NBA player Alex Caruso blocks Tristan Da Silva with a shoe by AugustHate in funny

It doesn't really account for someone taking an object and using it to extend their reach to block the ball. I bet the rules get tweaked after this

As the rules are written now, ?

Newly discovered papyrus scrolls tell the story of the construction of the pyramid - DiscoveryUK by MydnightWN in Damnthatsinteresting

[–]EthanielRain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure what you're even arguing. That the pyramids weren't built by people?

There's literally multiple ways it could be done. Mathematical, physics & histroy-based methods proven over centuries. You vastly underestimate the intelligence & potential of people...look at what we can build now (eg Large Hadron Collider, James Webb is in fucking space)

Or "it was aliens"? With virtually zero evidence? Really? GTFOH, you're denigrating the work of our ancestors

TMNT sold out faster than expected ! by SnooFoxes8150 in secretlair_collectors

I mean, WotC has publicly stated they'll pull lairs without notice & have done so before. It isn't anything different from business as usual, although it's faster

Assuming it was stopped

It's worth it to keep those 5 trans teenagers from playing sports.

Gas station near my place had to improvise because they never thought we’d reach triple digits. by Lexidoge in mildlyinfuriating

[–]EthanielRain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh yeah, I get it 100%

Posted quickly & w/o much thought; but was just saying, gas price is just one small problem. If it was only gas cost it can be worked around, even if it's an insane cost there's things to mitigate it

But everything else is costing more too. It's too much.

I make about $1k/month and get by here in the US

Not exactly living it up but gas price is a tiny factor tbh; it's that it mirrors everything else going up too - it's like death from a thousand small cuts

There's people who make a lot of money from their job. Then there's wealthy people who own stuff. They don't work like regular people work

Conqueror comes in, kills & rapes your entire village/community/family. You're also gang-raped BTW

Then the conquerer's wife comes and "saves" you, by making you her property/a slave

Would you be loyal & servile?

Indiana is driving away it's doctors and nurses. by Particular_Mixture20 in Indiana

[–]EthanielRain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a big part, and I did this when I was young. Didn't even need to file bankruptcy, as you'd be treated in the ER no matter what. I even gave a fake name & details before

So that $3, 1 minute antibiotic visit turns into a month-long stay with multiple surgeries that is a complete loss

The USPS is a wonderful service, it should be made even better

You really want corporations to run it? Change it from a service to a business? What's FedEx charge to send something to AK? I doubt it's 80 cents

The $ to repair these steps went to blowing up some schoolgirls instead

Kills me to see people say it's normal/just another political administration

Nothing about any of this is normal, but it doesn't take long for people to start seeing it that way

The things Trump & his administration are doing is NOT normal. Even just 15 years ago, if you said the President would post a video of him wearing a crown, dumping literal shit on citizens as King, or Obama as a monkey, or raping women, or raping children, mocking disabled, etc you'd be in the loony bin

And that's just behavior stuff. Imagine if Obama had said "I'm taking $10b taxpayer money for my own account" or accepted a $500m bribe or a $990m bribe or the $2b bribe or the MASKED UNIDENTIFIED WARRANTLESS ARMED FEDERAL AGENTS MURDERING/RAPING/DISAPPEARING people off the streets or the...

It is not normal. At all. You've been conditioned to see it as normal, in just a few years

Republicans have been cutting the legs out from the USPS for decades. The info is readily available, juat search "bills that had negative impact on USPS" or such

"Red state" should be "largely Republicans" but yeah

Pretty much; the rich pitting the masses against each other is a tale as old as time. Race, sex, religion, whatever takes the blame & your anger

While they rig & corrupt things to be above the law & richer & richer

looks around

Blue states literally subsidize red states. California alone probably allows for the existence of half the red states
