i get the sentiment. they hosed over union drivers so the thing to do for solidarity would be to tell albertsons and co to gently caress off. (also every other industry these apps have destroyed, but that's a longer story...)

ah. I thought there might be some back story about a grocery store having employees that delivered groceries that were striking or something. Idk, doesn't seem to match scabbing by definition, but perhaps it does in spirit? still seems tenuous

definitely depends on your perspective. but within this framework, i think short sellers are seen as the baddies. they're borrowing money trying to drive down the price so that they can steal money from your 401k

Na imma look at your participation here, mr. "You're a lovely poster and I hate you by the way gas the Jews my name is Gay crimes irony Lord dipshit."

You have 13 posts in this entire thread and you've spent most of them endeavoring to Karen-police us in this one instance in defense of someone who says 1488 gas the Jews. This one issue has activated you from your lurking slumber to protect the integrity of the thread. This is your THING. THIS.

gently caress off, you pathetic defender of ironic Nazi bullshit. gently caress you. I'm going to lay in a loose knit hammock with my hands behind my back, in complete serenity, and ooze big stinky steaming shits out of my rear end in a top hat directly into your greedily open mouth while you lay under me, slavering. Like you're McAfee himself.

Deactivate yourself from existence here until you're awakened again to pursue your mission to lick the balls of himmler, you explainer of thread norms, "gay_crimes"

Nazi poo poo must be like your loving bat signal or something. It awakened you. It's really your pet issue, apparently. Snuffle greedily after my farts like they're the kisses of angels from God himself, you utter sack of poo poo. Go jerk off in a corner until you're needed again to defend the honor of the gas the Jews demographic.

I prefer Taintrunner tbh
e: also, i am not an irony lord. dunno what that's about. i am literally a gay man and my name is a nod towards the rejection of rainbow capitalism and a reminder that being gay has long been criminalized and still is in many places. be gay do crimes

I just told him to gently caress off, I didn't go balls out taintrunner until I scoped his participation in the thread, over 50% of his posts are to holler at people for not taking a good joke cuz gassing Jews 1488 ain't no thing.

I’m not defending nazis, you absolute moron. That other poster who used to tell people to kill themselves repeatedly came into the thread late and with self righteous energy, started trying to whip everyone into hysterics over the post pages later. it’s the same flavor of dumb poo poo that happened a year ago, you inserted yourself into something you don’t seem to understand

city centers would be a lot closer to wilderness if not for all those space-inefficient suburbs in the way generating more traffic

Unfortunately, "density" the YIMBYs push for in my area seems to mean standing up lovely 5 story buildings that contain a ton of parking because they're cheap as hell and the greenwashing libs get to celebrate densification. They're popping up all over the place here (Austin, TX). They seem to me to entrench car culture rather than offer an alternative that is denser, they have paper thin walls and absolutely clog the roads near them that were built 50 years ago for far fewer motorists. Thinking about the suburbs filled with strip malls encircling an area filled with lovely new development that will quickly fall into disrepair is jokerfying. The new awful development may be an improvement over burbs, but my gut tells me it's still terrible. I want to flee this place but am not sure where I would go aside from back home, where there are no jobs. Is density done "right" anywhere in the US?

I'm interested in the episode topics, but it can be a tedious listen. I end up skipping forward somewhat frequently

My current landlord for the past 5 years has claimed a homestead exemption for this property and has made an estimated $70k in profit based on my rent minus property taxes, insurance, one replaced appliance and a few handyman calls made and probably 2 hours total spent responding to emails and making calls. She was gifted this property by her parents when she went to college and has been renting it out for 16 years. This property has doubled in value since I moved in.

TLDR: :guillotine:

if amazon did transport every one of its warehouse workers to NYC to execute them in the middle of fifth avenue, it actually probably would tank their share price for quite some time, and might even have ripple effects on the market as a whole

Hope everyone here has a house by now if you want one

It feels like I used everything I had to grab onto the ladder as it was being hoisted away permanently. Housing has been moving in this direction for a while but it feels like the pandemic accelerated us into a new state where house ownership has become impossible for everyone except the landed gentry and corporations. Rising property taxes and offers too good to refuse will continue the trend and reclaim home ownership from people who shouldn't have one in the new order

maybe the hyperinflation is to cushion the people that are going to get evicted in like 3 months or whatever which will crater housing prices, but if the cratering is relative to a million instead of 500k, no one wealthy really loses out lol

idk, rentals seem totally disconnected from real estate sales, and in the super heated markets, the eviction moratorium doesn’t seem to make much of a difference. I’m in Austin though so ymmv

In some hot markets, winners are often paying cash, or significant cash down (25-50%). Is the crisis more likely to catch people taking out second mortgages? I can't imagine cash buyers or buyers with enough cash on hand to put 50% down are going to be wrecked like the subprime lendees from last time around. It's either a fundamental change to dollar or just a temporary flattening before number continues to skyrocket?
