  • Zillow defines a starter home as one in the lowest third of home values in a given region.

    I wondered what they meant, since to me it means something small, maybe 1k sqft in areas I’m familiar with, simple, 3 bed and 1 bath. Move up from there as needed. Some would call that small and for others it’s luxury, it’s relative. Also wages don’t keep up with the high real estate prices so that’s on the employers to pay more and need more public housing if builders won’t do it. Make the land available at little cost or spread over long terms like other places have done successfully. Oh the rich builders don’t want that so it won’t happen, see?

    Edit: learn more with this question: How have some places used public land for small groceries and public housing and had long term lease or loans to make it easier?













  • You get bad fruit from bad trees, as they like to say, and he is another example of the unhealthy, authoritarian type, which the guy they claim to follow was against. The stories paint a hero for the least among us, outcasts, women, the unclean, etc. and against hierarchies and the establishment that made such impossible rules it turned people away. The story about healing the Centurion’s lover back home, remote healing as Mel White said, and other stories of turn the other cheek, help the meek, and rebuke phonies like this clown. If you want to stay in the faith at least be like Mel. https://youtu.be/xf7WIvEsR0Y

    Real truth does set free from the unfalsifiable demands, the damage and baggage of the shame/blame, punish/reward systems. Real truth withstands questions and doesn’t demand obedience and ignore facts, unlike the dry sand foundation of some flavors of supernatural systems. They fall apart at the simplest scrutiny they get upset about and move the goalposts with each new discovery. They fail at Sagan’s baloney kit, partly because none of these supernatural traditions were meant to be science or medical textbooks, yet too many still do that today. Maybe they accept some medical help, but some also reject proven vaccines, and cause needless suffering to innocent victims.

    Faith is supposed to allow room for doubt and mystery, but that got subverted and hijacked by the hierarchy. We are the cosmos observing itself, made from primordial hydrogen and elements exploded from supernova and other cosmic events! DNA that has survived all the extinction events to become human, typing/reading this today, the cosmos in each of us, and nothing after this, that is freedom through truth!






  • Efforts to control speech in Alabama’s educational institutions constitute just one part of a larger national effort to standardize speech and, by necessity, thought. Happily, however, the First Amendment not only protects the use of particular words but also extends to a person’s choice of language.

    What a waste of time and money in all this BS. maga cuts help for people but wastes money on trash like this renaming and vanity projects, he/they are pathetic and weak. This is how dictators behave to spread their lies and force conformity. These efforts go back to the powell memo and all the other gop ones since then, including the 2025 plan that’s over half done.
