Periodic reminder that in California, 95% of school districts are only able meet the meager state minimum per child funding requirements due to state aid - not property taxes (thanks Prop 13). And this state aid comes from… income taxes!

California math question: which house do you think pays more in property taxes?

Don’t forget to report your income from illegal activities and stolen goods as you’re doing your taxes this year 🙂‍↕️

The California Coastal Commission is a totally underrated villain in this story. LA applied for coastal development permits in 2022. It took 2.5 years of delay before they were finally approved. Had permits been issued that year, Park's predecessor would've been in office & it would've been built.

So it seems you just get findommed by everyone involved in a real estate transaction and everyone is ok with that?

Compared to LA, Tehran’s metro has over 10x the ridership and nearly twice the track length despite starting construction 10 years later. All in a city where the average income is 1/20 of LA.

So my company writing into the handbook “uhhhh idk if we have money for raises anymore” is pretty bad right?

Lorne Michaels has gone too far

At this point it seems the 250 in America250 is the price of crude oil on July 4, 2026
