  1. I would guess a big part of it is that there is a large population of high income singles and DINKs or, if they have a kid, it's only one. The US has a declining birthrate and that's going to be led by your urban cities since high income, educated people are more likely to skip kids altogether.
  2. I went ahead and set a 5% trailing stop loss this morning on my GLD holdings. If it drops that additional amount, I'll lock in a 48% profit. Not too shabby.
  3. Most of the state isn't even aware that TEA has taken over HISD. Most of those that are aware, don't give a shit. TEA could shutter AISD, imprison the teachers, and sell the kids into slavery and it would make the news for a week before no one gives a shit about that either. Recapture is never getting fixed.
  4. I wasn’t able to watch the game this week so I only followed the thread. Last night, I watched the ESPN key plays recap on YouTube and I gotta say we looked really good. It makes me think most poll voters only watch the game recaps and rank teams based on the 10-15 minute video.
  5. Some friends moved to Colorado last summer so their kids enrolled in 4th and 7th grade there this fall. They went to Gullett and Lamar, so AISD “A” schools. Both were great students. Their new Colorado schools tested them to see where they were at academically. They don’t trust scores from Texas. Both were significantly behind for their grade level. Luckily, they both got back on grade level at the end of the first 9 weeks. Their parents were definitely shocked since the older kid never made a grade below 98 and was in all advanced classes and the younger one never struggled for one minute in school. The younger kid was so far behind, the school tested her for learning disabilities just to be safe. Now, Mrs. Brown is freaking out that we’re ruining our kid by leaving her at Lamar and not just taking her out of state.
  6. That sounds like some woke math.
  7. Ewers was ass. Nothing changes that. However, Manning is a herpes crusted ass spewing diarrhea all over the field at a cost of $4M+ per year.
  8. If Arch isn’t gone, all our backups are gone.
  9. The 100-200 students that sign up for gender studies at each university are god fearing red blooded conservatives that can have their entire worldview destroyed in less than 3 hours a week?
  10. Downy Chick? Corky approved.
  11. You know the answer to that.
  12. I've been using AI to write Python code for about two years. Claude is the best one for it. I shouldn't even be writing code in my role but I can get it done in minutes using AI instead of handing it off to staff to spend hours doing it. It would take me longer to type an email with the business requirements than to just iterate through it with AI until it work perfectly.
  13. Yeah, I'm going to have to resod in the spring. I've put off getting a sprinkler system since it's never been much of an issue but this drought has killed off my Bermuda turf. It's not even brown, it's blown away and it's just a dirt field.
  14. I'll bet Father Brian was happy to see you. At least he was into chicks. That progress for the Catholic Church.
