[00:22]	IsambardPrince	MinceR, I noticed something that amused me. People who generally do well in life are not prepared to endure suffering.
[00:22]	IsambardPrince	Sometimes I sing "Born and bred in the Briar Patch"
[00:23]	IsambardPrince	Nobody gets it, but it's from Disney's Song of the South, which they've pretty much disappeared.
[00:24]	IsambardPrince	Brer Rabbit tricks Brer Fox into throwing him into the briar patch.
[00:24]	IsambardPrince	Then laughs at him because that's where he's lived his whole life.
[00:26]	MinceR	doesn't make a lot of sense
[00:27]	MinceR	unless he has Damage Reduction or something

[00:30]	IsambardPrince	The Augment stories were always good.
[00:31]	IsambardPrince	Genetically engineered humans who were so formidable the Klingon's were terrified of them.
[00:32]	IsambardPrince	Even dangerous without formal combat training just because they were so strong and difficult to kill.

[03:14]	IsambardPrince	You mean if society ever comes to its senses and hangs pedophiles from a very short rope?
[03:14]	IsambardPrince	You hang someone from a short rope, they flop around and choke to death. A long rope lets them fall and breaks their neck so they die quickly.
[03:15]	IsambardPrince	When they were hanging Nazis, a lot of American soldiers deliberately "accidentally" made the rope too short.
[03:15]	MinceR	no, i mean once they manage to convince at least the fascist tribe that being a pedophile is A-OK
[03:15]	IsambardPrince	Nobody cared enough to look into this.
[03:15]	MinceR	not necessarily intentionally, just by means of having several high-ranking fascists being found out as being pedophiles
[03:16]	MinceR	dictators ("presidents"), their close friends, high-ranking cult leaders and the like
[03:18]	MinceR	and all this after making everyone in their tribe attentive to pedophilia, too
[03:19]	MinceR	by accusing everyone they disagreed with of it

[03:38]	IsambardPrince	Fair enough. Most people in the 18th century kept normal hours though.
[03:38]	IsambardPrince	The world wasn't in much of a hurry back then.
[03:39]	IsambardPrince	People tended to work, go home, sleep. Maybe smoke some weed. They smoked weed back then, but not like Lobster Weed.
[03:39]	IsambardPrince	You know the natural stuff, not the crap that has been selectively bred to cause hallucinations.
[03:40]	IsambardPrince	The world hadn't gone crazy yet.
[03:40]	IsambardPrince	Work was work.

[03:42]	IsambardPrince	Who knew how old it was or if it was handled properly.
[03:42]	IsambardPrince	Now things are sort of turned around.
[03:42]	IsambardPrince	It's the rural population that's sicker.
[03:43]	IsambardPrince	Because most of them are not in agriculture, which isn't as labor intensive anymore and whatever is, they tend to hire illegal immigrants.
[03:43]	IsambardPrince	So the rural people sit around, poor, with industrial food (not great).
[03:43]	IsambardPrince	And no healthcare (because the people they vote for took it away).
[03:44]	IsambardPrince	I posted that I don't plan to go to Florida anytime soon.
[03:44]	IsambardPrince	That "Alligator Alcatraz" thing is what happens when you get a state government that's all too eager to help ICE.
[03:45]	IsambardPrince	The local yokels arrested a US citizen, accused him of being an illegal immigrant, tased him, said "You've got no rights here, bro! You're an hombre!" and then the cops said they could "smell the $30,000 bonus".
[03:45]	IsambardPrince	It all got recorded.
[03:45]	IsambardPrince	They just grab random brown people and stick them in there and won't let them talk to anyone.
[03:46]	IsambardPrince	The federal government claims that no immigration court has their case.
[03:46]	IsambardPrince	And occasionally they fly them out of the country "somewhere".

These people go into this knowing full-well that their arguments are trash and their political stance is "whatever pisses off the other side." The conniption fit is performative.

[04:06]	IsambardPrince	"Even Top Earners Are Falling Behind on Credit Card and Car Payments"
[04:06]	IsambardPrince	schestowitz[TR3], ^
[04:07]	IsambardPrince	"Upper-income Americans are increasingly falling behind on credit card and auto loan payments, signaling an underlying vulnerability in the US economy as the labor market slows.
[04:07]	IsambardPrince	Delinquencies on such debts from those making at least $150,000 annually have jumped almost 20% over the last two years, faster than for middle- and lower-income borrowers, according to the credit-scoring firm VantageScore. A recent Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis study found the share of people making late card payments in the highest-income zip codes has risen twice as much over the last year as in the lowest-income ones."
[04:07]	IsambardPrince	"The mounting liabilities coincide with a slowdown in hiring that has hit white-collar workers especially hard, raising the stakes for an economy that has come to rely more and more on consumer spending from top earners to power continued expansion."
[04:09]	IsambardPrince	[...]
[04:09]	IsambardPrince	"The Lawtons began a debt-consolidation process a year ago, lowered one of their car payments and downsized their expenses as much as they could by canceling subscriptions and delaying visits to the vet.

[06:53]	IsambardPrince	As to Hamas which is the Palestinian "state" in Gaza?
[06:55]	IsambardPrince	schestowitz[TR3], I've been hoping for the UN to recognize Palestine more, but there's a reason.
[06:55]	IsambardPrince	Federal law in the US requires that we suspend payments to and pull out of any organization or body that recognizes a Palestinian state.
[06:55]	IsambardPrince	So the more that do, the more trigger that law.
[06:56]	IsambardPrince	And we save money, defund people that hate America, and tell them to go find like a third of their budget somewhere else.
[06:56]	IsambardPrince	I don't like Trump, but I would be doing a very few of the same things his administration is.
[06:57]	IsambardPrince	Like removal of the US membership in most of the United Nations, and canceling TPS status for a bunch of "immigrants".
[06:57]	IsambardPrince	TPS is a non-immigrant status that was meant to be given out sparingly, when people cannot live in their country for "a little while".
[06:57]	IsambardPrince	It's a form of humanitarian aid.
[06:58]	IsambardPrince	It was never envisioned to go on for 26 years, 18 months at a time, to some people.
[06:58]	IsambardPrince	Or to be doled out indiscriminately to people from countries where no emergency is happening.

I don't think asking a CVP what should be a simple yes/no question will work. You'll never get an admission and instead will be either ignored, deflected, or given a corporate non-answer, which should give you your answer right there. I think my curiosity is valid given the mass firings for performance and layoffs. It would provid

[23:21]	IsambardPrince	He disposed of the other one with a rent to own company.
[23:21]	schestowitz[TR3]	too early
[23:21]	schestowitz[TR3]	let him clean up first
[23:21]	IsambardPrince	Like, you buy the unit through renting it.
[23:21]	schestowitz[TR3]	mortgage
[23:21]	schestowitz[TR3]	same thing
[23:21]	schestowitz[TR3]	different marketing
[23:21]	schestowitz[TR3]	and different plan
[23:22]	IsambardPrince	Yeah, but the excess rent goes into an account. So basically, you get that back if you leave before the part where you own it.
[23:22]	schestowitz[TR3]	"buy one get one free"
[23:22]	schestowitz[TR3]	to..
[23:22]	schestowitz[TR3]	"pay rent 1000 times"
[23:22]	IsambardPrince	So it's better than a mortgage in THAT sense.
[23:22]	schestowitz[TR3]	then get the unit
[23:22]	IsambardPrince	Also, the landlord has to maintain it while you are in the rental phase.
[23:22]	IsambardPrince	schestowitz[TR3], Yes, the effective interest is higher than a mortgage.
[23:22]	IsambardPrince	But you don't have those "Shit, we can barely pay the mortgage and now the furnace is out!" things going on.

[23:30]	IsambardPrince	schestowitz[TR3], He's going to be really disappointed if he sells this building in this market.
[23:31]	IsambardPrince	It was a very stupid decision to ever buy it in the first place.
[23:31]	IsambardPrince	Mark had it listed for 9 months.
[23:31]	IsambardPrince	It probably would have never sold had this greedy idiot never came along.
[23:31]	IsambardPrince	And he didn't do a proper inspection and did not talk Mark down much at all.
[23:32]	IsambardPrince	An inspection would have cost $10,000 or so, tops. And it would have revealed enough issues that he could have gotten Mark to take probably $500,000+ less and be glad that he got anything at all.
[23:33]	IsambardPrince	Using the savings, the landlord would have had a budget to make improvements to the property and start drawing in better tenants.
[23:33]	IsambardPrince	But what he did was walk up, asked if the air conditioners worked, paid way too much, now he has no real equity, just numbers he himself put on a website.
[23:33]	IsambardPrince	And no budget for capital investments.

[23:37]	IsambardPrince	Market turbulence is not being kind.
[23:37]	IsambardPrince	He's making concessions to have a full building.
