These asshole Republicans convince people that the money is there, it's just being wasted by the Democrats. But the truth is, the money isn't there! San Diego never brings in enough revenue. The good years are the years the City gets loads of State and federal money.
And now he's out there lobbying for free parking everywhere and a ballot measure to do away with the trash pick-up fee now that the richest San Diegans have to pay for this service, too.
I was thinking lately that Kevin Faulconer was so lucky to be mayor during a drought. He could redirect funds for storm water facility maintenence to other priorities like road-resurfacing and never had to face the ill effects of those choices.
Also, I thought Tom Hanks' character was so funny when I was a kid, and now, I'm like JAIL
A League of Their Own. As a tween, I HATED Kit and was appalled that Dottie didn't get the win. This is DEFINITELY how my tween/young teen kids felt when we watched it a couple months ago. Now (40s), Kit is my favorite character BY FAR.
I really think that's why so many people latched onto Patrick Nash. We were supposed to see him as slimy and underhanded, but like he ADORES her!
And you could contrast the Duke's behavior with pretty much every other male character in the show!
He was SO AWFUL from the get-go! They obviously tried to soften the character throughout his time on the show, but I was like, this is the guy who acted like it was an inconvenience to do ANYTHING to help the orphaned daughter of the man who basically gave him his current life!!
I just glanced at this at first and thought it said, "Riding in a golf cart fartly." Which I kinda love even more tbh
I'm not going to say Harper is singlehandedly responsible for Trump's victory, but this *is* the phenomenon that resulted in so many Americans having no idea what they voted for.
Across mainstream media, pundits refused to draw a clear distinction between Ds & Rs and lay out Trump's agenda.
This War Will Destabilize The Entire Mideast Region And Set Off A Global Shockwave Of Anti-Americanism vs. No It Won’t
But don't you want hundreds of pages of hobbit lore in your adventure story?
I honestly think this is THE worst intersection in SD. There are so many pedestrians that want to cross there -- honestly about 50% of the time should just be all way pedestrian crossing.
Like, I think the division between "good at math" and "bad at math" was basically, who can still do well even though the methods being taught are awful? And because of these bad experiences, there's a reluctance to dive into how the kids are learning now. (Mine are 14, 11, and 8)
I've been reading this thread, wondering if this would come up. A couple weeks ago, at my TV Club, I was defending the "new math" and my real thinking was that my generation's (I'm 43) math education was so bad that it turned off a ton of people from math education writ large.
Recently, I was thinking now would be perfect for a Mansfield Park adaptation -- Tom Bertram as a failson to a PE baron, Henry Crawford as a crytocurrency scammer, etc... and it made me think that a lot of current adaptations do replace "romantic" relationships with business partnerships...
This always really bugged me about the Duke
I'm gonna stop you right there. Gen Z doesn't golf.
I had a FIT for 6 years and LOVED it. I had to size up in 2017 when I was expecting my 3rd, so I got a Mazda 5 (the "microvan") because it seemed like a slightly larger FIT.
The “prosecute the former regime at every level” candidate has my vote in 2028.
Hmmm. I can see the logic in that... it's like Hugh Grant as Edward Ferrars.
I was thinking about this more while getting ready for work, and I think the true issue with Andrew Garfield is that he's got too much rizz (as the kids say). He's more of a Henry Crawford.
Yeah--I think he's gotta be swole, or at least swole-adjacent. I think Andrew Garfield is just too slight. Makes me think of my sisters and my reaction to the Greta Gerwig Little Women. Christian Bale Laurie WOULD. Timothee Chalamet Laurie PASS.
Our biggest hurdle was age. We kept coming up with hot dudes in upper 30s through 40s... like we were really big on Henry Cavill, but he's just too old. But maybe the new Superman... 🤔
I was discussing Smokeshow Eddie B with a couple of friends a little while back and we thought Tom Blyth.
There's the subtle economics of the marriage market throughout all of her work and especially well- discussed in the Charlotte Lucas story arc. And there's the more explicit stuff like the discussion on annuities at the beginning of S&S.
I've thought this about Jane Austen and economics.
The City responded to all comments received (including from SOA). The opinion pooh-poohs the City's detailed initial study and seems to imply the City should have reran all technical studies again, but with "buildings taller than 30 ft" toggled on. But that's not a thing! The 2018 analysis was fine!
Pretty sure some clerk asked ChatGPT for environmental impacts of tall buildings and that's how they came to be included in the appellate court opinion. ChatGPT always obliges.
