LA has two parallel sets of very complex and expensive infrastructure, one is designed to bring fresh water over long distances at great effort and expense, the other designs to flush fresh water into the ocean as fast as possible.

He's not wrong to assume this. McCrery is a better architect than I thought would be attached to the project

Not sure what point WS thinks he’s making but I think it would be good if there were more affordable housing in LA so more people could afford to live here :)

Calling, there is no stone
In earth’s thickness to make a home
That you can build with & remain alone.

A dead sperm whale has washed up on Nantucket for the first time in decades. It’s too big to move — at least until officials figure out a plan.
Dead Sperm Whale on Nantucket Is Too Big to Move, for Now
A local nonprofit said the 52-ton mammal is “far too big, awkward and heavy to remove.” A town official later said it could be dragged out to sea by Thanksgiving.

I would run out fingers counting major housing histories that are like “well that’s Boston, Baltimore, & St Louis, case closed!” because they couldn’t make sense of the sun belt
Of course it happened on the west coast so it didn’t really happen
