This is a lot less fun in retrospect, after the fire has already consumed the building and dozens have died: http://www.oaklandghostship.com/ Those are some photos of the warehouse / art studio space / illegal artist living space / illegal rave venue that burned down in Oakland. One thing the news reports mentioned in particular was that the stairs to the second floor were made from pallets. The city had investigated it for blight and illegal use as a residence before but inspectors couldn't get inside for some reason. Goes to show that fire marshals aren't just there to ruin everyone's fun.

Yes, California, a state known for its right-leaning politics and vigorous climate change denialism. (I live in NC, maybe just a bit bitter).

It's probably the 'ol ptomaine theory of food poisoning cropping up. People used to think it was chemicals formed during decomposition that caused it rather than pathogens.

I like my neighborhood. There are three or four waves of development represented and no HOA, so you see lots of different layouts and later customizations as you walk through the area, ranging from classic 70s stuff to closely packed late 2000s suburban jungle cookie cutters. I wouldn't want to live in one of those but walking through that part of the neighborhood is a cool experience. It is like an alien landscape compared to the older more comfortable suburbs which have things like space between houses and yards and trees and stuff.

The common phrases like "This lot shall be owned and occupied by people of the Caucasian race only" in the original deeds, alongside the other stuff, is pretty suggestive of where HOAs came from.
