Hmmm. What do you think, people?
Jane-washing. Startup Urbanism is gentrification by another name.

Jacobs feared that this chaotic but human landscape was under threat, lost forever in the rationalizing schemes of planners who desired order rather than life.

There is no place where one is allowed to be unproductive
“Coworking” is, therefore, one of those words that needs to be approached with caution. Dismantling the walls of the traditional office space can be liberating and highly creative, but it can also deliver insecurity, division, and constant work. As community and business collapse into each other, does this leave any space in the city outside the marketplace? Is there anything except work, customer service, and the rules of 24/7 Capitalism?

Hassan Massoumi exclaimed after he lost his store when the lease was not renewed, "My wife and I came here when no one else would. For 10 years, we worked seven days a week -- not one day of vacation. Then one day, Tony Hsieh's people tell us to get out of there."
And for those that remain: Does everyone have to buy their daily food from the Downtown 3rd Farmers' Market? Much has been made of the private schools and nurseries such as the 9th that use revolutionary educational techniques, but these cost up to $12,000 a year. It is telling that little is said about the parents who can’t afford these rates. Despite the marketing, this is the opposite of a diverse neighborhood in the making. Like so many examples of gentrification, these are the subtle mechanisms that sort out the unwanted from the desirable.

he says - abide by our laws - asylum... then when she says she did and got rejected - he says - so you decided to break the law..
so like telling snowden/swartz - they needed to go through the right channels..

what if there are no right channels.. what if passage is obstructed by man made constructs with no real reason..

We'd achieve more if we chased the dream instead of the competition.

We're not going to get out of this mess until we stop letting people's emotional stories hijack our attention. You can't see or smell CO2.

Do we really need experts to tell us that Millennials like authenticity? Does that mean there are generations that prefer inauthenticity?
