Yeah, same here. 13 inches is honestly too much for most women. I wish it were only 10.

It depends on whether you consider PRC and Stalin “left.” There are plenty of their supporters out on the internet.

Wait, he’s alive? I’ve been reading stories of his death for the past day or so.

You win this time, Internet!

I had actually put that info in my post but deleted it. It’s around 34% that own their house outright without a loan.

New Orleans might be the city (in the US) I’ve been to with the most glaringly obvious wealth disparity on display.

That is the percentage of homes owned by the people living in them, not the percentage of Americans who own homes.

Over a third (35%) of single family homes are owned by landlords, not by the people living in them. When a third of your single family homes are not owned by single families, then there is an issue.

The 26% number another person used might be percentage of US adults who own a home, but I can’t find that number anywhere. The difference is most single family homes have 2 adults (or more) but is only “owned” by one of them. Or that is a statistic that uses multi-family housing where most of the families are renters.

A lot of airbnbs are owned by corporations. Also, airbnb came out around the time corporations really started investing in single family homes en masse. Airbnb started in 2008, which was at the same time as the housing bubble collapse that helped investors buy up on the cheap. It’s hard to say which was the chicken and which was the egg.

I got a downvote for saying that smoking kills you slowly and eventually painfully. Like, how is that debatable at this point? Am I getting a downvote because I’m not vibing?

It’s like a word for word replay.

You would have to be an absolute moron to think smoking only kills you early. That’s not how it works.

Even if you don’t like the world around you today and aren’t enthusiastic about the future, the way smoking kills you makes your day to day worse until you eventually get a very painful day to day until you eventually give out and die. You are advocating slowly committing both expensive and painful suicide over a 30 year span because you don’t want to live for 40 more years.

I also had that issue with the movie.

That is an absolutely absurd line-out veto. It’s the kind of “malicious compliance” I would like to do as my last act in office before retiring.

A) You can’t “invade” something you already possess… is how he will spin it when he tries to invade.

B) Didn’t Putin say the same thing about Ukraine?

Like you’ve never done a line off Grandma.

Is it rude to say, “You know what? I think I’ll walk.”

He scored a hat trick in the World Cup final and won the golden boot playing with France. If that doesn’t cap tie you to a country, I don’t know what would.

So many issues with attacking the governor this way.

1. This is the data for 1 year in his 4 year term. What did it look like the other years? Well, we can see that for 2022-23 the rate of decrease slowed down, from 0.8% to 0.3%. This makes sense because rent-vs-buy ratios have changed wildly in big cities in the last couple years.

2. This is a similar rate of decline for other high cost of living states (CA, NY, HI) without having the benefit of CA and HI weather and beauty.

3. It’s the same rate of decline per capita as Louisiana (Republican governor) and West Virginia (Republican governor).

4. It leaves out who is leaving and why. Is it MAGAs upset that they can’t be racist asshats as freely? Is it low income people who can’t afford to live there due to the high taxes? Is it because his leadership drove jobs out of state? Is it because the state protected abortion rights, and religious people wanted to move to FL instead?

Got it, so that makes it alright to kill 30,000 civilians who aren’t child soldiers.

I’m glad you reset my moral compass.

Neglecting him being cap tied to France and could never play for Spain, I feel like Spain might be even less aligned with his values.

He also said he wouldn’t represent a country that doesn’t follow his values.
