5-MeO-DMT gave me a single idea that won't leave.
Our minds are not naturally capable of understanding the preciousness of our existence.
Not "life is precious" as printed on a poster. It's something much more specific. That the hardware we're running, human consciousness, cannot render the full resolution of what it means to be here. Like a 480p screen trying to display an 8K image. The information is there but the display can't hold it.
It's been 3 weeks and I still feel childlike and fresh. My mind feels free of the accumulated barnacle. My dreams are alive.
The brain data is now coming in and it matches my reported subjective experiences. I'm excited to share it with you.
But the data doesn't complete the picture. The feeling is that I found a home I didn't know I was looking for and I don't have a biomarker for that.

@BosniaNTBall I don’t think you know what those numbers mean given it’s real context but regardless congrats to @BosniaNTBall

Tried explaining to my uncle how we’d likely have to pay taxes on a RE foreclosure we’re going through (owned for decades, low tax basis, big loan, etc.) as LPs.
He called me with his accountant, who tried explaining to me that my understanding is flawed. “You guys are *limited* partners. It is a *limited* partnership. You can’t owe more than what you invested. That’s the whole point.”
No. I will not defer to the experts. Especially when their expertise is *limited*.

@LA_Multi_Fam Is that because you would have to offer a new unit at the previous rate for the previous tenants?

There are 4 contiguous R1 lots totaling ~1.3 acres that just hit the market in a very nice pocket of Los Angeles.
3 tear down homes on them.
Perfect SB 1123 property where you could scrape existing, and build up to 40 new townhomes under the law.
They’re asking $6M total. Think each new townhome could sell for $1M to $1.1M
However because the existing homes have been rented in the past 5 years it completely disqualifies the project from utilizing SB 1123.
CA renter housing protections are off the charts stupid!

@SinaiLawFirm How was the notice defectively prepared and served?
English

Last night I was browsing eviction decisions in the county and came across an unsealed case of a commercial eviction
Att portal listed 570 actions in the case
15 months in litigation
7 day jury trial
$500k in unpaid rent
appeal mid-case
multiple depositions
22 discovery motions
100s of trial exhibits
1 separate civil action
experts
14 MIL
JOTP
MSJ/MSA for each side
demurrer
motion to quash supbonas
terminating sanctions
4 motions to continue trial
All for the tenant to win in trial because the notice was defectively prepared and served. I actually read the verdict form and it made me sick how this got approved as a question for the jury. Talk about dropping the ball.
you are not going to believe this, but the plaintiff's lawyer is not a full time eviction lawyer. Fancy mid-size firm.
I am guessing each side paid a fortune to litigate this. At least $100k in fees for each side, maybe more.

@SinaiLawFirm The Emerald in South Park. They bought it at a good basis.

This is not some conspiracy theory, it is already happening on a mass scale in LA
HACLA (The Housing Authority of the City of Los Angeles) just purchased 154 units in DTLA for what it cost the developer to build it (335k/unit)
How does it work? Exactly like she says:

The United States and China are locked in a soft war.
They are playing a global game of chess, including economic policies, propaganda, and control of strategic assets.
When you see the world through this lens, many of the decisions from both countries makes a lot more sense.
The two superpowers don't want to directly engage each other in a kinetic war. They each understand that the battle of the 21st century will be determined by this soft war though.
Two competing ideologies:
- Collectivism vs individualism
- Capitalism vs socialism
- Democracy vs communism
No asset is off the board. No decision is too big or too crazy. And there is no trophy for second place.
The winner runs the world for the next century.

Great job my friend! Why is he not vacationing in Venezuela or North Korea?

Me topé a @fernandeznorona en la calle en Roma. Saliendo del exclusivo centro comercial Rinascente. Me quiso quitar el celular y su pareja me quiso patear. Ni un segundo de sosiego a este perro hambreado defensor de Maduro.

At some point with enough regulation producing fines, it borders on looting.
You can have more fines from over-regulation, or you can have a growing economy, but you can't have both.

Perhaps surprisingly, am fine with "loose" rent stabilization, so long as it includes:
1. Annual rent increases in the range of CPI + 1-2%
2. The ability to buy out a tenancy at a fair, formulaically determined price, so that the building can be (re-)renovated every ~30 yrs
3. Rents re-set to market when tenant vacates
4. "Good cause" eviction protections which nevertheless allow owner to evict a truly bad actor who makes the building unsafe (serious crime, extreme hoarding, will-full damage to building, etc.)
To me, the above strikes a fair balance between the interest of tenants in stability and the interest of owners in being able to run safe, profitable buildings.
