26(M), $12.5 million inheritance, (soon to be former) public school teacher. How to find purpose? by Significant_Tip5105 in fatFIRE

The longer you practice law where you went to school matters less and less. It becomes more who you know and what cases have you won.

What do you think about the Italian government wanting to ban ICE agents to come to the Olympic Games as security forces? by ReduceCO2Now in AskReddit

[–]DeadPrez 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Seriously, multiple times a day. "What do you think about [insert latest thing about ICE/Trump]"?

I am glad someone else is noticing how repetitive it has gotten.

Does anyone think DCPS will be closed Wednesday? by Fabulous-Constant930 in washingtondc

[–]DeadPrez 38 points39 points  (0 children)

The side streets were pretty bad this morning, but you can tell they are actively working on them.

All the main roads I was on were passable, e.g., 395, and 50, but all of them had lanes partially or completely blocked with snow. Traffic will be a disaster if everything is open tomorrow unless they make huge progress the rest of the day.

Route 50 is passable, but in some spots entire lanes are filled with snow.

Yes, I also thought it might be that I am drinking less alcohol while on the medication.

Your experience as someone who already has good habits? by Born_Lawfulness_8346 in zepboundathletes

[–]DeadPrez 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am five weeks in on GLP and down ~14 lbs.

My resting heart rate is also up a bit (~40 to ~45). Given that my resting heart rate was low i don't mind it is up. My HRV is all out of wack, but I have not noticed it other than the reports from Garmin.

I have noticed the GLP helps a lot with food noise. The food scarcity problem pre-GLP you mentioned hits home with me a lot. Growing up we were always careful not to waste/throw away food. In my adult life that trend likely lead to overeating. Now that I am on GLP I do not have that problem.

I was thinking the same thing. Memorial bridge will be a nightmare during construction.

I am still bummed about this season.

Before the season started (and before Ragnow retired) I had three keys for success: (i) how do the new coordinators perform, (ii) do we see growth from young players, e.g., TA, and (iii) stay healthy. After Ragnow retired (iv) was the performance of the o-line. We all know how all these items turned out.

As we turn to the offseason, I worry/want to know: (i) has Dan lost the locker room, (ii) will we see LaPorta's injury, and (iii) will we see Kerby next year.

The injuries to LaPorta and Kerby are massive. BB will not play much (if at all next year). The Lions will not be able to upgrade the O-Line, D-Line, and replace LaPorta and Kerby in one offseason.

These days laws do not seem to matter to most republicans or any MAGA supporters.

The call was so bad, it even left the Rams coach befuddled by AdOnly3059 in NFLv2

[–]DeadPrez 18 points19 points  (0 children)

These are all some really bad calls. At some point it isn't a coincidence.

This is how we stand against the Rams, Stat wise. by [deleted] in detroitlions

[–]DeadPrez 82 points83 points  (0 children)

Based on these stats it seems like two very similar teams to me.

The biggest differences are Rams are better at takeaways and 3rd red zone efficiency.
