loving billionaire needs to be forced to sign acceptance of liability of any forseeable issue (fire) so the families of the students that die can go after him directly. But then the day after the fire the courts will limit settlements to a $500 Applebee's gift card and half a box of Blow-pops.

Your internal answer to this question will basically determine the bill's quality: when will Democrats ever do that? The bill/framework really isn't that bad, there's plenty of good poo poo in it: https://twitter.com/alexburnsNYT/status/1454118335679971330?t=gh_6PHyPzIahuEjjuVJpRw&s=19 https://twitter.com/BenjySarlin/status/1454097987949453319?t=iTQe5UkUz7akIAA8FwId3Q&s=19 That is a Shitload Of loving Money for climate/Pre-K/child care, though nowhere near what it *should* be in a Democratic Congress. The bill is more or less being judged by what's been pulled out instead of what's still in. What's in is absolutely insufficient, but it's not even close to nothing. It'll bring the value of a Democratic Congress to about $5T worth of spending, which wouldn't have existed in a Republican Congress. The alternative is to wait for the next Democratic Congress, with proper progressives in it, and the outlook for that sure doesn't look Great. House probably flips in 2022, Senate map is brutal in 2024, and half-a-loafism isn't exactly going to suddenly turn the country Democratic in the long run.

You got to choose your toilets in basic? gently caress. We were lucky we only got banned from the urinals for a few days or something after someone shaved their pubes in one and left it wrecked. One guy in my phase I was in a basic flight with a female MTI who banned urinal use for the duration of basic.

Cross-posting from the OSHA thread, it looks like a smaller scale version of the prototype City Block was built by the same billionaire at U of Mich Ann Arbor back in 2015: https://housing.umich.edu/residence-hall/munger/    https://news.umich.edu/munger-graduate-residences-opens-at-university-of-michigan/ quote:ANN ARBOR—The new Munger Graduate Residences at the University of Michigan is set to open Aug. 1. Of course the exact same talking point and exact same concerns get raised with it. https://www.insidehighered.com/news/2013/09/24/michigan-grad-students-object-details-new-housing-unit quote:Graduate students typically don't live in luxury, let alone in space that has intellectual goals. Many grad students feel fortunate to have housing that is reasonably safe and affordable. So why would graduate students at the University of Michigan be raising objections to one of the most ambitious ideas in recent years for graduate student housing? For starters, many say that while some social engineering may be normal for housing college freshmen, they object to the idea of the university -- which has control of so much of their professional life -- telling them where to live, and with whom.

facialimpediment posted:With rooms this tiny, I bet the sounds would bleed through headphones connected to the laptop and there really isn't room for a TV This reminds me of my "college search" days back in the late 90s. I got roped into looking at Lynchburg College in *Lynchburg, VA* because they were offering a full ride (which made my mother all  ) and they rather proudly showed off their dorm rooms...which looked like prison cells. There was a single window that was SMALLER than the one shown in this image, the cinder block walls were coated and painted *dental white* and lit with phosphorescent light...I just peaced out of the tour right then and there. It was bad enough that Lynchburg also hosts Liberty University, and walking around the downtown area at 6pm was the eeriest feelings I've ever had as the you could hear a goddamned pin drop for how quiet it was save for the gentle 'whoosh' of passing cars. I also turned down Villanova because we were told that because of a housing shortage, "singles were doubles, doubles were triples, triples were quads, and quads are Walmarts."

The only way an entirely interior dorm room would work is if at least one wall featured an OLED screen that could function as a virtual window, and even then, you're trusting that teenagers aren't going to damage it. This is just another example of "I'm rich, so that means I'm kinda-sorta an expert in everything."

The UCSB Munger is more like WHAT IF MORE BIGGER, LESS SPACE FOR FLESHY MEATBAGS? The main difference between the UM Munger and UCSB Munger seems to be that they went one extra fractal step: all the UM Munger individual rooms lack windows but the shared common area has some on the outside wall, whereas the USCB Munger both the rooms and common area lack windows - you have to go out into the 'House' common area shared by eight suites of eight dorms to get to a room that has windows. It also looks like they cut down the size of the individual rooms on the USCB version to squeeze in an extra room per suite. Just going by the stated sizes and occupancy levels: UM Munger: 380,000 sq ft / 630 = 603 sq feet per resident UCSB Munger: 1,680,000 sq ft / 4,500 = 373 sq feet per resident And those numbers presumably count all the common area / lobby / hallway / etc space.
