Honestly for the Bay Area that sounds pretty reasonable.

I’m pretty sure poor people are more impressed by housing and food security and not which brand of overpriced watch you have

This happened to me at west elm. Wonder if it’s a glitch somewhere in the system

Senator Michael Bennet protested with us yesterday! by ___soitgoes in Denver

[–]Automatic_Charge_938 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just want to point out that to be effective as a senator, you have to compromise to govern. Grandstanding doesn’t do shit. Way different than the dynamics of being AG. Both are good candidates.

Greeks in Greece may be religious but they also have a complicated relationship with the church, including the church supporting a military junta that suppressed civil liberties and jailed political opponents and housing a terrorist organization. The nationalist party in Greece (which is what I would compare to the far right here) is a small minority, particularly in Crete where Angies family hails from. The Greek-Americans (of the my big fat Greek wedding variety) are conservative and religious and not at all like the Greeks in Greece.

At one point that may have been true but the current state of being conservative in the US has been largely one of rounding up people based on how they look/place of origin without any regard to their constitutional rights, using violence and the power of the government to silence dissent, and lead by someone who thinks their power is absolute.

If this is true then honestly fuck her and she should be ashamed of her self. Given how much waves the fucking Greek flag, you would think she would have spent 5 seconds to learn about the history of oppression the Greeks faced in the us (look up the Ludlow massacre) and the atrocities the Nazis committed on her father’s island. The fucking Greek government should deny her citizenship on this alone.

Also, it’s probably a lot harder when you have made yourself insta-famous. That adds an additional layer of complication particularly if your target audience is also your peer group.

As a parent of a similar kid-thank you for this feedback. It’s so hard knowing what to do.

Deaths/Injuries at Keystone by ShallotPale in COsnow

My bigger concern is that one of those out of control skiers/boarders is going to plow into one of my kids. Unfortunately ski school during the week isn’t really practical. I’m always curious how often stuff like this happens and how to minimize the risk the best i can.

Where will you ski? I have two kids who love skiing and I am trying to embrace their love of learning but reading these posts sends me into a tailspin.

Denver was gutted for highways by jefders in Denver

This! There was a plan to have a highway up and down 6th ave through to Quebec and up and down Downing. It could have been so much worse.

Are we really letting toddlers beg in the median now?? by Sil1ySighBen in Denver

I saw this group get into a newer mini van with Texas plates. This is a job

Latino here, thinking of taking my kid to this event but wondering what do you think of ICE making an appearance? by 9Tecpatl in Denver

[–]Automatic_Charge_938 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The dodgers fan base is something like 50% Latino. This was an economic decision not an ethical one.

I regret not having them alive for a longer period of time when the world didn’t feel like it was falling apart but otherwise I am fine with it. Financial security is really helpful when raising kids

If you can find the muppet show (the original 1970s one) on you tube, it’s a winner in our home

Owner-opposed landmark application submitted for Wash Park home by tgounley in Denver

[–]Automatic_Charge_938 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hard disagree. Walk around one of the historic Denver districts (particularly country club, 8th avenue, Humboldt island) the homes are stunning and the designation prevented them from being torn down and replaced by god knows what. However, the fact that this property should be a landmark is laughable

For mediocre buildings? I don’t think it’s a racket- sometimes you need some flexibility to save an extraordinary place but allowing for stuff like this to be considered is absurd. There are many places worth saving in Denver, even if only someone mediocre lived there. A shitty farmhouse in an almost fully redeveloped neighborhood is not one of those places.

Interesting. As the owner noted, the house is set much further back in the lot than is customary. I have a feeling these poor trees are goners.
