yeah, although I think they often overstate how much water is wasted by this, I still don’t understand why people would leave the water running when they aren’t using it.

Running water whilst brushing your teeth won’t help you with that. Just run the water for a few seconds or so while/after you spit - just to flush stuff past the P-trap, as you don’t want it to settle there and cause a clog.

some shower heads have a little switch on them so you can shut off water at the head. It’s probably not good to leave it off (and the water on) for more than a few minutes or so, but it’s pretty much made for this “navy shower” sorta thing.

reminds me of hearing about some of those right-wing pundit-types (limbaugh? beck? hannity? fuck if i know, I’m not about to go delving into that cesspool to try and figure out which piece of shit was acting up that specific time...) talked about intentionally leaving the lights on and running airconditioning with the…

As long as you aren’t heating it, there isn’t much to leach into the water from a plastic bottle.

yeah, I’m unaffiliated, so if Weld actually tries to run, I’ll probably be voting for him in the primaries.

just google “FBI ISIS sting” pretty much all the results are the FBI finding some poor gullible soul, and then talking them into doing something illegal, and then arresting them, or even arresting them for possession of illegal items that they just provided the person with.  Granted, these people seem to have some…

what do you call ten people sitting at a table and talking with a nazi?

yeah, it’s one thing to disagree with how much to tax, how to spend taxes, or how to zone some property.

In theory, it shouldn’t matter. Assuming there is a limited demand for luxury apartments vs. normal apartments, eventually things should be balance out. Developers will notice that it’s becoming hard to rent out the luxury apartments and that the markets might be saturated, and will lower rents.

Something has to be done about low-income housing in urban areas. Just building more apartment buildings isn’t going to help, since most of the new ones are “luxury” apartments.
