Great point from Daniel Kay Hertz on the other app Chicago is on the verge of enacting an ordinance to re-legalize ADUs. But there is a carve out for single-family districts, which is only being considered by the city because Trump has stopped civil rights enforcement at HUD

We are on track for the first year of population decline in the history of our country. It’s going to manifest in all kinds of destructive ways. Republicans are the degrowth party.

Alderman Gardiner has denied the approval of 48 new apartments next to the Edgebrook Metra station. Across the street from a forest preserve. It's no wonder why property taxes are climbing, transit ridership is stalling, and our parks are filling up with tents

Mayor Anne Hidalgo of Paris, on the importance of mayoral leadership on great streets for walking, biking, and public transit: "Show courage. They all called me crazy…But at the end of all of it, now they want more."

There's a dark irony to all these non-car-oriented projects being cancelled by Trump, which is: Every year, blue states burn hundreds of billions of transportation dollars making the same bad choices to subsidize cars. Only, from the left. Could change it with one pen stroke.

PFB is an illness that is genetic and largely affects Black men. Repeated shaving makes it worse. If you’re Black and in the Navy, your choices will be to scar your face or leave the service.
