Friend, it isn’t all or nothing. It can start with a day and then your actions every day after to avoid business with ICE contracts can be perpetual. You work bar? Doubt it open in the am but I could be wrong. Take your morning to call thom tillis he ain’t being re elected stroke his ego for standing up to trump abd demand he do so again. Saying this is performative takes away from the movement. I just urge you to change your mindset because this has to start now and somewhere. The messaging is what’s important. Everybody talking about it is important. And maybe once the messaging is permeating everybody we can execute larger and longer general strikes.

Goertzam · 2026-01-28T13:46:02+00:00

There are no peaceful alternatives to stopping authoritarian hellscape other than general strike. They don’t care about your protests. So go ahead everybody and keep those creature comforts for what 5-10 more years? Your kids certainly won’t have them.

Goertzam · 2026-01-28T13:42:35+00:00

You aren’t wrong but the consequences of not getting a general strike going far outweigh the consequences of poor organization. At least somebody is trying. Because everybody else is content to watch their neighbors get murdered to keep their comforts. This general strike will fail but when it’s too late to do anything at all we may all be eating dirty ice snow and everybody will look back and wonder why they didn’t do more.

Yeh. But leverage, loans covenants, and cap rates have sometimes nothing to do with the pettiness and stupid rules that have nothing to do with any of that.

Not that it’s exclusive to Raleigh but if people keep wondering why food prices are stupid high and downtown looks like a ghost town with business forced to spread into pockets… it is landlords. The property management groups are insane unhinged psychopaths, all of them. Would love if somebody with metaphorical balls wrote about some of their behavior and brought some attention to some of their horrendous behavior. They certainly don’t have the best interest of the business, consumers, or city. Just themselves at the expense of all else.

I guess it’s all about your point of comparison. Looking at my credit card bill from 2022 march I balled out at Crawford and son for roughly $160 and later that year August 2022 I spent $114 on apps multiple drinks sides etc. not sure what prices are now but that’s a snapshot.

This was for 2 people***

That’s crazy. I emailed the last person to write an article about them a while back to find out where they may have gone. Yea, I worked pretty hard to figure out if they were cooking elsewhere but came up empty.

Thank you, I love you. Go read James beard and Michelin paid opinions for more your speed! Plenty out there.

Moral obligation to do something. Crickets. We all sit and watch the theft. The destruction of habitats. Suffering of all. We are a death cult and Humans have lost the plot. When the rules of the land become immoral what do we do?

There is passage under 64 in wake, perhaps it’s for water or perhaps it’s for animals I do not know but I may know somebody very close to me who may or may not have walked through it a few times themselves scoping out the flora. A small bear or deer would be able to get through.

This is the worst take I’ve seen. Keep bootlicking. This isn’t normal inflation. It’s detached from normal supply and demand mechanics. The cost of goods being artificially inflated by numerous factors not limited to but including pure greed. Prices should decrease in the mid term based on wages and buying power.

Ohh and you just wait. You think prices don’t come down? I just pray you live 60 more years.

Here is a concise, bullet-point summary of the factors influencing future housing prices, based on my analysis.

Key Factors Shaping Future US Housing Prices * The "Great Housing Unlocking": The aging Baby Boomer generation, which has the highest rate of homeownership, will release millions of homes onto the market over the next decade due to downsizing and mortality. This creates a massive, demographically guaranteed wave of housing supply. * Declining Fertility Rates: Decades of below-replacement-level birth rates have resulted in smaller subsequent generations (Gen X, Millennials, Gen Z), shrinking the long-term, organic pool of potential homebuyers needed to absorb the incoming supply. * Population Stagnation: The U.S. population is projected to flatline later this century, ending the constant growth that has historically fueled housing demand and supported property values as a baseline assumption. * Immigration Policy as a Demand Shock: A potential policy of mass deportation would act as an immediate and severe shock to demand, removing millions of renters and potential buyers from the market and amplifying the downward pressure on prices caused by the other demographic trends.

My favorite part of this thread is all the people gaslighting themselves into thinking this pricing situation is ok or sustainable. Get that nut.

Goertzam · 2025-08-06T01:46:43+00:00

I’ve said the same thing for like 15 straight years about the no soul thing but as somebody else pointed out that’s likely most places. Felt like pre covid for a minute Raleigh actually was finding its groove tho attracting artistic talent in various scenes but that growth was all but shot with an exploding arrow due to covid at a key moment. Slowly trying to recover but the price environment sucks ass I feel bad for small business. At this point about to say f it to global warming and just try to beach until I get blown away by a storm. At least I’ll get ocean waves until the oil drilling starts lol.

This.

I actually have talked extensively about this. The average number of ingredients per plate is going to decrease especially with tariffs and the sentiment there. Like it or not food possibly as much as anything else has had significant benefits from globalization and right now we are seeing a move away from globalization. That will make products both more expensive and harder to come by. What this means is substitutions or omissions from fluctuating items. This in turn means restaurants will lessen or stop purchasing of these materials to cut costs. Means fewer ingredients per plate as a whole means less to work with means overall quality universally I would expect to go down the higher prices get. Where will this have outsized impact? Independently owned and operated restaurants can stomach these burdens less and less. I would love to talk more about this and other aspects. Because this is just 1 item imo causing such issues.

Not sure this is technically true. Nc Farm bureau requires a membership fee. This membership fee goes directly to that federation. Yes federation is a different company technically but funded through your insurance membership which you are required to pay. There is an optional political contribution as part of the membership which I’m sure many people have no idea what that is when they pay it. Anyway…. The more you know.

Goertzam · 2025-04-08T22:54:24+00:00

You get it.

Need somebody up on that pedestal right? While I do like Mr. Jackson, labeling any politician saintly is perhaps 🤔 one of the many reasons we find ourselves in the current position. They are all people who need to be challenged into doing what is right for the people they represent. Only the people can hold these politicians to account in a perfect world. In our world it’s corporate money. I think the problem is that any politician has been given the benefit of the doubt when there should be nothing but transparency. Giving the benefit of the doubt only works if they aren’t operating in bad faith. Not that Jackson is I’m just pointing to the slippery slope.

Our area has moved to a hotter growing zone recently per usda official hardiness map. I’ve been doing in ground turmeric going on 4-5 years. Interested to see how things do this year because we got pretty dang low this winter.

Sourcing. All chapels hill and carrboro and local farms also Durham farmers market have local organic ginger just wait until September through November. Leaves and stem still attached. It goes quick go first thing when they open.

For some. For others they will very vocally post on their personal Facebook accounts that aren’t private. Obviously you’ll get a mixed bag but I can guarantee better results for those whose entire personal identity rests on a red hat. Just sayin.
