If you need to put a qualifier in front of "friend," I agree.

If a co-worker was someone you hung out with outside of work as well, you'd just call them a friend.

If you include townhouses and condos as "houses," then sure. Not necessarily in any given neighborhood, but every city should have affordable housing options for gainfully employed people to afford homes even if small.

I'm a big proponent of shotgun house neighborhoods being constructed for this purpose.

TopicWhy did Bernie lose twice?
K181
04/26/24 11:16:26 AM
#40
Bernie is well-intentioned, but the thing he and his team never seemed to grasp is that the Democratic Party is actually popular among reliable Democratic primary voters.

So when he, as an otherwise independent, stepped in basically attacking the party as too conservative and downplaying the party's past accomplishments, he turned off loads and loads of Dem establishment figures and diehard yellow dog Dem voters.

Couple that with a strategy that seemed to be predicated on a) the center remaining splintered throughout the primary process and b) every anti-Hillary vote he received in 2016 staying by his side in 2020, and you have a fundamentally flawed strategy. All it took was a few figures to back Biden, and Bernie's chances completely evaporated.

TopicIn The Last Jedi, did Luke ACTUALLY try to (spoilers)
K181
04/25/24 12:57:09 PM
#9
No, and people that think otherwise clearly had stopped paying attention because Luke specifically explained later that he wasn't going to. He basically had force spider senses, detected such an ominous presence around his nephew that he drew his saber without thinking but caught himself from actually doing anything, but in that process Ben saw a drawn lightsaber and jumped to a sensible conclusion from his perspective.

That event was specifically and directly explained how it made sense for both Luke to hate how he had reacted while still never intending to do harm and for Ben to think his uncle was about to murder him, and people still missed either or both.

Even if you think that Biden's presidency is akin to being punched in the dick, if your only viable options are that or being shot in the dick repeatedly, you're just asking to get shot in the dick if you leave it up entirely for others to decide.

Of course, in the sense that nobodys owed votes.

But to be clear, if you vote against Biden because of a reason where Trump is objectively worse on something that you care about then you dont really have a leg to stand on if Trump wins and things get objectively shittier for you and/or your cause. Thats the equivalent of shooting yourself in the foot to remove a mole.

There is pretty widespread historical consensus that a Jesus figure did exist that Christianity was based off of, and with that in mind there's a good probability that the historical Jesus was crucified, given it being a common form of Roman capital punishment.

Now, how much of the biblical event occurred? Nobody fucking knows. Maybe mostly legend.

Bananas are the best when they're ripe, but for me the window for when they're great versus beforehand when they're meh and after when they're abound in brown splotches galore has to take them down a peg or two.

I'm thinking that they have maybe a 36 hour window where they're the best.

Granted, a major positive is that bananas that are past their prime can be used for banana bread.
