin stole his goddamn groceries on camera, in broad daylight. what the fuck
ICE detain father shopping on Christmas Eve—then steal his family's groceries.
Then 3 agents divvy up his paid for food—taking what they want for themselves.
"Can I just get the wife's number to call and let her know?" woman asks.
"No, guess he should've complied," agent says.
