  • In an imaginary scenario, if I go to sell my house, and know that I’ve got a 400k loan to pay off and the house is worth around 400k, I’m going to factor in what I have to pay the agents and set it for 420k (assuming 2.5% for both selling and buying agents to split). I’m not going to be walking away from that still owing money to the bank.

    The prices always factor in how much will be going to the agent(s). You will not accept a price that is below what you need.

    Oh boy, another person thinking a lurch towards fascism will help get progressive policies get passed in congress. Or maybe they think fascists having control of the biggest intelligence services in the world will help the leftists thrive? Surely leftists will be just fine if the far right gets all the levers of power in government.

    I expect this to get a lot of negative input, but the Orca’s free roam space is actually 3x the size they’ve highlighted. And granted, it’s really small compared to the oceans of the world, but someone’s purposely lying, and to make the point they don’t even need to. Just had to try to get the multiplier to move a tiny bit more, like that would be the sway point.

    Still not sure what people expect SeaWorld to do with the orcas they currently have. Should they all be shot? Is that better for the orcas? They would starve to death if released.





  • Apparently, the classification levels in the US are illegal! Snowden will rejoice, he can come home, as the first amendment allows free speech, even when it damages national security.

    I did not read the article, but the summary made me actually laugh out loud. Hell the supreme court has already said the government has the right to intern a whole class of US citizens based on national security. The SCOTUS rulings do seem rather crazy at times to me though, so perhaps this is a winning strategy for ByteDance.
