That these cretins are still clinging to their fucking Matrix / red pill metaphor like a decade after the Wachowskis came out as trans should tell you everything you need to know about how much internal sense any of their ideas make.
Hey CNN, you dropped the most important value there buddy. I see median new construction is still 200k+ more than I can afford so…
WHAT’S THE PRICE!?
I don’t for one single millisecond believe that these “starter houses” will come with starter prices. You know, the whole goddamn reason we can’t buy anything…
There are signs those efforts might be helping buyers get in the door: The median sales price of existing homes jumped to $426,900 in June, according to the National Association of Realtors, while the median price of new homes in June was $417,300, according to the US Census Bureau.
I did read and it’s in my comment (in the form of “it’s 200k+ more than I can afford” referring to their median quote). They specifically say the median price of new homes, they didn’t specify these “starter homes” that the article is supposed to be about.
Sounds right to me. Nazis invaded Europe, tried to take over the world, and slaughtered millions in gas chambers. The US military should be deployed to arrest or neutralize Nazis whenever they appear.
They will give any excuse that can gin up to return to the days of the Fed basically giving out free money that they can go gamble with. The effects on the broader economy be damned.

Sort of… CBD isn’t, and anyway I imagine the exclusion of cannabis won’t be around much longer. There are many studies that show it has no impact on athletic performance.
CBD was unfortunately on the ban list when he got in trouble. It was only just removed a decade later in 2019.
It’s also one of the few chemicals in cannabis that can affect performance, unlike THC which just bugs me. Like they are almost picking and choosing, purely to just be finicky
I think the window for the testing is what matters more. Whatever they do off-season is their business, as long as its not in their system during training and competition
Despite what some weirdos think doping has a very specific colloquial definition. It indicates performance enhancing substances. Drugs that give you an edge in competition. As pot does not do that it’s clearly not the point. Everyone on Earth knows what Phelps is talking about here.
In February 2009, a photograph of Phelps using a bong went viral; this resulted in the loss of Kellogg’s as a sponsor, as well as a three-month suspension by USA Swimming. Phelps admitted that the photo, which was taken at a party at the University of South Carolina, was authentic. He publicly apologized, calling his behavior “inappropriate”.[286]

Isn’t the idea of banning doping in the Olympics to deal with people using banned substances while actively competing? That is to say, even though Phelps uses weed, has he tested positive during an active competition for being on weed (or any other substance)?
What competitors do in their off time is fine as far as I’m concerned. But if they’re using right before or during actively competing, then I can see where it’s a problem. No?

With all due respect, you are conflating what somebody does in their personal time with doing something to cheat in a sporting event (the topic at hand). Despite Phelps having made some poor social and legal choices, his stance on zero-tolerance to doping in sporting events is no less relevant. What you’re suggesting is a red herring.
He won 28 Olympic medals. He’s the most decorated Olympian of all time. I think his career was fine. But no random internet person tell us more about what Michael Phelps should have done to be a better swimmer. LOL.
Literally Sha’Carri Richardson was banned from competing in the Tokyo Olympics by the US Anti-Doping Agency because she smoked weed to help cope with the death of her mother. You’re making a big deal arguing that something that really does actually happen doesn’t for some reason.
Athletes who compete on an international level don’t have off time.
They’re training year-round, and there’s a lot of performance enhancing drugs that speed up recovery during the training season. Faster recovery gives the athlete more time to train, which enhances their performance during competition.
When asked for comment about the latest video falsely showing Harris garbling her words, Trump spokesman Steven Cheung doubled down on the content, claiming that the obviously phony video was authentic.(“Your phone or computer must be fucked up,” he said.)
We’re just so far beyond the point where you should be honoring “titles” like official spokesperson and engaging with these people. That Cheung guy hates himself so fucking much, what a goon https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/20495aa3-1b02-4db1-b734-aebd783be0ba.jpeg. This guy has a one way ticket to the “first they came for…” point of the fascism party. He probably proudly wears a shirt that says “I’m one of the good ones!”
Dangerous for media to try to “business as usual” interact with these psychotic fucks though. Just look at that response… We really are just monkeys that are easily confused by suits somehow suggesting legitimacy.

The American media really is a danger at this point. They’re wholly owned by corporate and billionaire interests and amplify the narratives that will get Trump elected.

“Have you never had a favourite couch? That perhaps you think about sometimes. Imagine how you would feel if they took it away. You answer your door and it’s some removal men. Is it wrong to even have a favourite couch? That’s what they want you to believe. They want to remove all couches for chairs in a great replacement act. Some say they want to teach kids about dressing up your couches, making them look different in different situations. What if you wanted your couch to be blue instead of brown. This is the future they want for us.”
