  1. Huh. I figured you for a 2 full stack kind of guy.
  2. Oh don’t get me wrong. I get it.
  3. You should also pull those weeds
  4. You guys playing football stadiums now?
  5. NGL, I’d probably eat that today
  6. Arch’s improvement has been great to see. I was pretty vocal as to my opinion that I didn’t think he could really play early on. I’m not smart enough to know if it’s been scheme or him or what. But plenty glad to have been wrong about my assessment. Now get the other shit fixed.
  7. This is one of my favorite things about living in AZ. Zero aggy.
  8. These sound fine to me.
  9. You motherfuckers need to watch red dawn
  10. Has Missouri ever won a football game of consequence?
  11. Ugly is the standard?
  12. Things you can count on in college football: 1) Venebles will do something stupid and 2) Missouri will fold under pressure. Movable object meets resistable force today. We’ll see who wants it least.
  13. I’d be interested in a drop comparisons between those two as well. I suspect Sayin’s receivers comprehend their job description (and position title) better.
  14. One team is wildly underperforming and the other is steamrolling up to expectations. Simple as that.
  15. Our president/cult leader (and others apparently) grabs little girls by the pussy. This isn’t new news. Not a god damn thing will happen other than the republicans will grandstand and “investigate” some Dems. Real fucking productive.
  16. He’s not afraid.
  17. Planet of the apes is really earth
  18. Rhys in Perry Mason was outstanding.

    NIMBYism

    SRO could absolutely be helpful for that.

    NIMBYism

    We can fight for it all we want. And I agree it’s a good premise: more people being able to afford a decent/appropriate place to live is better. Slorch is also right: ain’t no guarantees and you aren’t owed anything - you want it, go earn it. The problem is this: the only time a market-rate rental housing unit gets built in this country is when someone like me (a developer) and a capital partner (usually big institutional investor like a life co, PE group, REIT, Family office, etc) thinks they can make money at it. The idea that more units being delivered brings down rents is accurate but only to a point. Guess what deters investment in new units more than anything? Falling rents. Same thing with for sale housing. Except it’s usually a public homebuilder building. They probably don’t have project specific financing but they do answer to Wall Street, who will put the kibash on bustling new units when prices are falling. Oh, and guess what happens when house prices fall… they all fall. So we aren’t getting price relief without every US homeowner’s balance sheet taking the hit. I’ve only seen two times in my life when prices fell - the S&L wipeout and the GFC. I don’t think anyone wants those again, though they would help housing prices and rent.

    NIMBYism

    Interesting article. Wish I could be a fly on the wall listening to all those BH folks squirm. As someone who has been a residential housing developer for nearly 30 years, I constantly chuckle at all the hand wringing over the “housing affordability crisis”. We can talk about encouraging building, passing laws, relaxing red tape, blah blah fucking blah. But the reality is there is no solution for the “housing affability crisis” that is remotely palatable to the populace or politicians. You want affordable housing? Go list your house for 50% of what it’s worth. Don’t like that idea much huh? Didn’t think so.
  22. This. They should have just let these dipshits go forward with their plan. They would have lasted 10 minutes. Maybe. But honestly, what have they actually done that is illegal besides talk a bunch of shit and fuck around like morons?
  23. That’s cool but you used to post better pics
  24. This is truth. And in my house it extends to IDs, passports, credit cards, diamond jewelry, whatever the fuck. If it could be lost, it probably is.
