Unironically, a 40% markup for a grocery order from people who are wealthy enough to afford it is a great business model. 10/10

New social housing in Paris vs. new social housing in Chicago
The Paris social housing building was erected in 10 days using a mass timber kit, delivering six units and a community space at $170k/unit excluding land (but it was built on a 1000sqft lot, so land use was EFFICIENT)
The proposed Chicago project will be over $600k/unit, which is pretty low by recent Chicago social housing standards. Anyone's bet how many years it will take to finish.

Here are four new social housing projects in Paris that look better than 99% of market rate apartments in North America

It turns out that cornices & sloping roofs are good for buildings in moist climates. Who knew?

We'll build Cambridge beautiful, they said .... Meanwhile, here's what gets built.... It deteriorated quickly and has never been 'repaired' - the Kings Hedges Rd frontage of Orchard Park. Not sure if this was Persimmon or Barrett, though am sure quality of both is dismal.

President Trump says the US will help manage โtraffic buildupโ in the Strait of Hormuz, adding โbig money will be madeโ and that Iran can begin reconstruction. Under the ceasefire, Iran will collect transit fees to fund rebuilding. ๐ด LIVE updates: aje.news/9k7fl9

Weโve underinvested in parks and recreation for over a decade. Now itโs catching up with us.
72% of facilities are in poor or very poor condition.
Itโs time to invest in what residents of Vancouver rely on every day.

it's amazing what hosting the summer olympics can do investment wise in transit.

Between 2010 and 2025, the Mรฉtropole du Grand Paris added nearly 160 kilometres of new or extended transit lines and opened 200 new transit stations across the region. This is a remarkable achievement and one that is reshaping the Mรฉtropole. โฌ๏ธ

Of all the things that have surprised me about Americansโ reactions to Trump, this probably surprises me the most: the relatively passive response to his grotesque, perfectly open corruption of the office.
Thomas P (TOM) Logan ๐ฏ๐ต ๐บ๐ธ@TokyoTom2020
The lead article in #LePoint from #France (โThe Great Heistโ)is an extensive investigation into the intersection of Trumpโs second term and his and familyโs private business interests. The report argues that the White House under Trump has shockingly been transformed into a "cash machine" for the #Trump family and their associates. Key themes of the article include: 1. The "Crypto-President": The report examines how the administrationโs shift toward pro-crypto policies coincided with the launch of Trump-branded digital assets and "World Liberty Financial," alleging that regulatory decisions are being influenced by the President's personal holdings. 2. Insider Trading Allegations: Le Point investigates "troubling" market fluctuations that occur immediately following the President's social media posts or policy announcements. It suggests that a small circle of "insiders" may be profiting from prior knowledge of these shifts. 3. Real Estate & Private Clubs: The article details how foreign delegations and lobbyists continue to frequent Trump-owned properties (like Mar-a-Lago), creating a system where access to the Commander-in-Chief is effectively a commercial transaction. 4. The "Trumpification" of Washington: Beyond the money, the article describes an "aesthetic of power," where the Presidentโs personal brandโsymbolized by the gold coin shown on the coverโis being merged with the official symbols of the American state as the country approaches its 250th anniversary. The tone of the piece is highly critical, framing these actions not just as ethical lapses, but as a systematic "heist" of democratic norms for private gain.

Excellent @shaneharris article.
Money quote: "The intelligence community was accurate and consistent in its prewar judgments about Iranโs capabilities and intentions to attack the United States and its allies. Contrary to what President Trump has said to justify his decision, the intelligence showed that the Iranian regime was not preparing to use a nuclear weapon; it did not have ballistic missiles capable of reaching the United States; and in response to a U.S. military attack, Iran was likely to strike at neighboring countries in the Persian Gulf and try to close the Strait of Hormuz, precipitating a global economic crisis. All of this was known before the war and presented to President Trump. This was an intelligence success."

@fabulavancouver that's why we need to bring back the street car line from science world to Granville Island, and maybe to kits point.

I love how Vancouverites pour into the streets at any hint of sun. Fabulous day to be out and walking from Olympic village to Granville Island, with things to see along the way like below. But impossible to take the little ferry back โ 100-person line-up
