COVID-19 vaccine discussion
Maybe that or maybe it’s that people not wearing masks where required are violating the rules but people wearing them are not? I yell at people for running red lights but not for stopping at them. Also maybe bc wearing a mask affects no one else whereas not wearing a mask does increase the risk to others to some extent.

Abbott being Abbott
Hmmm, I know lots of kids who were traumatized by their religious upbringing, so can we now make it child abuse to take kids to church? Also, wait so the person in the first tweet was easily able to reverse the hormonal treatments when they decided that was the better decision for them? O I C. Also, I would say the LAST thing a child with suicidal ideation needs would be being threatened with being taken away from their parents and thrown into a foster system rife with abuse and faced with the thought of their parents being prosecuted and imprisoned because of the way they were born. You ignorant, ghoulish, bigoted motherfuckers.

Guy leapt into the air and lands on Hill, no call, then OU clean block the other end gets the whistle. Just absolute atrocious bullshit. Pretty excruciating.

Haha was figuring someone would say something like this. Obv taking it on and off isn’t some huge issue but neither is leaving it on. It would be like if for some reason you had to wear a baseball cap at stores or indoors. You could keep taking it on and off or just leave it on. It’s not some huge pain to take it on and off but why would you bother?

I’ve worn a mask alone in a car, when going from one place where I would be wearing a mask to another. Why go through the hassle of taking it off and putting it back on? It’s just not that big of a deal. When walking in Vegas through casinos and then back outside I would just leave mine on. My wife would put it on through the casino then take off once outside then back on then back off. I don’t get it. It’s not super oppressive to have a cloth mask resting on your face.

ha yeah I wasn't sure at the time that I was going to run this one. I've thought about doing it for the last few years since he doesn't anymore and it's a fun game, but finally decided to just run it.

Posted a similar $25 contest in Gambling, except instead of a draft, you pick one team on each seed line. Take a look and see if you're interested!

$25 NCAA pick every seed contest
Friend of mine used to run this back in the day and it was super fun, so I'm gonna fire it off this year. Here's how it works, you pick one team from each seed line (so a 1 seed, a 2 seed, a 3 seed, all the way down to a 16 seed) and then a wild card team of any seed you want. The play-in games don't count, so for example if Indiana vs Virginia Tech is a 12 seed play-in game, you could pick the winner of Indy/Va Tech, but can't pick one of those teams and earn points for the play-in win. For scoring, you get 1 point for 1st round wins, 3 points for second round wins, 5 for S16 wins, 7 for E8 wins, 9 for FF wins, and 11 for national title win PLUS you get the seed value of the winning team for each win. So a 1 seed that gets to the elite 8 would earn 12 total points (1+1, 1+3, 1+5). A 10 seed that gets to the sweet 16 would earn 24 (10+1, 10+3). Can PM your picks or post them here. PM or post your email if you want standings updates. PM for payment info. $25 per entry. Selections and payment must be received by 11am Thu March 17.

2022 Poker: Ship it!
Worth mentioning that the calculus would be totally different if we are on the turn. Much more likely that someone could have a semi-bluff or a weaker hand like trip jacks trying to protect against straight/flush coming. Say flop was KJJdd then turn is 6 and I have 66. Not folding to turn 3b here unless player is known mega passive. The percent of the population who can semi bluff with cards to come and/or protect a strong but not nutted hand on wet board is SOOO much bigger than the percent who can 3b bluff a river against a PFR on a KQJJx board.
