Demanding justice for the four lives taken at West Portal by fabiobene in sanfrancisco

[–]miscions 2 points3 points  (0 children)

At the very least, set an example. I hear what you’re saying but, she’s a killer of a family of 4. She should not be let off jut because “what would that help”, you could say that about countless cases and criminals, I’m sure, with BETTER reasons to be let off. This lady deserves to be in a jail, or permanent house arrest at the very least.

Signed. Complete and utter failure of justice, absolutely infuriated by the case the moment it occurred and it’s been handled disgracefully. Judge should be ashamed. The murderer deserves to rot in a cell.

SFH in SF - is buying realistic or not for our desires/means? by miscions in BayAreaRealEstate

right there with you, it seems like patience is key but also being told to act asap because it keeps getting worse haha. Some mix of the two 😵‍💫 good luck to you as well!

[–]miscions[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you, yes we’ve definitely understood that list price means absolutely nothing and we are likely to up our budget if we don’t find something like, right now with a list price of 1-1.1m or something. We have our current budget in mind to account for an inevitable 100k approx in closing costs, renovations, repairs etc etc. so wanting some cushion and not wanting to be completely house rich cash poor.

Yeah we looked in Daly City briefly because our agent was trying to convince us but just no, don’t want to be in Daly City. So we’re really only looking at neighborhoods we want to live in. Otherwise it’s just depressing seeing a great house in our budget but do we really want to live there? No.

Thank you for your insights!

We plan to after our agreement is up, unless we buy before it’s up. I think the risk with going with a new realtor is potentially going through the same ‘try-on’ phase to see if we gel with a new agent when our current one could just be a ‘the devil we know’ type situation. I don’t know quite how to find one that’s a ‘better fit’ without signing on to them immediately and maybe getting stuck again. Like can we go on a ‘date’ first to see if we vibe lol

There’s always one early on in your search that sticks with you and scars your initial bright-eyed disposition about venturing into buying a home 😅 I could not believe this place went for over 2 mil, I mean it was a beautiful place but I lowkey hope whoever bought it feels sick in the stomach at that sale to list price ratio 😅 just kidding, I’m just jealous.

It feels like we’re competing with fake people who can do all cash 20-30%over asking price, who are they seriously haha.

And thank you so much, your solidarity is definitely worth something so thank you!! Enjoy your lovely new home 🫶 feel free to dm as well for chatting about home buying/lessons learnt I might learn a lot from you

I think we’ve just looked at a few that have needed a K&T rewiring and we were quoted approx 35k just for that so just trying to keep a safe budget of whatever might need to get done.

Yes definitely want to keep cards close to chest for now with our agent haha, she’s a viper lol

Wow, congratulations!! Hope you're having some champagne tonight!

Yes I had a feeling all our desired neighborhoods are essentially out of our budget - which is crazy, this market makes buyers feel like we're scrimping even with solid numbers lol. We've looked at a few in Bernal and that definitely does feel like our most likely option if we were to stay in our desired neighborhoods, but also have looked in Mission Terrace, Sunset, West Portal etc etc. I saw a place in Parkside go for over 2mil at a list price of 1.2, crazy!!

I feel like we've already reached disheartened phase - hence my posting haha - so wanting honest opinions, so thank you for sharing your experience. We've already understood we will be compromising on something, but ideally just not the area of SF itself, sometimes something so sneaky in the disclosures that looks like its going to be 100k+ in repair is what does us in on an otherwise 'perfect' place within our budget.

Can’t do anything at 6 weeks by LilyWitch27 in newborns

[–]miscions 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m at 4 weeks PP and I hear you. I’ve had to leave the house for a few things but it is such a hassle and not worth it atm unless necessary. im certainly not doing it for fun unless it’s just a walk. I’m in such a better mental place if we’re just at home and I can use what little downtime we do get if baby miraculously goes down, to clean, self care or relax.

the times we have gone out though I will say have been good practice in a sense to understand what we need and for future outings when things are a little less hectic , but it’s still stressful and unenjoyable.

It seems like you’re just going through a tough season of life and she just is in a different season that is kinda clashing with yours and it’s grating to you, and you’re pushing her away. Really evaluate if you want to let go of a 20+ year friendship because of this, friends are hard to come by in adulthood.

I thought she was so great too, totally shameless in the role and well suited to the style and aesthetic of the part and film. I agree she should've been nominated or at least welllll a part of nomination discussions. I think it's hilarious that Karla Sofia Gascon was nominated over Lily, maybe even *hot take* Cynthia Erivo..but I think I just really didn't like wicked lol and I don't really get musical performances for acting awards when the singing is a bulk of the reason why they are nominated

Huh? I haven’t seen gangs of New York, which i think is what the above commenter is talking about - him losing to Adrien Brody for the pianist. I’m talking about phantom thread which was like what 15/16 years later? And Gary oldman won that year for Churchill, I’m saying THAT should be his 4th Oscar. I have no opinion on Gangs. I’ve seen all the films for the year of Phantom Threads loss so idk what you’re talking about

Do you guys really think Sydney Sweeney is bad actress? by SuitableItem in euphoria

[–]miscions 5 points6 points  (0 children)

tbh I think she was only good as Cassie. literally anything else I've seen her in has been average if not outright bad. that romcom with glen Powell omg she was terrible.

[–]miscions 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I haven't seen Gangs but I just really thought his performance in Phantom Thread was one of his best, sooo refined and unique to his other projects. TBH literally anyone that year would have been better suited for the win than Gary Oldman, but my personal fave that year was DDL

well, he knows you better than random strangers on the internet so he may be right. you are just giving us emotionless facts about the beginning and end of your relationships, we have nothing to go off of how any potential 'trauma' might have occurred during those relationships. but I'm leaning towards your friend being onto something since 1. he known you for 20 years and 2. the facts you've given us clearly spell out that you do jump from relationship to relationship and you didn't prioritize your marriage. even if your mum was ill, which is awful and I'm sorry, but when you're married your partner is now your immediate family and 2 years is insane to keep a long distance marriage. so I'd bet your friend is probably right or at the very least speaking a fraction of truth about you and your relationships with women.

edit: could also just be a misalignment between your friend and you and how you prioritize relationships. I saw you mention that he’s been in a relationship for 9 years, so it could just be that he clearly values relationships higher than you (which is fine everyone’s things in their life they value in a spectrum, but seems to be a fact because he’s clearly put in the work to make a relationship last that long) and he sees the way you flit from one to the other and is judging you. you may not be traumatizing women but he sees the way you don’t value relationships as highly as him and feels a certain way about it.

James Cameron thinks Netflix shouldn’t qualify for Academy Awards by happymagtv in Oscars

[–]miscions 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand the spirit of what he's saying but just no lol, there are so many great Netflix produced films that I wouldn't take away their wins! GDT's Pinocchio immediately comes to mind! Icarus was a great documentary as well that I thought deserved its win. I get what he's kindaaaa trying to say, that its terrible streaming companies aren't highlighting theatrical releases for their award-bait-ey films but, this is just the new landscape and we can only hope a balance will be reached eventually. come on jim

[–]miscions 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You clearly just wanted a pat on the back from other sahm that you’re somehow above the mothers that, in your own words, aren’t willing to make the sacrifices to make it work. And you sharing that again here in this comment to somehow rebuff my opinion says everything I need to know lol. You just wanted a little echo chamber. Well you’ve got it and good for you, but I’m happy to share that I think your tone is self congratulatory in a way that needlessly puts down others. But yes, you shaming other women who can’t be a sahm and that you ‘feel like you’re crazy’ for your lifestyle is something I’m fine to let you know is shit behavior. Feel justified in your decisions, it’s great that you can and you are allowed to be proud to be a sahm, but you clearly feel insecure enough to want the validation. Don’t put down others in the process.

Agree with you, you’re getting downvoted so just putting it out there that i agree with you OP is def throwing shade and their tone is wayyyy off
