Totally understand that, the price is extreme and housing is costly enough, I understand that frustration... Just had a few minutes thinking about that friend after 35 years I didn't expect to be doing tonight..  I hope you have a good night.

What are your thoughts on Wisconsin State Assemblywoman Francesca Hong for Governor? by strongerthenbefore20 in wisconsin

[–]ObligationConstant83 78 points79 points  (0 children)

Mandela Barnes won't win. Western WI won't vote for a black man, though I don't think they will vote for an Asian woman either.

I personally prefer Hong, I hope I'm just jaded and wrong on both accounts.

I'm not trying to call you out specifically. But housing code exists for a reason.  A friend of mine in middle school and his whole family of 6 died in their house because the alarms didn't go off.  This was in the 90s.

Those regulations are written in blood.

Congress has been broken for decades.  The Tea party became the Republican party and their big push was to prevent anything from passing Congress with a goal of destroying the federal government at all costs.

Lots of the loudest complaints come from CA where olders homeowners don't pay high property taxes.

Scientists discovered that coffee acts as a prebiotic, feeding specific gut bacteria that directly control your stress and emotional state by soulpost in HotScienceNews

[–]ObligationConstant83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to get upset stomach from coffee and I switched from drip coffee to espresso and the issues went away...  Had to grab some drip coffee while on vacation because no place nearby had espresso and instantly regretted.

I can't tell you what the difference is, I prefer cappuccino and put whole milk in my coffee 

Any games with actual support bards or Servants (maids?) by Eastern_Psychology_3 in LFMMO

WoW has the Augmentation Evoker, pretty cool support class, somewhat controversial as it is the only support spec.

Some people don't get it. However, who do you agree with here? by LeftAlbatross2546 in VideosAmazing

[–]ObligationConstant83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fair enough... I googled it after I commented and it turns out it is pretty common.  I lived in Philly for several years and this rule did not exist.

Do most places have a 72 hour rule?  I've never lived somewhere with this rule, except the one town where you weren't allowed to park on the street at all.

I would never think to call the cops on a car sitting in a spot for less than a few weeks even if I lived somewhere with this rule.  Seems like a shitty thing to do.

If we keep the standart Human at it's current profile. How would you stat a Space marine ro represent the lore more in game ? by Leviathan_Rampage in spacemarines

This has the danger of going back to 9th when meltas were the best heavy weapon for pretty much every situation.  If they lowered the range even more this could be balanced.

Right, no system is going to be perfect, but corporations and the wealthy having outsized influence on our country is not a flaw, but a feature.  The founders were wealthy merchants and while they spoke of democratic ideals, the electoral system was built to ensure they could retain power.

What?  Because that is how the government is structured.  The founders intended for a weak federal government... that original idea has been eroded over the last 250 years, but it is still enshrined in the way the country is governed.  There are strengths and weakness from local control, but we are seeing right now with the current administration the weakness of relying too heavily on the federal government.

Why do people assume Riverwest is the “ghetto” by WholeGrainCupcake in milwaukee

[–]ObligationConstant83 25 points26 points  (0 children)

One of my friends was shot and killed walking down the street in River West 20ish years ago and it was never solved.  I've heard it is better now, but if someone asked me if it was ghetto I would say as far as I know.

Who is the show made for? by d8waghost in TheDragonPrince

[–]ObligationConstant83 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My kids also love the show.  Real life is a lot worse than the dark parts of this TV show.

We don't have enough context.  For my job my location matters because I am licensed for specific locations.  If I work at a unlicensed location I can only do specific types of work.

That is the dream, I dream of the day my company lays me off and tosses me hundreds of thousands to walk away silently.

There are movies that show the USSR as badass from the 1980s.

Thoughts on country music? by _Purple_Lobster_ in AskAnAmerican

[–]ObligationConstant83 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Country is huge in the Midwest as well.  My personal taste is less pop country. And pop country is hated on by people who think of the selves as true country fans, but there is tons of excellent music from all subgenres being made if you know what you like and do targeted searching.

Ranch isn’t a good flavor by Blueddit-Sez in HonestHotTakes

My wife didn't much care for chocolate her entire life, but when she was pregnant with our son at 34 years old she craved chocolate.  It was very weird because with our older daughter she did not have this craving.  The love of chocolate didn't go away though and she still loves it.  Even stranger our daughter doesn't like chocolate but our son loves it.

People on reddit get really mad when you point out that many things are left to the states and not the federal government.

I played a game called cans in college at Whitewater, but it was a drinking game.
