a friend of mine once said that people in NY and SF are both assholes, but NY people think being an rear end in a top hat is cool, while people in SF think only bad people are assholes and get upset if they think you think they're one

this election has had some really gross eliminationist rhetoric in campaign literature and online posting around unhoused people. someone keeps making sockpuppets (always asian women for some reason) to take down our one Democratic Socialist supervisor, and there's a republican connection there apparently. huge money is getting spent against some of our city propositions. ugh.

That was pretty much my experience living in Marin [Novato] county and working in the presidio [Lucasfilm]. That whole peninsula is a NIMBY property values hellscape. Every time I see a legit affordable housing development proposal or transit expansion the locals flip out. Can't have poors coming into our area. Stay in Oakland, etc.

Yet that's only if he puts in place lasting protections that prohibit his rear end in a top hat neighbors from acquiring all those units ~somehow~ to only bulldoze them and put up a "park" or something.

In the DC area people ask "why aren't there sensibly-sized houses and not these massive gaudy monstrosities?" And of course, the answer is that if they did build a new (non-racist) Levittown-style community, all the building concerns (and the banks/billionaires backing them) around here would pay $$$ to have it legally burned down (or blocked) as to not devalue their "planned communities" full of the gaudy monstrosities.

Here in Arlington a big part of the problem is developers buying up old, sensibly sized single family homes only to tear it down and build a new 6 bedroom McMansion monstrosity at the maximum possible size for the lot.

I really need this to be true to pick me up at the moment, and I've seen this quote going massively viral, but there hasn't been a single video to back this up and it's bumming me out that it feels like an attention-grab for a hot phrase.

/edit:
Everything else about the reported circumstances is heart-lifting at least. The muslim folks in the spotlight that worked together to foil the whole thing/defend their fellow citizens is really heart-warming, and even if it turns out to be false, the fact that loving Austria is coming together under that hashtag to condemn terror instead of being split apart through xenophobia is quite a bit more than just a "net positive", so gently caress my personal feelings, good on them.

Maybe not the full quote, but i've seen a clip of someone yelling "Oaschloch!" out the window at one of the gunman last night. I couldn't make out anything else being shouted out of the windows because of the reverb. There was a goon a few miles away from it live posting on a SA-adjacent discord last night. He tipped us off to that bit and the two turkish guys and the palestinian guy saving a cop.

Dude's walking around with a 16 oz can of monster between his legs, apparently he's packing. Dunno why idiots thought revealing the man could be a porn star would be a thing they would want to do, but hey. He's probably got producers calling to negotiate shoots post-covid.

(for the record I haven't looked at the pictures, just taking it on faith from folks who did see, who said he is decently equipped. I did enough meatgazing in the military, I'm good)

I think one factor confounding this is that a lot of the D&D and CSPAM threads are in that new Slow Mode right now. Have to wait 10 minutes between posts. I actually like it because it stops the spam posting of hundreds of bs doom spraying responses or whatever. Maybe the whole forums is in slow mode rn?

90% of the names in all of Pennsylvania are either recycled European names, or mangled forms of Native American words.

JFK. Dunno if Johnson ever said anything similarly amusing, but McNamara flubbed some Vietnamese during Johnson's tenure:

quote:

At one joint appearance, General Samuel Wilson, then associate director for USAID field operations, remembered, Khanh delivered a long, tedious speech in Vietnamese, ending with, “Vietnam muôn năm! Vietnam muôn năm! Vietnam muôn năm!”—“Vietnam, ten thousand years!”

At which point, McNamara grabbed one fist and Maxwell Taylor grabbed the other and they held them up, and McNamara leaned over to the microphone and tried to say “Vietnam muôn năm,” but, because he wasn’t aware of the tonal difference, the crowd practically disintegrated on the cobblestones.

What he was saying was something like “The little duck, he wants to lie down.”
