@cheezman @BrettHamil Nice! This one's my fave. Fried dumplings (more pan-fried than deep fried), couple's beef, and eggplant with pork (forget what this one's called exactly.)

We say "the suburbs are a great place to raise kids," but I would much rather raise my kids in a city that is accessible, diverse, and lively, where they can independently access and contribute to the community. Here's a great thread explaining the benefits.

I'm a parent with 3 kids under 5. I want them to grow up in a neighborhood designed with them in mind. I recently learned of a concept called "the 15-minute city". A city where everyone should have access to essential urban services within a 15-minute walk or bike. /1

One of the greatest climate technologies that we have yet to truly deploy is "allowing everyone to live <3 miles from work, <1 mile from a big park, and <0.5 miles from the grocery store."

There's just an incredible amount of inertia inhibiting progress on the stone cold fact that we are not getting out of the climate crisis without significantly reducing vehicle miles traveled.

@KrangTNelson I believe #4 is a smelter which unlocks the smithing tech tree. You have to be level 25+ but the armor and weapon stat buffs are worth it.

"Adding housing supply helps make housing more affordable" is a true statement that has been supported time and time again by the research. And yet often people just say: "Nuh-uh! I don't believe it!" Who to believe? The homeowner's hunch or the Professor's life's work?

@ColinParent Similarly I am trying to get SFHs rebranded as "luxury monoplexes."

@QAGreenways "I just don't think we live in a 'not murdering cyclists' culture. Like that would be a pretty big adjustment for people."

Here's a great point: when you legalize apartment buildings instead of banning them on 75% of city land, the apartment buildings that get built end up being smaller, more stylized buildings with units that are larger, more diverse, and more affordable.
