It’s $7200 for the 4 week season at La Junta, and that’s before the trunk, getting there, $150 at the camp store, paying for photos, etc. From what I’ve seen, Mystic and Waldemar are a little more. So about $15k for two kids-that’s a month traveling abroad on a family vacation to pretty much anywhere else in the world.

I’d be happy to move over by the Broadmoor and the houses are way bigger than what the same money buys in Austin. What didn’t she like about it? -
WTF, this is supposed to be the turn for Walter to have a quality start.

Funny, I had this same complaint with Guardians of the Galaxy 3-it would have played better giving a few of the scenes just a beat or two more to breath.

Eh, I tend to give most elected officials the benefit of the doubt in regards to the weird chemistry of reflecting the electorates wishes but also trying to lead them. Incumbent Dems are probably not trying to be naive, but rather there’s been several pre-2025 cycles of polling reinforcing the idea that most of their electorate prefers them to be sensible, bipartisan when appropriate, and to use the institutions to solve problems. I’m also not sure what norms the electorate is insisting that Democrats break? More grandstanding on the House floor? Having zero power at the moment besides a limited ability to draw attention is about all they can do. I know some of you lefties believe there’s some conspiracy at the party level preventing this, but if the Democrats want to get more attention, they should probably focus on getting better (I.e., younger) messengers. And that’s also on the voters.

Real estate prices in top 50 metros
LCHorn replied to Im_smarter_then_you's topic in Business and Markets
This might be better placed on the real estate/mortgage thread, but I've got multiple prospective buyers terminating their searches due to employment anxiety and agents I work with are telling me they are seeing it, too. Having lived through multiple bust cycles in real estate previously, this, not interest rates, is usually where things start to get shitty. -
Texas Recruiting Notes 2026: Boulevard of Broken Bagmen
LCHorn replied to texifornia's topic in 🤫$9.95🤫
This is a really good point and ties into ideas better expressed in Daily Texan or CR, but I think culturally we’ve turned away from punishing people or institutions that make exaggerated promises (or lies), and this is a problem most deeply felt by the younger generations raised in a social media environment in which there is zero accountability for fabrication (in fact, the algorithms encourage it). It’s a nihilism that leads someone like a Bowman or a Lott to perhaps think “all of the schools are bullshitting me, but I’m going to take a chance on the one with the highest $&$ promised.” -

Gerry intimated that there was $400k less in commitments coming from the Texas side. I guess I’m in the minority, but I particularly don’t want to judge athletes who know well their earning potential (as an athlete) is one injury away from $0. -

I don't think Fong is ill-intentioned, but I think we're seeing the maturation of "highest bidder wins" with top players and I think he's probably a little surprised that Texas is showing this degree of restraint coming off two CFP appearances. Probably more useful as the players we'll circle back to in November depending on how much might be available. -
I don't care about Kosinski specifically, but I do care greatly about maintaining the solvency of the theatrical business. There's something special about watching a film in the dark and in the company of strangers that's far superior to streaming,but you have to get off your ass to be elevated by it.

Awesome, thank you both, @crash_davis and @Damor Yes, we've got an AirBnB that looks like it's close to the corner of J and 1st and advertises itself as a couple of blocks from downtown (we'll see, that might be realtor talk like "Round Rock is just minutes from downtown Austin." I really wanted to stay in the Surf Hotel but their weekends were booked out for weddings. -

We’re leaving Thursday for two weeks in Salida if you have any recs. Kids are smaller (8, 6) if that helps. -
As long as we’re talking Oakland, I had my luggage stolen from my hosts car while we ate at Burmese superstar. It was a work trip so I ended up wearing the same clothes for three days.
