  1. Maybe they should have traded zion after all...
  2. Next week I am flying them SFO -> AUS with 2 cats. They won't take the cats in cargo. We will see how that goes...
  3. Now I am in the cycle where the new job is asking me to fill out payroll forms. But you can get a UK bank until you have a house and you can't get a house until you have a bank. I was trying monzo, but ever an online bank wants you to be in the UK with a house. I was able to get a UK phone number at least.
  4. Yeah. It was just one sequence. He had 2 long three bricks followed by a missed drive fall-away. Besides that 1 minute stretch, he played great. I believe Bridges hit 2 threes during this stretch also.
  5. 1973 was the last year wages and taxes were really balanced. It was peak times. Then in 1980 the wealth divided really pushed forward with the trickle down theft. Meanwhile, the minimum wage has barely increased in most places. It's been 16 years since Texas gave a small boost to $7.25 an hour despite the economy booming.
  6. I'm not seeing a 10% increase. Maybe the Russian index?
  7. The thing I can't grasp with Gobert is how bad/weak his hands are. He can't hold the ball for more than a second without fumbling it away and of someone even gets a finger on his shot it's going off the backboard. It seems like you can work on that.
  8. Toppin with the dagger. Haliburton. 32/13/15
  9. Very good and tough game. Both teams giving it max effort
  10. Haliburton is shooting them into trouble. Needs to calm down
  11. I think it's pretty black and white
  12. Agree. But It's the same thing however. The people around Biden were trying to help him because he was the president. It's thier duty. It's also a hard thing to look at a macro view when your job is mostly micro. Imagine what would have happened if Biden had stepped down. Fox News would have went extra nuts. Kamala would have never had a chance. There would have been woke and DEI accusations flying. I woukd bet she would have been impeached within a few weeks. If FDR stepped down, then our whole alliance would have possibility have been threatened. FDR was the only one who could keep Churchill and Stalin from stabbing each other.
  13. Thai man, 35, throws grenade at ex-girlfriend's house when she refused to get back with him, dies in the blast https://mothership.sg/2025/05/thai-man-throw-grenade-ex-girlfriend-house-dies/ *never pick up a grenade you've pulled the pin and thrown
  14. George Russell bringing the heat. I'm starting to like this guy. -----// "We definitely need to have a real think about what the solution is here in Monaco," "I appreciate trying something this year for two stops. Clearly, it did not work at all. For all of the drivers, qualifying is the most exhilarating moment of the weekend. "Do we accept that there should be no race? And it's a qualifying race. You do one on Saturday, one on Sunday. And the guy who qualifies pole gets some points. He gets a little trophy. And the one on Sunday gets some more points. "Because that's what we love most. I think that's what you guys enjoy watching the most. And 99% of the other people in Monaco are here sipping champagne on the yacht, so they don't really care."
  15. Many people consume NBA content outside of watching games. Ratings are not nearly as important as they were 20 years ago.
  16. That was my grandparents (minus the union). They worked thier lives at Russell Mills in Alexander City, Alabama. All of thier kids worked thier also except my mom who went off to college. Then... Now... Those jobs aren't coming back...the Billionaire class had to eat...
  17. Before Biden there were no illegals and no crime. I remember the days when a white man would make my street taco on Guadalupe.
  18. You shall have no other gods before Me. You shall not make idols. You shall not take the name of the LORD your God in vain. Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. Honor your father and your mother. You shall not murder. You shall not commit adultery. You shall not steal. You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor. You shall not covet.
  19. Ant in the finals woukd be awesome. He is still very young and has a chance to be a big part of league marketing for the next decade.
  20. THC ban is heading to Abbotts desk to sign. Woukd kill entire industry while boosting big pharma. With the upcoming destruction of Medicare it's going to mean more pain and financial ruin for people like the elderly and veterans.
  21. “It was the Pit Bosses problem, not Trumps. And those waitresses, I kept telling them one ice cube per drink. Not 2! Can you believe it? Why does someone need 2 cubes? And then the cleaning people. I was told they expected, what they like to call, a paycheck every 2 weeks. I know a lot of guests left valuables in the rooms, but they were never satisfied with just that. They wanted what I’m calling a salary. That’s a word I just came up with.”
  22. Why not just tax corporations and billionaires? Nah…
