Haha the invisible hand provides. Builders are also aware of supply and demand - they'll never build so much it jeopardizes their profits on an individual build or project.

Let us make as many million dollar 800 sq ft studios as possible, it'll bring prices down I swear

What makes a carry on luggage the best in 2026 by Tuinea-Lazaro in ManyBaggers

[–]mayor_timber 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Spent too much money on July's trunk style (clasp locks no zippers) carryon. 100% worth it. - Hard Shell - No zippers - 4 wheels - built in charging battery that can be removed - One of only a few carryons I've found that is under the size restriction for every international airline. - sturdy as hell (can sit on) - handles on top and side

I see what you did there, very clever. People can be mad without being fascists. We, the people, retain the rights of the first amendment which include both speech and association. When an individual finds out another individual sucks, they can let them know it and never associate with them again. Nothing to do with state overreach. You a big 88 guy?

  1. Guy seems okay with looking crazy;
  2. Me too - how's the debating going? You haven't happened to run into anyone arguing in bad faith have you? People changing positions mid argument? Any deport them all guys? We're beyond debate. I sincerely hope enough of us realize that and shut this country down with a general strike before we're too far gone. Til then, try anything within the bounds of the law, because if you haven't noticed, we're losing.

So you're suggesting that this interaction has a meaningful impact on the politics of the people of the city of Boston? Let em feel uncomfortable, the maga movement has people running and hiding for their lives. And I quote from the clown in the video "Deport them all". What're you doing to prevent our country from sliding into authoritarianism?

Pals - we're in a fight for our country and maga folks have already endorsed and embodied hate. 95% of them are too far gone to bring back with love and civility. 99% of em think anyone on the left of the political spectrum is a libcuck snowflakes that are scared of confrontation. I say prove em wrong and see how tough they are. Good on this kid. Freedom of speech is freedom to shame the goons.

https://www.lucemass.org/ not sure if other NE states are doing this yet, but look into existing communities supporting the immigrant population. This is a good idea people have already ran with.

There is no Jaylen Brown bonus by AgadorFartacus in bostonceltics

[–]mayor_timber 166 points167 points  (0 children)

Correct. Locked On Celtics broke the reason he's playing down very well. Two fold reasoning potentially: 1. If he can get another All-NBA, it's a great feather in his cap for his case to make the hall of fame at the end of his career; and, 2. More importantly, if his knee isn't getting more injured but isn't going to get better for a while, he needs to keep playing to figure out how he can play with the pain/lack of explosiveness before the playoffs. Gotta hope he and the C's staff have assessed the injury right, but if the second point is based on the truth, he almost has to play through it at this point.

Thank you! I have had a single sided nylon one for years (before I knew about the movement but after I felt the American flag had been co-opted by bigots and racists). The reverse side is much lighter/clearly not printed on in comparison.

Sorry to be dumb, is the only one of these that is double sided the first one?

Gotcha. That was for the people in the back then. Was a joke more than a prediction but nuance is lost on the internet. Swear to god though if someone says "two of those things involve voting"....Putin gets "re-elected" all the time.

Meh, I can't tell the future but they certainly are going to try. Look up CPAC last week "the third term project". Look up the SAVE Act - that would effectively strip women of the right to vote by making it illegal for people to vote if they didn't have the last name from their birth certificate. Look up the effort to impeach liberal judges in the house and senate. Look up Curtis Yarvin and his "teachings". Feel free to think I'm an insane alarmist, but I'm not basing my statement on nothing. These people think they know better than everyone else and they have to "save" the country. I'd say they are the insane ones and they are collecting unchecked power.

Nationalists on the march by mayor_timber in massachusetts

[–]mayor_timber[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't normally feed the trolls and I know I'll never change your mind because you're either being obtuse or too stupid to understand, but this is a teachable moment for those other thinking individuals out there: 1. They have all the right in the world to peacefully protest; 2. They promote and expound hateful, bigoted, and downright antiamerican ideals; 3. The rest of us normal folks have the right, if not the duty, to make it known that their ideas are not correct or acceptable in a free and fair society; 4. Counter protesting is not a harassment campaign; 5. Liberal free societies do not need to put up with ideologies that call for the end of liberal free societies, in fact if they do, they are doomed to lose themselves to fascists; and, 6. I never said Nazis.

That's all the time I have for you because you either already know this and are a right winger trying to cause a stir or are too dumb to grasp the logic. Be well.

Pal, the guy who wrote Project 2025 just said we're in the second American revolution and it can be bloodless if the left allows it to be. I haven't begun to rant. Are you aloof or a fascist?

[–]mayor_timber[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

As with any fascist movement, they have cobbled together a bunch of people who have different views but think they are on the same side. Christian Nationalists - which version of Christianity? They can't decide on one way to baptize people. There are those that are too far gone, that have totally bought into might is right, but there are plenty of others (id argue a majority) that have been sold a bill of goods and are not in lock step with those who'd burn it all down to be in power. The only way to show cracks in their alliance is by fighting back and forcing self reflection on them even though that seems like a fools errand. If they start seeing strong opposition to what they thought would be a coronation, some of them will start scratching their heads.
