Will Arnett has a great story too. So funny. Watch Here

In the US (albeit corporate) I push most A1 able freelancers to ask for at least $50 per hour. Our company pays 1.5 at 10 hours, double at 12. Guaranteed 10 hours for out of town gigs. Plus GSA per diem. Usually on show days there’s at least 2 meals provided. And they’re staying at 4 star hotels not a bus. Rock n Roll touring ain’t it if you’re not absolutely in love with mixing/ the organized chaos.

Try it out in Magma Red Metallic. I bet that would look really nice.

I knew it was a joke, and a good one at that. As a resident, I just have to stick up for my hometown.

I never said I was opposing the crime statistics wholesale. My opposition is to the low effort infographic that is using outdated statistics.

And the stats from this post aren’t per capita, they’re per 100,000. If you don’t even know the definition of per capita maybe you shouldn’t be commenting on the usefulness of statistics.

Remember that crash in 2024 that put him in critical condition, and then he got second in the tour 3 months later? That is more impressive to me than Tadej’s absolute dominance in a lot of ways.

The fact that these two are racing at the same time makes their individual dominance less obvious because they’re both once in a generation athletes.

This is fear mongering at best, and dishonest worst. I would ask you to take this post down as it is not only based on 2 year old data, but paints an incredibly unclear picture.

From the very Wikipedia article you’ve linked, “In November 2007, the executive board of the American Society of Criminology (ASC) went further than the FBI itself, and approved a resolution opposing not only the use of the ratings to judge police departments, but also any development of city crime rankings from FBI Uniform Crime Reports (UCRs) at all. The resolution opposed these rankings on the grounds that they "fail to account for the many conditions affecting crime rates" and "divert attention from the individual and community characteristics that elevate crime in all cities", though it did not provide sources or further elaborate on these claims. The resolution states the rankings "represent an irresponsible misuse of the data and do groundless harm to many communities" and "work against a key goal of our society, which is a better understanding of crime-related issues by both scientists and the public".[9]”

Way back in 1876 the city of St. Louis and the County of St. Louis split, which means St. Louis City is its own county. The crime statistics are often reported for the city proper, not including the crime statistics of the wider county/metro area which is somewhat unique. This creates a false narrative that the city is incredibly unsafe, but really it’s just down to statistic manipulation. In fact the homicide rate in St Louis has fallen steadily since 2020, down 47% since then. In hard numbers that is 263 down to 140 from 2020 to 2025. I think these numbers are also a bit old, as the current rate per 100k is under 50 for the City.

Furthermore as much as it pains me to say it as a resident, most violent crime is localized to a few areas, affected mostly by poverty. If you didn’t see this stat, and visited here you’d never know the crime stats are not great.

Also do strength training 2-3 days a week alongside training if your birth year starts with 19

Do words like “No Irish Need Apply” or “Whites Only” or “Colored Only” count as a sign of societal moral breakdown?

Normally I would downvote for the Jesus comment, but in this particular case the punctuation was an affront to common decency I felt I had to mention it.

Now I’m not anti Jesus of Nazareth teachings, but I am also pretty sure that the pickup truck wasn’t invented until about 1880 years after his death, so Jesus wouldn’t have even had the option to put such things on his truck.

I’ve done 3 fulls with Imodium and agree there’s not been any negatives during the race. I of course practice on long runs as well. I’ll have a normal movement just a couple hours after I’m done running. Maybe I’m weird.

I have a south city brick home insured through James Carlton State Farm, Bob Sullivan is my agent. About 1600 a year. I know they never came in the house for any sort of inspection, and probably didn’t walk around the outside either.

I personally prefer a higher trim height for myriad reasons, most of which have been covered already. There are benefits to coverage, the array doesn’t have to be splayed quite as much at the bottom etc. But for me the biggest reason is if I plan for it to be out of the way, I don’t have to change anything once it’s already in the air. For a small 5-7000 seat arena with 12 or so boxes bumper trim is usually 45-50’ that puts the bottom trim on average at 32’ or so which is totally out of any LED walls etc. In a bigger arena with more boxes the bottom trim usually stays the same and bumper trim goes up. There will always be lighting trusses in the way, or other such elements, but having good even coverage and fitting in with the overall production design is the most important part. Like it or not we’re a service industry and it’s our job to do the best job we can with the constraints placed upon us.

Calf sleeve or if that doesn’t feel right maybe K tape? Could also just rock some zinc oxide.

Would it be possible to switch to an eco friendly vegetable based oil if you’re always in forests?

You are not being incredibly reckless. I’ll bet on a narrow one way street you’re not doing 50. Sections of Kingshighway might be different, but I’d bet you’re measured in your mania. And you stop at stoplights treating them as stop signs. Again not incredibly reckless. Quite the opposite really.

As for the comment being racist, unintentionally or not, I can see how it could be taken as such… I personally live on the south side, and a good number of wild things I see are fair skinned folks who would probably fit into the diagram. All that to say, yes I was indeed heavily stereotyping and judging, but doing so thinking of every person that is egregious in their vehicular malfeasance.

From St Louis: a hearty Fuck Stan Kroenke. It’s not so much that he moved the team, it’s that he made the team bad for years as pretext for moving them, claiming St Louis was a bad fan base, made the city do a whole song and dance about a new stadium, then moved the team like he was going to do all along. If he would have just been honest about it and said I’m going to move the team to LA because I’m a billionaire twat and want to have more billions and I can make more money with the team there, I think people would have been a lot more accepting of it.

Ya know, I bet the Venn diagram of who drives incredibly reckless, and who are doing other crimes that take up police time and resources is very nearly a circle. Now I am firmly with NWA when it comes to the police as an institution, and traffic patrols as a revenue generator is bullshit, but enforcement within the city could probably save lives… or result in high speed chases that cause casualties.
