    The Economist reported exactly this recently: https://www.economist.com/united-states/2021/11/27/ivermectin-may-help-covid-19-patients-but-only-those-with-worms

    this CEO seems like he has more than a few screws loose: https://www.inc.com/jason-aten/the-ceo-who-fired-900-employees-on-a-zoom-call-is-out-its-a-tragic-example-of-how-not-to-manage-people.html

    Gone silent might just mean a teenager is tired of getting 20 texts a day from weird grown men...

    Question for those involved: How did y'all land on TE for Burnt Ends and OL for HWH? Their general suckitude for the last decade?

    that might be the dumbest Ian Boyd article yet, which is really saying something

    Y'all convinced me too, happy to support the effort

    I use CBD for sleep and anxiety and have found it to be very effective. I take the tincture and do a 25mg dropper at bedtime and occasional half droppers during the day if I’m stressed out.

    Don’t get me wrong, it’s more important to get better starting pitching. But a good amount of the time we were scoring on station to station hitting, which is hard to maintain. That’s why I hope we go after Story or Semien to replace Correa.

    Which we saw in some of the games in the WS, getting on base with a bunch of singles, but not able to score them

    Anybody else kinda worried about not having more power in the line up? Brantley and Gurriel are already seeing drops in their power and I don't feel like any of the young (outside of Tucker) outfielders are gonna be more than around league avg slugging. Bregman has been avg to below avg the last couple seasons. It puts all the pressure on Yordan and Tuck to drive in runs, especially if we don't replace Correa with a plus batter.

    so THIS is where all the horny singles in my area have been hanging out

    Are building costs coming down at all lately? I know lumber has started to fall back after the craziness of the first part of the year, but has that made its way back to the consumer yet? We are thinking of doing a screened in porch on the house but wondering if we should wait a bit more to let things normalize...or is that a fantasy at this point?

    How huge are the bedrooms in your house? I live in a 3 bedroom house that is less than a third as big as yours lol

    my wife and I make a combined 50k less than you and have a 1900 a month payment with zero issues...no kids, which does make our situation simpler, but this feels like you are bordering on an unhealthy level of risk avoidance. There are always things that could come up, and I'm not advocating for living fast and loose like so many Americans, but you are holding you and your family back with this level of conservatism IMO.

    I see a lot of Cedric Benson in him. Short legs, low center of gravity with a choppy stride. Very quick to top speed but not a burner. Can juke you or truck you. But Bijan has even more wiggle and is an elite receiver. To me he’s the most talented RB we’ve had since Ricky.

    It's gonna be really bad for China in the next 20-30 years when all the people who were born prior to the one-child policy start retiring. Especially as their average age of retirement is 54 (they have been talking of raising it for years). Impossible to fund all those people with a much smaller working cohort. Who knew that top down, unilateral policy making might have unintended consequences?

    That's good to know. How does that change for instances where we are selecting from certain models, not truly customizing from the ground up?

    So my wife and I are considering building a house on her family's land south of Austin. We went to a custom home builder and got some prices for fully built out, but it was with completely basic options. Like stained concrete for the floors, basic It came out to about 300k. My question then is, how much should we expect to pay on upgrades? We aren't needing top of the line everything, but say nicer faux wood floors, upgraded bathrooms and kitchen, etc. It feels like we'd get to a 100k extra in a hurry. Just looking for general ball park costs before making any decisions.
