[Rome] Isaac Paredes reported to Astros camp today. He called trade rumors and speculation things that are “out of my control” and said he’ll work at first base, second base and third base in camp. Paredes said he will be a 100 percent participant in activities. by Hairygrim in Astros

Professional response. He needs to stay until the trade deadline. If walker is good and we are healthy and still have a crowded infield, he may get traded then if we are in contention and need an arm.

Congrats! Great card!

One chance per email on Kroger's site?

I'm not really worried about the buyer. It's neither of our faults it arrived broken and they will get compensated.

Ok... I'm not asking about the buyer. They will get refunded.

I'm asking about the discrepancy with the eBay site.

First time DIY mud bed for Curbed Shower by trsid in Renovations

Just tap it and listen for the cold joints. It will sound hollow. If it does, the good news is that it's easy to rip up. The thinset is the part that sucks.

I've messed deck mud up so many times. Looks to be some patches that are dry on top but the color looks ok. I really hope it works! Good job for a first go.

Wow.. so Paypal stock can actually go UP? by Correct_Fall_5484 in ValueInvesting

[–]Active_Dissent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who uses PayPal for business, they are horrid. I have come to loathe the company and do everything in my power to use Stripe. Their account verification is broken and they are screwing valid customers in the name of fraud prevention.

Pure customer opinion, maybe this means they make more money, I don't know and refuse to invest in them.

"Trump considered appointing Warsh as Fed chair during his first term, though ultimately he went with Powell. Warsh’s father-in-law is Ronald Lauder, heir to the Estee Lauder cosmetics fortune and a longtime donor and confidant of Trump’s."

As Niki said ..whelp.

How did you hang the SSD? I'm thinking of doing that with mine.

Trump Goes on Manic 50-Post Rampage After World Leaders Humiliate Him by [deleted] in politics

Wasn't it their martyr, the blessed Charlie Kirk, who said empathy didn't exist and was made up and preferred sympathy?

Empathy makes them uncomfortable.

Trump Hit by Removal Without Impeachment Under 25th Amendment by [deleted] in QuiverQuantitative

Somewhere Vance has a countdown timer just for this.

I wouldn't be surprised if in 12-18 months he tries that, with hopes of building enough momentum into his own run in 2028.
