In Boynton Beach for example, a two-bedroom, two-bathroom condo at Hunters Run Country Club with access to a resort-style pool and high-end amenities is selling for just $10,000. The owner paid $60,000 for it in 2001. It's now worth $3 per square-foot.

On Marco Island, a one-bedroom, two-bathroom condo complete with water access at Sunrise Bay Resort is listed for $9,000.

In contrast, a newer build nearby on Marco Island with an oceanfront entrance is selling for $629,000.

Please stop sharing this picture of JD Vance. The Vice President is not happy that it's going viral. JD's wife told reporters he is so upset that he hasn't left the couch all day. He's so distraught that he won't even let her go in the room.

Amazon bought Goodreads and turned it into a dumpster fire where "reviewers" trash books even before galleys and review copies are sent out. https://www.thebookseller.com/news/authors-hit-by-bad-reviews-on-goodreads-before-review-copies-are-even-circulated

It's a shame, because Goodreads was a valuable service for authors and readers back when...

It's simpler than that: He's a criminal narcissistic piece of shit who has dragged the apparatus of the US government to his own abyssal level and should be routed around at every opportunity.
