Speaking of YIMBYs
\n\nJust out on the road, saw three pedal bikers, young, stylish in the gay thin way, one had a sign on his back\n
\nthis road
needs a
DIET
\nobvs they came from Foster, which for a while there\u2019s been stenciled anti- signs up in the businesses, which are basically all taking advantage of the cheap irregular lots (Foster cuts diagonal to the grid) to serve builders of LMC housing - tile, fixtures, furniture, lumber.
\nnot gonna be LMC housing any more, that\u2019s the point
\n\nthe more important thing is it\u2019s a commuter route from Clackamas but that can\u2019t last as things build so may as well pull the band-aid and shove them to 205->82 or the MAX already\n
\n\ninteresting it\u2019s an obv. outlet for gentrification but unlike Division or Glisan the lots are triangular so that might slow things, in clusters you\u2019re already seeing the twee stores that obviously couldn\u2019t make rent unless developers were subsidizing them as plants
\nbut there\u2019s that cluster of sex businesses at the mouth, the strip club, modeling studio(/brothel), adult store(/scum brothel), they just put in the \u201csex-positive coffeeshop\u201d and I bet they\u2019re gonna make the developers buy them out DEAR
\nBut oh, the bike YIMBYs. Is that your radical ~activism~? That was what Matt Yglesias made his name on, repeating the Harvard conventional wisdom of 2003, you fucks, somehow you\u2019re worse than Shepard Fairey, worse than Banksy, than fucking Adbusters, fuck you you millennials you found an axis to be worse on than the Boomers, fuck you fuck you fuck you
\nyou killed my heimat you fucks
