Allowing vehicles to be stacked vertically increases the number of people who can park in a situation where the quantity of land available is limited. https://t.co/jzS39RVXv8 — PolitiTweet.org

It’s a real-time wholesale makeover of what it means to be conservative, where the index value is loyalty to one guy rather than to an ideology. Creepy and weird, but also in some ways useful for constructing a big tent! — PolitiTweet.org

Sincerity is overrated but it’s interesting that in many contested races the “Trumpy” figure is also transparently phony — Greitens was a Democrat, Masters was an open borders libertarian, Vance was a Never Trumper, Oz loved Fauci. And of course there’s Trump himself. — PolitiTweet.org

It seems sub-optimal that: 1) Housing is by far the largest element of core inflation 2) Central banks have gigantic methodological disagreements over how to measure housing inflation — PolitiTweet.org

Among other things, this is a good reason to try to reduce demand through fiscal measures that can to an extent be better-targeted. — PolitiTweet.org

“Should cryptocurrencies be classified as a commodity or as a security for regulatory purposes” is one of the “sounds boring, has helped a lot of lobbyists buy bigger houses” topics that makes Washington so great. https://t.co/3Yg73waC4g https://t.co/wSW0u8ajY6 — PolitiTweet.org

@PReligions I don’t dismiss it, conceptually, it just seems like it would require someone to do some moderately difficult work in terms of developing a whole new approach, implementing it, validating it over time. It would be worth someone paying for a few efforts to see what happens. — PolitiTweet.org

What you need to do is admit that structural racism is *structural* and not the property of random actions by nonprofit managers or fixable via itnernecine struggle sessions. https://t.co/Q2XbkfkVU3 https://t.co/b8eHKfNQly — PolitiTweet.org

You also can’t really address the problem by marginally widening the aperture of which schools you recruit from — thanks to affirmative action the somewhat-selective colleges are *less* racially diverse than the most-selective ones. https://t.co/Q2XbkfkVU3 https://t.co/RGfzgRCMBH — PolitiTweet.org

This is what used to be called a “pipeline problem” but everyone got sick — in part for good reasons — of people making excuses about pipeline problems so now you can’t cite that anymore. But the problem hasn’t gone away! https://t.co/Q2XbkfkVU3 https://t.co/X6eWG5bdBS — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
What makes these goals unrealistic? There are large disparities in educational attainment, so it’s actually very natural that organizations who basically only employ graduates of selective colleges and up “underrepresenting” Black and Latin staff. https://t.co/Q2XbkfkVU3 https://t.co/EG0cE1JJSt — PolitiTweet.org

Progressive group leaders and the movement as a whole have accepted unrealistic implicit diversity goals plus the premise that failure to meet those goals is prima facie evidence of an internal culture of racism — they all stand indicated on their own terms. — PolitiTweet.org

I wrote today about @ryangrim’s piece on woke meltdowns at progressive nonprofits trying to make sense of *why* this keeps happening. There’s more than one answer but a key factor is ideological. https://t.co/Q2XbkfkVU3 — PolitiTweet.org

I hate to say that English people are right about anything, but calling the stuff you put in your cars "petrol" instead of "gas" is useful for avoiding ambiguity as to whether you're talking about gasoline or natural gas. — PolitiTweet.org
