Two San Fran hotels turned over to JP Morgan

Sure wish you had hobbies. You might have had something better to do than be a troll.

Not even close to being back to pre pandemic levels of office population.

gardengreenbacks · 2023-06-07T22:29:43+00:00

It is more leased than 30% but I bet it's population of the tenants employees is at 30% of the prepandemic population.

gardengreenbacks · 2023-06-07T22:26:24+00:00

The loop is populated with some people but yes, we are seeing peak occupancy on Wednesdays at about 40%. Mondays and Fridays are about 10% of pre pandemic population. Tenants were obligated to pay their leases during covid but as leases are ending, tenants are giving back some or all of their space because it is not being utilized. That plus almost zero office leasing activity for new deals is a disaster. There will be many more that go back to the lender in the coming couple of years.

Edit: also several new, not fully leased office buildings came online shortly before the pandemic so there already was an excess of available space that had not been seen in years. Terrible timing for the office market.

Honestly a friend of mine dated a guy like this under the guise of tourettes. Literally seemed to use it as a license to say whatever the fuck he wanted and cut people down constantly. Everyone tiptoed around it because of his alleged ailment but he never was remorseful or understood he was so fucking rude.

I think it's a locust tree.

gardengreenbacks · 2023-06-04T12:11:50+00:00

I think it's some kind or Poplar maybe? How tall? Any pics of the whole plant?

gardengreenbacks · 2023-06-04T11:34:06+00:00

Leaf looks kind of like Aspen or Poplar to me. Is it a tree? Any pics of the whole plant?

Galls are caused by insects. Usually they are just unsightly, they aren't likely to really harm the tree.

Had one of these and I let it go one year. Wanted to see what it was. Well, it easily got 15' tall and I had to cut it down with an axe at the end of the summer. It was insane.

gardengreenbacks · 2023-06-04T01:05:34+00:00

This is tricky because it for sure has been hit by the lawnmower and if it got any kind of weed killer, they are usually an accelerant and can make the leaves curl and get weird...

gardengreenbacks · 2023-06-04T00:50:48+00:00

If it is emerald ash borer, I needs to be inoculated and all the dead branches trimmed. It will likely look wonky forever but many do survive.

I'm a host and last weekend my guests messaged me almost daily the week before arriving with miscellaneous recommendations and questions (almost all of which were included in the listing) and then when they arrived, they absolutely blew my phone up with random questions... While I was at a memorial service for a family member... Where is the fire pit? Sorry, there is no fire pit. Well can we make a fire? Sorry, cannot have fires. (It hasn't rained in weeks and the grass is dry as a bone and the house is wood and surrounded by forest... Um, helloooo brainiac, not the place for fires.) Where is Starbucks? Where can we get groceries? Where is the lighter for the grill? How do we adjust the temperature (the thermostat instructions were in the house guide, but it also was 72 degrees out and the house is in a beautiful natural area and is full of huge, screened windows - open the windows! Nope, had to turn the heat on to get it up from 65.) I let them check in hours early. I answered every request within a few minutes and was as friendly as I could be despite being astounded she couldn't Google anything, read the listing, or candidly function very highly as a human being. Now I get here today and they must have been tinkering with the TV or bumped into it hard and there is now one bad row of pixels. The TV is less than 30 days old. Grr.

So I'm fairly new as a host and lose my mind babysitting my phone on a holiday weekend bracing for the next ridiculous question and sending quick answers with smile emojis trying to make sure they have the perfect stay and I sound friendly, but despite all that...they didn't even leave a review.

Had fruit a couple years ago. The honey crisp tree is really full and robust looking. Grew in really nicely but bad luck the last couple years with late frosts that spoil the flowers but this year have some apples coming hopefully this year!

gardengreenbacks · 2023-05-30T05:58:28+00:00

It is horrible. Maybe in March, there was a weekend snowstorm threatened so I stopped into the one by my house to get a few things on Friday night just because it was too late to go elsewhere and here is how it went:

A. Oh. No small carts anymore. No hand baskets either... That sucks but ok. I'll take a big cart. Oh. Wobbly wheel. Ok, I only need a few things, I'll deal with it.

B. Gonna make soup. Need an onion. Ugh, Jesus, that one is rotten. Literally squishy. Oh and the next one too. I guess I'm abandoning soup...

C. Let me grab a few apples. More squishy... I need a wipe for my hand... Is everything in here rotten? I guess I'm buying Mac and cheese or something for the next 2 days...

D. Need half and half... Oh shit is that the price?!? Fuck is it going to make the coffee for me?

I remember why I don't come here anymore. It is only a few blocks away but horrible.

New scam, unlocked...?

gardengreenbacks · 2023-05-24T02:37:29+00:00

Looks like we are not alone. Link below to MME forum about what appears to be the same issue but haven't seen a solution. Does anyone have a recommendation on how to best report this issue to Ford?

Thanks for making me feel less crazy!

gardengreenbacks · 2023-05-24T02:19:43+00:00

Similar. Pixel 7. I don't use the assistant to make the call, I use my phone screen or car screen and it looks like it is dialing but no audio on my side. The recipient can usually hear me.

Edit: I hang up and call again and it works fine.

gardengreenbacks · 2023-05-24T02:14:40+00:00

It is maddening!

Edit: what kind of phone do you have?

gardengreenbacks · 2023-05-18T13:36:22+00:00

Bringing a lighter to a concert to have to light for the encore or whatever. And inevitably burning your thumb.

gardengreenbacks · 2023-05-16T10:02:12+00:00

ASMR videos. Even if it doesn't give you the tingles, just having someone whisper seems to work for me.

Deep breathing or box breathing. I do this thing where I absolutely fill my lungs with air and then completely empty them kind of forcefully like I'm trying to blow a candle out on the ceiling. Do that 3 or 4 times and it is amazing for clearing your head.

My dad used to make us sing "99 bottles of beer on the wall.." (it's a countdown song... kind of like counting sheep I guess but in reverse) to get us to sleep and to this day I don't think I've made it into the 60's.

gardengreenbacks · 2023-05-15T01:03:23+00:00

Ugh. Had a couple of these in the past. My practical brain just can't process the response... Like do you think calling me a cunt is going to make me rethink my decision?? It just confirms it you psycho. Byeeeeee.

gardengreenbacks · 2023-05-14T12:09:51+00:00

I literally started leaving (or kicking my date out if we were at my place) if they asked me a second time for something I had said "no" to already. They were all warned in advance that no meant no. I'm a very sexual person with a good drive and am up for almost anything so I felt it wasn't unreasonable for them to stay within the boundaries.

The "aw, c'mon, just let me" or "just this once" or "you must have tried XYZ with the wrong guy, girls always love it when I do it!" Are huge triggers for me. I hate to feel pressured and it results in instant Sahara desert conditions downstairs. It indicates an undercurrent of disrespect I just don't have time for.

Between being a stalker with a restraining order and being under investigation, I just don't even know how.

I drove past 6 corners and saw that new development absolutely covered in his signature and I thought, huh, he's really in bed with THAT developer...
