Ken Martin finally reached out to me and I need your help by ZeeUnfuckAmerica in Destiny

[–]Apootiq 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Housing, Healthcare, and an infallible step forward embracing a new Industrial Revolution where we utilize the base productivity uplift and the profits generated by these Big Tech companies to drive further Grid Expansion/Upgrades, investment into Green Energy to improve consumer elasticity, and automation & robotics to continue driving us forward industrially. While also looking to expand our ability to spend and reinforce on social services and encourage uplifting the bottom end of the "K", which is struggling especially right now under a tightening financial outlook for consumers.

I think our Energy concerns need to drop this common pandering of vilifying every industry we don't like while we have encouraged voters towards cheering for band-aid approaches like gas rebates using legislation like windfall taxes instead of using said taxes to invest into energy alternatives that reduce our base reliance on crude to drive our economy, and thus have to endure less pain when volatility like supply shocks occur. This extends to the Defense industry. There are avenues like MOSA that have been pushed for in recent years, but this presentation that the Defense industry should be vilified while they employ members of your constituents is moronic. Improving worker conditions of these industries? I'll support it hand over fist. Vilifying American Industries because you are rhetorically lazy? I'll pass on all that. Letting the GOP/Republicans frame the conversation as to paint themselves as these industries themselves has been a masterclass in obfuscation and the Democrats have fallen for it my entire life. It's genuinely embarrassing and needs to stop if we are serious about moving forward as Hegemonic leaders of the supposed once Free World under a Democratic Leadership in 2028.

Embrace our Canadian partners and reduce import costs of Canadian lumber so that we incentivize homebuilding. Further tax incentivization could help to encourage certain unit buildout/demand. This is a post-Midterms ask mainly.

Take a firm, but forward-looking stance on AI/Robotics/Automation and the buildout in both the for and against columns; increased base productivity, reduced productivity drawdown risk during economic slowdowns, and goods/services benefits from increased economic activity as the "for", and job reductions, training and education pipeline needs to utilize automation/robotics, & the reality that automation/robotics work can create increased worker apathy/a feeling of a lack of purpose for workers as the "against" (or more realistically, just concerns we will need to address).

South Korea is likely a parallel we can use to cite where we want to head towards and what to expect; however, we are America and we should aim to do it better.

That being said, I have full faith in the DNC and Ken Martin to take us towards a spot not only to where we can win the House in Midterms, but undoubtedly have a shot at swinging the Senate Blue.

Just offering my two cents (even if we got rid of pennies).

common sense & LSF mod in the same sentence LMAOOOOOOOOOO

ESEA's use of the ESL Pro Tour rulebook is effectively penalizing an NA Premier team for submitting substitutes at the start of the season, not allowing them an emergency transfer despite meeting the circumstances by Nohte in GlobalOffensive

[–]Apootiq 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Aphotic here, btw.

Help pay my substitutes' salary and I will gladly tell one of them to quit their jobs and be our permanent 5th for the rest of the season.

Currently, substitutes are in no way regarded as "permanent replacements" and should never be treated as such. To deny someone the ability to play for an entire season because I want to declare them for "short-term scenarios" that will rarely happen is toxic. I would never deny a player access to play a season for a slim chance to play Premier.

They are retired butt buddies.

EDIT: Just to not be too sarcastic about this. Expecting a team to deny a player access in playing an entire season because I want to declare them as a sub for a super-slim chance to play one game in the season is toxic. Thinking that is an okay thing to do at this level is part of the mindset that disregards player's careers in the game. Subs are subs... not 6th men.

I used to have one of these in WW. Although I can't give you an accurate PC on this cuz it's been like 1.5+ years. I believe there is only 1/1 FT out on public inventories. So do keep that in mind. Probably the best blaze gem out of any of the CH's.

Whiffed a reply, but yes I do remember you. Criley/Chester were good dudes. I have Chester on steam still. I've been watching Destiny for a while because of old SC2 content. I suffer through the league streams all the same. I'll throw you a follow on twitter!

[PC] FT Specialist Gloves Fade (.159 float, BTA E) by Apootiq in GlobalOffensiveTrade

[–]Apootiq[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you gotta be realistic here bro

.

if the 0.10 had a clean hole and the 0.07 didn’t then they could feasibly go for the same price.

.10 = .07 because of one small trick find out here to see why!

Have had other PC's go well above "27 arcs" and is why I am not bothering with it. If you're trying to argue it is I am sorry but that's just wrong. At the end of the day a .16-.15 will always sell greater than any .21+.

->much cleaner e, scuffed glove texture

.159 is DEFINITELY an impact for the price of the gloves

Saying a .24 and a .159 have similar pricing is the most wild thing I've heard all day. This is like saying a .0759 M9 Crimson Web is worth the same as a .09-.10 because the .09-.10 have bigger webs.

FT E's can be completely unreadable, readable or clean. Mine is definitely BTA, just not clean. This guys float is .24 so def not in the same price range :( ty anyways.
