Completely obsessed with Kings Island rebranding their Italian Job ride so that the theme is just the city of Cincinnati. “Have you ever watched an insane car chase in a movie and thought, I’d love to do that at 40 mph in Cincinnati” 😅😅

Mamdani has Cuomo out here campaigning about how he’s proud that he proposed raising new revenue to address people’s needs, instead of cutting it. This is how a strong left movement can change the conversation about what we all deserve. Love to see it 🥹

Testified today about how we need to restrict extreme and unreasonable rent increases by the real estate industry. Rent gouging is putting significant stress on our housing assistance programs and should be illegal. #mapoli

I generally hate how much Dunkin Donuts is a part of MA culture, but it is actually kind of fun to see this printed on a reusable cup in Allentown, Pennsylvania

The US has some of the lowest overall tax collections of any high income country. Taxes aren’t making life unaffordable - underfunded public goods, for profit health care, and skyrocketing housing costs very much are!

Rafael read from a letter that his mom wrote, who is a tenant in Lynn facing an extreme rent increase. She wrote “you shouldn’t be able to just buy a building and just run over the people in it like a tractor.”

A small landlord from Dorchester talks about how he would have no problem keeping up with costs, and making a small profit, under rent control. What’s happening now is rent gouging!

Annie Gordon talking about how in Mattapan, community fought for a new train station which was then used by a corporate investor as justification to rent gouge because of transit access and displace people. They negotiated stabilized rents for their building through tenant organizing ✊

Prof. Ed Goetz explaining that the economic sensationalism over rent control is based on old rent control policies that were often enacted during war time, not the policies we are talking about today. Modern rent control allows rent increases linked to inflation and contains reasonable exemptions

The rent is too high and tenants need protections! Rents have risen at nearly double the rate of inflation in the last several years. That’s landlords price gouging because they can, and it needs to stop. Rent control is a reasonable and important piece of an equitable approach to housing 👏

It’s a little silly that California puts special warning labels on cars advising people (correctly) of the health risks that cars create, but continues to be one of the most car-centric states in the country - this was my walk to get coffee this morning
