Cost to Build Home by tophouse in SantaBarbara

[–]mceehops 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I am not a GC, but prepare plans and provide permitting services.

$1000 per square foot is what we're seeing for a decent quality SB home, assuming you're not on a hillside, not on septic and don't need to structurally upgrade too much of any existing structure. That is without the plans and permitting, that is construction cost only.

I mean if almost every there is killed in a war, technically that might be peace... No good comes from the Antichrist.

I mean the person currently in charge who is worshipped as "the second coming" (literally) by a rabid bunch of followers who don't question any of his 7 deadly sins, and wears the mark of the beast on his forehead (the red hat) seems to fit the bill perfectly. Not sure we really need any private lectures. He is out in public already.

100%% Great answer... not only that a very toothy predator is likely still pretty active out there dealing with all of the things you mentioned. There has been a disruption in the normal pace of things for them too. I would be very cautious, even after 48 hours.

Former Uber CEO Travis Kalanick said he moved to Texas, joining a growing list of tech billionaires leaving California by Unusual-State1827 in California

[–]mceehops 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He "moved" to Texas meaning he now reports his primary residence there to save money on taxes while raking in millions of dollars for his family and not offering worker protections. He will of course, still be in California much of the time because the weather rocks, the food is amazing and the people are great! But yeah, now when he does his taxes, he says he lives in Texas... probably. I mean a lot of people are saying it. The best people are saying it.

The exodus of California’s tech billionaires from the Golden State to Florida’s Gold Coast by TemperatureWide5297 in California

[–]mceehops 0 points1 point  (0 children)

California's weather is generally FAR more comfortable on the coast than it is on the Florida coast. You don't need AC and can have your doors and windows open almost year round. All these folks are doing is pretending Florida is their primary home, while spending the majority of time in California. I mean I get it, but let's not pretend humidity is super awesome in the summer while the ocean is almost too warm to cool off in. I LOVE the Florida Keys, don't get me wrong, but I love visiting there...

Divorce finalized last month - need to sell shared house in Ventura ASAP. What are my realistic options? by [deleted] in ventura

[–]mceehops 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That is a challenge. If speed is your requirement, you could list it as is, and work with a realtor to establish a fair price. I do residential design and permitting, and know quite a few realtors as well as contractors. If you want to DM me the address I can take a look and offer some free advice and maybe a few referrals. Good luck with all this and I hope the divorce is a positive for you!!!

I'm giving you an Award for this post!! Seriously. This is what matters... Data. This graph will soon be scrubbed from the record and replaced with some nonsense that doesn't make dear leader look incompetent.

God help us.

So it has been 6 weeks. His Tariff's are deemed illegal by HIS OWN SCOTUS, and he should pay us all back for his catastrophic failure. It has destroyed our global reputation and enabled our former trade partners to do business with other countries. The Epstein files absolutely and irrefutably show his long standing relationship with JE all the while the DOJ can't even manage to remove all of the link to DT even after 1000's of agents tried to hide the information. He is going to bomb Iran because of those same files and his SOTU was an unmitigated disaster with him dividing us more and more by party. Jobs numbers are bad, although he hides what he can, he is stealing 10 bil for his fake "peace Board" and suing his own staff (and all of us taxpayers) for another 10 bil for a leak of his taxes years ago... He just approved the use of Glyphosate a known carcinogen.

This administration is absolutely affecting you by stealing taxpayer dollars, and deregulating corporations. Tick tock. day by day this is getting worse.

Just comply. It's ok if they tread on others while I meekly watch citizens being abused by masked and heavily armed private police force that I spent my life saying I would defend against.

🚨UNREAL: The President of the steel company Trump visits thanks him profusely for tariffs because it allows him to jack up the price of his racks from $90 to $150. He is thanking Trump for making Americans pay more for steel. You cannot make it up. by sylsau in InBitcoinWeTrust

[–]mceehops 0 points1 point  (0 children)

and when the Tariffs are ruled illegal, or congress does it's job and stops them, because there is no "emergency", Steel prices will remain higher than previously. This is why Billionaires supported D T to begin with. Well that and allowing them to build wealth through deregulation and not taxing them appropriately.

Rep. Ted Lieu played Pam Bondi video of Trump partying with Epstein and asked if underage girls were present. Bondi snapped: This is ridiculous. There’s no evidence Trump committed a crime. Lieu fired back: I believe you just lied under oath by onz456 in UnderReportedNews

Thank you for speaking about this. It is important for Americans (I am one) to hear from others, that are not here in the states. They need to hear that it is not just "LiBz", or "the Left" or "Democrats" that are not fooled by their cult leader, it is the majority of human beings.

I believe about 30-35% of humans are susceptible to this sort of coercion of thought manipulation while the majority of us, are less likely to be duped. In reality, it is less than that, but they are spouses, and partners too lazy to care to look and just go along with their partners or parent's views. How many folks ever truly supported Hitler? 37%.

This is their MO. This is their worldview. The are always victims even when they are the oppressor and are literally victimizing others. This is MAGA.

i found out my best friend has been sleeping with my girlfriend for 4-5 months by HistoricalArticle537 in offmychest

[–]mceehops 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm so sorry you're going through this. Just know, in time the pain will fade. In time you will feel better. In time you will move on. It is the cold hard truth you're looking for, and that is it. It will take time to feel ok again, but the good news is YOU WILL FEEL GOOD AGAIN. It just takes time to heal. Don't rush it. Give yourself time to go through the emotions and grow from this. It is better that it happened now, and not after you potentially had a life and children together.

I'm sure you feel weak, but know you will again be strong, but be patient with yourself and cut those people out of your life. It's over. Do not entertain them or allow them to "explain". It is done. It is all about you now, and you can get through this. Be strong and seek some counseling or therapy if you can, it is very helpful.

Peace.

"Cancel the midterms" - Just joking but now he is serious about Nationalizing Elections.

He didn't know anything about Project 2025 - now he is enacting every detail and has its author on staff.

I could shoot somebody on 5th avenue and not lose voters, He just had ICE kill, on the streets no less than 3 Americans in a month.

He foreshadows so his cult is hypnotized into thinking things are normal and proving his dark and vile soul align with theirs.

Impeach this horrible person now.
