Adjusted for inflation, median rents in Austin the 70’s were about $700/mo. I think that’s close to our floor.

Make sure to plant only potatoes, and only one variety so you can maximize production on your land.

Single-stair has been an easier sell in Austin than we thought it would be.

I want to buy this company’s stock

At least they’re clear eyed about who they are losing to.

People don’t know what the government does.

But they sure do have opinions about it 😑

That means you’re scrubbing toilets, private.

Zoning restrictions and NIMBYism at the north pole have jacked housing prices up so much that they’re moving to Svalbard to work as fishermen.

You’re never making it to the bridge, lifelong SR-E1

Organized labor insists upon touching the stove to see if it’s really hot.

Prepare for a learning experience, America.

What hilarious about this statement is that probably 5% of America has any idea about your Cheney/Harris thing lol.

Meanwhile, building powerlines and homes will have 1000x the quality of life impacts of whatever your impossible pet policy probably is, even if a few natgas plants get built, too.

It sounds like you already did the thing

Is that the whole article?

Coast guard doesn’t just attack things because they don’t know what it is.

Imagine how vibrant and exciting the economy could be if “housing” and “other” traded spaces.

That’s why student coops are some of the only SROs in Austin.

Nobody makes $1B in income. Wealth over $1B is almost all assets that grow, not checks that arrive.

This isn’t controversial, it fundamentally misunderstands the nature and mechanics of wealth.

Your proposal will raise exactly $0.

Unironically, yes.

Syrian rebels have loose ties to ISIS, and they just overthrew the government. Targeting the military capabilities of ISIS helps give room to pro-democratic forces to have an opportunity for power in the current vaccuum.

I think it's "Group residential"
December 8, 2024 at 11:00 PM
lol, yes, I guess for a minute I forgot that passed.

Explicitly disallowed in all SF zoned areas, Conditional Use Permit usually required in CBD, TOD and others. Parking requirements are stringent, one space per BR.

The only way to get more is to make them explicitly allowed by right on any lot over X sq ft and eliminate parking requirements.

Just shows how much people vote on aesthetics and tribalism, not policy.
December 8, 2024 at 10:01 PM
Elitism complaints are about language, affect, and aesthetics.

Not money.

You can flag playlists as not contributing to the algo. Not sure if that removes them from Wrapped.
