  1. Well then quit overthinking it…and you’re wrong. Trump tried to pull out of NATO and will most definitely try to halt funding for Ukraine. in what world is that not Putin’s choice for our president? This isn’t some enigma wrapped in a riddle.
  2. Had the blue fin tuna there last night along with the lobster dumplings and ceviche. Did not disappoint.
  3. Check out Criquet shirts. Might have something you like. Burnt Orange Shirt
  4. tldr: it's not that easy. I'll take a stab and Bluto can correct or jump in where he wants to. Without knowing the specifics of the purchase, it's hard to 'explain' the discrepancy between the appraised value and purchase price. With commercial properties, there are all sorts of intangibles that are not taxable that are typically included in a purchase. It's why Walgreens pays at least 2x for a property on a corner at a busy intersection. The property isn't worth that much, but it's a Walgreens business decision. Then you have competitors trying to buy up land parcels to keep competitors out and overpaying for the same (see Lowe's and Home Depot acquisitions or even CVS and Walgreens). Those overages are not taxable because the properties are simply not worth that much on the open market. Then you can get into other avenues like 1031 exchanges where companies or individuals simply need to park their money to avoid a tax consequence who simply do not care about overpaying. The list goes on and on. In other words, it's not that simple and we'd need to know specific facts about the purchase to try and understand why TCAD landed on that valuation. All of that being said, you're focused on the market value and not the equity value. If all other comparable properties indicate a value of $78mm, then it will be on the tax roll for $78mm. To get to 108mm, the District would need to raise the entire asset class by 38% to reflect a $108mm value. But does 1 sale make a market?
  5. I think their point/goal is utilizing state troopers (and maybe even complicit APD officers) to issue citations that our DA won’t prosecute. They’ll use these stops for arguments/evidence at the legislature to “reign in rogue DA’s” with bullshit bills….which they’re trying to push through. This isn’t about the tail light. Or the weed. It’s about the politics in my opinion. And you’re right. We don’t need nor want help with those particular issues.
  6. Let’s just keep playing Brooks and make a game of this.
  7. Ya. Here’s another dispensary/outfit in south Austin. https://texasoriginal.com/ It ain’t the cheapest, but it’s a step for the state. Hopefully once everyone applies and qualifies we’ll be on our way to rec. In any event, it’s cheaper than a flight to/from XYZ state and you know it’s not black market stuff.
  8. Yes. It’s legitimate. It’s a fucking 30 minute zoom call if you qualify. If you want to call that “hoops”, so be it. Link for one spot is here along with the app/process. If you qualify, you qualify. Ain’t that complicated. https://tx.goodblend.com/ It’s legal if you’re in the CURT system. You got an employer problem, then you got an employer problem. Can’t help ya there and it changes none of the above. dps link to CURT system: https://www.dps.texas.gov/section/compassionate-use-program/faq/compassionate-use-registry-texas-curt
  9. It is a statewide policy though. There is a statewide database called CURT. It’s a thing. If you’re prescribed any sort of pain meds or muscle relaxers, congrats… you qualify.
  10. Not entirely true. For instance, I’m medically approved in Texas for up to 600mg’s per month in the form of gummies and lozenges. They sell them in formats up to 20mg’s per gummy.
  11. Wtf are y’all even talking about? Lose Worthy and being okay with it? Get the fuck outta here with that shit.
