    House is definitely haunted.

    Also I played Hell Let Loose last night and got 17 kills as a sniper so that was rad

    i have a lot of trees around my house and sometimes branches scrape and tap on my roof

    it was a lot of fun before i realized that's what was making the sounds

    As far as I can tell, none of the trees near our house are close enough to touch our house. At least, not near the bedroom.

    I went outside and checked outside the window just in case but of course now I'm spooked because the house is damn creaky.

    On the other hand, the cats were fully unphased so I figure until they start freaking out we're in the clear.

    I saw another article today blaming millennials for the suburban housing marking stagnation and I had the thought,

    “Dude, we’re like 40 now. Stop blaming us for things. We are the mainstream. We can’t afford houses and if we could we still wouldn’t move to the suburbs. Fuck all the way off.”


    Millennials are killing the suburbs!

    Good.

    how does the story in that article square with

    1. covid wfh allowing a decent chunk of people with homebuying income to live more exurban but still work their prior job
    2. housing prices soaring, especially in urban areas, meaning millenials are forced to live in suburban areas whether they want to or not

    hm sometime in the next couple months I'm going to have actual analysis on this but not sure if by demographic really, since ACS data for 2020 isn't released until sept. I'm going to get some good house prices data though

    There are a lot of suburbs out there that were cheaply made on worthless land and everyone is surprised when the demand doesn't magically appear.

    People bought 150k mcmansions in the desert in 2003 and don't understand why it's not worth $1mil since it was supposed to be their retirement fund.

    Fuck me I'm starting to love getting up at 5, working for about an hour and a half (uninterrupted), and then sleeping till like 8:30 or 9 and getting back to work.

    I would 100% do this if I worked from home.

    like that no one expects anything good to come of of them

    Ireland, but they are a budget airline with no pretense

    For thirty quid they'll get you, and anything you can fit inside your pockets, within about 400 miles of your destination.

    I think on our flight to Puerto Rico I bought what was essentially a fancy Lunchable for 15 dollars.

    They also served us the saddest free ham and cheese I'd ever seen, by some kind of regulation saying they had to.

    Once I was really hungover and the airport had no food options and I handed over about twenty quid for a terrible instant coffee and some kind of sandwich and it compounded my misery.

    Other times I've had to fly Ryanair for work because I needed to get somewhere strange. In which case I'll happily pay £7 for a 330ml beer

    The new Spiderman is gonna be only in theaters supposedly, in mid December when we all know Delta is going to be ravaging the country still. It's coming out like 3 weeks after Thanksgiving.

    So I'm putting together my Spiderman Theater Armor now. I'm thinking swim goggles, 3-4 pairs of nitrile gloves, two N95 masks, and a pool cue for social distancing. What else should I get?

    I'm not missing this movie.

    Once me and my girlfriend took a Ryanair flight to Paris. The seats in the plane were covered in rubber. We landed in a tiny airfield waay out in the sticks. The terminal was a tent, I kid you not. The bus from the airfield to Gare du Nord took about the same time as the flight from Skavsta to Paris. But it was a very cheap flight. We were young, poor and happy. Good times.

    I was on a ryanair flight where I paid EUR12 for a sandwich. The person next to me saw this and informed me that they had paid one euro for the whole flight. You can imagine how thrilled I was to learn this!

    Till we hit like 80%+ vaccination rates folks will still be at risk. Because new variants are still possible.

    and the laptop is fucked up and i guess no one was going to tell me and maybe thats why they've been avoiding doing the scanning like the plague.

    There's a part of me that is becoming incredibly fatalistic about COVID precautions because, like, we're starting class next week face to face and we've already had 18 cases

    my wife is in accounting school and her classes have basically abandoned social distancing and a lot of the shitty business majors just don't wear masks and her professors don't do anything

    one of us is gonna get it, plus she's still also at starbucks and their cafe is open and customers just don't even pretend to try and wear masks inside despite our county having an indoor mask mandate again
