Whomp whomp, now time for his little ass to run back home to Florida to continue to make our state worse, fuck DeSantis.
He's term limited, so not for much longer
I've been voting against the right for 20+ years in this state, they'll just vote for whichever (R) is up next, Nicki Fried might have a shot but I'm not counting on it, either way she's got my vote, or whomever is going against the (R).
i dunno his governorship saw florida cost of living skyrocket. that's hard to overcome.
A lot of these people here are braindead about that stuff, and if they consume right wing media they "know" the problem is "Biden" or at least that's how they'll reason it.
Heard a 20-something on NPR who lived in FL saying she was going to vote for DeSantis because she can’t afford to move out of her parents house, but will vote for Trump now.
Bitch, you for real? You thought DeSantis was your savior, and now you think it’s an actual real estate mogul?
The house I bought in 2015 has tripled in value since then. Most of that before 2020. I moved in 2019 and my new house has seen a similar gain. Not that it matters for me as a homeowner, I can’t afford to sell it because then I have to buy something else, now with a higher interest rate.
I can’t afford to sell it because then I have to buy something else, now with a higher interest rate.
I'm in the same boat now too, and I'm being forced away from my home for work, so now i have to maintain my existing home in FL while living in Atlanta, and somehow my company thinks I'm just supposed to make it all work out. Meanwhile everything was great while working remote until they forced us back into the office, an office I've never worked in as I hired on as remote work.
And I’m not really complaining about the high interest rates either. While I love the interest rate that I refi’d at, I recognize that that was very much an anomaly that I was fortunate to take advantage of, and that the comparatively higher interest rates now were necessary to keep inflation from spiraling out of control even more than it did.
Interest rates now are still, historically, at a rather modest level. Still means that what would otherwise be a very lateral move ends up being much more expensive.
At least 0% interest rate offers on credit cards are plentiful and I can use large (otherwise planned and budgeted) purchases to leverage that against inflation a little more. And some of that is going into refreshing home appliances and sweat-equity improvements, so at least it’s (even if barely) helping to improve the value of my home. Only appliance I haven’t upgraded yet is the range. And considering the energy improvement 0% loans to replace my oil boiler with heat pumps with resistive backups and potentially add solar.
Hope you find a new remote position soon. Hopefully with a nice raise
Already rumors his wife is going to run for Governor in 2026.
Ah yes the bright one that called on women from other states to rush to Iowa to vote for her husband.
Probably pretty hard to run in those lifts, he'll likely have to mechanically stagger back home awkwardly.
Reminds me of the Psychlos from Battlefield Earth. Awkwardly walking slowly through every scene they are in because of the boots/stilts that were part of the costume.

My brother and I thought it would be funny to watch but it's a real slog. It's biggest issue is how boring it is.

Perhaps you meant to reply to something else. I was talking about the John Travolta film.

Haha. We've been meaning to return to Carnival Row anyway so when we finally get to season two I''ll know what you were talking about.
Not the person you were talking with, but it definitely didn't help that Carnival Row halted production for like 3-5 years between seasons, but the ending was pretty satisfying and the series was really cool but sad overall.
Sorry, bad for Florida, but still better than him in the White House.
