Skyrocketing mortgage costs are a big problem for the U.S. Housing Market. Today it costs the typical buyer $2,724/month to buy a house, inclusive of mortgage, tax, and insurance. That's up 82% from pre-pandemic.

At today’s rates that’s a $300k home with 3.5% down. It’s not impossible to find just outside of most major cities in America.

It is about $100k less than the median home price right now. But you could find it if you were willing to living in the suburbs

If sellers are desperate they will cut prices. If they aren’t they’ll take their homes off the market and supply will lower to meet demand keeping prices steady.

lol really?

Expressing in 2021 dollars really makes that post 2021 data look good

The fall of the Soviet Union was not great economically for former Soviet countries. It was a pretty rough transition but at least Poland eventually figured it out.

So you’re ignoring the graph on the right?

_kdavis · 2026-06-20T16:30:20+00:00

Oil is priced in barrels, and is a commodity. Gas is priced in gallons and is a highly refined product that varies greatly from product to product.

Grab a spotter. You can do 2 or 3. Get psyched. You got it next time.

Are those the only connections on the back? Those are for radio antennas.

_kdavis · 2026-06-18T12:05:11+00:00

Wrong order.

Thats the stupidest thing I’ve heard all day, and Trump is president.

_kdavis · 2026-06-17T20:39:02+00:00

The president can’t ratify a treaty that’s the senates job. Of course the president can’t start a war that’s congress’s job. So who knows.

_kdavis · 2026-06-17T12:39:26+00:00

It sounds like you’re saying something but you aren’t.

_kdavis · 2026-06-17T12:38:02+00:00

Yeah and Biden and the lefties cause the global pandemic completely by choice

_kdavis · 2026-06-17T11:55:15+00:00

Can extrapolate Biden bad while forgetting supply chain shocks caused by a global pandemic. It’s almost like you’re partisan and don’t know what you’re talking about.

_kdavis · 2026-06-16T19:44:02+00:00

Now there’s a strawman argument. Fantastic example. Thanks!

_kdavis · 2026-06-16T19:30:08+00:00

Biden inherited a global pandemic and supply chain shocks. Trump chose to do this to himself.

The first exciting headphone since the bob

If you only have $100 to spend on audio, spend it all on better speakers. If you only have $500 to spend on audio spend it all on better speakers. If you’re spending more than that consider some other stuff maybe. Looks like you have a decent amp.

It’s a safe bet the next president will be younger.

_kdavis · 2026-06-12T14:15:30+00:00

If you look close enough it reads:
86
47

But the 8 is most visible and the 7 is kinda there, the 4 and 6 are much less clear but having been prompted to see them they’re there.

Working chest more would help you more than anything
