@iCyclone Hope you're well, man! There is lots of good energy being sent to that island.
I remember during Dorian when you went silent for a while cause of connectivity issues. Lots of folks are gonna worry, but they just be patient - you're tough!
@voxdotcom I demanded different treatment on my 3rd IUD. They listened and gave me meds to calm me ahead of time and a cervical block. Made a huge difference!
@3thanpublic Me! This Floridian keeps it at 78ยฐ! And we sleep, cozy under covers, in our block home, at 73ยฐ.
Yes, acclimating to your climate is part, but for me, who lives in a bowl of microwaved soup for 3 months each year, there's no comparison. Their "heat wave" is our "nice day."
@larryboston1236@llbjthegreat@mean_toe@RossKneeDeep The leases are long because the banks who finance the properties want the owner to show verifiable rent income for their loan structures.
I'm an admin and prop manager. It costs more to occupy, period. WFH reduces operating costs, utilities, and staff liabilities overall.
@Scott_Maxwell Yes the convention meeting market is dying, and fast. People realized during lockdowns that all the cost wasn't needed to reach their base. The freight carriers and exhibitors have been talking about this issue.
@AmoneyResists As someone who works for a company that imports parts from China to assemble our machines here...
It amazes me how little people understand about who pays this, and ultimately, who carries that cost. People spout off think-pieces like this hasn't been being done for decades. ๐
@AndyStumpf77@maddenifico Wrong. My 73 yo Dad knew not to vote for a facist, but my Gen X and Millennial relatives didn't? After everything 45 himself said?
Nah, this is misdirected hostility and a refusal to learn. I can no longer abide willful ignorance when it has direct consequences for my child.
@maddenifico Yeah, I'm having a hard time thinking about working my ass off creating a nourishing meal for people who literally voted against mine and my daughter's rights.
I am tired of tolerating intolerance.
