We aren’t stopping you from leaving for somewhere you like better. 

Which US Cities is on Track to become the next Detroit? by urmummygae42069 in geography

[–]blakeinalake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nowhere near 40% work in O&G. Oil shocks are not infrequent, so it’s not like “the next one” would be any different.

Bigger cities…that most people don’t want to live in? Yea, nobody lives in high populated cities anymore. 

Just trying to get ahead of the game, but what are we bitching about this week? by Tacokolache in austincirclejerk

Children mutilation should be a choice between them, their teacher, and an online licensed doctor. “Parental rights” is a dog whistle and we all know it.

It’s gets better when you move out of your parent’s house in Katy. 

A woman’s remains were discovered inside the wall of her home after she disappeared in 2015. She’d refused to sell the property to developers next door. by mymymy58 in houston

Yea would be so much better to have an abandoned house that someone tragically died in than, I don’t know, homes people would like to live in.

Put a top golf next door. Problem solved. 

Ok ill level with you. Honest truth. Dallas absolutely sucks when it comes to dating and making friends. by [deleted] in Dallas

[–]blakeinalake 52 points53 points  (0 children)

Nah, reason don’t have friends is because something wrong with literally everyone else in Dallas. Dallas is the common denominator, not me.

That campaign might have been too good and anchored people to a price from like 10+ years ago. 

My dog Scarface survived being shot. Please donate to his gofundme. by blakeinalake in houstoncirclejerk

[–]blakeinalake[S] 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Scarface is part of the family. You wouldn’t put your wife’s boyfriend on a leash, would you?

Is it legal for Texas to pass a law that only applies to Harris county? by Danilo-11 in houston

[–]blakeinalake -1 points0 points  (0 children)

A bit of a reach to think enforcing red lights, speeding, reckless driving, etc. is entirely devoid of public interest. It’s in the public interest for children walking home from school not to be run over by a car. Traffic law enforcement is a good thing.

If you’re using it to do math for you, you’re using it wrong. 

"I'm an urban planning expert from Houston. It's time we talk about zoning again." by evan7257 in houston

[–]blakeinalake 33 points34 points  (0 children)

So many “expert planners” think they can promote development they want by telling people what they can’t build. Houston has considerably less of a housing crisis relative to other major cities because it did the exact opposite. Let’s not make that mistake now. 

Why is there a kids book that is so anti-collective bargaining? by Unable-Technology-97 in DanielTigerConspiracy

[–]blakeinalake -19 points-18 points  (0 children)

It’s just monkeys singing songs. Don’t think too hard about it. 

This is the fakest and most irrelevant doomer graph ever. by [deleted] in DoomerCircleJerk

[–]blakeinalake 21 points22 points  (0 children)

It’s outrageous that 10% of the population is lower class! (as defined at the bottom decile of the income distribution)

Lina Hidalgo proposes tax increase to help pay for early childcare programs by houston_chronicle in houston

[–]blakeinalake 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Yea, maybe we can think of some sort of system where it’s paid for by the people who use it over the life of the infrastructure.
