So investors are buying up Black neighborhoods - this does not bode well. Can you spell displacement, gentrification, and generalized racist fuckery?

Gift article, at no cost to first 10.

Last year, 30 percent of home sales in majority Black neighborhoods were to investors, compared with 12 percent in other Zip codes, The Post’s analysis shows.
Americans need more homes. IF investors want to invest, let them build new housing, not take the current housing off the market

This person is unwell. Image
1. Google "Blue Stack" and Jilani is the only person to use the term. There is a company that makes something that allows Android games to run on PCs. So he invents a term around which to conspiracize.
2. This person actually believes there major corporations and progressive activists are conspiring with folks in the media and in government to marginalize ideological opponents. Excuse me, but they are ideological opponents of each other.

I remember when Jonathan Turley became "famous." It was during the whole Clinton impeachment brouhaha and he was the pro-impeachment legal expert arguing that Clinton need not have committed a crime. His expertise was environmental law
He argued against environmental regulations. He was not an impeachment or constitutional law expert, but he was the most important thing, available. Always available. And he said what they wanted to hear - impeach Clinton.
Of course, he was against impeaching Trump who actually committed crimes because moral malleability is the primary qualification of being a Republican lawyer. But seriously, I never thought he was as ignorant as he showed himself to be today.

Does anyone know why so many of the game ads are so awful. So I do "Happy Color" and solitaire on my Kindle & there are ads for Lily's Garden, Matchington Mansion, etc that show a pregnant woman being cheated on and going off to a dilapidated money pit in a snow storm with infant
Why would that scenario make me want to play the game? It really makes me want to break things. I will never play the Homescapes, Garden, etc games because of this shit.
Then there are the 4patriots ads for MREs to last x months...and they show them being cooked in the kitchen. The stove works but not the fridge?

Not to mention 4 patriots is such a polarizing name and you know they're insurrectionists who think treason is patriotism

I know journalism is unlike other professions in critical ways but one way baffles me because it seems counterproductive to their employers and to society. It is a damaging difference that privileges reporters in ways that cause active and substantial harm to the country
If Maggie Haberman or Bob Woodward worked for 3M and if, in the course of their regular job, they learned something or discovered something, that discovery would belong to 3M to decide what to do with it.
If they decided to sell it later to someone else to profit from it, they would be sued and 3M would win. After all, they were paid to do the work and saving it for later cheats their employer.
