My grandmother bought a new house on top of Mt Soledad in La Jolla, CA for 0 down with a decent mortgage in 1960. I can't even imagine what that house is worth today.

What does running as a spoiler actually accomplish? They are doing nothing but taking away votes from the democrat candidate* with no chance of being elected to national office. If you want better environmental policy, and actually want to accomplish it then the democrats are your only realistic option.

*I understand and respect that a good portion of Greens would not vote for the Democrat, but anyone who is likely on the fence is vastly more likely to vote D than R. I am also very happy to acknowledge that our voting system sucks and we should implement ranked choice nationally. I would like to the Green party as a viable option in the future, but it is not in 2024, all this candidacy is accomplishing is helping the republican nominee. I am still bitter that my first time voting was for Nader because I was dumb. I would honestly love to see examples of the Green party working to actually build up their base in local elections as that is the only way they are going to ever be viable and not just a spoiler.

I would think that if they are sent by USPS then the states would not be able to legally intercept them. USPS is not responsible for enforcing state laws and there are some pretty serious laws protecting the privacy and integrity of your parcels and mail.

The one good thing that W did was the do not call registry, that worked for a while at least.

I live in a major city with one of the best transit systems in the country so we don't really have that here, but it's that it's a class thing mainly.

Also since so much of the country is flat out inaccessible without a car that going without one can be very isolating.

It's the ring road that sounds Washington DC and it's inner suburbs in Virginia and Maryland. The designation is 495 of you are really curious about the road itself for some reason.

Let's not besmirch Blanche Deveroux's good name here.

I would think they are talking about non-vegans but trying to be a bit coy.

Also a Mazda 3 is not that small, neither is a Corolla.

One of my favorite encounters when I ran 5e was using a roper on the ceiling while the party fought a couple ghouls. The bard and wizard were very surprised 👹

I don't care if they are paying for it themselves, speaking as a resident of Kingman Park I am totally against a new stadium there. It is an unbelievably wasteful application of the RFK campus, its basically useless to the community here, and would be a huge nuisance.

White chocolate is just sugary butter, you are a simpleton. Good day sir or madam.
