@RRR0BYN Better to waste their time on useless work in the middle of the woods than be somewhere they could actually change something.

I really wonder sometimes about the homestead meme that has been relentlessly pushed online for the past 5 years. I refuse to farm lol so I have remained resistant to the glamorization of hard domestic labor and owning livestock. But I wonder if this is an op of some kind often. I’m not saying farming is bad, I just don’t think everyone can or should do it.
How will they rug pull all these trad larpers who decided it was cool and aesthetic to geographically isolate themselves and devote themselves to pretending they’re better than everyone else bc they have a few chickens. I really do wonder.

We're going to get a leak in about 10 years, give or take 5 years, that the CIA was planting most of these "former CIA spies" and "former Special Operations" guys in the podcast space

@TheRealKitty019 I 100% some dirt bag told her that it was his dream to be a stepdad just to get with that milf. Mind you, he was lying for sex.
English
This isn’t real. This conversation never happened. It’s a malicious untruth designed to trick you into ruining your dating prospects, told by someone who just wants you far away from her idea of the “””good men”””.
Men will tell you what we like, just listen to us.
Lisa Britton@LisaBritton
@JohnsonEmma A friend of mine, single with a young child, says the same thing. She’s telling me young twenty-something men tell her they like that she has a child. Some even tell her their “dream is to be a stepdad.”

@vrilliumlive I met a recently ordained zoomer priest who was my age. Came up and shook my hand because I was one of 10 people who made it to mass during a snow storm. I could see the Hitler edits in his eyes.
English
To be a Catholic priest you have to
- be celibate
- dedicate your entire life to Christ
- live your entire life around the church
The ONLY people in Gen Z willing to do that are extreme, devout autists. When they get in power they’re gonna be calling crusades bro 💀

Among Catholic priests who were ordained in the late 1960s: 68% describe their theology as progressive. 16% said it was conservative. Among priests ordained in the last few years: 2% describe their theology as progressive. 84% said it was conservative.

@Sargon_of_Akkad @CassandraRules She could have swapped her crops and bought a machine to replace the mexican'ts for $200k.
English
@CassandraRules She spent 200k on a house for her Mexican slaves, rather than increase wages for American workers. That is commitment.

I hate passionately hate everything about this woman.

Farmers struggle to find workers as immigration enforcement tightens 👀
English
@_haystax_ @CovfefeAnon Become a better farmer then.
English
@CovfefeAnon You obviously don’t understand the margins that people in production agriculture have to operate on. Don’t twist this story to fit your narrative
English
This is like the classic dril bit
>I can't find workers for my farm
>Offer a higher wage
>No
English
@dontsayrino @CovfefeAnon She had 7 people reach out for a job. There's plenty of people available to do the work she just doesn't want to pay them.
English
@CovfefeAnon I didn't hear her say that. But paying 'enough' may cause her to run at a loss.
We need a good guest worker program.
English
@Digging4Freedom @thejoshuabigly @CovfefeAnon @JasonHornbuckle Maybe she should have bought a robot to pick the strawberries for pennies a day.
English
@thejoshuabigly @CovfefeAnon @JasonHornbuckle So nobody better complain about either lack of strawberries or the price of strawberries if picked by locals. But you fucking whiners somehow find a way to complain either way.

@ScottforFlorida @VivekGRamaswamy No we need a white man as governor not an anchor baby.

It’s time for American exceptionalism to make a comeback. That starts in Ohio next year.

@kenzietuff @RizomaSchool Public school radicalized me more than homeschooling ever could ngl. Though, life would have probably been better if I was homeschooled because then I could have had real friends instead of fake ones up until college.
English
@RizomaSchool Not forcing your children to deal with multiculturalism is not completely sheltering them or withdrawing from society.
English
I mean this as a genuine question. Is it not your job as a parent to give your kid challenges they need to overcome as a part of them getting stronger as people?
Why does this current generation of parents think withdrawing from society and teaching their kids to be scared of their peers will be good, overall?

When you send your children to public school, this is who they’ll be spending their day with.😑

@brightestpet @jaymart222 @jenngradybklyn Ok boomer, go tell me how using the government to ensure undercollateralized loans isn't flat out communism.

Vacancy Control.
Tenant died in February 2025; it took a year in housing court to gain possession. The renter occupied the unit for 46 years.
He owed $19,957.41 on a rent of $1,234.87 at the time of death. Operating cost is $1,380, so it “makes” -$146 every month before renovation costs.
The rent cannot be changed on vacsncy and tbe Rent Guidlines Board does not keep up with cost. There is no mechanism to cover the costs of the full gut renovation needed for the next renter, nor will a bank extend a loan to do the work to cover the costs with a rent that can never pay it back.
As a result, the unit will stay empty.
This is your city on vacancy control.
English
@RichardK4 @jaymart222 @jenngradybklyn Cool, put it on the market and let someone else buy it and run it better. Or continue to lose money like they deserve.
English
Sell the properties to who? It's rent and vacancy controlled and require enormous amount of renovations.
Owned outright with no leverage at all some of these brownstones can't cover taxes and maintenance. (See: The awful state of NYC public housing - with worse maintenance and more violations than the cities worst private slumlords)
Their only hope is being condemned and torn down and something else built.

@RaisingLesBars @jaymart222 @jenngradybklyn My premise is people who benefit from government intervention deserve to go broke by government intervention.
English
@beastly0418 @jaymart222 @jenngradybklyn You haven’t defined or established your first premises, and it looks like you don’t want to.
Thus, no good faith effort to have a productive conversation.
English
@RaisingLesBars @jaymart222 @jenngradybklyn You can't even understand a 2nd order system. All you see is "Muh guberment bloka mee frum buying a wental prwoperty!!!!"
English
@beastly0418 @jaymart222 @jenngradybklyn You have taken a discussion that seemed to hinge on whether or not people should be permitted to own more than one abode and gone off down some road about a problem you perceive with obtaining mortgage loans.
English
@RaisingLesBars @jaymart222 @jenngradybklyn You pretending that these rental "owners" aren't using undercollateralized loans (government subsidies) should be allowed to own more than one property.
English
@beastly0418 @jaymart222 @jenngradybklyn I am not arguing that the G should subsidize housing, where are you seeing that?
English
@Aella_Girl I was catcalled by 3 semi-drunk 40 year old women. Best day of my life.
English
@RaisingLesBars @jaymart222 @jenngradybklyn The fun part is that if we didn't have undercollateralized lending then your shit box you overpaid for would be 25% the price so you COULD make money on renting it out at the rent controlled rates.
English
@beastly0418 @jaymart222 @jenngradybklyn I don’t know why you want me to be in charge of deciding whether or not you have too much stuff.
Envy and resentment is the driver here. If it weren’t, you would focus on making a case for reform of lending laws since that the basis of your claim of moral justification.
English
English
@RaisingLesBars @jaymart222 @jenngradybklyn It's called it's not your shit when the bank has a note on it. Under-collateralized debt is actively stealing my money to drive up housing prices so that I can't buy a house. YOU'RE the one advocating for taking MY stuff because YOU want it. YOU'RE the evil one.
