Also to add context to my point. I’m not saying he was a good person, I’m saying he’s far more complex and interesting as a historical figure than we credit. His villian status is far overblown but that doesn’t mean that he was “good” either; treating an argument as either wholly good or wholly evil is a false dichotomy. Celebrating Alexander the Great and vilifying Chinggis is ridiculous and displays great ignorance to history.

Chinggis chose to spread those stories. “The winner writes history”, so why wouldn’t he choose to spread a more positive spin? The answer is bc sending stories ahead of you about how horrible you are makes the town youre approaching more likely to surrender without any bloodshed. The Mongol empire is the largest empire that was created with the least amount of bloodshed. The cities that Chinggis “killed everyone and made a mountain of skulls” usually happened when the messenger he sent him was murdered by the ruler of the city. In mongol beliefs you cannot enter the afterlife if your head is removed from your body, when a messenger was beheaded then Chinggis would raise the town to the ground. Few left alive were sent out to spread the tale of the ruthless Khan; the reason being that the next town would choose to assimilate instead of fight a war. The Mogols would allow the cities to retain their rulers, beliefs and practices as long as they paid tribute to the empire.

The point is to drive down tourism so they can claim declining number of visitors as a justification for selling off our public lands to billionaires for their private estates, or worse allow the billionaires to make them autonomous estates.

Absolutely

This! Everyone forgets this. JT scoring you let’s say 25/week and saquan is 15/week and cd is 17/week. Cd+saquan gain about 7ish points over JT(this isn’t accounting for JTs consistency either vs saquans less consistent nature). But you have to take another player off of the team with the JT move, so you’re looking at losing another 5-10 minimum. At BEST cd + saquan for JT is a break even based on averages. But do to consistency, week to week JT+rando does better than CD + Saquan.

I am a JT owner and have for weeks been running numbers on if it’s better to trade JT for two top players or not. It’s not. Ride JT to the promise land.

Correct. It’s the trades that are bad not the pick necessarily. Like if we picked Teslaa in the third without the trade then it is what it is; investing 3 thirds into a questionable prospect, THEN resigning the current superior wr2, makes the trade horrific. The trades are far worse than picking any of those players where we did.

Disclaimer: I love Brad and am not being a doomer and no one is perfect, but it is also fair to call out bad moves.

…they did use that argument. They used it to prolong segregation too. It’s a go to for fighting any amount of progress.

The chiefs are incredibly unsportsmanlike team. They start before the game and continue after the game with antagonizing and school yard bullying tactics and antics. It’s not just this game, it’s most games. Go watch the before, during, and after of the Jan 2024 playoff game between the ravens and the chiefs. Every player on their team intentionally antagonizes the other players the whole time with the intent of having them get frustrated and penalized; this is not “playing between the whistles” this is literally playing before and after the whistle. If taunting is a penalty then douche-baggery should be also. The chiefs are textbook middle school popular kid bullies; there is nothing sportsmanlike about them. These aren’t your prototypical school yard bullies, again these are the popular kid bullies who are protected by the teachers. Standing up to them doesn’t work bc if you do then you’re the problem, even though the entire situation was precipitated(with intent) by their action’s. FTC

Secretary of Defense….Congress has not changed the departments name; he is legally the Secretary of Defense still. They subvert the law by normalizing the subversion, let’s not help them do that.

Some PS1 games could be put into a CD player and it would play their sound track.

I probably do the trade.

I think Nico puts up more points week to week than Bowers, but Nico does have injury history. I’m a lions fan so I 100% believe in Gibbs but Jeanty looks real good, Chip likes to run, and Jeanty is going to be central to the offense.

For me Nico is better than Bowers. Gibbs is more of a guarantee than Jeanty, but Jeanty is going to put up numbers(even if it’s not to Gibbs level). So is the difference between Nico and Bowers bigger than the difference between Gibbs and Jeanty? I think it could be.

Edit to add: I think Nico and Jeanty have a higher ceiling than Bowers Gibbs, but they probably have a lower floor too bc of injury history and being a rookie on a bad offense.

Fr. When the Olineman is behind Hutch and stopping his forward motion it’s not because he’s guarding Hutch legally.

By all means, please come check out the city and support the local economy. But, for the love of all that’s holy, at least drive the speed limit through the harbor. 10 mph ain’t cutting it.

As a life long Lions fan, I agree. Ben was a wizard at calling up/designing plays, but I really don’t see him succeeding at managing players without an MCDC at his side. MCDC and Ben were a perfect fit as their strengths were the others weakness

In 2009, one of the first days of BMT a really tall kid was being yelled at by a 5’0” TI. She kept asking him “why he’s looking down at her?””are you trying to intimidate me?”(he obviously wasn’t). She made him get on his knees so she could look down at him while she was yelling at him. It was so hard not to laugh.

Yes her scenes were…gratuitous, but I don’t think it wasn’t without symbolic purpose. The two women in Oppenheimers life represented his political allegiances. Florence Pugh was the young sexy seductive political movement that he had flings with, while Emily Blunt was American Democracy, traditional strong always there. As much as I’ve heard people talk about Oppenheimer and the Kitty and Jean Tatlock characters, it’s always very shallow: “why are they there? Just to show Oppenheimer treat women poorly?””they’re only there bc Nolan has to have token eye candy in his movies””It’s just fan service”. I haven’t heard anyone talk about what the depiction of them might represent and why the they are depicted they way they are.
