He got out-worded, but its a nitpick by Castro IMO. Biden said you’d automatically buy-in. As in no action would be needed. Castro said that Biden was requiring people to opt-in (generally not considered to be automatic) and then IMMEDIATLY said buy-in as a lure so that biden saying automatically buy in would be…

Can we use a different word in place of ‘retarded’ next time?

Having never been touched like that by a woman before, it was all he could do to prematurely eject her.

I was in long a long-distance relationship with a guy living in Manchester, UK (I lived in NYC) for two years. I had hoped to spend the rest of my life with this guy. I had even chosen the house he bought (our house, as he called it)
in Manchester, and the only decorations in it were the ones I had chosen.

Oof. The gay community where I live in fairly small, and this almost exact thing happened to a good friend of mine recently (ex was cheating on him and now flaunts the 10 year younger boyfriend). We’ve made a point of going out with the friend, and if we happen to end up at the same place as the ex we all glare at him…

My response is going to be a little different. I have lived in the same area for many years and am unable to move elsewhere. I got married here, raised my children here, got divorced here, and all of my children have moved away from here and no longer speak to me.

There was a diner in the last town I lived in that I loved so much I wouldn’t take men there for exactly this reason. I was once harassed by a drunk there. I just moved and kept eating (while the staff called the cops, who actually arrested him for trespassing.) They found two dead bodies there and I kept going. I…

I greatly envy those who can move away after a breakup. My ex and I are gay men in a big Midwestern city and I constantly run into him and his new flame (who is 12 years my junior and it will never not hurt). My options are to suck it up or become a recluse.

Just a horrible, senseless tragedy.

Sam Mendes still does a lot of work. You don’t get anywhere in Hollywood bashing powerful people’s old work, even if it has gone down in public esteem.

Well, of course the MMA guy was cagey.

And real estate is approaching levels that mimic that of 2006 in many areas of the country. I have over 100k in equity currently in a home I bought in 2012. That’s kind of insane. 

I’m amazed there are so many conveniently available rental places in Monterey.

What’s the chances she lied about her age also?

This is a stupid measure and the only thing that gives it any chance is the ultra-low turnout. Still, the Mayor and City Council need to get their shit together and update the General Plan, and stop working via an ad hoc process that looks suspiciously like a scheme to extract campaign contributions from developers.…

Luxury apartments can still help to keep overall prices down, by siphoning off demand that might have led rich people to gentrify poorer areas. That’s essentially what’s happening in New York City, where a massive expansion in mostly luxury units has finally helped rental prices flat-line or decline.

It’s a touch of both. The existing single-home dwellers get to “lock in” their neighborhoods with the measure, and conveniently it also inflates the value of their primary asset (their homes).

A fun LA anecdote: two retired LAUSD teachers, who live by me and whose bungalow is valued at more than $2 million, spend their days putting up anti-development signs in the surrounding neighborhoods. They purchased their house on a two-teacher salary in the late seventies. My young family of 4 are squeezed into an…

Regarding your last sentence, Donald Trump is now the only thing standing between Mike Pence and a Republican majority. We are now relying on Donald fucking Trump to moderate these people.
