‘Property poetry’?
"Real estate is another way to say Australia."
"Kate Holden connects Turnbull’s persistence in illegally clearing vast tracts of koala habitat, and his murder of Turner, to British Enlightenment theories of property. The English philosopher John Locke, she observes, “placed emphasis on labour to morally justify the owning of property. The more work put into the land, the more settled a man was upon it. Holden traces associations between Locke’s ideas, the history of terra nullius and the “strange, morbid fixation in Australian myth of just how hard a person has to work on this land.”
"[b]y the time of Australia’s settling, the ineluctable mark of a British citizen was land ownership. It enfranchised him, gave him rights […] Land – elemental, foundational – was the desperately prized asset in a new colony. Without it, man was only an object."

«La philosophie derrière une FCC : le sol devrait être utilisé pour répondre aux besoins des habitants, et non pas comme un bien spéculatif. De manière concrète, ce principe se traduit par l’acquisition de terrains par la FCC avec l’aide financière de fondations et de différents ordres de gouvernement.»
«Au fil du temps, la FCC se constitue un stock de terrains sur lesquels elle permet gratuitement à des organismes de construire des logements abordables. Protégés par la fiducie, ces terrains seront à jamais à l’abri de la spéculation foncière.»
Gov Newsom extorting SF: destroy rent controlled buildings and replace them with luxury units, or the state will withhold funds for low income housing and transportation.
In absolutely #silly#speculation I will submit that any errant black holes are in fact spaceships that got so close to c that the effective mass energy caused it to become a black hole
I rarely speculate on tech things (because I'm no tech guru) but the reported news that Apple might be considering a cheap Macbook to compete with chromebooks only makes viable sense to me if these ran iOS rather than MacOS. Here endeth my speculation. #Apple#chromebook#MacBook#speculation
Today in Labor History August 14, 1850: A squatters' riot occurred in Sacramento, California. At the time, Sacramento was an unincorporated territory. Many people had moved to the region for the gold rush, resulting in land speculation and skyrocketing rents. The squatters vowed to defend their claims by force and created their own militia, consisting of dozens of men. The property owners called in the regional militia, with over 500 men. 2 squatters and 3 militiamen died in the battles, as well as 2 bystanders.
After all, people who can pocket in abdurd bonuses should also be able to shoulder the consequences of their actions: High Rewards should only be granted at High Risks and/or Hard if not Filthy Work!
I hope I'm wrong, but I'm going to say at least one FEMA Task Force activated for USAR, cadaver dogs, maybe DMAT for Maui -- because of potential for human remains in the ash, and also the difficulty of accounting for a large, non-resident tourist population (ie someone may not know they are missing). #disaster#speculation
