  1. Just had to wait until it became unprofitable to treat women like chattel for the slightest of objections to be heard
  2. Fascoanarchist is an oxymoron lol. Fascists want there to be a hierarchy and systems in place, just not ones based on laws or good jurisprudence. Anarchists want no system or hierarchy whatsoever
  3. the attorneys representing the business owners found some streetcam footage of the cop "dodging a dog"
  4. Sure is convenient for tesla that they've been allowed to kill and injure so many people in the name of progress while ignoring known flaws like failure to properly handle emergency vehicles.
  5. no, those homes would get bought up by private equity and hedge funds and rented back for 1.5-2x the monthly mortgage. Lmfao at thinking that families would be the beneficiary of literally anything in our financial system
  6. lulz are yall just reposting shit from the twitter replies on GRUhorn's tweets? I swear, there's a weird hivemind of rhetoric from the crypto space
  7. Inb4 the supreme court gives us another Calvinball ruling that finds that social security is actually unconstitutional
  8. Oh good, as long as we can rely on our benevolent oligarchs to fight for the wage earning class then there's nothing to worry about!
  9. It's not about babies or fetuses. It never has been. It's about putting women in their place and exerting power over them.
  10. You are grossly mischaracterizing Waymo's sensor fusion approach. Their long term strategy is to gain real world data across a ton of instruments to build an agent based driving model that is generalizable. And they use more than just LIDAR, since it turns out that fog and rain significantly degrade their visibility. You need more than just one set of inputs from the outside world to effectively drive. Tesla's approach will never work in anything less than a sterile environment
  11. is beardIP chrispy? It feels like he's using totally different rhetorical styles and arguments - I thought beard was a different poster
  12. Except for whenever markets fall, it's used as an excuse for layoffs which make it hard to justify saving up to reach that critical mass. Boomers and olds had the benefit of market and employment norms that provided significantly more stability and opportunity to take risks than current 20-40yo bracket.
  13. It's almost like republicans have completely dropped any pretense of their platform being pure culture war, or something. It's a good thing that republicans haven't totally coopted our justice system to rubber-stamp all of their shit
  14. You do know that we are currently, in the name of the Lord your God, forcing women to carry dead fetuses to sepsis and cause the mother permanent damage right? And those same christofascists are marching through the streets with torches chanting how the "Jews will not replace" them? And the chosen leader of the modern evangelical movement, Donald J Trump, is just deadass stealing lines from Hitler?
  15. Tubz is making big bets using stock derivatives, targeting American companies to go down in value a bunch. Like if a bunch of fuckwits shut down the government and make the markets take a dump
  16. Your fixation on something I've never done - directly source and cite my information from social media - really undercuts your point. Please, tell me what talking point I'm parroting, if they're so obvious. Or is this just you doing another "people are saying" bit? I can appreciate some actual factual shit talking, but you're simply lying through your teeth and acting like you're righteous. Incredibly aggy.
  17. The lack of grocery stores and places to buy fresh produce is absolutely part of the problem and what drives people to buy fast food as a primary option. Your act of playing okeydoke stupid oilfield man is old
  18. Grocery stores and food deserts aren't really the same convo as restaurants and service oriented food. But enjoy lying to yourself
  19. I think you are ignoring that the price increases have been driven by PE investment moving the housing market to be more expensive, at a rate far faster then inflation
  20. EaDo is pretty much the only cheap place left in Houston. There's not much affordable left in Midtown or Montrose - the shit box efficiency my wife rented in her 1L year has gone from $800/mo back in 2017 to $1450/mo. For a 750sqft efficiency that still has dog shit coin-op washing machines. Hell, the 2/1 we were renting in midtown before we bought our house has gone from $1650/mo to nearly $2500/mo. You should really look at rent prices
  21. The Almighty Free Market has spoken. "Fuck them poors" is the most succinct translation, but the longer version is that its not profitable to sell decent food in those areas, so they don't.
