me: im not going to get into a bidding war over this house
me: on my second offer to make sure i get this house

...and the lender just came in with a monthly payment equal to my rent on the Vintage House.

*only* thing that sucks is I'll be on hotspot the first month.

love that zillow just recommended to me the home i just put an offer in on. (tbf i saw it the second it listed and fell in love, saw it today and...it has had a single owner since 1965 and all the shag carpet is *pristine*, the wood paneling is pristine, and my god i'm gonna keep it that way)

working on buying a house and was looking in a neighborhood i haven't been to in *years*. It has both homeless shelters and the soup kitchen but there has been this weird push to gentrify it cause its downtown.

They gentrified the fucking discount smoke shop. The place that used to sell loosies.

just sent my grown man of a partner a lyft home because "there's a bunch of kids drinking at this after prom party and I dont feel safe with the way they're acting".

on the one hand, good to see house parties back
on the other hand, he was supposed to be a chaperone.

from the wiki article on the movie Behind the Green door, in discussing the context of early porn movies, someone wrote "Three years after Andy Warhol's seminal Blue Movie in 1969, and along with Deep Throat, "

that sure is a word choice

a 24 hour notice from my landlord about inspections Tuesday, March 18th. (for 2026, the year i recieved this, Tuesday is march 17th...)

someday my landlord will get a calendar. Today was not that day.

Only for big complexes. Private landlords are far more varied in what they keep on file. Plenty of private landlords out there that are just winging it and because theyve been lucky to not have to take a shitshow tenant to court before, do not do their due dilligence.

To a certain extent, at least in the US, you can absolutely be so. The requirement of police to make you give ID has been ruled unconstitutional multiple times, so while driving is out, you can walk without ID, you can buy things cash....

Happy March 15. Here is my favorite Ides of March meme:

THUNDERSNOW

Yeah, she was on Amy Poehler's podcast talking about how cause she was in a band with some of the same guys they got her signed to Nettwerk. Her first albums were prodcued by Greg Reely who did...most of FLA's discog.

kinda would love to see the world where she did more industrial stuff.

Finding out that Sarah McLachlan's first record deal was given by skinny puppy is....pretty accurate actually

"They have a barbie for everything, they have hot dog barbie, autism barbie, wheelchair barbie...."
"Is there a domestic violence ken doll?"
"I believe thats GI Joe"

ok, dak prescott's relationship has made for some great "still ringless" jokes

Found my partners secret indie folk playlist. Proof that no matter how hardcore of a rocker you are the millienal inside wins out.

I'm convinced AI is our generation's radium - a discovery with genuinely useful applications in specific, controlled circumstances that we stupidly put in everything from kid's toys to toothpaste until we realised the harm far too late where future generations will ask if we were out of our minds.

the publicly facing ones, sure. ones that are designed to be tools and have thousands of tokens worth of system prompts are actually kinda useful

nothing like finding out i need to get my birth certificate, paythe fees, and *then* I can apply for my mom's birth certificate which ineed to get my grandma's death certificate and dad's death certificate...

ok google search has gotten scary in that i go searching for my dad's obit to get his date of death to order a death certificate cause i just got one fat unclaimed property check, might as well make the most of being the last one left, and the AI summary gave it to me

Have money burning a hole in my pocket. Went to dinner, head shop, liquor store and casino. Somehow only wound up down $20

just started new vegas DLC for the first time and my native partner is sitting next to me busting his ass laughing at "they speak a language called Res"

im pretty sure i just saw the i'm a mac, i'm a pc ad campaign resurrected to sell....ozempic

havent gone swimming in forever, forgot what a workout it is

plus a lot of stations even if they dont "sign off" cut to infomertial every night. A few around me did both - our main station would do the "So ends our broadcast day" thing with eagles and flags and whatnot and then cut to infomertials.

by legal status, sure, but its a part of the military industrial complex used to subjugate minorities, and used to fight against american civilians. Look no further than the murders at Kent State. you are suggesting people join something that is used to murder peaceful protestors
