Roberts allegedly lobbied fellow conservative justices to preserve Roe, and then the leak happened.

I'm surprised his son still talks to him enough for him to even be invited to his wedding.

Apparently the market is tanking today? Our lender called us all panicked wanting to lock in our rates. 5.99% is some bs but I guess it’s going to get worse.

QT earnings are starting it hit the media, Walmart down 8%- many blue chips and tech also down. FED is likely going to raise interest rates another 75bps, which is why the panicked call ( This meeting is tomorrow) 5.99% is back to 2009 levels, so it's not terrible; but it's not the all time low of 2.9%

My IL's built their house at a 10% mortgage rate My in-laws love to remind us that back in the 80's interest rates were much higher. To which I counter house prices, especially as compared to incomes, were much lower. So.

No, you are not. You are so much better off.

Fed-aware people, how does recusing yourself from your current job to look for new jobs work? I'm mind-blown that this is something people can do. Do you get paid? Do you keep your benefits?

I'm always amazed when people who work for years to make things better jump ship and go work for their former enemies who actively worked against their good deeds for years. Amazed. And it's so common!
I watched a doc on HBO, can't remember the name, and one of the fucksticks who made the opioid crisis worse by successfully lobbying for bad laws was former DEA. so when he trotted out to say "this bill is so gr8!" A lot of congress people went for it.

A low security prison in Florida? Really? Probably the same cushy "prison" Martha Stewart was at. I mean, is it really prison if there isn't tennis?

My IL's built their house at a 10% mortgage rate My ILs talk about how they negotiated a 12% rate with a private note holder when they bought their first house decades ago. The bank was offering 16% at the time. We refinanced during the pandemic when rates tanked and are locked in at like 2.8X something. I don't know, but thank goodness. I keep seeing articles about how people buying now need to lock in rates because a lot will be underwater on their loans once rates come back down.

I know this is small potatoes given everything that has happened lately, but I am so angry. There is a large, beautiful public garden in Halifax which is an absolutely spectacular centrepiece for the city. It is meticulously maintained, and locked up at sundown daily. Someone went in with a hatchet and girdled 30 trees. This garden is full of incredibly old and rare specimens. One is a stunning ~150 year old European weeping beech with the biggest, most glorious canopy. Some of these trees are irreplaceable. Most will die now. I hate people.

What would possess someone to do that? I’m sorry, that’s really sad.
