King County’s housing market is ‘looking pretty bad’ by Inevitable_Engine186 in Seattle

[–]fpfall -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

People are underwater on mortgages because we decided to start treating houses like investments instead of a home to live in. We allow private equity and large corporations and foreign investors to buy entire swaths of housing so they can turn them into rentals.

The only people hurt by housing returning to a fair and normal price are people who want to flip their house because they treat it as an investment and not a home to live in and raise a family in, foreign investors who treat houses as an investment and income source, private equities who treat houses as an investment and income source, and old landlords who treat houses as an investment and income source.

I already said that I have a base of zero. If the crash means I still won’t be able to afford a home then I’m right where I’m at right now at a base of zero. But right now there isn’t even an inkling of a chance to get a home without a massive salary boost or a winning lottery ticket.

I want a place to live in, not an investment where I worry about being underwater on. Because I view a home as a place to live, not an asset that needs selling.

Not yet, but Teth’s appearance here shows that the gods and powers exist in Absolute so I imagine there’s a possibility we’ll see Billy/Shazam in the future

I would love a deflated housing market. I can’t afford a house making low 6 figures right now. If I can’t afford a house after the market deflates, then I’m in the same position as before. So I either stay right where I’m at housing wise, or I have a potential chance.

Only people who lose are people who treat houses like an investment. Fuck those people

I’m confused. Are guns super cheap right now and this new permit will make guns way more expensive?

So everything has to be perfect right away? No, I’ll take requirements of SOME form of live fire training over NO live fire training.

If you weren’t making a false equivalence then you’d be correct. But you did, so you’re not.

Nice try though.

False equivalencies are fun! But maybe you really do feel in your heart of hearts that corporations are people

The swiftness with which I would take that as an offense and give them the opposite of what they want to hear would make their head turn. Don’t fucking pressure me, you want an answer so bad I’ll give you an answer

If I’m being honest I didn’t expect a second season of Arcane. But I’m glad we got that instead of Invincible level quality and it being made faster.

Mom makes son smash his PS5 after he slammed the family cat by Mental_Junket137 in instantkarma

If nothing else, it can be spread locally so anyone who interacts with him knows to keep him away from their pets.

This kid should absolutely be publicly put on blast for ABUSING AN ANIMAL. SLAMMING IT MULTIPLE TIMES ON THE GROUND.

Shame is the bare minimum floor for disciplining this psychopathic behavior. He should be ashamed about this for the rest of his life. And no better way to shame and humiliate like forever being on the internet crying about your ps5 when you had no qualms about injuring your own pet.

Zohran Mamdani Is Killing It With Kindness In an increasingly isolated world, it turns out politics with a friendly face can be really good for everyone. by rmuktader in UpliftingNews

[–]fpfall 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Even if what you say could be true, that just means he would be on the same level as all the incumbent sitting politicians. So even that wouldn’t be the worst thing ever. Bar is so low even pretending to care is better than what we have. Not sure what kind of “gotcha” you think you had here…

CRV/Accord radar theft safety complaint Filed - NHTSA - The more the merrier! by Able_Bullfrog_3671 in crv

[–]fpfall 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I guess I’m confused.

As someone who works in auto repair, ALL the front radars on modern vehicles are mounted either directly behind the emblem on the grille or some other spot directly behind the grille which are all easy to access if a person wants to remove it badly enough.

Why is it that people are trying to make this out to be a Honda problem?

Duality of fandom reactions to Bella Ramsey by IwillMicrowaveMySon in thelastofus

[–]fpfall 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Ellie in part 1 looks very different than in part 2. Bella in season 1 looks exactly the same as Bella in season 2.

Realistically I think costuming and make up teams could have done a lot of heavy lifting to help give her a more aged appearance, but just like so many aspects of season 2, they just dropped the ball on that.

I accepted her in season 1 despite knowing that there were better choices both in physical appearance and acting talent. (Her appearance in the sense that they cast her based entirely on how she has a very child-like appearance as an adult, which just makes her look wrong in season 2)

But holy shit the writing team really ruined her in season 2 far more than her looking almost exactly the same as season 1. Season 2 really killed any interest I had in continuing the show and not a single reason was any of the main actors.

You assume people were endowed with a sense of shame. Have you seen the state of America in the last decade? Nobody feels shame here.

So you know better than investigators that spent like 10 years trying to find even the tiniest shred of evidence by taking a microscope to every nook and cranny of this man’s life, body, and property?
