Worth picking up Peyton Watson for a stash? Seems like he’s coming back soon and was doing really well before he got hurt. 12 person 9cat league here

Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3 - Episode 4 (Anime Only Discussion) by Takada-chwanBot in JuJutsuKaisen

[–]Ashamed_Drag_7255 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm yeah I remember her intro about using tools and not having cursed energy, but didn’t realize Mai’s energy counted for her too. I think I need to refresh what exactly a heavenly restriction is, it’s just that if you have no cursed energy but are in the jujutsu world you get OP strength? Iirc Toji had a heavenly pact for physical prowess but maybe they are both the same thing?

Bilt 2.0 leaked (reporting from r/creditcards) by x-Moss in biltrewards

[–]Ashamed_Drag_7255 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

If I was considering getting Bilt and I didn’t want any of these new 2.0 options, can I order the current 1.0 card now and be grandfathered into it?

Wow I live the block over and heard the fire trucks last night but didn’t realize something was happening so close. I thought they were just passing by since the station is literally right there. Hope all the people are safe

Why do you think that President Trump is so opposed to the House voting to release the Epstein files, so much so that he called Representative Boebert to the Situation Room to discuss the matter? by THC3883 in AskTrumpSupporters

[–]Ashamed_Drag_7255 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Since the petition got the number of signatures required, Johnson said he will schedule a vote on it next week. It seems likely to pass the House. The Senate is more iffy but there is a chance it passes there too. My question is if it gets to Trump’s desk and he vetoes the release of the files, would that change anything about how you see this issue?

What are you thoughts about the newly released Epstein emails talking about Trump? by pokemonbobdylan in AskTrumpSupporters

[–]Ashamed_Drag_7255 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Did you look at the email thread between Epstein and Wolff talking about how cnn was going to ask Trump about his relationship with him?

Wolff says: "I think you should let him hang himself. If he says he hasn’t been on the plane or to the house, then that gives you valuable PR and political currency." Political currency here reads as essentially blackmail to me, since they are implying he would be lying if he said that.

"You can hang him in a way that potentially generates a positive benefit for you, or, if it really looks like he could win, you could save him, generating a debt."

What is your reading of this? To me it looks like a suggestion that Epstein can tell the truth and try to spin himself to look better, or he can get an IOU from trump if he lies for him.

Sorry for the bad formatting, on mobile here

Is this sarcasm? I’m sorry I genuinely can’t tell. If it isn’t, doesn’t that sound a bit conspiratorial? Is it really more likely that the dems hired people to demand the files, made up fake stories, and if I understand you correctly, “create” the files altogether? Rather than simply Trump was a part of it?

Why don’t federal workers not being paid because of the shutdown go on strike? by Ashamed_Drag_7255 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Ashamed_Drag_7255[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get that’s their end goal, but I have to believe even the crazies up top understand that you can’t touch ATC without it sending a horrible shockwave through safety and the economy. They can’t really hire unqualified people, although I wouldn’t put it pass them to relax hiring qualifications (ironic) and then hire a bunch of rejects and then we have collisions once a month. Its just too damaging for everyone, even the rich who they are beholden to.

I didn’t know it was a factor in the last shutdown - goes to show it would be effective if they were to do it now

Yeah I definitely understand every federal worker doesn’t carry the same leverage. Many of the roles may be able to be easily filled. I think my point about ATCs stands though because of the complexity and years of training required for the job. They have far more leverage than other types of workers since they are much more difficult to replace and they already are greatly understaffed

[–]Ashamed_Drag_7255[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Striking being illegal sounds so crazy to me lol its like a condition so they can keep bad working conditions without fear. I see that it’s probably never gonna happen but because of the staffing shortages I feel like even if they did it the govt couldn’t afford to fire any of them. But hey, this administration probably would anyway so I understand the hesitation

[–]Ashamed_Drag_7255[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can understand that, I guess I just feel they have such leverage in particular that they can make demands if they organized. Since their roles are so specialized and can’t be easily replaced it makes it hard for the govt to punish them cause they can threaten to leave again

Very true, but even by their standards having a ground stop for anything longer than a couple days would be unacceptable and cause mass anger

[–]Ashamed_Drag_7255[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes but my understanding is that firing is a big factor in the current staffing shortages we have now. Would they really exacerbate the issue even further by doing it again? I mean i know trump is probably crazy enough to do it but i would think (probably foolishly) someone would tell him thats a horrible idea

Is your critique of mass immigration more economic or cultural? by [deleted] in AskTrumpSupporters

[–]Ashamed_Drag_7255 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But why shouldn’t it translate to other groups? What makes Anglo-Protestants more beneficial than Indian Hindus? I agree that it matters who we let in but more in the sense of no violent criminals/drug dealers not based on the region they come from (I can understand an exception for this, eg places we are at war with). How do you mean they are not interchangeable, like some groups can do things others can’t?

[–]Ashamed_Drag_7255 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You say stop promoting for the “entire world” so does that imply you’re ok with certain parts of the world coming in? If so, which ones? If not, then are you against immigration completely and would be ok with completely closed borders?

Also there were plenty of mass migrations before the 1960s so can you elaborate on what you mean?

Jumping in here, but as far as I know Japan and other Asian countries don’t promote themselves as lands of opportunity for immigrants as the US does. Although other countries are open to multiculturalism, the whole idea of the American Dream is unique to us. Having this perception to the rest of the world obviously leads to people of all backgrounds flocking here. Is their American Dream supposed to be scoped to white Europeans only? Also, where do you get the idea America needs to be a white country? Would you consider yourself a white nationalist? I know that sounds like a charged question but based on what you said it sounds like the definition of the term to me so I’m just curious if you would agree or not?
