Eh, they didn’t say “plan to build 400,000 affordable housing units”, they said “plan for 400,000 units”. The plan involves building 200,000 units, and stabilizing 200,000 existing units. That’s not really a false headline.

I didn’t disagree with Harris’s flaws. But I think you might exist in a bubble, there are a lot of dumb people in the world. I consider you very lucky if you haven’t met a significant number of people who voted purely based on sex.
Do I think they’re the majority? Definitely not. But the number of people who don’t think about Palestine even a little bit is a lot higher than you think. So is the number who think “A woman can’t be president, she’ll be too emotional and other world leaders will walk all over us”. Like I said, there are a lot of dumb people in the world. Ignoring them doesn’t make them go away.


I did, I got distracted mid comment. I edited it.


You say that, but I personally know people who voted for Trump over Harris specifically because she was a woman. I personally know people who voted for Trump over Clinton for the exact same reason.
Don’t get me wrong, I’m fine with AOC myself and would vote for her, but to pretend that it’s a “non-issue” assumes that the average person doesn’t care. Many people do actually care, and ignoring the existence of those people is poor strategy. Maybe I’m overestimating the number of people who care, maybe not, but it is unfortunately a real concern that won’t magically go away by pretending people, as a whole, are more enlightened than that.


Maybe a tax rebate based on tread-wear of the damaged tire? If it still has 50% of the tread, you get a 50% rebate on your tire tax.


Consider yourself lucky.
I used them exactly one time. The driver brought the wrong food, the name and order weren’t even close.
Doordash refused to send a new driver, best they could offer was a credit for not even half the price. Even escalating customer service just got the credit converted to a refund, again for less than half of the charge. The rep could not explain to me what service I had received to justify keeping most of my money.


I saw an interview with the sculptor (not a supporter, just a guy paying his bills). He said the “cryptobros” who commissioned it kept telling him to make it thinner.


I wash one. I realize it’s the one I had popcorn in. I note I should clean that, too, later.
I think your friend had probably learned that if she just notes to clean it later, she will forget and it’ll never happen. I feel like there’s a sense of urgency you learn to develop, that the longer you wait between thinking of a task and completing the task, the more likely it is that the task will simply never get done, so you wind up jumping from task to task as you think of them.
That assumes a corporation can be convicted of a crime.
