  1. The funny thing if the actual parent company of SSP LLC is Aptim, their social media presence is littered with "DEI bullshit". If Elon's minions at DOGE get a whiff of this, the contract will probably be clawed back, lulz. And that link redirects to one without DEI in the URL, so they are probably scrubbing all their shit now. https://www.aptim.com/employee-engagement/
  2. There are threads on reddit about this, and I'm leaning to TwiceHorn being correct. Supposedly the SSP LLC registered in Delaware has physical offices in LA: https://sam.gov/opp/502dc5b914254b2d86ebdc138f710a7f/view The parent company of SSP LLC is supposedly Aptim which is also located in Baton Rouge (https://www.aptim.com/services/resilience-and-infrastructure-solutions/oil-and-gas-infrastructure/) and history of government contracts (https://www.highergov.com/awardee/aptim-federal-services-llc-698193214/). The storage folks in Colorado simply seem to share the same name.
  3. 1. I forgot Dan Monson was still coaching. 2. Looked it up and saw he is now HC at eastern washington, just a few miles from where he got it all rolling with Gonzaga. He bolted after two seasons, probably at the first big school that came calling. And then Few stayed for the next 26.
  4. Well "it" was a little too loud and we couldn't hear the fucking dialogue
  5. Are people not dropping mixtapes anymore?
  6. Yeah but he's stupid as fuck. And speaking of, I read the following about Dwight Howard... Lulz. Dude drops $7M to be an owner of the Dream, and then never bothers to go meet the other owners, the team etc....
  7. Why the fuck is this barely sentient butt nugget allowed in the white house? Oh yeah, trump probably likes that thing she does with her tonsils. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/loomer-trump-waltz-nsc-staff-fired-b2726925.html
  8. The operation this guy runs (First American Financial) seems like a decent sized operation. $7B in revenue, ~20K employees. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/virgin-voyages-caribbean-cruise-assault-kenneth-degiorgio-b2726275.html who cares about wearing shoes on a f'n cruise.
  9. I remember when I was growing up, there was all this excitement about the tremendous growth soccer was seeing in the US, and certainty that 30-40 years later, this would result in real homegrown talent. Now here we are and not a single US player makes the top 30 rankings. https://www.espn.com/soccer/insider/story/_/id/44135155/yamal-wirtz-bellingham-lead-espn-39-best-male-players-age-21-under I dont follow international youth soccer at all, so I cant make any comments about who is on the list or whether they are ranked too high or too low. But zero US players is probably not what everyone had in mind after the 94 World Cup in the US. Here's the world rankings since 94 We kind of fucking suck at this soccer thing in the US.
  10. Yeah, I'm sure those 80 million people will finally figure out Trump is a narcissistic toddler with shit for brains. Tomorrow. Tomorrow is the day it will be clear. Because that's how cults work.
  11. Whats ole Warren got cookin' that resulted in his performance deviating from the S&P so drastically the last couple of months? The 3 year chart below shows BRK.A and SPY pretty much tracking and jockeying for the lead for the first 34 months and then BRK.A just dominates the last two? His three largest holdings are AAPL(28%), AXP (17%), and BAC(11%). YTD their returns are AAPL-19%, BAC -13.5%, and AXP -13%. YTD the S&P is only down 9%, so why the hell is the BRK.A outperforming SPX so drastically of late? Are people piling into his funds out of fear so much so that it is distorting the overall performance of Berkshires's holdings? Something seems kind of fucky about that. My instincts would be that this divergence will correct itself eventually, but perhaps not. Like I said, I dont usually pay much attention to BRK.A/B
  12. You know that fucking knob jumped in at $250 a couple of days ago.
  13. Honestly, its a pretty fucking ugly house. There's got to be a better way to spend $7M on real estate in the austin area.
  14. And the rest of the country genuinely believes Chris Beard wanted a raise, especially when Beard initiated contact through intermediaries. Because we aren't stupid fucking rubes.
