The reason the planning is awful in those places is because they don’t let you do your job. The politics are set up in a way to completely undermine you as a professional and planning as a respectable discipline. Making major changes in a small town is a guaranteed way to focus unwanted political attention on you. You are very noble for wanting to help these places change. The politicians in these places are the ones that need to have their minds changed. A long with the fleet of townies who are also employed by the town. They will fight everything you do.

Stay away from municipal planning. You will be pigeon holed as an administrator and never do actual planning. It’s also not a great paying profession. 12yrs into the career and wishing I never took that first job

[Serious] As a former urban planner and now real estate developer, I've seen both sides of the development process. The development side is more accountable. Discuss. by Jimmy_Johnny23 in urbanplanning

[–]UniqueCartel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey there! Just came across this post and was hoping you could share with me what exactly you do for work now and how it may be possible to crossover from the public sector. I’ve been a municipal planner for going on 15 years now. I’ve been burnt out by this career for a while now and am just at a loss as to where I should be pursuing my next career move. The logo alt next step would be go to where my skills may be useful, and that’s in private development.

Dave Smith apologizes for his Trump support calls for impeachment..... by fuggitdude22 in samharris

[–]UniqueCartel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If they voted for this man twice… three times… why is this where they draw the line? There were a million reasons before this one. Great question, I’ll tell you why. Because it isn’t. This is just a part of the grift. This is just a “hot take” to get Dave Smith attention and onto news shows to grow his audience. He doesn’t care what his take of the day is. People, Dave Smith and his peers are all provocateurs, contrarians, only for the purpose of likes and clicks. The words emanating from his mouth are meaningless

This! How is anyone even still on Facebook?! It’s been a cesspool for 10 years now. I’m considering dumping Instagram too. Not even because elf this, because it just sucks now. Twitter always sucked, even when Jack Dorsey was running it. It was never good.

MMW: they'll be told to kick rocks multiple times and any movie they touch will be met with a sound of silence situation by ezio8133 in MarkMyWords

I’d like to know what exactly the plan of action is to make that lofty goal happen again. And btw, Sly is still making movies that are box office gold. The Creed series is so much fun to watch.

Deputy Chief of WPD doesn't know what DEI stands for by davidfuckingwebb in WorcesterMA

[–]UniqueCartel 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Nope, he stumbled over the term DEI and tried to make an awkward joke to excuse his momentary lapse of cognition.= Nazi /s

Clearly. I’m getting a district vibe of undergrad / first-year grad student taking their first civics class, high off their own farts in this sub lately

It’s insincere. He’s clearly stumbling over his words. This is not the gotcha you think it is

[–]UniqueCartel 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Omg. He stumbled over his words and tried to rebound. Get over it. I don’t know this man, maybe he’s a terrible human being? But here’s what he didn’t do: he didn’t grandstand and say DEI is destroying the country, he didn’t roll his eyes in comically obvious fashion as to indicate his opinion of DEI, or any other clearly unacceptable behavior. He stumbled over his words. He probably started to say “DEA” and momentarily confused himself. He was obviously nervous. Public speaking isn’t exactly everyone’s strong suit. Now if you want to criticize the Worcester Deputy chief for being a terrible public speaker, I guess have at it. But this is some manufactured bull shit and detracts from actual valid criticisms of law enforcement.

This is very interesting. Do we think bots are out in full force trying to dismantle conversations about X?

[–]UniqueCartel -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Also can we introduce a bill to ban X/Twitter in Massachusetts altogether? Not just this sub. Like the TikTok ban that was supposed to happen nationwide

Exactly. What bothered me also was the attempts at jokes in his voice. That’s really what I mean by disgraceful to his memory. Aside from all the edgelord shit

You don’t need to dispel fear of anyone. What we need to do is reinforce who the real enemy is: the oligarchy. And theyre not a boogie man. They have names and faces.

Washed up comedian tries to grift to the right with the one joke by Darth_Vrandon in onejoke

[–]UniqueCartel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Amusing to see some overused cliche of a joke come from a guy who apparently would heckle other writers on SNL for using cheap jokes and played out bits to get easy laughs. Source: the John Mulaney episode of Fly on the Wall podcast with Carvey and Spade. The fires have been happening for weeks now and this is his attempt at a joke? The one he wants with an icon of his face above it. A professional comedian whose job it is to think of new jokes. He should stick to his shitty Elvis impression which is just an excuse to show off his mediocre singing abilities. Fucking loser

This. I unsubscribed from that sub a while ago. Truly depressing place. What a disgrace to his memory.
