I used to pay for Hulu live tv but decided I wasn’t getting enough out of it and bought a Roku instead. Now that I have it with free apps like PBS, crackle, freevee, tubi, Plex, Pluto, xumo, and a few others plus a few paid subscriptions like peacock, paramount, and basic Hulu, I have more content than I know what to do with for a fraction of what I was paying for live tv ($85/month in addition to my internet bill). It wouldn’t be possible without very fast and reliable Internet however.

The council is the petition’s intended audience, not the building owner. The council has invested money to improve the area before so there’s a chance the increased public pressure makes a real difference behind the dais. They could end up helping the owner demolish the building or offload it to someone who wants to fix it up, without losing private money, for the purpose of benefiting the public.

Like that EF3 tornado that came out of nowhere today in eastern NC. That’s basically unheard of, especially in July. We didn’t even have a severe weather threat. And it destroyed a significant portion of a Pfizer production facility that supplies 30% of injectables for the US. So that will surely have lasting impact beyond ENC. What are the chances? Not all that slim anymore unfortunately

I’m glad your dog is ok and the neighbor seemed to learn their lesson. Too bad it had to happen like that. When OP said “in other countries” dangerous animals attack cats I immediately thought of dogs as a threat to cats anywhere. We are in the US in an urban area and there are also owls, hawks, tics, poisonous snake, all which pose a potential threat to outdoor cats.

I started by talking to my bank (a credit union) to get pre-qualified. I recommend it as a first step. They will tell you how much you are qualified to borrow, which is not necessarily what you can afford or would be comfortable with. Keep in mind insurance and taxes will be needed along with the monthly mortgage payment. My credit union had a first time homebuyers program which was a huge help. I can share more details about that if you’re interested. Plenty of old timer agents will jump at the opportunity to take advantage of a first time homebuyer.

Once you are pre qualified, find a real estate agent. They will help you with the rest. Do your research and be skeptical of the big local firms. I found an agent who worked in my town occasionally, but wasn’t part of the local political circlejerk (it’s small city in the south but I’m sure this is an issue everywhere).

Or pressured into taking plea deals without advice of counsel for the sake of closing cases.

Same. It just says 429 for me. I can’t believe it’s really gone!
