    I'd like to submit "physicality" and "trickeration" for consideration.

    I love stories about children making a stand and breaking the cycle of generational trauma.

    Why do we care about this now?

    This is CA Franchise Tax Board. International borders are like the buzzing of flies to them.

    Anyone saying that this is the case has never had to deal with the CA Franchise Tax Board. Those fuckers are going to come hard for Ohtani.

    New Allbirds arrived today. Pretty happy with the color.

    Disagree. Small market teams could get creative with financing and defer payments just as much as the big boys. It just requires foresight, planning, and most importantly, discipline. ETA... it also requires a willing party on the other side who can see the value of delayed gratification. i.e. Can I live on a few million a year for the next decade in order to get paid nine figures when I retire?

    Not ready to jump off a cliff yet and say this contract is the end of any semblance of competitive balance in baseball. I fucking hate the Dodgers, but I have to begrudgingly tip my cap for an exceptionally smart approach to setting up a mega-contract for a baseball unicorn. It’s brilliant. Minimize salary cap impacts while taking advantage of the time value of money to get a significant discount at the same time. It really is genius. The really cool thing about it is that it doesn’t box out small markets from making similar moves. Sure, the big guys will take advantage of it until the next CBA puts some limits on it, but there’s nothing stopping a small market from using deferred payments and the benefits of compounding interest to be a little more competitive.

    It was pretty basic, but I'll admit that I laughed at the home shopping network chocolatier sketch.

    Late summer 2020, I was working with an overzealous IT manager (who happened to be a 30-something white dude) who made it his personal mission to change the "IP whitelist" to the "Approved IP" list. It did not take hold.

    My Grandmother (born in the 30s in East Texas) told my wife that she should run down to Dairy Queen and try one of the new "mulattos." Both my wife and I went wide-eyed. I told my grandmother that she couldn't possibly be using the right name, but it turns out that she wasn't too far off.

    Damn, it got dusty in here.

    Point of order... most graduates of ROTC programs receive active commissions, not reserve. The "reserve" in the name is a vestigial carryover from days past.

    I'm coming up on 25 years since my Lasik surgery. I paid cash since the Navy wasn't covering it then if you weren't a pilot. It was tough to swing $4000 at the time, but I'm so glad I did it. Even though I've been back to wearing glasses for the last 7 years, I can still do 99% of my daily activities without them. Absolutely and without question the most satisfying and life-changing money I have ever spent.

    Y’all chill. Jesse Palmer says H2H has to matter. Nothing to see here.

    Are we passing the eye test?
