That’s bad but you’re not screwed. Just stop doing that. Get some Tupperware, put it in the fridge between uses.

Our ancestors took storage measures right away, salting meat, putting root vegetables in the root cellar…

Yeah, sure. Actual data makes me a clown. You’re entitled to your opinion

You’d need census data to back that up.

Edit to add, you’d need to see which definition the government is using because household has a census definition and an IRS definition.

This is missing a picture of an American shipyard and an ice cream barge. The Japanese really didn’t have a hope of winning. We were adding multiple aircraft carriers per year to the fleet, and more each year than the last. So they’d sink one and it would be replaced by 3 more.

The MG 34 wasn’t as big a win as people think it is. It was a better belt fed weapon than the 1919 30 cal. But that’s because we were focusing on offensive support weapons while they were focusing on defensive ones. Thus we made the BAR and deployed it to as many squads as we could. They made the MG 34 and 42, which were better defensive weapons.

They did have a big issue though, they used too much ammunition. Modern GPMGs fire at half or even a third the ROF. (The MG 42 could do 1500 rounds a minute!) This not only had a bad effect on supply but also severely shortened their barrel life in combat.

Over all it seems hard to pick out the difference between a GPMG and a SAW these days but that BAR/MG 34 difference is where it’s rooted.

Katrina was a man made disaster. It would not have taken a tenth of the lives it did if the levees had been maintained.

That’s like a 2 year period in an 18 year living situation.

I’m going to go with the actual statistics here. Not this blog post.

Apparently it’s you, literally.

Civil Asset Forfeiture, fleeing felon rule, subjective reasons for searches, qualified immunity…

Pretty much everything that allows for selective enforcement of laws.

In graphs like these it is very much all smushed together. Otherwise they’d need a 3d plot.

If you want to get really technical too, liberalism and socialism have giant grey overlap areas. Classical Liberalism wasn’t just about personal freedom, but also government by the people, for the people. Which is a collective good and freedom.

It’s not nearly so easy as labeling one person a leftist and another a liberal. So above I use leftist in it’s colloquial meaning of getting less conservative, literally moving to the left.

Oof yeah. That wasn’t why we left the fire prone area we used to live in, but it sure didn’t hurt the decision to move.

Mesa is one of those places they put several man made lakes in to make people think they could do watersports in their housing development. And in reality it just humidifies the heat and breeds mosquitos.

That’s not nearly the normal though. Dual income households are the norm by far.

Well that’s a flat out lie. CoreLogic straight up tells anyone willing to read that investors own 20-30 percent of housing in every state. And they’re 30 percent of the purchasing for houses on the market every month.

He’s so cute though! Like a giant, evil, hamster.

I knew there was something wrong with my place in Phoenix, AZ. Dang Democrats stole the forest!

No no we know people are buying houses. It’s just hard to compete when that person is Black Rock and they bought an entire development before it even hit the market.

The last time we moved we actually did this. Kept us from paying more bills to commute longer. I highly recommend figuring out your monthly gas/mass transit bill and adding that to the price of places you’re comparing.
