My professional experience (as a financial counselor) is that many of the lower income (โ€œpoorโ€) clients I work with are much better at budgeting and managing their finances than many of the โ€œrichโ€ clients I encounter.

My mom was definitely Team Roux as well. Iโ€™m certain itโ€™s part of what made her mac and cheese so good!

Feel like this is something they should have been doing for a long time now. Might even move me to give up my 2014 MacBook Air!

But now I wonder just how principled a stand WAS it really? Any SF politician who would come out against marriage equality would surely lose an election in the city.

Heck no, itโ€™s not too much! ๐Ÿ‘

Happy birthday! I too find myself ambivalent about leaving my house if I donโ€™t have a reason I need to do so.

Tacos are a sign that God loves us and wants us to be happy! ๐ŸŒฎ

100%. I just refer to him as Putin's useful idiot.

I mean what did they think they were even watching? Because Star Trek is pretty much fully automated luxury (sometimes gay) space communism!

And this same advice applies at every taqueria I have ever been to, not just Chipotle. ๐ŸŒฏ

Goodness! ๐Ÿ‘€ You're gonna need a *large* coffee after that! Might want to even add a shot of espresso.

My take: At the city level he was aligned with the Democratic machine that usually runs SF. At the state level I think he has benefitted from running against Republicans who are far too right-wing to win statewide.

Nope, you have it exactly right! Heโ€™s been that way from the start of his political career in San Francisco up until now.

Agree with you. My brother is an excellent example - no 4 year degree, but heโ€™s had a good career as a machinist and is no dummy. OTOH, Mullin is an idiot!

Yes, definitely! ๐Ÿป

The upside is that it would raise the average Senate IQ by at least a few points, at least temporarily.

I could say the same about my parish as well. First Things seems to be just stuck in the 1970s in their mindset.

I would consider myself to be in the โ€œreconstructionโ€ phase of my faith journey and am glad to be at a church where this is 100% supported.

What? There are reality TV Pentecostals now? I guess I miss out on these things by (mostly) not watching TV these days.

Mostly this thread is confirming my decision to become a vegetarian was a good one. ๐Ÿ˜‚

I did not see this coming. But I like it!

Just saw this post. I have not changed my taste for coffee one bit on a GLP-1. The main change for me is that I am much less hungry most of the day. Sometimes I have to even force myself to eat a meal.

That was a large part of why I never got a bike when I lived in SF. I would definitely have been into the idea of biking to work when I worked in the Financial District, but I felt it would be too dangerous given all the factors you cited.

As they should be! Because debt slavery is not something to look forward to!

Not surprising to me. Hatch green chile usually improves what it is added to!

Be careful what you ask for! ๐Ÿ˜‚

I also got my refunds rather quickly. Filed on a Sunday and both were direct deposited by the following Thursday.

I will say that in my brief exposures to the CEB, I have not really cared for how it reads and is heard in church. I personally would still prefer the NIV among contemporary-language translations. But this version of the CEB looks like it would be a good one for CEB users to have.

And it definitely works for you! I especially like the plaid shirt.
