I think this is broadly likely although preposterous given that 65% of units and homes in SF are already rentals!
So is it that they worry about new renters in their neighborhood or just that more density will lower value of their SFH. Which...would it even?
If low-income renters fear that SB50’s transit/density incentives would cause more evictions (which...how?) and SFH owners fear it would drive down/level off their gains (which...would it?) could it just be that people fear change.

That they are twice as bad as Station in Tenderloin (with comparable/greater crime and arrest rates) is really alarming. But for a resident, unsurprising. And not just b/c of bad use of force. In 18 yrs seen a cop walking beat in Mission maybe twice. It’s all squad cars and...
...the station itself is built like a bunker. No windows looking out, no peaceful interaction with neighborhood. Get cops out of cars and on bikes and foot for at least some patrol. Talk to neighbors!
In contrast the Engine 7 @SFFDPIO fire station (and city wide training ground) hosts a Halloween costume contest, Clean Sweep events, those guys are out and about in the neighborhood...

Visiting LA is ever thus:

Step 1: cool neighborhood! Great weather.
Step 2: fuck this traffic, no.
LA with 1/2 traffic, massive investment in public transit and bikes would be awesome.
Are they having the density argument we are having in Bay Area, because it is even less dense than I remember.

This is why we need state-wide laws

#NEW We have matched up county-level preferences for music genres with 2016 election results and have found the👏 key👏 data 👏 that capture the cultural currents that made Obama supporters flip to Donald Trump:

liking hard rock music.

THREAD.

economist.com/graphic-detail…
The data we have (from @VividSeats) is truly incredible. In every county, we have a record of the share of concert/etc ticket sales that fall into each genre in 2015/19. Here's that map (with each county scaled for population). Cities like rap/hip hop. Rural areas like country.
The music genre that most correlates with Republican vote share is, as you might expect, country music. A preference for "New Age" music (whatever that is) and Rock are also "red". Rap, Hip Hop & R&B, as mentioned, are "blue" music—as is liking alternative artists or Latin music.

#REDFLAG: After a setback in the Supreme Court, Trump asks his lawyers if he can DELAY THE CENSUS

The census is constitutionally-mandated to begin in April 2020, under Article I, Section 2.

Trump is asking if he can IGNORE the Constitution b/c he doesn't like a SCOTUS decision.
#RELATED: The Supreme Court ruled against the Trump Administration's proposal to add a citizenship question to the 2020 Census...for now.

It would've led to a severe undercount, which would've rigged elections and resources in favor of white Republicans.
#HUGEWIN: The Trump Administration will begin printing the 2020 Census WITHOUT the citizenship question.

After missing their deadline, some feared Trump may actually try to defy the Constitution and the law.

This is an incredible victory for democracy!

The inability of rich neoliberal centrist elites in western capitals to understand - or even hide their scorn for - the anger & grievances of rural and working-class people over their economic suffering is one of the 2 or 3 most important causes of contemporary political changes:
Media outlets keep explaining the French protests are about so much more than the fuel tax (which Macron already rescinded) - it's about general anger over wealth inequality, Paris elites & declining living standards - yet neoliberals ignore it. NYT today: nytimes.com/2018/12/08/wor…
That the head of the Democrats' most influential DC think tank is so rich and insulated that she literally can't understand the inability of already-struggling rural and working-class voters to pay new taxes, and demonizes their anger of wealth inequality, says it all.

The Twitter discussion about postdoc searches was informative & very eye-opening.Coming from a particular R1 environment I was surprised at the diversity of thoughts on this. Before I exit this discussion I wanted to summarize my own thoughts-warning, its a long thread
—they are specific to the US, my field and institutions like mine (@UNC)
First, what am I looking for in a postdoc. Three things. 1. a solid record of productivity and at least one 1st author pub. It doesn’t have to be a flash journal but pubs are our fields currency and a prerequisite for having a chance at getting your own funding.

And who said: "unconditional direct income support to farmers is manifestly absurd in today’s world when it maintains uncompetitive farming practices that have negative implications for the climate, the environment or people’s health"?
