You know what? So it's hot today. Not cgod hot, but 105. Fifth day in the history of Seattle to break 100 degrees, first time in history to do it two days in a row. There's also COVID. What a time to be alive. My mother-in-law headed to the library to cool off. I guess it's quite comfy in there. Only she overheard a conversation between a couple librarians where one said "what should we do? We're running out of chairs!" to which the other responded "that means we're over capacity." What do you think they did? Do you think they turned people away? Lemme show you one of my favorite properties at the moment. Lovely, right? $125k of riverfront. Only... Dude the river ate your house. Do you really think it's going to stop now? Screamin' deal, though, right? "Blank pallets of seclusion" are 2021, man. 'cuz here's the thing - the river was about to eat that house for decades. Guaranteed there were no permits issued after 2012 when FEMA redid the flood map. Now? Now the whole parcel is unbuildable, guaranteed. Thing is going to be a former cliff hovering over a riverbed by 2025. And I guarantee you they were staying in that house until the bitter fuckin' end 'cuz I'll bet it was lovely right up to the part where it started creaking. The first neighborhood in Miami to dig canals wins. The sea level in Miami has risen about as much as the sea level in Venice. Storms are gonna get worse, sure. Flood insurance will go away eventually. But it's gonna get full Waterworld before then. They'll just abandon the bottom floors of things that won't rot away and get there by boat. They'll build elevated sidewalks so you can get from the water taxi to the Chanel boutique without getting your Manolos wet. And everyone will remark on it and continue in their orbit because it's too big to stop now and we all know it. Those pumps? Those pumps exist because someone said "do something" and since no one has any idea how to do anything useful we're all just pretending. They're pretending it works, we're pretending that we think anything will actually change. What is Miami, anyway, except Bangladesh with more money?
