I’m currently building a house in PA right now. We experienced a 20-30% increase in materials from when we designed the house in July of 2020 to when we signed the contract in December. We were lucky. As of now our contractors have told us some material costs are approaching 400% increases from pre-COVID. the housing market is crazy right now and I hate to see another housing crash like we experienced in 2000s...
I’ve been watching a video series on youtube about a guy and hot Italian chick spending 4 months last year island hopping along the remote NE Australian coast without resupply, except for fuel.

The amount of plastic garbage they encounter along the high tide line on some of the islands is sad.

“Fell off the ship” is the new “fell off the truck”
“90% is from China.”
But people in Omaha have to stop using plastic straws.
The photo above is called a “oopsie” in nautical terms.
Expected to see the words “climate change responsible” to be found at least once. It was not; disappointment knows no bounds. [/s]
