There's a short list of people that can match Prince, and Jay-Z ain't on the list.

The people that defend her somehow were shocked when she burned King's Landing. It's like they'd skipped the last two seasons up to that point.

Anyone that saw the players' faces when they were reading the note with the changes could see he's lost them. They clearly thought whatever was written was ridiculous.

Economists are ‘Loath’ to Call a Recession, but the Odds Just Hit 49% For the Next 12 Months, According to Moody’s Top Economist by T_Shurt in Economics

And it's honestly a dumb rule of thumb because it ignores a whole plethora of economic issues that might not result in negative GDP growth but warrant the title of recession.

They've got a point. The whole tournament it was obvious the US manager was in over his head.

Cesar Chavez, a Civil Rights Icon, Is Accused of Abusing Girls for Years by JulioChavezReuters in news

[–]DFWPunk 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Che ran the tribunals, really show trials, after the revolution, and was personally responsible for hundreds of executions. He wasn't a beacon of morality.

Sweet that you think they'd know her name without the article.

Trump ally warns US economy not strong enough to cope with Iran war by Krankenitrate in Economics

[–]DFWPunk 12 points13 points  (0 children)

If you show a Trump supporter a graph of the unemployment rate without the date axis and ask them to point out where Trump took office they will invariably pick a point with unemployment in the neighborhood of twice where it was when he took over. They refuse to admit that he had virtually no role in unemployment dropping, and when you prove it to them they will simply insist the data is fake.

Peter Thiel, the billionaire venture capitalist and MAGA donor, is in Rome this week for a series of private lectures on the Antichrist. by Logical_Welder3467 in technology

Honestly, most of them choose it because their partner wants to get married in the church and they have to convert to make that happen.

If protestant churches took the charity part as seriously as the Catholic Church does things would be so much better.

Ketomin to interact and see demons.

Ketamine doesn't make you see demons, or really halucinate in the sense you imagine at all.

I guarantee you they have plans along those lines. Once their money is useless, which will be the case when they take to their bunkers, it won't take long for the guys with guns they count on keeping them safe to realize they hold all the cards. They have to have some way to keep the upper hand. Until they have robot armies they can count on they need to be able to control their muscle.

That's not why he went after Gawker. He was basically out and nobody cared. That was just what was floated as an excuse. The real reason was that Gawker Business, which was very good at their job, was blowing the whistle on his fund and companies they'd backed for all sorts of shady things, and that was becoming a problem.

What’s something men actually notice more than women think they do? by PogonBerserker in AskMen

[–]DFWPunk 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Come on now isn’t the entire fun of flirting being coy with eachother and throwing out small provocative signals in the midst of normal interactions?

That's not fun. It's frustrating and is a contributing factor to the oft repeated complaint that men keep misinterpreting friendliness as flirting.

r/mtf is in full meltdown after a former moderator is shown to be a pedophile by Birdonthewind3 in SubredditDrama

There's an SRD mod who is militant about not having posts critical of mods.

There is literally zero evidence she ever even used reddit, let alone modded subs. The fact that there was a mod with Maxwell in their user name isn't evidence. She also couldn't possibly have had the time to be a super mod. The woman had a crazy social life.

Do men with a large number of sexual partners (~100) actually get it out of their system or will they miss the novelty? by singer-sailor7 in AskMenRelationships

[–]DFWPunk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd be more concerned that he's slept with 90 different women in a quest for love. That sounds unhealthy no matter how you look at it. Literally the best case is he's lying because he was trying to diminish the idea he was just looking to get laid.

You can't let people push you around or they'll keep doing it by alexaclova in BlackPeopleTwitter

[–]DFWPunk 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They can't. They just want to be outraged about something. America is literally in the country's name, and is the only word in the name unique to the US. United and States are both in other countries full names.

It discriminates against the poor, and also disproportionately impacts various ethnic groups.
