Its way more important to have affordable housing than over regulations on what if scenarios. Which were probably passed in the first way to keep supply of homes low. True.

emblem-man 05/04/24 11:27:23 AM #1 | How are you doing so far with just 3 game weeks left?
I started the week at a rank or 14k, which is my highest ever so I'm pretty stoked to be honest. Let's see if I can keep this going. Context: FPL is the English premier League fantasy game for soccer/football. The main fpl game is a bit different than fantasy football. Mainly, there's no draft and you're not really going head to head against other people each week. It's more about a contest on who gets the most points. You start with 100million and you buy the players you want. Player prices increase/decrease each day depending on things like how many people transfer them in/out. Anyway, while there are over 10 million registered players, I doubt even half are active players. The season is from August till May. Many people get bored, angry, lose hope, etc. and quite before the end. --- http://avatar.xboxlive.com/avatar/emblem%20boy/avatar-body.png haters gonna hate |

emblem-man 05/03/24 11:24:05 AM #6 | One thing that he's done that people won't like, but that has objectively helped...he's drilled drilled drilled.
With the Russia situation, being less dependent on Russia and middle east countries for energy, while being able to help out European allies is a good thing. And with how both the left and the right have shown their great dislike for inflation, having the Russia war cause higher inflation due to supply issues would have been horrible. And while we did increase fossil fuels production short term, we've also made huge investments into renewable energy that will allow us to transition much more easily. The amount of solar, battery, and wind being built is huge and it will only increase as all these new manufacturing plants finish being built and ramp up production. States like California already have days where their daytime energy usage is supplied by only renewable, with batteries supplying power at night. https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/5/55cc05ce.jpg In fact, Biden did one other thing to help bring down inflation: He increased oil production. Although he came into office expecting to curb fracking in the name of the climate, the Ukraine war prompted an about-face. Biden opened up drilling, and the U.S. now produces more oil than any country ever has in the history of the world. GrandConjuraton posted...

Austin city council just passed a resolution directing staff to look at single-stair reform as a part of their 2024 building code update! Single stair apartments are illegal in most.US cities, with most places requiring dual stairs. Think of your average large apartment complex or hotel, how it's usually one single corridor with rooms on both sides and a stairway at both ends. A single stair though basically reduces the amount of circulation space required in a multi-unit building, allowing for more living space as well as better floor plans, better light, better architecture in general. Think of many of those European style apartments you've seen, most are probably single-stair that is illegal to build here. Many peoples first thought is "that seems unsafe", but nothing really points to that being true. https://ggwash.org/view/93257/how-single-stair-apartments-can-improve-fire-safety?

First thank you for the long post. It took time to write that and I don't want to discount it. However you really didn't say how they should protest. Like specially what should they do. Remember a school canceled commencement because there was going to be a pro-Pal speech. I'm fine with how they're protecting now tbh, but I would encourage tighter message discipline in regards to chants and signs, keeping the protest in the outdoor quad space. Just, don't make it easy for the right wing. Don't mistake my criticism for disagreement with the overall protest. I just end up thinking there's like, low hanging fruit in regards to things that could be done better. But I see how my posts can sound like constant finger pointing and I apologize for that, but it's mainly me doing armchair quarterbacking. --- http://avatar.xboxlive.com/avatar/emblem%20boy/avatar-body.png haters gonna hate |

How should they protest, what you make you guys happy. Again this reminds me of when Republicans complained about black man taking a knee. People should protest all they want. It's good to protest. It's probably ideal to protest in a manner that doesn't involve vandalism, trespassing, breaking windows, shutting down campuses, forcing the cancellation of classes. I think they should protest in a method that has insane message discipline that minimizes the chance of others making the protest look bad. I read that one of the schools had a media liaison that they'd point media towards. That's an awesome idea and allows the movement to have tight message discipline so that random protestors don't say something stupid unwittingly. You'll still have media sources use that as a way of painting the protest in a bad light, for example some then said that the protestors not speaking showed how scared they were or something. But that's a stupid criticism. People will always criticize a protest, but that doesn't mean you throw your hands up and just do anything. The general populace is full of idiots who don't like rowdiness. I think protests should be done with that in mind. Maybe I'm just incredibly pessimistic But as I said before, I don't even think most people like protests in general. Their support of a protest depends solely on if they approve of the cause. If they do, they'll give large leeway to the negatives and if they don't, they'll want it shutdown regardless. Anyway, I'm just saying. If you break into a building, I don't get why you'd act all surprised if someone says you're engaging in vandalism. --- http://avatar.xboxlive.com/avatar/emblem%20boy/avatar-body.png haters gonna hate |

None of those things are violent. They aren't peaceful protests methods. For example vandalism is not a peaceful protests method.

I don't like it, but I think the most likely outcome of this situation is Israel taking the land by force and creating a "one state solution." At best, this one state grants Palestinians full civil rights, but they would likely assimilated into Israeli culture in the not so distant future (thereby "wiping out" the Palestinians). But given Israel's current views and attitudes towards Palestine, I imagine it's much more likely that this one state will end up as more of an Apartheid state where the Palestinians are treated as second class citizens (or worse...)
