I'm starting to become a one-issue voter and that one issue is building more housing. Housing is such a crisis and causing most economic issues. Gen Z falling behind? Not really, but they can't afford a house! People aren't willing to switch jobs because they can't move

Every time this issue comes up, I feel completely out of the loop. Do people actually cook in church kitchens?
The fact that Mormons believe you can use a kitchen for reheating or serving food but not for cooking or preparing food is mind boggling to me.

One of my favorite things these days is when angry twitter randos call me a Marxist. It's very funny to me
@joecooprider @bcbaker66 A Marxist Mormon Just never thought I would see the day

Unfortunately @ASU cancelled our Unfuck America Tour event that we had scheduled on Monday with @TheOmniLiberal but we are still showing up on campus anyway. As a result we are filing a lawsuit against Arizona State University for violating our First Amendment rights. The same

People who say Mueller found nothing are either misinformed or just lying

Reminder that Mueller indicted 26 Russians and 8 Americans for working together to interfere with the election. All 8 Americans were convicted in court, but 5 were pardoned by Trump.

Yup, that tracks. Build more housing
Fertility has fallen in the United States. At the same time, housing has gotten substantially more expensive. Are these related? How so? Benjamin Couillard attributes fully half of the fertility decline of the 2000s and 2010s to housing prices, a loss of 13 million children! 1/

The idea that crime is higher now than it was in 1975 drives me insane. It is incorrect and completely disconnected from reality

This season may be a disappointment for BYU, but I have had a lot of fun. AJ is awesome and has been a great ambassador for BYU. Worth the investment

My hot take: whatever happened to Keita has been more impactful on BYU's season than Saunders injury. Saunders offense can be replaced, but Keita's defense/rim pressure cannot

I have the quad box on and since there is no game, each box is just showing AJ Dybantsa highlights

Instacart tried customer specific dynamic pricing and it ended in disaster.

Very interested to see how this goes. Being able to change prices sounds good, but customers don't love price variation.
Walmart is rolling out digital price tags at all of its stores. At the same time, the corporate giant just secured a patent for "dynamically and automatically updating item prices.” Plus another patent for using machine learning to predict demand and recommend prices.

The NBA being in dark times is such a weird narrative disconnected from reality.
Victor Wembanyama is doing more than chasing MVP. He is changing the energy around the NBA. If you somehow haven’t noticed by now, the 22-year-old who has been such a bright spot in these dark NBA times is relentlessly and refreshingly competitive.

KP is +4 in a game his team is losing by 16 and that feels right. The game is tough when he is on the court. Not so much when he is resting
