Yeah the first time I tried Brave it the a bunch of ads for their services - and asking about providing info to their partners - at me constantly. I don't understand why people use that PoS

-force -recursive but I like the way you think

Except that rising interest has also fucked up the market for builders who are now producing even less houses

There are three reasons that "good landlords" seem to be scarce:

• People tend to be more vocal about bad experiences than good, so we'll definitely hear more about the bad ones
• Many people decided to become a landlord because it outpaced other "investments" greatly, especially if you're a shitty landlord who doesn't put profit back into maintaining said "investment"
• Many of the good landlords that did exist and weren't gouging eventually got hit with a bad tenant that cost them a lot of suffering and $$$ while being extremely difficult to evict. Whether it's true or not, I still hear current ones who say they're charging [crazy amount] to pad for the eventual $20k bill when a bad tenant wrecks their place (and these days it's not hard to do $20k+ in damage)

Also per the comic: I've never heard of anyone tipping a landlord, good or bad

Yeah as soon as you go with the term "Zionist" that pretty much gives away your agenda, bud.

And? If I blow up somebody's house and family with a $1,000,000 missile while they blow up mine with $150 worth of explosives, does that make one side more right?

No, both side are cooking in hatred. The bigger question isn't "who has the better ability to kill the other side" but rather "who has the better ability to break the cycle, and what can they do towards such means"

How much do they actually expect these to cost? How about they cancel fireworks at the next sports event. That'd probably cover it

I'd say the condom thing is also because it raises the risk level considerably, not just because it was dishonest. It's not just the act they didn't consent to but the risk of unnoticed m unprotected sex.

BUT, by that token the risk level of having your sex-acts put on the internet for potential millions to see - including family members, potential employers, etc - is still considerable. It can ruin lives in different but still very significant ways.

These scum deserve to be stuffed in a cell.

Been there, uh, didn't do that because it's fucking creepy. Also no hitting or calling me "daddy", which is super creepy IMO

Except that it looks pretty much exactly like the picture on Amazon and ain't no custom job with real hardwood.

Yeah the ones doing the oppression are those most likely to resort to violence

Pretty, vindictive, partisan power-grabbing shit. The interim speaker shouldn't even be able to do that

And this is belittling then, how?

More about analysing the thinking that led to the situation. In most cases it's things that they know or were told not to do but guy caught up in the moment

Yeah, I think an important thing parents need to do (apart from tearing down their kids for no reason) is differentiate DOING something dumb versus BEING dumb.

A comment my dad made long ago when I was young kinda stuck with me "For a kid who's really smart you sure do some really dumb shit sometimes"

I've tried to phrase things like that to my kids, not "you dumbass why did you do that?" but more along "you're smart enough to know you shouldn't do that, so why did you?"

Why the fuck would they want Mexico? I think Canada probably has more to worry about, especially as water becomes more scarce

We kinda do though, we just don't often see them as having magnets but most electric motors work on principles of magnetism.

One of my neighbors threw a neighborhood BBQ. Free invite with burgers and dogs, BYOD. Seemed to draw quite a few people

More that the nature of the indoors location had an increased likelihood of hitting a innocent bystander.

Maybe you're more justified in somebody if it's a 2-on-1 situation and you feel like your life is threatened, but pull out a gun and start blasting and you also put the lives of anyone within a certain distance around your target in danger.

Given the lack of apparent weapons on the "assailants", drawing on them might have been sufficient to disengage and assess without actually needing to fire the weapon at all

I've picked up a ton of their free games. I've yet to actually install their client and actually play one
