    If you're flying out of AUS on any Monday or Thursday, you better get your ass to the airport early. And you better be wearing your corporate logo swag and bringing your two pieces of Tumi luggage, too.

    Briggs & Riley, you savage.

    I forget if Fort Collins has been mentioned on this thread. I don't know much about it, but it appears to have solid schools, is affordable-ish, and close to RMNP and ski areas. I'm sure wildfires and future water supply could be a concern. Raising a family and getting outdoors being my primary requirements, as mentioned upthread. Anybody spent time there?

    Keep quiet.

    That's where we are headed in 6 years when Lil' Brown graduates.  We also have 3 sets of friends who've also independently zeroed in on Fort Collins for the same timeframe.

    Get an Airbnb for a week or two in the dead of winter and tell the owner you want to do all the snow removal during your stay.  That will help you decide if you want to live that for 3 or more months a year.

    Or you could just not be a savage and pay a service to clean your driveway and sidewalks for you.  

     

     

  5. We should start a company to grift these death camps. Surly Death and Internment Camps. Surly DIC if you will.  Just go all in on the business proposal.  Offer camp stays for $420/day, bread and mayonnaise sandwich meals at $69/each, and prison labor for the agricultural and construction industries.  Just put it all out there publicly.  Either it shames them into abandoning the idea or we get a few billion dollars in grift.

    rearrange it some, add some color because ai on their end will scan to determine if you used ai 

    I use Claude AI to check grammar, organization, and clarity. It’s a great tool and using it that way, AI doesn’t write it but it makes the essays much better.
  7.  Anybody else mentally fucking done with all the scholarship applications?  At my kid's top choice, the general scholarship app has 6 essay questions.  Then the college of engineering's scholarship app had another 3 essay questions.  But, you gotta hedge your bets and fill out the scholarship apps at some other schools too...I've (I mean she) has written like 20+ essays at this point. Holy fuck it's a process.  I was surprised when the scholarship administrator at her first choice said that many scholarships have zero applicants. Now I know why. It's a pain in the ass...and we haven't even touched the FAFSA yet which every school requires you submit even though I know she won't qualify for any income based aid.

  8. How do you win elections without abandoning the most vulnerable populations?  Openly supporting these social causes is now a proven loser.  So, your choices are 1) to abandon those causes, 2) use deception, 3) put all of the focus on the economic issues and ignore everything else during campaigns.

    #3. Americans will shrug their shoulders and accept ANY policy you implement as long as their perception of the economy is good. Run on the economy and then implement anything you want.
