No-one wants to pay three quarters of a million dollars for 400 square feet of shoddy finishing.

Condo sales have fallen by 75% in the Greater Toronto Area and 37% in the Vancouver area since 2022.

Developers cut costs with small, shoddy quality condos built specifically for investors.

For those tempted to say Young Republicans have always been this way, they really have not. When I worked on campus and did bipartisan college events after, they were very much not like this.

That’s why groups like YCT and eventually TPUSA formed — because Young Republicans weren’t radical enough.

Pulisic & Tillman w/ hamstring issues.

Pochettino concerned w/ the sequence of games after defeat of Australia.

"You are training in 35-degree (Celsius) then it's Denver & the altitude & its really cold. I think its a massive risk. That is something we can fix in the future."

There's one person who pays them $250 a month who cost Augment $15,000. Amazing stuff. Can only imagine how bad things are for Cursor or Replit
www.augmentcode.com/blog/augment...

The user message model also isn’t sustainable for Augment Code as a business. For example, over the last 30 days, a user on our $250 Max plan has issued 335 requests per hour, every hour, for 30 days, and is approaching $15,000 per month in cost to Augment Code. This sort of use isn’t inherently bad, but as a business, we have to price our service in accordance with our costs.

Least favorite type of sports chatter person - people who interrupt or join in your conversation to tell you what's wrong with the sport you're talking about

No one cares about your prestige reading. Just read what you want.

You don't have to finish a book you don't like. You're not hurting the book or the author's feelings

Not every book has to be for edification. Read for fun for fucks sake

What's your totally ordinary opinion about books that you nonetheless find compelled to share when asked on a social media site such as this one for your most extreme/unhinged/hottest takes?

I'll go first: manga is popular among young people because manga often features young people.
