10/10 weather for weeks. Halloween and Marathon in the same weekend. We will pay for this.
what could be better than creating shareholder value indoors during NYC's greatest stretch of weather in half a decade?
build more housing.
I'm in my 40s. I'm a lawyer. My wife is a lawyer. We both work full time.
We cannot afford the house my parents purchased on a single electrician's income in their 30s.
We cannot afford the house my immigrant grandparents purchased on a single MTA bus driver's salary in their 30s. They had SIX CHILDREN.
For 30 years, politicians in Washington & their oligarch allies convinced regular people that this was just about avocado toast and fancy coffee.
In reality, this is end-stage capitalism. Everyone is stuck in place. It's impossible to buy a home. It's too costly to move. We work too much to have passion projects. We don't have enough savings to start our own businesses. We can't afford to go without healthcare to do it.
Thanks for writing this article @troy_closson. Would be very happy to discuss further.

"Man's stock of tools marks out the stages of civilization, the stone age, the bronze age, the iron age. Tools are the result of successive improvement; the effort of all generations is embodied in them. The tool the direct and immediate expression of progress; it gives man essential assistance and essential freedom."
- Le Corbusier, Towards a New Architecture (1923)
The reason is pretty simple... constant stimulation is making our brains incapable of low-dopamine fun.
i've been ranting that $ABNB should acquire CLEAR and build partnerships with ride-share apps, ticketing platforms, etc.
Just saw that Expedia partnered with CLEAR and Uber: "Together, we’re connecting the journey so travelers can go from booking to boarding with less friction and more control,”
So obvious, and makes the case even stronger!
someone please buy this. 20 min left. these are getting hot

been thinking about this a lot. The algo is turning everyone into NPCs and the only way to avoid it is to reject the algo from entering your psyche.
Did the employee quit halfway through making this bowl? @ChipotleTweets you're better than this.
