Wants all prices to disclose full environmental cost of the product.

Upside. You’ll feel like you’re getting a screaming deal while destroying the earth

LOL, the earth will destroy us long before we can destroy it. It survived meteor that caused the extinction of dinosaurs, so I’m sure it can handle anything we throw at it. We might not be able to handle what it throws back though.[/quote]

Lol. What I mean when I say destroy the earth is destroy the habitat that sustains us. Lol.

Indeed, the “Earth” won’t exist without us, as the word earth, it’s a human word, and without humans, whatever is here will have no one to call it “earth”. It will be a nameless rock. No not even a nameless rock, as the very concept of anything being named and unnamed will disappear with us. So no, the “earth” cannot survive without us.

Lol.

Without language, I’m not sure anything knowable to us can exist. See, e.g., genesis 1.

Shop on, Americans!!!

Isn’t tbt an inflation hedge?

[scaredyclassic]

It’s the logical consequence of corporations outsourcing work. Americans will hold jobs but outsource everything

Walt Whitman.

Never read the context of the I am large quote.

Almost sounds like he’s blogging.

[scaredyclassic]

The past and present wilt—I have fill’d them, emptied them.
And proceed to fill my next fold of the future.

Listener up there! what have you to confide to me?
Look in my face while I snuff the sidle of evening,
(Talk honestly, no one else hears you, and I stay only a minute longer.)

Do I contradict myself?
Very well then I contradict myself,
(I am large, I contain multitudes.)

I concentrate toward them that are nigh, I wait on the door-slab.

Who has done his day’s work? who will soonest be through with his supper?
Who wishes to walk with me?

Will you speak before I am gone? will you prove already too late?

I can’t believe how expensive shit is.

Subcontract

[quote=flyer]Right. Probably more accurate to say, of the choices available to each of us, we’re free to spend money on them as we choose. Still a great option, imo.[/quote]

Right. And it might be even more accurate to say that most have no actual real choice.

Everyone is free to choose actually means rich people get the best options

[scaredyclassic]

I think you mean free to spend money as you elect, not like actually free to choose.

Why can’t I choose to get psychedelic mushrooms at Costco?

[quote=Coronita][quote=flyer]Some friends inquired for their kids, and found the developments will, most likely, not be in their desired school districts, so they bought in CV. Don’t know if that will become an issue for potential buyers in those MM developments, but for those who want specific school districts for their kids, as many do, it might.[/quote]

this is bullshit. I seriously doubt you sent your own kids to public school. My money says that like many other who bought in an area like Carmel Valley, you bought thinking you are getting the “best” elementary schools…For example….. Ocean Air and Sage Canyon, but 2-3 years after sending your kid there, you decided to put your kids into a private school anyway.

If your kids were really gifted, you would have found the instructions at even the CV public schools lacking like many parent found and eventually sent their kids to a private school.

Or maybe you skipped the CV public schools completely and did what many people did, and send them to LJ Country Day or Bishop school anyway, which makes the argument about the public school district lacking a non-argument. The only thing worth considering is ensuring the neighborhood is a safe neighbor, which I’m sure 3Roots will be fine. Concidentally, some of the biggest drug offenses happen to been in the more affluent areas where helicopter parents with money leave a lot of money to directionless spoiled brats who have nothing better to do than to vape and sniff. Wasn’t that lady who got caught selling drug some mom from that private high school in Carmel Valley, Cathedral High???….

The teaching staff at DMUSD or San Dieguito is no better or worse than say Poway or up in Carlsbad. What makes a difference in the kid’s education was parental involvement, whether it was hands on in the case of me or parents shelling out money for all the after school enrichment if either the parents were incapable of teaching their own kids (in subjects like STEM which many american parents limited education stops around 7th grade understanding. A lot of room moms I worked with as a room dad literally couldn’t help their kids in math beyond 6th-7th grade. It was pathetic. So they have to pay money to get substandard tutor help, lol….and by the time they get into middle school, usually the kids get wrapped up into being popular that their education falls off a cliff anyway….more money wasted, lol)

Also, from a distance perspective, sending your kids to Bishop School or LJ Country day, it’s a lot closer to do it if you are in 3Roots than CarmelValley. unless of course you are helicopter parent that is too lazy to drop your own kid off at school and have to pay someone to drop your brats off in a bentley at school

Actually, flyer, not sure why you would prefer Carmel Valley over 3 Roots. You can be the biggest fish in the small pond versus being a small fish in the big Carmel Valley pond.

Imagine in 3 roots, being the only guy on the area that complains about how your bentley can’t fit into the substandard garage and applying for a architecture change request with the HOA board to extend your garage just so you can fit your bentley in it… Now, that screams, I’ve got money, you don’t all the rest of you 3 Roots plebians!!![/quote]

The most important thing for health is to be better than those around you. More stressful to be the small fish.

Can always pee and poop in rustic hole outside.

I’m on septic, been fine. Was failing during escrow, required new leach line. Definitely inspect well

[quote=Escoguy][quote=DataAgent]We have 2 non-Tesla EVs and an over-sized rooftop solar array. Our solar panels power our house and both of our cars. We use net-metering and pay no monthly electric bills. We net-up in November. In November of 2020, out total electric bill for the entire year of 2020 and late 2019 was $50. I’m satisfied with a $50 annual electric bill. However, there are members of my local EV Club who spend lots of time trying to get their annual electric bill as close to $0 as possible. Their Zoom presentations bore me to log-off early.[/quote]

I am content with the $16 per month EVTOU5 rate which powers the house/pool and two EVs plus one plug in hybrid. Solar covers the usage. The climate credit brings the annual bill down to approx $150.

The discussion about gas prices bore me so I often go to sleep when it is discussed.[/quote]

Hey I just had a business idea. A gas station with way higher prices…the surplus goes to environmental remediation causes.

Fucking brilliant. It would be high status to gas up there. Middle of l.a. Instagram spot.

Gas station of the stars.

100$ a gallon. 500 a gallon for super unleaded.

Full service though. A PhD in environmental studies cleans the windshield on your ferrari.

Or maybe there are no pumps. Just Jerry cans. Your gas decanted by hand by a petroleum sommelier/engineer.

An anti gas gas station. An on staff hippie protesting fracking. Some asshole kid screaming about bicycles.

Part theatre, part gas station.

Price it so we only need 2 customers a day…

It’s too early to declare victory.
