Lying is bad.
inclusionary zoning, density bonuses, are forms of slopulism. Programs that hide the cost because noöne since Reagan actually believes that government can add value.

Clavicular was 14 when the 2010s ended

Let the priests marry

only good use case for popups

How could this possibly be a problem though? You need like 1 Jefferson County, pop 298, in each time zone that does allow data centers

Gork, what is tit-for-tat with forgiveness?

In the world of the liquor cabinet, the dry drunk is President

Also how some states have had pretty good results ( CO, WA, NV, etc.) and some are dumpsterfires (CA, NY)

And noöne has authorized public consumption "weed bars"

How's that working out?

OK but it being 85° is like the opposite of an excuse for the lack of man cleavage in that costume

A corollary to "a liberal is he who won't take his own side in an argument" is "a liberal won't accept solidarity from imperfect allies"

I'm not saying we should welcome Chappelle back, but if things were reversed, chuds would be lauding him, and that lack of principle is a great strength.

(PPPssst, the Marshmallow test isn't about self-control, it's about trust in authority and hope for the future. They've redone the test a few times, and proven children whose parents lie will take the mallow now instead of waiting, b/c they do not believe they will get two later.)

Today in "poor time series analysis caused by inflated sample size"

Very autist-coded to have to invent Chesterton's fence from lived experience. And ironic to realize the need for it while playing footsie with right wing ideas

I think there is a nice virtuous cycle we could hit once imitation beef becomes cheaper than cow (the taste is like 95% there already. 50+% of beef is eaten ground, a lot from low-value cuts. If price conscious J Wellington Wimpys switch to synthetic, steaks get more expensive.

First one is very true when comparing against east & SE Asia, not just EU.

It will mostly be better? Impossible burgers are already near parity with cow burgers. Biking is nicer than driving if your city is designed for it, unless you highly value being obnoxious.

Never accept allies who don't agree with you on everything.

Do all Cava restaurants undercook their lentils? The one near me has been doing this for months.

But linguistic silliness is fun. I wish we had more of it.

OK but buybacks are equivalent except for having preferential tax treatment.

I hope he get to experience 6000 people directly reporting to him. lmao.

With how much slush fund money is being embezzled by this admin, and how every event is being front-run, I wonder if this is some sort of market manipulation to keep Trump happy?

Casinos are like the shittiest video game arcade you've ever been in.

Sports betting on your phone seems like the shitty/expensive version of candy crush.

Theory of mind for this is absolutely beyond me

Predicted change in EVs after next census: NIMBYs send population to red states edition

Just in time for this:

Well aside from the financial subsidies (leverage, tax benefits), a big reason is locking in a monthly payment. When you rent, you're at risk of rent going up, especially long-term. Event rent control only protects your current unit cost. If RE was a freer market, this would be less important.

The world is rich and full of colors. Other people contain multitudes. Mentally turning everyone into a quality-controlled industrial product just so you can route half of them into the 'hateworthy' bin is very depressing.

OK but burgers and barbeque are different things

ADHD sometimes just feels like the disease of "your inner child responds to beating with tantrums instead of with obedience". Like I read about people who worry that less anxiety will make them less productive, and I am just jealous their anxiety is so useful!

UBI-type policies are essential to facilitate low-paying valuable work. Pink collar industries, academic "photograph every moose beetle in the county", art, basement engineer hacking: they are social positive, fulfilling, and fix the idle-hands problem. How people pass time in Utopia.
