Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I'm sorry, Jesse.
So pleased at your successful stuff reduction, msbelle!
I am very tired, but from doing fun stuff and getting exercise, so that's good. The evacuation situation near my house has lightened but the fire is still only 45% contained so I'm not sure if that changes anything for my peace or mind. Certainly not packing up and driving home tonight. We'll see what tomorrow morning brings.
Really, really depends. Need blocks and streets.
My cats like this [link] Problem, batteries. Good: lotsa times 🎃 dont need no batteries.
Jesse, I'm sorry about your dad. It's so hard.
I've also found almost 9 acres of land in Austin that we could easily build 30+ houses on. The land cost would be less than $50K per person and then we'd have to build the houses.
And they could be 3D printed Minka houses.
Jesse, I'm so sorry.
Cat toys are an excellent distraction.
sara, I added a link to a house. Wasbash on the Eastern border, Callaway on the Western.
Those Minka houses are cool, but $500K+ for 900 sqft? nah.
What are people's favorite sites for grabbing audio from a YouTube video? All of the ones I used to use no longer exist, and the artist doesn't have the song available on their site or Bandcamp.
Oh, I think that's Ashburton [link]
Don't know it well, just know nice big houses and that it's a place a lotta the rising upper and middle classes of black folk put down roots in 50s and 60s , leveraging what they could of blockbusting & white flight. Used to share a USPS, ran into former mayor a lot. Some pretty little neighborhoods tucked next to sadly abandoned former grand ones.
Baltimore is tough and merciless and demanding.
Also (and I've just heard this said, so take with a grain of salt) is that the primary issue facing it is the aging population and not a lot of replacing generations to keep it up. Lakeside, my sister community, compares itself a lot to Ashburton (the AfAm middle class community established itself there because proximity to Morgan) and one of the big tensions is between older homeowners and crappy landlords who come in as older established residents move out/die. Being Morgan is so close, turns into college housing and a whole other ball of fusses.
