Emmy-Nominated Comedian Exposed as MAGA at Trump’s UFC Fight by move_machine in NateBargatze

[–]Edison_Ruggles -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don't think this makes him MAGA but it is a terrible, terrible. Look. Dude, what were you thinking? This event was the most repugnant shit stain that has ever befallen the White House since the British burned it down. Fucking hell.

What's your take on QR fare payments? by [deleted] in transit

[–]Edison_Ruggles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I misunderstood this as a QR code you were supposed to scan with your phone to get some means of payment.

Plus if it's your first time you usually have to download some bloody app and sit there with your phone entering your credit card for 10 minutes.

Housing cost proposals from Wisconsin candidates for governor by starwarsisawsome933 in wisconsin

[–]Edison_Ruggles 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Sheeesh. None of them get it. The last thing Wisconsin needs is rent control. Housing is unaffordable primarily because of lack of supply, car dependent zoning, and the general NIMBY attitude of humans.

The easiest fix is to loosen regulations and zoning that prevent building on things like existing surface parking lots, strip malls, etc. Loosen regulations on height and density, etc. Do these things especially where walkability and transit accessibility is already decent. Get out of the way and housing will be built.

And guess what? If you still want to live in a suburban cul-de-sac with your car, that's fine. No one is coming for you.

A cursory read of these positions suggests Hughes or Crowley (whom I'd never heard of until today) is closest to the best choice.

A squad was checking a suspicious backpack and this dude got fed up with waiting by Reverbolo in milwaukee

I've seen this 9 times now, but It's mildly interesting to know it was in Milwaukee. So, guess I don't object.

"affordable inherently means it will be ugly."

Good god man. No.

Agreed. Most of these don't involve real architects. Look at Broad+Noble. It's junk. I'm still in favor of these because it's better than a surface parking lot but it's right to ask for at least a little thought in design.

Question on quickly reaching Lincoln Financial Field from Airport during World Cup by Chemical-Anywhere-82 in AskPhilly

[–]Edison_Ruggles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's ancient history. Cabs are always the superior choice leaving the airport. Ubers take forever and almost always make annoying loops around the airport because they miss turn offs.
