How has this still not made a meaningful impact. Office rental prices have even held steady. How long can CRE hold on and absorb losses?

The biggest shift in my politics is that I just allowed myself to accept in the Ezra Klein "we don't have to wait for racists to literally say 'I am a racist' to know they're racists" sense that Democrats are anti-white. Everything follows from that. Policy almost doesn't matter.

All that money will go to NGOs to pay salaries and other expenses instead of going to those in need. Here is the truth about homlessness in California. It's a for profit industry because if homlessness was actually solved the NGO's would no longer exist and they can't have that. It's sad, inhumane and @GavinNewsom is 100% responsible for it. @GovPressOffice

I think of myself as someone with a wide mental library & a brain good at making inobvious connections, but every time this guy posts I'm just in awe

[skeleton @ThinkingBone]

accidentally used my rationalist personality with my leftist friends and got hit with that water usage stare

This is like finding another angle of 9/11

They're calling it the most natural photo at a baseball game in history.

@voidpires This is the core of it. People who commit to being “on time” are always early. That’s the only way you can pretty much guarantee you’ll be there. The “idk why I’m always late” people think everything just lines up for others, not that they plan ahead to show up early.

She has 5 stars in JIRA. Virtually unheard of. Most employees are lucky to reach 3 stars.

It's not simply that JPMorgan, a legacy corporation with the highest standards, hired an obese Latina who should have been collecting welfare (or garbage) to be their DEI executive and paid her ~300k a year for the privilege, only to be forced to fire her later when they were humiliated by a viral video

It's that women like this are everywhere. They are administrators, judges, heads of state. They running western society. You have to understand this in order to understand anything else.

[Fugitive Caesar @ThomBrady5]

yes, it's administrative bloat.

The fact opening a little shop is prohibitively expensive in the United States is an abject policy failure. In Japan, there are thousands of amazing, highly rated four seat restaurants, tailors, quirky little stationary stores etc.

Our zoning is killing joy and dreams.

[The Governor @adorablegov]

You can be on time. You absolutely can. You can learn. Perpetual lateness is a choice and you deserve scorn and derision if you don’t get it under control.

[defend children @poopswag34]

It’s so funny that the stereotypical Simpsons comic book nerd character has completely disappeared from society while the number of trans people has exploded and no one is allowed to say why this happened lol

[Western Exile @westernexile]

Maturing is realising that absolutely nothing of substance is happening here.

A false pressure valve is being released, to reset public anger so as to buy additional years of time to implement an agenda that was decided long ago, elsewhere. The frontman is utterly expendable.

[wanye @xwanyex]

I like following good rules, rules that I think are fair. I’d like to think I’m fairly conscientious. I have no interest in cheating the system, even if I could profit from it.

All of this is just to say that I am the kind of guy who in normal times would pay a medical bill without ever thinking twice about it. Why would I not pay a medical bill? They provided a service. Now the bill is due. Of course I would pay it.

And yet I have caught myself thinking many times this year — one in which my wife had a baby and the bills keep trickling in — why shouldn’t I just not pay some of these? After all, lots of people very clearly aren’t. And it seems to be the case that you can do it without consequence. They almost never show up on your credit report, anymore. And lots of people knowing this have decided to simply not pay.

So why not me? Why should I pay? Why am I the sucker? Am I the only idiot doing the right thing?

The fact that I am now thinking this when I never would have before is just about the most predictable thing imaginable. This is how people respond to these kinds of incentives. It’s actually not mysterious. There is a huge cultural push against landlords. The culture is telling these people over and over again that they are victims. It would only be surprising if this discourse had no impact at all on collections.

[Darth Powell @VladTheInflator]

Say that again..... slowly......

[Maw @TheEbonyMaw]

The thought process of people like John C. Reilly goes like this:

- I have beliefs.
-My beliefs are empathetic.
-Empathy is the ultimate good.
-If your beliefs contradict mine, you must lack empathy.
-You are therefore evil.

And so they weaponize the word empathy to mark their opponents as evil, despite the fact that their beliefs are almost always shortsighted, contradictory, self-serving, and even vile at times.

That’s why most of us think “empathy” is a trap.

[Dash R Period (-R.)  @dash_r_media]

Empathy means JCR would be able to articulate my views to me in a way that I would approve of

This is almost the exact opposite of empathy

Imagine you have a dog. He is a very bad dog. He jumps on people, he growls at toddlers, he bites other dogs. If you leave him home alone, he wrecks your house. He’s just a dog, you have all the power, but your entire life is now bending around his behavior problems.
