I recently moved into a non-HOA neighborhood in Southeast Portland. We have several lots that have broken down equipment, vehicles, etc... It's pretty unsightly to the extent that my guy can't even use his driveway. None of what

First, I'd find someone to walk through the valleys you're in with you. Conventional talk therapy is good for that. If you're wanting to change habits in your life then find a therapist who can also do CBT. My only advice aro

My takeaway is that: - Some places don't need buildings or roads. The intersection of rich people and wildlife habitats is interesting. - If there must be roads, like highways, we should study ways to get wildlife under or over them. I

ah, that's fair. I generally have no sense of what constitutes organic vs deliberate or if there's even standards for this stuff.

The history is preserved through the archive though, no? Wouldn't compaction be the logical result over time? In my head I'm thinking that old events probably used to have surpluses of books and editorials written about them that

I can't begin to understand what the perspective of someone who holds value in their head for NFTs is. Are they grifters themselves in an Amway kind of deal? Is there some actual use that I'm just totally missing?

As I said earlier, from our perspective at this moment with the facts we have today they're not the same. I also said Jeff is a master at the long game and nothing he does is for charity. WaPo has some kind of purpose, so if this is

The curious thing is that I've lived in two places now where I see two competing takes: crime is lower than it ever has been, and crime is much more visible to the average person. It always forks into these kinds of discussions where f

No, I don't, because at this moment in time it seems insignificant. But, I've said that before and been wrong. OP called it rich. It's a fair criticism - because it is rich even if true. These things are not mutually exclus

Ignore the incentives and marvel at the output sounds dangerous and irresponsible. Maybe it's tiresome to you and that's okay - not everyone has the emotional bandwidth or energy to care about everything. There are a good number o

They could've done the easier, and more correct, thing and just abolished HOAs. Very few people with good intentions want these around.

I didn't need the size a Tundra has but I do need to be able to haul a trailer or things in the bed. The Taco 4x4 off-road also comes with a nifty electrical system which I plan to use at multi-day festivals.

$850 for a domain is quite outrageous. Directing that outrage to the right places is a challenge in discipline. Working on frameworks to help people dissect something logically when they discover something outrageous would probably be the m

The new car market is also probably contributing. I just bought a house and sold my hybrid for a Tacoma. I walked into a dealership lot to buy a '20 with 40k miles on it. I left with a brand new Tacoma with zero miles and a better pack
