Teach economics to kids Iโ€™m serious
knowing economics alienates you from left wing friend groups itโ€™s crazy. i explain how a thing works in america and itโ€™s always โ€œno but it shouldnโ€™t be that wayโ€ like ok sure thereโ€™s drawbacks i agree. and then you ask what the solution is and they just say โ€œnot do thatโ€

I get that this take wins internet points, but in real life strangers DO participate. As a millennial dad, I canโ€™t tell you how many times Iโ€™ve told my kids โ€œdonโ€™t bother peopleโ€ only for the stranger to be like โ€œno no, itโ€™s okay.โ€ So I feel like everyoneโ€™s a little complicit.

The dad seemed to think we would be really excited to participate in his child rearing with him lol. These people learned about the concept of โ€œit takes a villageโ€ from the internet and now expect help total capitulation from strangers

I have this vision of a toy thatโ€™s a supply and demand graph where you can push either curve and it moves the equilibrium price. I know this can be easily illustrated with an animation, but I want it to be a physical toy. Would you buy something like this??

If I said Free Britney benefited from Woke 1, would that make sense and would you agree?

For anyone interested in studying real examples of 180 degree rule violations that confuse the viewer, vertical series are rife with them because they notoriously donโ€™t shoot enough coverage.
Exactly. This is a principle used to not confuse viewers particularly when a dialogue scene is taking place. Action jump cuts don't really count as they're far less confusing.

Might be a hot take, but I think we donโ€™t publicly shame NIMBYs enough.
I started live tweeting the first public hearing for an SB 79 project in Santa Monica, but I deleted it because it felt disrespectful to the neighbors. At the same time, some really crazy out-of-pocket things were said

I rebuke another round of discourse about this matter.
Asian-americans have exactly one story to tell and boy do they want to tell it

This is not a 180 degree rule break. But the scene in Obsession where Nikki is backlit in Bearโ€™s doorway is.
nice 180 degree rule break there at the start

One of the more aggravating things about being a Britney fan is the way everyone who works for her has always treated us like we were born yesterday.

what was the "monkey paw" with the billion dollar wish. Yea Ian dies but we didn't see what his negative situation would have been

I have a question about CD13. Both Dylan Kendall and Rich Sarian, in the HAC debate and in interviews with YIMBY LA, said there isnโ€™t much R1 in CD13. Is this true? Weโ€™d assumed that Hugo Soto-Martinez buckled under pressure from Hancock Park to vote against the CHIP amendment.
Great to see Katy endorsing dense towers on Wilshire, but... She voted against adding even some single-fam areas behind Wilshire/a new heavy rail line from dense development on our housing plan CHIP. Heck, her vote blocked even minor density (like 3-story apts) in yellow areas:

Two groups stand in the way of housing affordability: those who donโ€™t want it (NIMBY) and those who donโ€™t believe in the solutions (Left NIMBY). Which group is more problematic?

this is why iโ€™m a YIMBY. i want a world where you can be a creative, builder, or someone following their dreams and be able to live. rent seeking is so out of control that you have to be perfect to live with dignity. that isnโ€™t how you grow an economy or culture.
I've been working in film/tv as a freelancer for most of my adult life and I hate to say that it's no longer sustainable for me. Almost everyone I've worked with and befriended these last 15+ years moved away from LA or are struggling to pay rent & utilities & etc. out here.
