Fahrenheit is based on human experience:
0° is fucking cold. 100° is fucking hot.
Celsius is based on at sea level water:
Water freezes at 0° and boils at 100°
A. Celsius is flawed because water freezes and boils at different temperatures depending on altitude.
B. When I ask what the temperature is, I’m asking for myself. I don’t give a fuck how water feels about the weather.
@GuyTalksFinance Don’t forget Condo Association Fees will most likely be an additional $800+ per month for a property like that. Not including additional special assessments that are highly likely to exist.
Kid just SMOKED a CNN reporter outside of Artemis II launch:
CNN: "Why do you want to be here?... Why do you love being a part of history?
Kid: "We're going back to the f*cking moon, that's why!" 🤣
@elonmusk Need a simple combustion engine truck V6/V8 that looks like an actual truck. Body on frame. Make it minimal yet sleek. Boxy/square 90’s style exterior with modern technology. 4x4 with room for the Offroad guys to modify suspension, etc… Would sell like hotcakes 🥞
The label reading evolution:
Week 1: "I'll just avoid obvious seed oils."
Week 2: "Why is soybean oil in bread?"
Week 3: "There's canola oil in mayonnaise too?"
Week 4: "This 'healthy' protein bar has three different seed oils."
Week 6: "I'm reading every ingredient list now."
Week 8: "I can't buy anything in a package."
Week 12: "I'm that person questioning the waiter about cooking oil."
Week 16: "I bring my own food to social events."
Week 24: "I'm considering raising my own cattle."
The descent into paranoia is just pattern recognition.
I was listening to Ron DeSantis talk about eliminating property tax in Florida, and at first I thought, “There’s no way that works.”
Then I heard the details…and it actually made a lot of sense.
The idea isn’t to eliminate property tax for everyone.
It would only apply to primary residences , people who live in Florida full-time.
Snowbirds who come for a few months? They still pay.
Businesses and commercial properties? They still pay.
But, if you own your home and live there permanently, no more yearly tax just to keep what you already own.
And honestly, why should you be taxed every year on something you’ve already paid for?
I saw this in Sweden, property taxes are extremely low, and people can actually stay in their homes for life instead of being forced out when taxes rise.
In the U.S., especially in high-tax states, retirees on fixed incomes often get priced out of their own homes. Some are paying tens of thousands a year just in property taxes.
DeSantis said only about 20% of Florida property is primary residences. The rest is businesses, commercial property, and part-time residents, which makes the numbers more manageable.
The big question is how local governments replace that revenue, especially in rural areas. He mentioned possible state-level revenue sharing.
Personally, I think it’s a really compelling idea, and politically, it’s going to get a lot of attention.
What do you think?
Should homeowners pay property tax forever on their primary residence, or once you own it, should it truly be yours?
Curious to hear different perspectives
@Lifeinvestmoney That they either have a shitty Realtor or Lender or both. Plenty of mortgage lenders can approve “entertainers” if the income is real.
