  1. I agree. It's not the fall that kills you.
  2. It's called crowding out. There is clearly a market for what is obviously a good product. How can a private sector entity compete for the same audience with an entity that gets a huge government subsidy? Government is the self licking ice cream cone.
  3. I don't vote. They're all assholes.
  4. The federal government borrows about 40 cents of every dollar it spends.
  5. According to PBS, they receive less than 2% of their funding from the government. So perhaps the price will go up slightly.
  6. In what world is Big Bird not commercially viable?
  7. The money doesn't exist. It's being printed. You could cut literally any spending and I would be in favor of it. But spending $500 million for upper middle class entertainment is particulary egregious. We are going to have to learn to live without luxuries. And by luxuries, I mean Social Security and most forms of discretionary spending. It's a mild inconvenience for you if eggs go up to $6. It's existential if you make $15 per hour.
  8. Who does the money printing hurt? Hint: it's not me.
  9. Cool. Then pay for it. It's a free country, you can stop freeloading off other people. There is no reason to steal from the poor to fund your entertainment.
  10. 1k gets less impressive by the day. I will get in but we haven't found the bottom yet.
  11. If you think soinflation was 21% I want some of what you are smoking.
  12. I get that. I just think maybe there was some acting. Maybe.
  13. I hated the change but it was amazing. I love course, up the hill and right past the Moulin Rouge and Sacre Couer. I thought it was exciting when I was like "This is where they filmed the John Wick 3 finale". This was next level. Incidentally, Tadej let Wout have it.
  14. That's alternate timeline Will Smith.
  15. While missing blocks can kill a run game for sure, it helps that our over the top game will be scary, and Arch can run it. I agree with the overall level of concern, it is our least experienced unit. So there is volatility. However, 50/50 we could end up being better by the end of the year. I mean, the O-line got unceremoniously roasted both times against Georgia. All we need is average against out strongest opponents.
  16. He's right. We'll be lucky just to get in field goal range.
  17. Arose is also my first word.
  18. Paypal will soon allow payment using 97 cryptos. I think that 97 cryptos shows they don't know what they are doing, and I also think they are going out of business before long. Anyway, the payment rails are being built now. I am installing cypto payments on my website, and even though it's first gen technology I am cutting my processing payment by 1%, understanding it will eventually be completely free. Everything from Zelle to ACH to Western Union is getting replaced with the blockchain. https://fortune.com/crypto/2025/07/28/paypal-100-cryptocurrencies-accept-merchants-bitcoin-ethereum/
  19. Quinn is gonna be Putin up big numbers in Miami!!!!!!
  20. To be clear what I meant by this. We are talking about practice. And I am so fucking excited I almost can't control myself.
  21. The cenobites freaked me the fuck out.
