I also wonder if it's even possible for people to determine how fast they are going. Is there a speedometer? If the thing is motorized, then there should be one!

Right, but that would be a whole crowd's worth of demand. Why would you raise the price of something after only one person shows interest? One person is not "demand." And also, there probably isn't a finite supply of the product in question like there would be for hotel rooms in one town.

I hadn't heard of it until this year. The name isn't particularly inspiring either, makes me think of past kings of England.

And a whole tripod. What a waste.

Can she ask the coauthors how they're dealing with it? Maybe ask the bosses if they can open the uploads earlier, especially if everyone is having a hard time getting their work uploaded in time.

Wikipedia lists Real Clear Politics as having become more conservative and right leaning in recent years. Their polls may not be as accurate.

Fuck Vox. Forces you to agree to cookies before finding out you can't read the article anyway because its behind a paywall.

I know this is completely counterintuitive, but if you can sit with that wrong feeling without panicking, it will go away faster. Just accept that it is there. Don't fight it. The more you fight your emotions, the harder they grip you.

Ok, I'm genuinely confused. Without some kind of landlord, how can people live in homes they don't want to own? Would the state or the federal government own, maintain, and rent out unowned homes? Or would there be a free-for-all of free abandoned homes and if you want to live in one, you'd be responsible for making it livable? Or...?

I knew a guy that did something like this. He had at least 2 LLCs, one which owned a building and the other owned a restaurant. So his building LLC rented space to his restaurant LLC, which simply never paid any rent. That way he could write off all that rent he didn't collect from himself as a loss for the building LLC. Dumbass still couldn't make the restaurant profitable even without having to pay rent.

Well, the thing is, this is exactly what led to the housing crash of '08. Back then it was because the banks were pushing people into it (and then selling the bundled loans as better rated than they were, where inside investors bet on the loans failing). If this is what's happening now, it's certainly because the banks are enabling it again. That would be insanely stupid of the banks after what happened in '08, but somehow we've gotten stuck in the stupidest timeline, so...

That's quite a claim. I'm sure the industry generally does not want to stop numbing people with black-box drugs. That's way easier than actually trying to heal people.
