The house across the street from me was listed and sold for $875k and it was 850 sq. feet, one bedroom one bathroom. I doubt there’s been a place listed in King County for under $200k in over a decade

They’ll never admit that. Misogynist fucks would happily take away our bodily autonomy and never allow a woman president, all the while insisting they don’t hate women.

As written in the satirical article I already linked to, “I hate the way she dealt with Donald Trump’s incessant attacks against her, for example. Why did Elizabeth Warren have to take that DNA test? Why couldn’t she have handled his abuse the exact right way? If I were being libeled by the President at his toxic mob…

I think this says it all (click the link):

Saying that critics find her off-putting; it’s rather like looking at an orange and having someone tell you it’s an apple.

I agree with this, though I think 2016 proved that debate performance doesn’t matter as much as we like to think it does. I absolutely believe Warren will crush Trump in a debate. But I also don’t think that that means she’s got a great chance of beating him in an election. This isn’t a knock on Warren by the way…

FFS, even Fox News has debunked the claim that claiming NA heritage helped her get into school/advance her career.

People want someone who can solve all the country’s problems but isn’t smarter than them.  Voters are a very fickle group.

It’s the fancy version of Trump’s “People are saying...”

Trump’s gonna pull that shit with anyone.

Competent women are offputting.

Hijacking the thread to say I just bought a (town)house, in the greater Seattle area, BY MY FUCKING SELF. No husband, not a dime from parents, and I am so fucking proud of myself I want to shout it from the rooftops.

“Critics find her...” is code for a rhetorical construct created by those who fear her very strength. Warren doesn’t lack charisma; to the contrary, she’s got it in abundance, and that’s precisely why this canard is repeated constantly - to convince people that they’re not seeing the very qualities they are seeing.

I MEAN CLEARLY SHE’S OFF-PUTTING SHE DOESN’T HAVE A PENIS AND IS SPEAKING IN PUBLIC.

“Have I lost some votes because of my decision to support Justice Kavanaugh? Yes, I have. And I’m sad about that because I explained in great depth my decision-making,” Collins said. But “there still is an appreciation in Maine for someone who looks at the facts of an issue, votes with integrity and independence.”

Susan Collins voted in a crybaby to the highest court in the land. We won’t forget that.

Yeah, your location is probably the single largest determining factor. A good percentage of my friends are smack in the center of the cohort that got most extremely fucked over by the housing bubble burst and/or job losses in the recession. Many were just graduating college or grad school when the economy tanked and…

I’m a grumpy Gen Xer in my early 40s. Treat me like an equal, and we’re all good. Treat me like a clueless teenager who knows nothing about life, and we’re not good at all.

It is expensive to live in or near most cities because that is where people want to live. Or to be more to the point that is where people can find work .

No one wants to be unpaid labor on an unsuccessful organic farm.
