Is that not what happens if they're not granted asylum?

Enough that I grabbed my shovel from the shed just in case, but not enough to order preemptive snow day pizza.

Just a note of caution about Rahway, be sure to look up FEMA flood zone maps... and then probably add a couple blocks onto the map.

If I ever get the motivation to sell my house and downsize, I think about some of the condos downtown there but only if it came with an off-street parking spot that wasn't at ground level.

I don't understand why people are so afraid of dispensaries.

Every one that I've been to up in Massachusetts has been super nice.

I mentally divide the state into Western, North, Central, South, and the Shore. I'd put Atlantic Highlands in the Jersey Shore category.

$5 or $1/mile, whichever is more; extra if it's a larger order, the weather sucks, or it's a holiday.

99% of the places I order from are within 2-3 miles of my house at the max.

Two places where I'll probably always wear an N95 mask from here on out... the subway during flu season and any time I have to go to the hospital for an appointment.

Depending on what constitutes "late night," your best bet is probably grabbing a cup of coffee at a local diner.

Absolutely wild that this dude is still in office.

I don't know if I'd compare making pasta from scratch with how easy it is to make pizza sauce. It's literally like opening an extra couple cans, adding seasoning, and mixing it up.

Is there a coherent explanation for why AP African American History "significantly lacks educational value" but AP European History does not?

I am not a food snob by any stretch of the imagination, but I still don't understand why people would use jarred or canned sauce unless you've got some kind of disability that makes it hard to cook. It's super easy to make yourself.

So... where did the money come from that he loaned his campaign?

I know you can't predict the market, but buying with a 3.5% down payment and paying PMI for a couple years rather than waiting until we'd saved up 20% was probably the smartest thing we did. It's a pretty massive difference when you're looking at ~$400k houses and not one that could have been made up for in a few years by brown bagging lunch to work.

We bought in 2018 and then refinanced to get rid of PMI when prices peaked in 2020... if we'd stayed in our apartment and kept saving money, I literally wouldn't be able to afford to buy the house I'm living in today.

1. Became a dual-income, no kids couple
2. Gave up my apartment in the city to move into a relatively inexpensive apartment in Jersey together
3. No vacations and limited luxury spending for a couple years while saving as much as we could
4. Set our budget at something we'd be able to afford on a single income so that we wouldn't be in dire straights if one of us lost our job, took a paycut, or decided to become a stay-at-home parent someday (our happy-medium was 60-70 year-old houses in middle class towns that were move-in ready but dated)
5. Looked at houses in towns we wanted to move to in order to figure out where we could find something that met our needs and was in our price range
6. Made sure we had enough saved for a 3.5% down payment, closing costs, and moving expenses
7. Found a real estate agent
8. Got preapproved by a bank
9. Started looking at houses and putting in offers
10. Eventually had an offer get accepted and not fall apart during the legal review or home inspection periods
11. Closed on the house and became a homeowner

Which hospitals aren't affected?

Thanks to a get-together last week, myself and all of my local friends have the flu, so I'm cooking my favorite meal (baked ziti) and just chilling in front of a video game.

May as well just argue with yourself if you're going to put words in my mouth.

Have a great day!

Librarians aren't monsters, if kids were sitting there crying because their parents were forcing them to attend, they'd stop hosting these events.

Because some kids find it fun, like women who dress up as princesses.

If yours don't, don't take them.

Paris literally can't be built up because it's sitting on hollow ground.

The population of NYC was 122,000 when this building was constructed. It's 8,400,000 today. Need to put people somewhere.

Is the house of historic note?

Blocking change just because buildings are old doesn't exactly seem sustainable when the population is growing every year and housing gets harder and harder to find.

Same as every time temps dip below freezing for +24 hours, double checked that the water is turned off to my outdoor faucets, set an indoor tap to drip, and filled up my car.
