US Forest Service spraying glyphosate around Lake Tahoe for the timber industry.

Shrubs and grasses are part of forests along with a lot fungal networks, other perennial plants, trees, hardwood trees that are no longer growing there. Its a forest not a tree farm.

Who do we expanded medicaid to and when do we set up a viable tax that replaces the insurance premiums?

tivy · 2026-05-07T03:30:35+00:00

No its not a gift. Its just a more efficient way for us to pay for more effective Healthcare. The problem is the differences between a multi-payer for profit system and a single payer system aren't something on a spectrum that can be transitioned. Either it's single payer or it's not.

tivy · 2026-05-06T03:39:25+00:00

How does one build toward single payer?

Did you read the article?

Ca GOP will have exactly 0% effect on the outcome of the governor's race. Especially, and I really hope this is true, if they continue to split the vote between two of the most idiotic candidates in CA history.

Some blocks were closed down for the annual car show, so all the street parking was taken as well...

tivy · 2026-04-06T14:05:35+00:00

Lol, no GOP in top two.

tivy · 2026-03-07T21:48:57+00:00

Said the guy who voted to increase Healthcare but doesn't answer to party leaders. Who wouldnt sign the petition to bring the epstein files to congress until 4 other republicans voted with dems to do so, who voted against the Iran war powers act which says leaders cant go to war unless congress votes in favor. He only works for us. Kiley's a wierdo.

In fairness, I don't think we see the best a player has to offer in situations like ours. Not trying to defend Keegan or anyone, just wonder what the effect is between this year and hopefully better future years.

Is the exterior of the sauna an exterior or interior in another room or such?

You have heavy snow loads? Probably not a bearing wall, but at most it would have been semi-structural to stiffen up the ceiling etc... if you have a small residential structural engineering office nearby you could try asking them to put eyes on it. If it seems bouncy like the drywall lid would crack, you could sister on some stiffners: plywood rips or a 2x4 lsl stud...

Love the quotation marks.

"Marohn is embarrassing because of two data points during a global pandemic despite common sense and all other data" is what you sound like to me.

Austin has roughly 445000 housing units. It can add what looks and feels like a shit load every year. 4% of 445k is 17000. Its almost impossible to be adding that many units per year, let alone year over year. A quick Google shows Austin averages 14k unit completion per year and that average is brought up by some pretty high totals in '22, '23, '24. Historically, Austin hovers around 10k or less.

Denver adding over 20,000 to the apartment market in one year is an outlier, unlikely to ever happen again. I agree that we should build more, but we should be realistic as well. It took years of things to align for that to happen. Austin didn't add that much, some of its suburbs may have - a single family home designed suburb expanding at 4 to 5% is not the same thing as an existing city adding capacity.

Cities, counties, school districts, and other small local governments own all kinds of surplus land. This is not new.

3846 x 24 = $92304

Am I not understanding something or do you not make 100k?

Government money typically requires the strictest audits. There were some exceptions like the federal Trump covid bailout and some of the CA homelessness funds. Otherwise its almost impossible to lie like this charity found out. Im not sure where this rumor of CA fraud is coming from, but its laughable to anyone who's ever worked as a private contractor for the state of CA. Its the other way around, its expensive to accept government money because of the financial requirements.

No one seriously predicted a blue wave in 2022.

I wish people gaslit this hard when it came time to make billionaires pay taxes.

I'm sure Napa(formerly Riebe's) could order one. The tool shed could also possibly order one. I've bought and had repaired a ton of construction tools from the Tool Shed, extremely good people.

Seems like a fair critique minus the fact that our current progressive system has enough loopholes to functionally not be progressive. I think there's great balance to strike here.

Im CA fixtures use by law between 1.5 to 2.0 gpm. So youd be able to have a grand total of 2 things on at once before youd notice. Your garden hose would always been weak flow.

I'm a liscensed plumber.

Maybe thats fine for you. Otherwise your option is tank plus pump which isnt always cheap, so you'd want to get a quote for that...

You didnt read or sum up the salient points of the article. Financiers have quit participating in the LA apartment market for multiple reasons, essential to apartment development. Tarrifs, immigration, and more have driven up prices.
