It looks like they haven’t sold it, original buyer (some music studio in dubai) owns it
We have a local storefront that’s been closed for years but people (maybe the owner or with permission from since it’s so consistent?) set up multiple chess tables in front of it most days and it’s always wholesome to pass people playing on an otherwise rather depressing city street.
In 6 years my partner and I have paid more in rent for our 1 bedroom (below market rate, bare minimum maintenance) apt than the landlord paid for the entire 16 unit building in 1997.
Zillow estimates about $100 a month in property taxes for the building
8 yearold me would not have been able to grasp your position and 30 yearold me can’t either. Guess I’m too soft to compromise on ethnic cleansing.
Well my US public school system spent 75% of history class and 25% of English class on the Holocaust so I’m actually feeling really well prepared for this section, the trick is not to go along with genocide if your country is supporting it
The old Chiquita one with a gun on it is more honest
Hmm well the executive decisions on her part are definitely a problem then. Personally in this situation I would want to stabilize expectations by getting at least a rough outline on paper. Sit down with her and say something like “lately I’ve been feeling overwhelmed and trapped in my job—like I have the whole weight of the family on my shoulders etc. I know you’re still (understandably) working through some things and I want to continue to support you and I trust that you will follow through and rejoin the workforce in the next couple months like we discussed but I’m disappointed from having to turn down a job that I would have enjoyed and it would really help my own mental health if we had a bit more of a concrete plan so I can see a light at the end of the tunnel and have a plan in place to let go of this awful job that takes up so much extra time. What do you envision yourself doing? Here’s what I have been thinking about for myself, put together does that feasibly support our family or do we need to massage the plan?
The financial planning has also been getting to me and it would really help me out if we came up with a fixed budget for the next couple months. Your dad’s estate gives our family a chance to establish some lasting financial stability (or kids college or whatever it may be) if we play our card’s right and I don’t want us to squander the opportunity by living above our current household income and regret it later.”
Even if you’re not feeling like a team lately I think it’s important to keep a lot of we’s and us’s in there—the future is something you are planning together.
If you two sat down and agreed to let her take a year to heal I don’t think it’s appropriate or healthy to second guess that partway through. If it’s not financially feasible even with her parent’s estate offsetting the cost some then you’ll need to sit down again and discuss that. If the cost of the concert would make a real difference ofc she should cancel, but if you’re just upset she is not pulling her weight right now despite agreeing to a career break (not uncommon after the death of a parent biological or not). I think you should try to be supportive and trust that more opportunities will come up for you even if it’s not the most efficient route.
It’s just a marketing joke like iHop did a few years ago
If you make memes this is a good place to get an unfried version of this one I guess
