OK, I’m in!   You first.

I’m just entertained at how shrimp made its way onto the “no meat” list. Full disclosure: I did the exact same thing yesterday, listing shrimp among meatless dinner ideas I was proposing to my family, and was called out on it! LOL

If these mysterious reasons finally compel me to move and make this change, part of it will be ensuring I no longer financially (or otherwise) support that which I’m leaving behind. Isn’t it true US citizens still pay US taxes, even while living elsewhere, until they renounce their US citizenship? I read that on the…

A fellow fan of Metroid and C&C Red Alert?!? That moves the needle a little bit. Still can’t make up my mind about this fella, but this definitely helps.

ah, I guess I see where you’re coming from...  yeah, a single or group of faceless investors would seem to be the target of this article’s ire.   My brain still thinks of my own experience when I hear the term ‘landlord’, i.e. the dude the owns the building, whom I pay rent to, that comes and fixes stuff when it’s…

putting aside the considerable percentage of landlords that fill both roles, how do you think the property manager gets paid?

I absolutely understand the resistance behind getting steered away from ownership, on everything from movies to video games to cars... and I find solace in Buddhism.   Embrace the impermanence of everything and you will find peace!

which part of the law did he break?

I’d like to have a conversation with someone to help me square the statements “being a landlord isn’t a real job, they don’t do anything to earn their income” and “the landlord needs to come fix this thing that broke asap”.

let me fix that for you: EVERY dog requires proper training for both the dog AND the owner.

Y’all didn’t read carefully enough. Watering is recommended only for the newly planted / germinating lawn.

I disagree that lithium supply is the lynchpin you assume it to be. In the event lithium supply/cost starts putting a dent in things, there’s nothing stopping an EV company from switching tech instead of just throwing their hands up and declaring bankruptcy.

For those that are more than a little over the line, I’ll fold in their side view mirrors, esp the passenger side (of course, I need to in order to get past with them being over the line and all...) 

Agree - stop it with the videos. For me it’s not a choice, can’t play videos at work. You are preventing me from consuming your content and driving me elsewhere.

I recently switched back to wet shaving and absolutely love both the Leaf and Twig razors at leafshave dot com.   The Twig is a traditional safety razor, but they also have the Thorn which is a safety razor with an additional gap to give a more aggressive shave.  Sounds like an ad, I’m sorry, but I really enjoy using…

With the same information, I reach a different conclusion: he does ample research and homework to identify problems BEFORE investing too many resources, making it more likely that his projects will be successful (as they largely have been).

I agree with where this article is coming from, i.e. trying to recognize the privilege of white people that we’ve become blind to and find ways to correct for it... but this article isn’t doing statistics correctly.

I’m in this exact spot:  just bought a vehicle to replace my poor 190k beater that no longer runs reliably.  It has its good days and bad, and they are certainly numbered.  Answering honestly on the website about the car’s condition CarMax gave me a $2800 quote.  Waiting for a “good” day to drive it over there and see…

Tragic and unfortunate, but as a male in the same demographic I feel their death is less tragic than it could have been. T S Eliot said it best; “...Old men ought to be explorers...”

ugh, stop w/ the videos!  i’m at work, can’t watch them.
