People in suburbs often do have the room for a home office though. And if you prefer to go to an office, it’s probably to work with your coworkers. No chance they want to drive to your suburb.
The people in the city that live in a 1-2 BR apartment definitely don’t have room for home offices.
The real problem for wework is it’s an insanely easy model for LLs to copy and disintermediate them. If it were worthwhile business.
It’s much too expensive at any scale - and subscale, well, people outgrow it.
That’s not quite right. Preexisting assets kept separately don’t just become marital assets. If you owned a home prior to the marriage and you then live there together, it almost certainly would be considered a marital property.
But certainly every dollar you make or asset you acquire while married counts.
People lying about the underlying assets the stock represents? People cooking their books? Pump and dump scams? Receiving multiple lines of credit against the same assets?
What forms of fraud are solved by tokenization or digital attestation that are prevalent today?
If it’s intentional by the voter it’s not a problem.
If it’s because the ballots are confusing, or the process is, it isn’t fine. They’re being partially disenfranchised- their ballot will have less power than someone who understood the process.
We have RCV in NY for primaries. Understanding the implications of how the order matters and gets counted isn’t super easy. There are definitely going to be unintended consequences for RCV.
The person I replied to answered a tactical question, which was rephrased “ok, it’s not enough, what do we need to do and why, and for who?” Ie “I am a man who lives with and loves a man who can’t get health insurance because the state doesn’t recognize our relationship.”
With something that basically said “see us, acknowledge our needs” without specifying who “us” are and what those needs are.
You can’t galvanize people to action when you can describe the problem or a solution, or how many people are impacted.
This whole thread is vagueposting about issues with no actual asks that anyone can help with.
You replied to one of my other comments that was the impetus for this. People saying nothing is being done - when clearly a lot is being done - without describing who it isn’t being done for, and what’s not being done.
I’m not suggesting we shouldn’t do more, I’m sure we should. But I do think we have to say more and be real about what is and isn’t working and what we need to do.
Everything about this post is vague. Everything about your post is vague. What disability? What help do they need right now?
We have TTY services for the deaf, you can text most places or email with them now instead of calling.
Everything constructed in the last 20 years has ramps, elevators and plenty of handicap parking.
NYC has been spending billions retrofitting elevators into 200 year old subway stations.
Things are being done - but mobility is an infrastructure problem that works on infrastructure timescales.
You can make gay marriage legal overnight, you can’t magically retrofit buildings overnight. You can’t hire 10 million more special needs teachers. You have to train them.
Which is another great area - look at how much more we do for special needs kids in school - they get aides in integrated classes, and far more 1x1 attention than any other kid in a public school.
I am not saying it’s enough, or that anyone is done, but this “no one sees us and no one is helping” thing doesn’t actually ring true to me.
That sounds pretty bitter, and a little misguided.
I’m sure it sucks, but I bet I could find plenty of marginalized groups that get less support per capita.
The ADA has changed construction across the US for decades. Any substantial renovation involves bringing preexisting structures up to code. That is not nothing. I’m sure it’s hundreds of billions of dollars nationally in accommodations.
The ADA has made you a protected class for decades longer than LGBTQ folks.
It might be slower than you want, and I’m sure it’s still not enough, but it is far more than you’re suggesting. And probably receives more money than any other marginalized group in terms of dollars spent on accommodations.
While that is true, the screen protectors are significantly less flexible than the glass screen.
If you hold something even a little firmly against your phone, you will crack the glass screen protector. Your phones screen would not and does not crack.
I’ve cracked quite a few screen protectors that way.
The real answer is stop buying expensive ones. Buy the $9 for 3 from Amazon and replace every couple of months when they crack.
The reason they crack is that screen protectors tout their scratch resistance, and hardness, which comes at the expense of flexibility. Being hard and being brittle tend to go hand in hand.
I wouldn’t care if they scratched more and cracked less, I’m happy to spend $3 every 2-3 months either way.
Jennifer is a lesbian. Her wife, now husband, who she’s proudly supportive of, is FtM, with 3 previous children that Jennifer adopted. Jennifer has never had penetrative sex with a man.
And most of them aren’t anonymous at all. You can correlate transactions pretty quickly, because every transaction is on the chain. You can track where every bitcoin went. As soon as you break one link you can follow the chain.
Good luck doing that with cash.
Blockchain has a few - really only a few - somewhat compelling use cases. Currency isn’t one of them.
Smart, put your headquarters somewhere that takes freedom of speech seriously, just like…. wait, where did you say they were headquartered again?
