Mordor isn't a city, it's a country. Minas Morgul is a city, and eminently walkable.

This is simply not a walkable city

“[Shakespeare] is not only the Corneille and Racine of English literature, but also its Montaigne, with everything that [that] comparison implies in terms of a linguistic flavor that has since been lost. Don't even get me started on Shakespeare.”

Pitt has its own dysfunction. The Hill District should be thriving & built up, so close to downtown. Instead it remains under developed & full of vacant lots b/c gentrification would hurt ppls feelings.

97% of Americans are un-creative travelers. They go to Mexico and sit in a resorts, the Caribbean and dock on cruise ships. It’s a bummer for the City of Pittsburgh’s local businesses/neighborhoods, but the reality of American tourism. Especially people going to the NFL draft.

“We can begin to heal that rift between our love and actions, our values and our daily lives, by turning our attention to whatever patch of ground we have been given to tend, even if it is a potted planter on a balcony in the city.” — Ragan Sutterfield

@stevemouzon @Eric_Erins @UrbanCourtyard @NewUrbanism @StrongTowns Large scale modernism is oppressive and shallow, but a small 'clear glass box' in the woods has potential.

@stevemouzon @Eric_Erins @UrbanCourtyard @NewUrbanism @StrongTowns Some mid-century (including some modern) architecture is worthy, in the right context and at the right scale.

I’m gonna go ahead and call it. I think we’re officially past the peak of the ‘ugly building’ epidemic in America

My great thanks to the editors of @newversereview for housing my translation of Julia Nemirovskaya’s poem about the inner spirit—the zest, the spark—that keeps the abyss at bay.

Lovable buildings inspire us to help keep that lovability alive by maintaining them. If you don’t love this one, move on to one you do.
Hamilton 🇺🇸@Watchman_motto
The past is a foreign country. Hard to imagine adding all that detail along the gables. Someone would complain that it’s not maintenance-free.

Bullfighting should be banned.

Well put. When did dressing like a chav signal "inclusivity"?
Suella Braverman@SuellaBraverman
The lowering of standards in the name of ‘inclusivity’ continues. It doesn’t have to be lavish or expensive but a basic school uniform is the most ‘inclusive’ thing a school can have: everyone the same, united and held to the same expectations. And taught the importance of presenting well. This change will only increase bullying, as kids chase the latest trend. Very little surprise that this report is led by a Tory Wet.

Leahy's reasoning: x.com/michaelpleahy/…
Michael Patrick Leahy@michaelpleahy
@ASFleischman Mr. Fleischman, The methodology adopted by The Atlantic and Sarah Fitzpatrick clearly indicates a reckless disregard for the truth. 1) Two dozen anonymous sources. 2) A pre-publication letter identifying 19 instances of factual error which The Atlantic failed to address & more

Not only does this journalist believe that Kash Patel has a strong case against The Atlantic, but the journalist is award winning.

BREAKING: As an award winning journalist, it is my view that Kash Patel has a very strong defamation case against The Atlantic and Sarah Fitzpatrick. This morning he filed a $250 million defamation case against them. tennesseestar.com/justice/leahy-…
