Bank of America's decided they haven't got a bailout in the last couple of years so they're rebranding ninja loans from pre-2008 as social justice and targeting minorities. https://twitter.com/NBCNews/status/1565070928538701827 dirty shrimp money fucked around with this message at 14:56 on Sep 1, 2022 |

Generally I'm suspicious of a bank move like this, but I'd have to see more details on this before I say BofA is outright trying to screw people. At a minimum, giving out zero closing cost mortgages is a good thing for lower income buyers. If this is to get people in the community to start owning property where they already live, then it's better than everyone renting from a landlord. If this is trying to get low income people to spend more than they can afford, then it's definitely a trap.

Our first mortgage was a no money down, no mortgage insurance first time homebuyer loan from Navy Federal but the rate was higher and they were up both our asses with two hands and a flashlight during underwriting. It worked out fine overall but I’m profoundly skeptical of anything like that from these stupidly predatory banks like BofA or Wells Fargo specifically—particularly when it looks like they’re skimping on verification as a feature. _______ Unrelated but: https://twitter.com/JStein_WaPo/sta...ingawful.com%2F I happen to possess something like empathy as a character trait and thus cannot even dream of voting conservative, but I cannot imagine this would be a winning electoral strategy for them. At this point they’re just self-selecting into a black hole of assholery. LeeMajors fucked around with this message at 15:58 on Sep 1, 2022 |

It's labor day, and folks, I'm getting a bonus tomorrow. It's time I treat myself to a BBQ grill. Any suggestions? I've decided on propane. Trying to find some good sales. I know Weber is the top brand, but wondering if I should plop a lot down for it.

Just replaced a few inner pieces that were rusting out after like... 14? years but the exterior is still going strong. I leave it covered when not in use and it's outside throughout winter, so I'm surprised it's held up as well as it has. Probably whatever the old version of this one is: https://www.weber.com/US/en/grills/gas-grills/smart-grills/spirit-sx-315-smart-grill/46502401.html

They've already internalized FYGM, so "I paid my own student loans back, I didn't get anything forgiven" resonates strongly there. A poll done in mid-August had support for some or all loan forgiveness at 60% for to 34% against. This was for all voters, Republicans were 45-52, so even they are barely against the move. It's not some overwhelming majority, but it's still an overall popular move.

WHAT THE gently caress!?!?! I opened up the shades to see my lovely plants and this was my habenero plant this morning!    The tomato plant and basil plant are just fine and untouched, and there are no leaves on the patio so I didn't think it was a storm (we had a few overnight). We are up high enough that I don't think it was cats (especially since it was a habenero plant with a couple more peppers on it). I know bird eat peppers, but not sure how they ate all the leaves too and even got into it without me noticing. Is there any chance of saving this plant?

People are really good at internalizing things like that as something they earned. "I served in the military, so I earned that GI bill." They don't see it as help, even if it really is.No Butt Stuff posted:You e got yourself a hookworm. Find him and fling him into the sun. I think you mean Hornworm. Hookworm is something entirely different and very bad to have, but a Hornworm will eat your plants right up. I had some last year that were destroying my dill plants. He also looks to be dead center of that last picture. Bird in a Blender fucked around with this message at 19:00 on Sep 1, 2022 |
