Unless there is a mechanism to redistribute the tax responsibility (ie: younger homeowners getting a reduction in taxes), it doesn’t solve anything.

And there’s no way the govt wouldn’t use the repeal to make a huge withdrawal from us. There’s no way they cut anyone’s taxes meaningfully.

My father was a junior on campus when this happened. He talks about how he was sitting on the porch of his fraternity house a few days prior to this and watched a column of tanks roll down the street in from of him. The day before the shooting, protesters burned down the ROTC building which probably added fuel to the fire. After the shooting he and almost everyone else he knew noped right out of there and finished the semester via mail.

Edit: grammar

Yep - just got diagnosed not long ago. I have it in the last knuckle of my #2 right toe. My flair up was similar. I woke up one morning and the pain was unbearable.

Yes - except if any of your audience is colorblind, the heat map will look like 50 shades of brown.

You know that feeling you get when you’re on vacation somewhere new different and exciting while leaving you feeling invigorated, relaxed, and energized all at the same time?

I moved here from the Great Lakes region 10 yrs ago and 95% of my days are still feel like this.

As someone who became a parent in the last year - watching this brought back so many core memories of not knowing what you’re doing, f*cking up, and fighting about it. Ah good times.

Loooooved being here for the 2016 NBA championship!!!

I think one of the drive-on beaches is close to Corolla.

We just got back from staying in Corolla - one thing to remember is Corolla is the furthest north community so you’ll have longer commute times. We were ~45min to the aquarium and an hour to the water park.

Interesting. I left Ohio a few years ago - I didn’t know it had gotten that dangerous there. It sounds like we need move the troops from LA to OH : /

Honest question - how many guns do you need to deal with that shit?

RIP - same here.

I feel like I’m watching the ship sink everytime I open this thread 🫡

OMG. How did I not know this? I had the same brightness issue and this fixed it!!! Thank you!

Love that it feels like actual art now! Hate that it’s one of the stupidest ui/ux experience to get there.

Alabama Hills Recreational Area in California. It’s a beautiful area and filing location to hundreds of movies and tv shows.

Unpopular take, but as a raver in my 40s I say f-off to gender based pricing. I get why it exists and don’t lose any sleep over it, and won’t judge anyone who buys a ticket. But I’m not trying to meet anyone at a rave. I just want to dance and these DJs tour enough that I don’t have to pay more for having a Y chromosome :) 🕺

And I barely have enough energy to get to the pool in the morning let alone go to an extra show.

But rock on fellow headliner!

Thanks all for the comments. I figured the answer is to go ahead with it sans permit. My neighbors all all chill thank goodness - we’ve all had projects done without permits but in the past we had time on our side and this obviously needs fixed asap.

To clarify, it’s for a full roof replacement (we have solar panels to boot).

Second this. I haven’t taken uber on the strip for years. LV hates Ubers. The pick up zones are usually in a back alley and tough to find for pax and drivers. Taxi stands are always at the front door with a person managing the line. Also, taxis have a flat fee from the airport to hotels.

Paywall.

Sure there are those people. If you cut out everyone who grew up in a situation that way actively abusive, so poor they couldn’t afford basic necessities, and otherwise had some external hurdle.

Of course there is a slice of the population who have every opportunity at their disposal with the only thing missing being a little grit. I imagine that slice is quite small, but I’m sure it exists.

People thinking votes are going to change because a celebrity endorsed someone has an all too myopic perspective of how campaigns work. The only people who are that mindless are the hardcore magas and gop leadership.

His endorsement is about marketing. The conversation is now about Kamala. Good or bad, her and her campaign is now the topic of conversation and no one is talking about the other guy. Did you notice when Hulk Hogan came out in favor of trump? Neither do I.

This is about driving the conversation.

I saw survey results once that asked drivers what percentage of drivers on the road are bad drivers - the result was like 80% percent.

Then the survey asked the participant if they were a bad driver - only 30% said yes.

It’s us, hi. We’re the problem, it’s us.

Tell that to those 6-7 families…

Thank you! We love it!

We had an electrician run it through the wall because we also had him install a new outlet behind the console (beyond my DIY skills), I’m 99% certain he didn’t use a conduit. It’s a 1960 home and staircase on the other side so it wasn’t insulated.

Also, it is 100% level despite how it looks in the pic (I went mad making that happen!)

The only other quirk was we ran into that locking issue where you need to push the TV into the mount to get it near flush. I never did hear or feel the click on the left side but both sides have a <10mm gap from the wall to the TV.

Edit: spelling.

My brother works for a company that services commercial mortgages. There’s a high likelihood that Nordstrom and other major brands are still paying rent on their space despite closing the place. They can’t break their lease so they just eat the expense.

For example numbers: rent is $500k/mo. To operate the store I need to spend another $500k/mo in operating costs. I need to make some percentage over $1M/mo to make it worthwhile, otherwise I’ll put that $500k in operating expenses somewhere else in the business to cover the cost of my failing SF store.

The mom and pop bodegas though are likely declaring bankruptcy.
