I wonder what could be contributing to that:

From @ctpublic.bsky.social - Housing costs have doubled in just the 5 years in Connecticut's cities as the suburbs continue to delay, deny, and fight attempts to build housing This is Lamont's legacy www.ctpublic.org/news/2025-09...

The 20 minute layover on a through train between HFD and points south of NHV for the locomotive switch makes me think I’m in the olden days

This project drives me insane, the incredible @4freedoms.es put it into words ctexaminer.com/2025/09/23/m...

Fun fact, New Haven trains are scheduled to take up to 17 minutes to go the three miles from West Haven to New Haven... Egregious scheduling practices

A federal judge ruled on Monday that work can resume on Revolution Wind, a large and nearly complete offshore wind farm near Rhode Island. Construction on the project had been halted since Aug. 22, when the Trump administration issued a stop-work order. www.ctpublic.org/news/2025-09...

A few months ago, in chatting with a post office worker, I learned about the hobby of raising homing pigeons. This led me to a vibrant community of people in Connecticut who race pigeons. Reporting this was a lot of fun. ctmirror.org/2025/09/21/c...

Wow, the investment case for the ongoing renovations to the Peoples Bank Arena (aka XL Center aka Hartford Civic Center) is already paying off Selling out the new high end suites, tons concert date holds already. Going to be a lot busier downtown soon hartfordbusiness.com/article/peop...

If Akron can do this, Connecticut sure should be able to

This is hilarious, Fairfield cannot even build a god damn transmission tower and you think you're going to build a new 17 mile long cross sound bridge? (It would be interesting to have the Waterbury line continue on to Hicksville though!) www.ctinsider.com/news/article...

Help, I'm bad at math. Is needing to earn $41 per hour to afford a 2-bedroom home in Connecticut the sign of a healthy market? www.courant.com/2025/09/18/r...

Why would you vote in favor of this?

A generational talent and godsend to Connecticut has been harassed and hounded by the GOP and utility executives until it was too much. Everyone has their breaking point CT is a better place thanks to Marissa's steadfast work Everyone should queue up this @volts.wtf podcast from a happier time

Friday night @ginnymonk.bsky.social housing drop?!?! Must-read, as always ctmirror.org/2025/09/19/c...

Reminder that this group and their complete incoherence were what swayed Lamont to veto housing reform. Great people to take political advice from

Infrastructure is expensive, density is what makes it affordable to spread the cost among To connect a very remote part of South Windsor to the public water system would be $4M, for probably about a mile and a half of pipe www.courant.com/2025/09/17/a...

Exciting to see nearly 400 homes open up, 75 of which are already occupied in just two week - wow! Talk about insane housing need This one building contains more housing than 92% of Connecticut towns permitted over the last three years. Stamford cannot go it alone, everyone has to contribute

NEW: Mexico could displace ALL US gas imports for power generation, with solar and batteries ☀️ The country’s abundant sunshine means it can become a global solar superpower and boost its energy security at the same time:)

Riddle me this: we can afford a basketball team but not statewide lunch for kids?

If you were to read one thing today, make it this: The herculean efforts often unseen and always under appreciated of everyday people to make the world a better, safer place. Incredibly grateful for the Compass Youth program and been an enthusiastic supporter since first learning of them 🎁 🔗👇

Athletic are on a tear, great moments are born in Hartford

This is so crucial. When people think about these land comparisons, they don't think about the entire sprawling infrastructure behind FF.

Two recently approved developments coming to downtown Norwalk. Over 90 units of housing, 100,000sf of office, ground floor retail, and waterfront park and boardwalk! www.thehour.com/news/article...

This is real New York energy; outerborough energy. Mamdani said, "Come say that shit to my face." Andrew Cuomo could never.

Help move the needle, Ned listened to these unhinged weirdoes in June and vetoed the housing bill. Help give him the courage to do the right thing Tell him it is time to act! ctneedshomes.org

LMAO - straight villainy “I grew up here and …. I don’t want to have 1,000 more people in town but at the same time, I do want affordable housing” - From a person who serves on Ridgefield's P&Z For context: 1,000 more people would be a 4% population increase www.newstimes.com/news/article...

"While anti-housing politics can win in public meetings where land-use decisions are made by a small group of similarly minded people, state-level policymakers who reform this system have maintained & gained popularity by representing a broader... constituency." www.governing.com/urban/what-m...

Kenny made it to Hartford! Great photos 😍 Check out his page for other fun spots he stopped

Zoning is terrible in many ways but it totally stops the normal human desire to be helpful. Here we have a guy who is 71, looking around at his friends and family saying "I have the power to help them age in place, I should do that" Our current system is such a failure

Ridgefield CT is so fucking unhinged - 14 years apart, same property, same opposition

WE DID IT!!! 82 hours. 201,701 steps. Countless stories and supporters along the way. I’m proud, I’m sore, and I’m more certain than ever: Pennsylvanians won’t stop until we #FundTransit.

I’m a massive sucker for a small New England port city

Make hay whilst the sun shines 👩‍🌾☀️ From the latest EIA state electricity data released yesterday..

The world is undergoing an energy revolution and its happening with little fanfare There are two paths from here: 1. Recognize it and continue to clear the way for the obvious market winner 2. Double down, tie ourselves to the tracks, and pursue the idiotic plan to build a new gas pipeline to CT
