It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to [email protected]

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

In many (if not all?) Condos, there are fewer parking spots than units, and the parking spots are deeded separately from the units. So when you buy a condo you don't necessarily get a parking spot, but you can get one separately. For like $100K I guess.

Apparently the average size is 320 sq ft. Which is wild, that's a lot of space being used lmao

If you at least partially include the shared spaces in a parking garage that is needed so you can actually get in and out of your parking space at all times that sounds about right.

In what city without trains is someone paying 100k for a parking space?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

in a city with sufficient trains, the value of a parking space would plummet to a value lower than 100k.

Only if cars stopped being a status symbol.

Lol my landlord offered me a parking spot for $70/mo... in another building a 10 minute walk away.

We must bulldoze the suburbs, burn down all condos, build garden cities with train service only
