    scans came back on my dad and it’s bad. When talking brain/cranial cancer the words “fingers” and “extensive” strike a sharp chord. Still sorting through it all, they are not certain if it’s the prostate coming back around or sarcoma, fortunately minimal pain. A body scan coming up to see true extent, talks of radiation and killing his testosterone in case it is prostate then immunotherapy. If it was chemo I’d wager he’d decline. hardest part is my mom went into it thinking it wasn’t going to be too bad of a report for some reason even though all the signs and history said otherwise, not sure if delusion or denial. It hit hard. Not much sleep happening tonight.

    If 5% is a go then no doubt. The word today is they’ll settle on 7.5% for homesteads only.

    House passed the senate bill on property tax with a major edit to include 5% caps for all property. They also granted Dan Patrick his 100k homestead exemption. Goes back to senate but Patrick has said caps are a no go. My guess is they allow the 5% cap on homesteads only along with the other rate compression/exemption bump for homesteads. brint Ryan and Bettencourt have way too much on the line to allow caps, Ryan has dropped 100MM or more on acquisitions of prop tax firms the last couple yrs that go poof overnight if commercial caps hit (trying to ipo). And Bettencourt has a fairly large prop tax firm that also goes poof.

    I tried the hand roll place a few yrs back and didn’t think it was anything special. Little Lilly is solid. shout out to the city on discussions of throwing tax abatements to auto haus to move to clear fork. talks of moving a damn car dealership to a 200k bldg in shops at clear fork.

    Guessing it was up to match the effective price oke paid, definitely a premium as of fridays trading price but it was also tied to share price of oke.

    Probably documented on here or elsewhere but pops is set for brain scan tomorrow. His ophthalmologist is quite concerned (eye bulge, dizzy, lethargic). Assuming the worst this would be the 5th bout of cancer in ~12 yrs… prostate then a 7 yr break before all hell broke loose with a sarcoma in shin, followed by chemo killing his kidneys off, only to have cancer return to his plura/chest cavity (was given last rights and hospice talk before keytruda saved him in less than 6 wks, been subject of white papers bc of it), then a year later he had to have a lime removed from his brain and been pretty steady/ok-ish for a few yrs. #run-on So here we are again, expecting more bad news. No cr but he’s kinda trumpian, how the hell is he gonna wriggle out of it this time.

    When some water head has thrown that around in regard to some common sense approach to a problem that doesn’t fit their political stance… why the fuck should I have to leave it, what’s wrong with wanting change and improvement and voting/working for that. Feels like Michael Bolton in office space, why the hell should I have to change my name.

    Finally getting a seemingly solid high end sushi joint in FW, Musume downtown. The original is in Dallas. FW really needs a good big night out sushi spot imo (is there one currently at all? Shinjuku maybe? Quince?)

    And yes, appeal every damn year even if your market val is far above assessed.* you never know what they might do or the following year they could just decide to uniformly roll the values or cut everybody 5%, you damn well want to be starting from that lower market value. *unless they have you wildly under valued missing a remodel or finished sq ftg.

    The board cannot raise your value, the 2019 legislature put that to rest (assuming the square footage/improvements are accurate on cad records) See SB2 from the 2019 lege session. Fighting the land vs improvement value splits and increases is a losing one generally. Only exceptions that come to mind are large acreage/excess land.
