Gruen ended up mostly being known for designing shopping malls but had a good understanding of how to make buildings and public spaces that people feel comfortable in, the need for cities to accommodate a growing population, and the costs of our growth on the earth. Here's the text of the first chapter of "Centers for the Urban Environment."

edit: i hate when effort posts lost to snipes

Here's my list:

1. The Color of Law: A Forgotten History of How Our Government Segregated America - significant emphasis on how just how "systemic" the problem was, focus is on local land law and the biases of elected officials and their public servants. fantastic footnotes

-

2. Rationality and Power: Democracy in Practice - this one is good if you want to see the real politics�and real "rationality"�of policy-making, administration, and planning in a case study (the City of Aalborg)

-

3. The Zoning Game - great behind-the-counter analysis of decision making on zoning and land development, especially as it relates to case law

-

BONUS: The Art of Classic Planning - this one isn't really related to government, but this is a high end book that I very much desperately want to read (its like $100+ RIP me)

this thread has been killing it

how is plastic so evil and further research keeps finding other ways that plastic is evil.

at some point you�d think there might be one good thing from infecting everything with plastic.

Yeah I don't think a "Give up and embrace the void" level of Climate Doomerism is helpful or wanted here. If we are taking the dome video at its word, there's nothing to be done but accept our demise. And frankly, that is neither useful discission nor helpful. We are not dead yet, nor are we likely, as a species, to fail anytime soon. So talking about the grieving process doesn't make a lot of sense because its not that final yet.

Is it going to loving suck as climate change gets worse? Yup. It will. It already is. But that's not a reason to give up yet.

I mean, I don�t have any influence over my favorite sport teams. I still like to analyze them and post about them.

There is nothing any of us can individually do to defeat climate change and it seems exceedingly likely that, yeah there is no hope and everyone is doomed.

I will still post about it

yes, but it's Nature Scientific Reports

academia has rotted away from the inside and bent the knee to mammon over the last, oh, 30, but especially the last ten years

there's degree inflation/devaluation, fewer job openings, below-poverty "stipends" for most researchers, and the "publish or perish" culture has been cranked to 999 as institutions corporatize and fill up with high-paid managerial-class idiots who need to create and then juice their metrics

so following on from that that, academic journals all have low-standard pay-to-publish spinoffs now, which will kind of just accept any old poo poo, and even better for the publishers, they can say "sorry can't accept your paper into [flagship] Nature X, but have you considered our ~Scientific Reports~?" Nature in particular are doing quite well off of this, as their name still has a lot of cachet, although they're working hard to erode that among academics with this bullshit

there might be some good research in Scientific Reports, sometimes? who knows. they published like 25,000 papers in 2021 alone, who the gently caress is reading any of that.

wow i'm worked up now

honestly i don't think there's even anything specifically wrong with the billionaires as human beings. the hoarding, number obsession thing is deeply human; look at MMO players, people climbing comp shooter ladders, playing EVE. this is just what happens when humans accrue that kind of power and make decisions with these kinds of stakes without being mentally inoculated against those natural psychological impulses. that's why I've said and maintain that the Great Filter is capitalism. put any random person through the process of accruing a whole shitload of money and they will also turn into a psychopath; I mean, look at any leftist podcaster/streamer that hit it big for an example.

the truth is the game was rigged from the start

what leftist podcasters are you talking about that hit it big and turned into psychopaths?

They took $25+ million from katzenberg (who�s a also a Liz Cheney fan lmao) and other dnc billionaires while pretending to be some edgy anti establishment org, when in reality they accepted a buyout in exchange for telling you voting/elections matter, which inherently props up the establishment they claim to be against . The same establishment that is destroying the biosphere on earth, endless militarism/spending, keeping healthcare private, privatizing education, etc. hasan even displays the hammer and sickle when he does all this . They�re loving scum

what the gently caress

I thought they were doing well by streamer standards like maybe $100k a month via patreon or some poo poo.

why did a centrist billionaire give them $25 million???

was this money all for the young Turk people?

thank you for sharing this info with me! I�m mad!

i went down the magnesium rabbit hole when I was doing the keto diet in 2012 and had the same reaction

there's a lot of diseases that are Completely Unique to Western Society and then you find out the american diet is basically devoid of potassium or magnesium or most essential nutrients and there's basically no supplement that is a functional replacement for dietary sources of those nutrients, and getting dietary sources of those nutrients is hard...

We also have a diet that is often insanely high in the wrong types of calcium so many americans gobble up a calcium supplement and eat a calcium rich diet and somehow still end up calcium deficient because none of the calcium is absorbing

edit: and just loving try to meet your daily potassium needs with food, you need to eat three loving cups of nuts a day! Possibly way more if they're lovely nuts! It may be impossible if they're processed! wild nuts were a primary staple for hunter-gatherers in virtually every culture prior to agrarianism, now our stomachs are so loving weak you throw up if you eat a single 8 oz bag of pistachios

there's a reason the clean living people are so loving crazy, there's no way to stare into the black mirror of the nutrition label and not see the horror of the dietary prison we have built for ourselves, a panopticon of relentless suffering and unaccounted misery

this is a while back but I�d love to see some resources you found that go into this topic. crunchy peer reviewed content in this area of study seems like it could take my crack ping to a whole other level :ssj:
