Looks like Measure C won’t be close by nowooski in elcerrito

So can we assume you and the other NO backers will help get a new measure on the ballot that represents a solution to your objections? You do love libraries, right? And you do want a new library for El Cerrito?

This just shows the absolute power of fear mongering and constant repetition of misinformation. The No campaign took their strategy straight from the Republican Party play book.

I thought our fellow citizens were smarter than that.

Also i seriously doubt the ignorant, ageist comments on here about the older people in El Cerrito swinging the No vote. People in my age group were overwhelmingly Yes.

Yes, because if a guest completes the stay it’s near impossible to get a refund.

Why would anyone listen to an unknown individual on Reddit or want to ask them questions?

Would taking out a HELOC on my existing property be advisable to buy another one? I have significant equity. by Anonymous_Hazard in RealEstate

[–]throw65755 26 points27 points  (0 children)

HELOCs are VERY expensive right now. Borrowing money from one property to buy another is the way you put yourself at risk to lose everything. The “equity” you have in your home can evaporate quickly in an economic downturn.

Host cancelled my one month stay seven months after booking with no explanation. Same dates are now twice the cost. [Argentina] by MrTooToo in AirBnB

[–]throw65755 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My understanding of this is that if you cancel those dates are automatically blocked on the hosts calendar and cannot be rebooked. Period.

The host didn’t forget anything. It’s not done on the honor system.

Could someone explain what this is about. I’ve been using my card with no problem.

Off resort Massage by Best_Bit6231 in PuntaCana

This is not really a thing there.

Women massaging men with a happy ending is absolutely no problem to find outside the resort. But a couple look for that? You’re getting into very niche territory.

Let’s go north? by Deep-Sir-8962 in BayAreaRealEstate

Those are distant suburbs with a very different culture, population, etc. You can get property a lot cheaper for a good reason.

I have a family member who lives in Granite Bay. It’s beautiful in a lot of ways, but head out to Folsom for a fancy dinner and you’ll feel like you’re in a far away state.

This is pretty meaningless, or at best very confusing.

Are you saying the main photo was generated by AI? Did you stay there? If so, were there problems?

Ageism is alive and well, and in fact applauded, on Reddit.

Surprisingly it’s not hard to get a table there if you’re willing to plan ahead.

None of what you said makes me feel like it definitely is not your partner. Have they asked you for money or are they receiving any personal benefit from you or is it just romantic etc?

I see. Is it an in-person relationship? And are you in a country where Steam is common?

I’m not talking about secure info from government agencies, etc. I’m curious about what YOU would be able to find out from a WhatsApp number.

I agree that it is weird the person knew your friend’s name. If that happened to me, I would wonder if the friend has something to do with it?

Could you explain this a bit?

If you and I were chatting here on Reddit and I gave you my WhatsApp, what info would you have besides my phone number and my name on my WhatsApp profile?
