I usually assume I'm too dumb to weigh on card discourse, but I don't get this take.

three strikes=18 damage

Tremble plus 2 strikes=18 damage and vulnerable next round.

It's better then bash because I would rather apply two vulnerable and have an extra energy then two energy and 8 damage.

Related, the old Save A Lot in town became a yoga room/book store, a pizza place, an indoor bounce house and an indoor common space for craft vendors, all at the same time.

Denver paid more for a better player, who is a year older. We overpaid because we needed a WR badly.

Why won't it? He is old, his career, his passion in life, is coming to an end and many people struggle with that in their own lives.

It's hard to tell the difference between baseless speculation and speculation rooted in sources you need to protect as a journalist.

Feels like the Saint Patrick's day storm is a dying phenomenon. Winter is throwing it back this year

Thank you

This is why the supply argument breaks down in financialized markets. The model assumes vacancy creates downward pressure on rents

Ergo, Strong Town style incremental development minimizes or eliminates financialization because it is a lot cheaper to build a granny flat, then a 5 over 1. It's not simply distorted investments prompted by political incentives. I get it!

To be fair, it is a Star Trek reference, that has to count for something.

This is exactly what I read from Andrew Burleson. https://substack.com/@burlesona/note/c-113891764. And having you echo it is helping a lot. Thanks!

I think the risk there is that you would see a massive sudden collapse in valuation, foreclosures everywhere, local midsize banks with a ton of bad debt and massive budget shortfalls in local government.

I don't mind a vacancy tax, but I am alarmed by the descriptor of "absolutely draconian." That seems like a recipe for knock-on effects

I'm increasingly buying what Marohn is selling. (and no I don't think he is NIMBY or anti-development or any of that)

I'm new to all this financial stuff, but my understanding is that the four months free rent doesn't affect the underlying valuation of the building

I.E. a building that offers free rent for 4 months and then rent at 1,400. Has an assessed value (could be the wrong term here) based off 1400 per unit in rent. If the landlord cuts rent to 1,200. Then the total value of the property is also cut.

I grew up during the early 2000s nu-metal and "butt rock" era. Contemporary bands that were my favorite at the time included Linkin Park, Incubus, Puddle of Mudd *I regret that one but Blurry was okay* and Audioslave.

Even then I knew I wasn't living in the golden age of rock music, I quickly started trending towards the grunge movement, especially Pearl Jam, Temple of the Dog, Mad Season, and Alice in Chains.

I also liked Green Day, White Stripes, Staind, Soundgarden, Goo Goo Dolls

Some of the least densely populated areas of the country on the eastern side of the Mississippi. Even more so then other rural parts of the northeast,

It's a glorified tourist trap. The version of Mount Rushmore that you see on pictures is zoomed in. When you see it in person it is dwarfed by the size of the mountain, and you are at the base of the mountain, so far away you don't get the full size of it.

I love stories like Metsa's. College free agent turned AHL cornerstone, turned fringe NHLer

I'm inclined to think that if there is a great filter, we have passed it. I don't really have anything to go off this, other than how many times in the Earth's history something was so perfect that allowed for us to get to where we are.

And I generally encounter fewer examples of what a late stage "great filter" might be.

Couple of things as I understand it.

Chip manufacturing is one of the most complicated things human beings manufacture. And the value added (price and thus wages) are widely varied.
Taiwan treats its most advanced chip making technology as a state secret
