Studied thermofluids now do data engineering. Housing advocate, first chair in the peanut gallery. Aloha, akua, ea!!
OHA statement. On point. Gov Green is pushing us into a false dichotomy. Hawaii can and must shape the negotiation not just accept the terms Trump admin imposes. Call the governor’s office. Green has national ambitions, make it clear those are imperiled by his actions here.

I find reports like this fascinating. “I wont collect $250k in gains (after taxes) because that means i paid $50k in taxes” is a take but its not joke a real thing people think.

Saw some AI slop out IRL. Down to Earth selling these piss patina stickers. Other tell:
rooster with a left arm AND wing; spam not under nodi (instead itʻs a hat); the way the pia just floats in front of the honuʻs flipper; the straw stabbing through catʻs arm; 4 petalled hibiscus and more. Sad.

highly disingenuous framing here from aloha state daily. The Aloha State Daily is funded by billionaire Wayne Hughes who donated $500k to Trump’s 2020 campaign and other conservative causes. To each their own, but if you didn’t know, now you know.

Love this headline lmao.
The real question is why Hawaii gets so hyped about every single run of the mill over price fast food place that’s shows up here after they had it one time drunk on the strip.

Paywalled, but military is pushing to get leases renewed in 60 days. Includes a threat to use “more forceful” means to meet that deadline. That uh won’t be good #🌺news

Without disparaging these folks, who are caring mentors for these kids, I feel like this is a good example of how military relies on access to vulnerable kids. It's doubtless better for these youth that they're in a program with structure and upward potential, but sad that it's a funnel to war

A lot of ex STN folks have described exploitative (though not criminally so) and cultish environment.
I was tangentially involved back as a youth and know a few good folks involved at STN, aunties and uncles who were good to me. And they do some good with weekly outreach to homeless. 2/🧵

I think you’re right to be. Private market sources often skew wildly different than Census estimates which are far more comprehensive.
For instance, it’s just weird that rents are falling but also the % of folks paying 50%+ of income on rent is rising

It’s still the case that half the damn professional class of YIMBY’s is salivating over purported republican efficiency at housing and are quick to block if you bother pointing out basic facts like “actually the legislation you’re crowing over was introduced by dems”. Like Nolan Gray here lol.

I would agree if the link was blocked, but isn't for me. As for the image, it's tame so I am surprised it was flagged, but I don't want to just see nudity/gore on my feed without warning so I do have that setting turned on. So all said, I can't say I see an issue with it.

Anne you can keep saying this, but at this juncture since I provided sources, I’d appreciate if you could find a source that agrees with your definition.

Density bonus are absolutely part of IZ. Heck grounded solutions suggested renaming iz “density bonuses policy” in a 2017 report.

I appreciate your comments but you seem to misunderstand the 201-H program which is fine, you don’t seem to be in nor from Hawaii. 201-H is used by for profit devs. For instance Kuilei Place, a for profit development, took advantage of the 201-H project.
Also 201-H is textbook IZ?

Bonhoeffer has a similar quote. though less pithy, perhaps made more poignant by nature of him writing this note from a nazi prison before his execution.
