It'd be a bunch of words written on paper.

Yes, this is really about being told what to do. People like freedom, and they don't really care if that freedom kills a lot of people and creates a lot of misery. But at the same time, when a private company puts in rules to provide a safe work environment, they bitch and complain, because they realize they don't have as much sovereignty as they'd like to have.

It appears to be stupidity. This is a protected class nowadays.

I don't know Wisconsin law on this subject, so take this with a grain of salt, but the trial court not allowing evidence of the defendant saying that he wanted to shoot looters seems to me to be devastating to the prosecution's case. I'm curious if the court is committing error there. If there was video of the Pinkerton security guard in the Denver shooting expressing a desire to shoot unruly protesters, should that be excluded?

Lol wtf

NLH question for the board. Say you open early position, say UTG or UTG+1, and you get multiple callers, and the flop is something like T-9-8 or T-9-7 with a flush draw or monotone. How often are you c-betting? If so, with what?

That was my point.

Yes, because everyone has a salary.

xx% of what? Income? Good luck defining income.

This is like watching people drive off a cliff while denying that the cliff is there.

Ummm, we getting a follow up here? He found out.

How reliable are blockers when putting people on ranges in PLO? 5-handed limped pot yesterday, with a pretty passive, easy table. The flop was J diamonds, 8 hearts, 4 diamonds, and I have A-9 of diamonds, J of clubs, 7 of spades. Check, check, I bet 50% of pot with my top top, nut flush draw, and backdoor straight draw, and the cutoff pots it. We're very deep. I didn't know the player very well, but he seemed a bit splashy. What ranges would you put him on? It folded to me and I called. The turn was 7 of hearts, I checked, he bet 60% of pot, and I called. He could have 9-T for a straight, a set, and maybe also a backdoor flush draw. But since I had a 9, I discounted him having 9-T. River was J of spades, giving me the second nuts and blocker to the nuts. I checked, he bet 60% of the pot and instantly folded to a little more than a min check-raise, which surprised me. I don't think he's snap-folding a full house there. He might've bet his straight for value with a plan to fold to any raise with the board pairing. If I had 9-T in his shoes, I would have checked the river. Is that a bad play in the long term? The board was J-8-4-7-J rainbow.

Guess how this story ends.

It takes some guts to argue that vaccine mandates are illegal because of Roe v. Wade.

The problem with some really smart people is they think they know everything.

What does your doctor say?

I’ve had many bank clients and they’re all different. And they all have different special assets officers. Based on my experience, it’s simplistic to say “they just want their money back.” I have a pending litigation case right now where that pretty clearly isn’t true. I started doing foreclosures in 2009, after the financial crisis, and have been clamoring for foreclosure reform since then. Nothing has changed in the last twelve years.

I’m a bank lawyer dude.

And they should. But the problem is they don’t want to sell, and in Texas we can do a nonjudicial foreclosure very quickly.

Because the banks make more money that way.

Is the lawn okay? Did it ever get mowed?

Many Texans seem to think that if someone is trespassing on your land you can kill them at will.

I've posted before about this QAnon girl I know who lives in California. She's 45. We were having our monthly discussion on the vaccines and the state of the world, and she told me that she spends a lot of time crying. Which is not surprising, but I hadn't really thought of it before. I hadn't considered what it must be like to: 1. Actually believe that Trump actually won all 50 states, including California, but because of voter fraud the Communist Joe Biden is President. 2. Actually believe that Satan-worshiping pedophiles are in charge of our country. 3. Actually believe that the vaccine is designed to kill people. 4. Actually believe that Covid is fake and hospitals are killing people. 5. Actually believe that Donald Trump is some kind of successful businessman. When you think about it, it's quite sad. She's trapped in her own head.

Ammo is useless if you don't use it.

A problem with guns is they're a lot of fun and people look for opportunities to use them when they shouldn't.
