Cry harder

🚨BREAKING: Immediately after the South Carolina legislature ended their legislative session Thursday, Gov. Henry McMaster (R) called lawmakers back to redraw the state’s congressional map and eliminate its lone majority-Black district. democracydocket.com/news-alerts/so…

@marceelias Hopefully you will soon be in prison for many years

Disgraceful. Absolutely disgraceful. democracydocket.com/news-alerts/co…

@credealjunkie @coryfromphilly @SukritGanesh Inside rumor the city will eliminate affordable requirements for 25 units and less.

Break the labor unions stranglehold on construction pricing in SF, fire 90% of the building and planning dept staff who are still obstructing new projects, exempt new housing permanently from property tax. Do those three things and it would help. But also accept that many neighborhoods will forever be out of reach of working class people who want to move there. You don’t have to like but that’s the truth

Starting to understand why so many people can’t stand YIMBYs who cannot hold a nuanced discussion about how the housing market actually works.

Massie is a beaten man. Boebert looks like a 12 y/o playing dress up and hiding behind a large cowboy hat.

Tina Peters, the Republican former election clerk imprisoned for crimes related to efforts to overturn the 2020 election, will receive clemency from Colorado’s Democratic Gov. Jared Polis and soon be released from custody, Polis exclusively told CNN. cnn.com/2026/05/15/pol…

@Scheidsa We’re winning this thing we even have our own song!

Trying to decide between 131 units on the west side with views or 30 single-family homes. The heavy infrastructure costs on the SFR scheme and improving condo market are pushing me toward the units, but I’m still seeking opinions. This would be wood over podium built into a hillside, not commodity SOMA-style Type I studios and one-bedrooms.

@Jimmydahitman60 “Developable”

If you could go back in time about 40 year, San Francisco could probably have built its way out of today’s supply shortage. But that ship has sailed. There’s not enough developable land in the most desirable neighborhoods to make a dent. Because of rent control.

@moseskagan I understand it has to be done, but being an eviction lawyer is not my life’s calling. In most cases, I don’t have much sympathy for the people being evicted — it’s just a lousy way to spend your life. What I truly love is building.

Life cycle of LA eviction law firms: - Smart lawyer starts firm - Demonstrates chops - More business floods in that s/he can handle - Hires associates who aren't as good - Service level declines materially - Business goes elsewhere Wonder if AI will allow the founders to leverage themselves across more cases, and thereby keep service level up?

@realEstateTrent @robbiehendricks It's really the GC that needs to do the DD if the potential client is a prick and has been involved in litigation or if they are an attorney or an internet RE guru. Run as fast as you can!

@robbiehendricks Things often get nutty w all the DD in the world and the most reputable companies. Too many moving parts and people involved for mistakes not to be made. Strong argument for avoiding new build at all costs.

Yet another person I know is dealing with massive issues with the contractor building their house. Huge mistakes made, construction stopped, contractor blaming others, attorneys getting involved, and years of litigation ahead. It's a nightmare, and sadly all too common.

@Cernovich I love him he was railroaded

@credealjunkie The ones who were turned down were only making 20k

Just heard about a studio in SF’s Richmond district that rented for $2,995. Which sounds like a lot until you hear that the tenant only pays 12% of their income on rent because they make $25,000 per month.

@twallyweb I'm in SF you have no idea brother.

Just watched this poor lady (not a career developer) get brutally mogged and denied at a public meeting over 11 townhomes. Back in the day, a normal citizen could build shit on their land, unfortunately now you need an 8 figure balance sheet, a degree in urban planning, finance, law, and engineering just to monetize your property.

@DDrolapas Two words Owner move in.

8 unit apartment building in San Francisco for $346 per square foot Nobody wants it. 2 unit apartment building down the street for $415 per square foot There’s a line out the door.

@credealjunkie That likely means rents will continue to increase at an accelerating pace

The SF apartment story in a single chart. Over the past 9 years: Rents are up about 1% per year Real rents are down Affordability is 20% better (because income is up ~35%) But man it don’t feel like that

Democrats have the lowest IQs.

@StephenMPinto @nithyavraman No

@nithyavraman Does anyone actually buy into this shit?

“if you’re a climate voter deciding what to do in the June 2 primary, I’m confident in saying that Raman is a better choice than the incumbent — especially now that I’ve talked wither her about her climate plan, which was released today” climatecoloredgoggles.com/p/nithya-raman…

@mchooyah You ate the whole thing. There were no pieces then. The correct answer is I ate zero pieces.

If you eat the entire carrot cake without cutting it. No knife. Did you only have one piece? Information purposes only…

@rohindhar Still a lot of space X shareholders around SF

For folks waiting to buy a place in San Francisco Till after the OpenAI and Anthropic liquidity “works its way through the system” and prices then stabilize or decline I regret to inform you There are like 98 other juggernaut companies in SF waiting in the wings
