  • I may have an opportunity coming up to work in greater Austin. It's tempting for many reasons, and I like the area, but I don't think I can make it work for exactly that reason...housing prices are sky high.

    For me it would mean trading a lot of financial stability for quality of life, or having a commute similar to yours. Living in or near the city is probably still manageable for those who have been there for many years, but I think most newcomers will find housing prohibitively expensive.

  • It's like the alt-1985 Biff reality came to pass.

    Any reasonable person looking at these circumstances say 10, 15, 20 years ago would think 'No, that could never happen. He'd be barred from office, maybe even imprisoned."

    And yet, here we are. This timeline, for the US anyway, deserves to be pruned.

  • A steady stream of people showing up daily with nothing, starting from scratch, is not a crisis to you?

    What do we do with those who show up to find all the farm jobs in Idaho and other places are filled? Furthermore, do you condone the treatment refugees receive while working these jobs?

    There are certainly racists opposed to letting in refugees, and a lot of them make policy on such things. But minimizing the long term need to assist the ongoing influx of people as purely racism isn't productive. We have no solution for what to do with all of them.

    Leaving drugs completely out of discussion, this is a humanitarian crisis. Do you think just opening up the border and letting whatever happens afterward work itself out is the answer?

  • Dusty Deevers, lmao. I went to elementary school with him for a few years. You don't forget a name like that. Trust me, he comes by the dipshitidness honestly from growing up in that Oklahoma town. It's isolated and simple, and at least 50 years behind the times. I wouldn't call anyone from there wordly.

    I was obviously just a kid at the time, but an opportunity came and I noped the hell out.

  • Fuck sake Harris, why make fear your message? Republicans and supporters love that. Why give them what they want?

    Voters need to hear about resolve. Strength through sanity. Looking past MAGA rather than making it the focus.

  • They're so eager to turn down anything perceived as coming from Biden that they're speeding their own irrelevance. Many of the kids they're screwing over will remember these things the R cult is doing now. They'll reach voting age, more elderly bigots will die, MAGA will be just a reminder of dark times, and many things will improve.

  • Playing it safe will definitely work, but also there's nothing wrong with using your sink disposal properly. Nothing hard or firm like bones or plastic, no coffee grounds, and don't drain fat in the sink.
