This was the first one I got my hands on as a kid, so I feel the same way. It'll always be my intro book.

Do they... explain how that's supposed to work?
As in "You have to give Apple money to make the next iphone"? Or some other shit?

I don't want to give them a hate-click.

For the most part, they support it, they like it, they want more of it. They're just nervous about saying so where people can hear, because they think 'wokeness' will unfairly punish them for saying what they think.

Is this just about resource shortage, or do they have some kind of instructions to reduce ADHD medication usage?

Upzone every place in the US but especially California.

Thank you.

Yeah it sucks to be poor, yeah we should do more, yeah the rent is too high, yeah gavin newsom sucks... But if we took a bunch of poor people and had them live like poor people in 1933, we'd probably call it a war crime.

You're contradicting yourself inside of one tweet, admitting it wasn't remotely as bad as the great depression for poor people, then insisting that, for poor people, it was the great depression.

No! It wasn't! That's not true!
November 23, 2025 at 8:09 PM
I get your point, I simply disagree with it because it is unsubstantiated.
The economy in the great depression was MUCH MUCH MUCH WORSE for poor people than 2024 was for poor people.

Unemployment hit 25% in 1933. People were starving to death. Most people didn't have indoor plumbing.

This is not serving to convince me the economy, or the housing situation, was better in the 1930s.
November 23, 2025 at 7:51 PM
Are these pictures really what's convincing people the economy was better back then?
November 23, 2025 at 7:48 PM
Which is also ignoring that millions of layoffs happen in an average year. The unemployment rate in 2024 was at a historic low.
This applies to every metric for unemployment you care to choose.

Homelessness today is caused by zoning creating insane rent, not low wages.

Picking the nicest looking shanty in a homeless encampment seems pretty disingenuous.

During the lockdowns, we'd refer to the homeless encampment in a park up the road as a hooverville. Does that mean they weren't homeless either? Are homeless in shelters also not homeless...?
November 23, 2025 at 7:40 PM
That's not true. In the great depression there were millions of homeless, compared with 700k now.

There were 2 million layoffs in 2015. There were 22 million when the lockdowns started in 2020. If we were under a million in 2024, that's a historic low.
November 23, 2025 at 7:18 PM
That's right.
There was also "Holocaust Harris."
And I'm sure you'd have a nickname for Hillary, and a nickname for the next Dem president.

But never one for a Republican.

Trump massively expanded the drone war, then Biden ended it, then Trump restarted it and is blowing up random people for no reason.

You are speaking from a place of pure ideology.

This entire profession needs to be dismantled.
It isn't right that people have made entire careers out of creating the housing crisis.

Salt was never worth more than gold. Medieval peasants used it to preserve food.
