  1. Crypto douchebags are just the descendants of Dutch Tulip investors, pets.com hodlers, and MBS speculators. Talk shit incessantly on the way up, then disappear when the bubble bursts.
  2. Negged unfairly? The motherfucker continually circumvents the ignore feature and posting rules by creating countless usernames. Fuck him and fuck you.
  3. Another factor in my longevity is the fact that my job is sedentary. I realized recently that this year marks 20 years of having jobs that have me sitting at a desk for 40+ hours per week, and for the last 10 years I’ve worked from home so I’m not even commuting or walking around an office to socialize. There’s a lot of recent research that shows that’s a significant risk factor, even if you control for exercising and maintaining a healthy weight (and a recent article said standing desks aren’t really the answer). I probably only have another 7-12 years of work left. But I have been thinking more and more about changing careers to do something more active (although I’m not at all sure what that would be).
  4. Great thread and timely as the bulk of the posters on the site are transitioning into being olds. I consider the 5 pillars of longevity to be genetics, sleep, exercise, diet, and stress. So I focus on the 4 of those I can control while being aware of the implications of the one I can’t control. TLDR: I am good at maintaining a healthy weight thru diet/exercise and getting plenty of sleep. I am bad at stressing out over little shit and eating too much junk food.
  5. I like Breggy, but Adames is the better baseball player when projecting 2025-2030.
  6. This might sound really stupid, and I think it might be, but I think the next Democratic nominee for president should say the word “fuck” and its variants a lot. Nothing would wipe away the stigma that Dems talk down to people faster. ”These rich motherfuckers like Musk are fucking us! They been fucking us and they won’t stop fucking us until we take back control from the motherfuckers. It’s time to show these motherfuckers we are not fucking around!!!”
  7. Dems need to abandon identity politics and do a better job of making their message about class vs race and gender. They also need to be much more aggressive about demonizing rich people. The deficit issue is ripe to seize back the narrative because the GOP hasn’t and won’t do anything about it. Same for immigration. Like yall said, the takeaway from Trumps wins is that you can either be in the right, or you can win, not both. Sad as it is to say, America is not ready to focus on gender issues, and race issues are still fragile. You have to get the idiots to think they’ll be richer with you in office, because that is really all they care about. I have no faith the Dems will fix their problem. They don’t appear to have anyone in their bullpen who appears charismatic enough to do what has to be done. If Mayor Pete were straight, he’d be a contender. But a gay man or minority woman will not win the presidency anytime before 2036.
  8. Fuck whoever that poster was who incessantly posted that GA was in the bag for Harris.
  9. I’m so mad at you right now. I fucking trusted you! Somebody needs to shut the fuck up. Might be the Pollyanna motherfuckers who had their trip to fucking Chilis all planned out before shit even started.
  10. Fuck that bitch who said Harris was winning Iowa
  11. I don’t understand how Barack Obama won in this country. He must’ve caught errbody off guard and all the sexists and racists woke up and they’re never going back to sleep.
  12. Best case is 2020 with NC flipped. That is not the rebuke of Trump we needed. The motherfucker tried to incite his followers to overthrow the fucking government.
  13. This is not what you were saying would happen
  14. Calling Florida this early wipes away any hope of a great American redemption.
  15. I have read a bit about The Great Wealth Transfer, it’s one of the top 4-5 things I think will define American society over the next 20 years. I’ve already seen several people close to me have their lives significantly altered by being included or excluded in a will; these aren’t even rich people or people with rich relatives. But even to a middle class person, a $100k+ windfall can be enormous. For me, I just reslly really really hope everyone older than me who is close to me lives long enough and lavishly enough to die nearly penniless. Money does crazy shit even to good people. And even to people who don’t need or care about money, getting fucked over in an estate affects all the relationships involved.
  16. Trammell is a lefty bat who has hit righties fairly well and can play CF. Might be a good platoon mate for Meyers or McCormick. One interesting thing is that he’s out of options. Cabbage, who was DFA to make room (and claimed by the Pirates) still had an option remaining (and had some experience at 1B). As long as it was just minimal cash going to NY then it’s a fine swap. But it does look like they expect him to make the opening day roster.
  17. Word on the street is the Astros offer to Bregman was $156M/6yrs and was based on topping what Matt Chapman signed for with the Giants; Chapman is a year older but is coming off a better year. It is a “competitive” offer although I will be shocked if Bregman accepts it.
  18. My final update: USA: Harris +6 NM Harris +5 MI Harris +4 PA Harris +4 WI Harris +2 NC Harris +2 GA Harris +1 AZ Harris +1 NV Trump +0 FL Trump +3 TX Trump +4 OH Trump +4 IA Trump +4 AK Trump +4 Nowhere else will be within 5. Senate will be 49D-51R with Murkowski and Collins sharing the Manchin role. Cruz +3. House will be 220 D - 215 R. We will be surprised how little violence there will be prior to the inauguration. We are getting expanded Medicare and people will get money for childcare. Ukraine will survive long enough to settle back to 2014 borders. Putin will be dead within 3 years. Israel will relax. Inflation will continue to be above 2.5%; that is the new normal for awhile. Bitcoin price will tank. Trump will continue to be involved in politics but only as a hired gun to juice turnout in rural areas in close elections and as a talking head on TV, and of course, on constant tour continuing to grift; he will die at age 87.
  19. Had a friend make an insightful comment this weekend. I don’t know if Harris is going to win convincingly, but if she does it will align with his comment: ”The United States and its people are always slower to move than they should be, but they end up doing the right thing. They ended slavery far later than they should have. But they did it, eventually. They entered both world wars later than they should have, but they did it, eventually. Trumpism should have been snuffed out in its infancy. It wasn’t, but it will be, eventually.”
  20. Election is in 4 business days. I’ll be sofa king glad when this shit is over.
  21. Another csb , Just got a reply from the GoP precinct chair who texted me earlier this week propagating election integrity lies. I had replied to him that baselessly undermining people’s faith in elections is traitorous and told him to fuck off. His reply: “Thank you for your reply. I just got off the phone with a lady who voted at Riverbend on 360 last Saturday. Her choices continually flipped to another candidate as she was voting. She reported to the clerk that she was having issues with Machine #4 - the clerk told her that Machine #3 was doing the same thing. In my humble opinion, ANY mechanical device can have a glitch. It is only fair to the voter that they check their summary to be certain that their choices are voted. I hope you have a wonderful day.” I know this story is bullshit. Clerks are required by law to immediately stop the use of any machine suspected of malfunctioning. No clerk would openly talk about a machine malfunctioning, especially to a voter while helping them vote on another machine suspected of malfunctioning. I replied to him with that and told him to fuck off again.
