Let me explain exactly why every new subdivision in America looks like the top photo, because the math is wild. A mature tree increases a home's value by 7 to 19 percent. On a $400,000 house, that's $28,000 to $76,000. A single shade tree produces the cooling equivalent of ten room-size air conditioners running 20 hours a day. One tree on the west side of a house cuts energy bills by 12 percent within 15 years. The bottom photo is worth more, costs less to live in, and sells faster. This has been documented by the University of Washington, Clemson, Michigan State, and the USDA. The data is not in dispute. Removing those trees saves the builder roughly $5,000 per lot. Concrete trucks need twice the dripline radius of every standing tree. Utility trenches need flat ground. A bulldozer flattens 200 lots in an afternoon. Preserving trees adds weeks and thousands per home. So the developer pockets $5,000 in savings and the buyer eats $50,000 in lost value for the next two decades. The person making the decision and the person paying for it have never been in the same room. The Woodlands, Texas is the proof of what happens when they are. George Mitchell bought 28,000 acres of Houston timberland in 1974 and preserved 28% as permanent green space. He forced McDonald's to build behind the tree canopy. That McDonald's became one of the highest-volume locations in Texas. The first office building, designed to reflect the surrounding forest so you couldn't see it from the street, leased completely. The Woodlands median home price today: $615,000. Katy, a comparable Houston suburb that clear-cut: $375,000. Named #1 community to live in America two years running. Fifty years of data. The trees are worth more than removing them saves. Developers clear-cut anyway because they sell the house once and leave. You live in it for 30 years.

Iran’s strike last night wiped out 17% of Qatar’s natural gas export capacity, repairs are expected to take three to five years -Reuters (Based prewar market estimates, Iran managed to destroy ~3.5% of global LNG capacity in a single strike.)

This is not good: People have learned that GLP-1s are really effective, so if they're not losing weight, they know they're in the placebo group. So these people getting placebos are getting mad and leaving the trials.

This is wild. The @WhiteHouse plagiarized its reason for launching a war on Iran from @FDD, a cutout of Israeli intelligence. Side-by-side screenshots in the 🧵

Set the record for most rushing yards in a game by a rookie in NFL history. Then set the record for most rushing yards in a game by anyone. Still holds the records for most rushing yards and yards from scrimmage in one quarter in CFB history. Franklin High School legend.

Things you should know about former Washington Huskies RB Corey Dillon. 🟪 1996 NCAA Scoring Leader 🟪 10 Year NFL Vet (long as hell for a RB in the league) 🟪 Played for Dixie State (Utah Tech) the year before Washington 🟪 Super Bowl Champion 🟪 Cincinnati Bengals Ring of Honor

@Bspectiv3 @trouble_man90 Yall cried like phaggots for four years because eggs were 4$ lmao

@trouble_man90 Being a peasant is a personal choice. Imagine being so incompetent you solely depend on government and policies as your infrastructure in an age where money is everywhere. Be a fucking man and make some fucking money. Tired or niggas complaining bc they’re poor. Weak

“Your daughter only needs one doll, not two” “Just eat a piece of chicken, a piece of broccoli, and corn tortilla” “Make less trips” After promising to lower prices on day one, no taxes, stimulus checks coming soon, $5000 checks on the way, now MAGA wants you to live in poverty and scarcity. Incredible

Shane Waldron is mediocre AT BEST and Ryann Grubb was in over his head as a NFL OC (still love him though). Just horrendous structure of an NFL offense. All with a bottom 10 OL pass blocking both years while being a pocket passer.

Look you can say he got old and isn't starter quality anymore and that's more than fine, but this is next level revisionist history. In 22 and 23 he led objective top 12 passing O's with an OC who you and basically everyone now considers a terrorist. Can't have it both ways

@JamesRobichaux @RevENOL10 @jjangum16 No shit you fucking rtard

@RevENOL10 @jjangum16 The "30 billion" and the "200 billion" here were for completely different things, which you just acknowledged.

Remember that 20 million people saw their health care premiums double because $30 billion was too expensive.

Dear Pam Bondi, The Dow is under 46K. Can we now investigate credible accusations of pedophilia?

Grey Zabel — NFC Rookie of the Year Zabel started all 20 games of his rookie season, anchoring a Seahawks offense that ranked among the league’s best. He played a key role in Seattle’s rushing attack and in their Super Bowl LX win. #TheDraftStartsInMobile

@AcropolisJr Can’t believe I’m the only one who thinks 2. I’d be cool with 3 as well

5, by a mile

Carver Willis said coming to Washington was the best decision he’s ever made

“I think John Mills is a first round pick in 2 years…he could be an NFL Hall of Famer” -Zach Durfee on John Mills

cmon man what’s up with some of y’all? Take a discount on his first chance and maybe only chance to get paid? but also why can’t we just be happy he helped deliver another SB to the city and everyone can’t get paid from the Seahawks?

@seconds_0 Because it’s not going against consensus and people pushing butter and beef tallow as healthier alternatives are profiting off of you watching their content. The data is the data

ive noticed that none of the people who claim seed oils are good for you advertise how much safflower oil they consume each day or advocate for consumption of fried foods. McDonalds french fries are just potatoes, salt, and healthy oil!
