Agree! With the added note that they shouldn't do it the way the developers in my area did: they pitched it as affordable, accessible mixed use, and then built luxury homes that normal people couldn't afford.

Making a career change from an industry with several active unions (all of which continue to be proven as vital, even after over 100 years), into the tech industry in the mid-2010s, where there was no union and you'd hear horror stories (especially from the video game industry), I can't help but feel like this was inevitable and I've been excited to watch it happen for almost 10 years. I hope it continues.

Google reverse image search has it showing up on ytmnd in 2006. I don't think it's AI generated.

Last I heard, early numbers were reporting a 100% fatality rate in cats. Doubtful it's still 100%, but that goes to show that it's exceptionally dangerous to our friends of the feline persuasion. I'd previously been giving my cat freeze-dried chicken hearts as an iron supplement with the added benefit of dental health...not so much these days.

"Last fall, the Senate Budget Committee demanded the country’s largest insurance companies provide the number of nonrenewals by county and year. The result is a map that tracks the climate crisis in a new way."
