Cool. That doesn't make it anybody else's fault.

You're doing the thing. Republicans are not some force of nature with no will of its own, they're human beings with agency choosing to do terrible things.

Something tells me math has not happened here

$2.5M, divide by 8, is $312.5k per unit (more than double $150k). And you think renting that at the same price as a mortgage on $150k will make the owner rich?

Why make it illegal if there's no worry about it happening?

And in those situations where it might happen, why make housing costs worse by making it illegal?

The Obama era clean power plan never stood a chance because the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court was ideologically opposed to regulating greenhouse gases. This does not bode well for the endangerment finding legal battle currently making its way up to the top court.

Are you saying that if someone talks about a topic other than the one you're interested in, it's unintelligible to you? The skill issue goes deeper than I realized

Yes, lack of novelty is exhausting and not just in the "do I approve or not" setting!

Skill issue

Jealous!

Fight, famously not a normal reaction to an adrenaline rush. Nobody has ever called it a "fight or flight" response—that would be so silly. Flight, fawn, and freeze are the only things people actually do in suddenly stressful situations.

This is definitely going on my celebrity birthday calendar

Happy birthday!

But does she ever say

What the frick

The article itself isn't any better on that front. The closest it comes to acknowledging that the vehicle had a human driver is when it says that "none of the vehicle occupants were injured".

"a car vs building"
"a vehicle had crashed"

I'd say "we need to get a handle on these self-driving vehicles with anger issues" but something tells me that's not what happened here 🤔

Important detail from the article (quite a ways down): the allegations hinge on secondhand reports of text messages that have not been provided by the person claiming to have them; and they were allegedly sent many months after the ruling in the case. Judicial conduct investigation found nothing.

This does not make me despair

...between several projects to decide which could continue. After that the options to recover sunk costs are delay, sell, or kill (& offset gains taxes).

Different industries and I have no specific insight on this WB decision 🤷

But yeah, short-term cash management is my best guess

Coming from a power plant development perspective, it could be that they acquired (or created) it as part of a portfolio—ie with the expectation that some things would finish & be successful while others would die or flop—and when the time came to put up money for the next steps, they had to pick...

And Bednar is convinced he's doing careful textual analysis when half the time it's more of an exercise in eisegesis 🫣

As the son of a (former) judge... Tracks (derogatory)

What part of the 19th century are we talking?

Does this have to do with the practice of digging for treasure, or was that relatively small compared to other things that might've made geologists into celebs?

Absolutely. It's the same thing underlying that saying "first they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win". They know he has influence that gets in their way, so they're trying to diminish it.

The paywall kicks in before the article says what's actually new that's happening. Does it ever? "Range extender" EVs have been around for a bit...

Huh? Starbucks has a lot more than one union store... Do you mean their only union store in a particular area?

ALL HAIL PHONE HOLDER

just the sweetest little pangolin you ever saw

fun fact: no pangolin has ever done a single thing wrong in the entire history of the world

Plus, that cone's not flimsy enough—it really should be a skinny plastic pillar that drivers are less afraid to run over (& destroy)

On the real or fake side? 😉
