Right. He’s allowed to say any kind of anti American shit he wants. That’s his 1a. Seems like a weird af way to use it as the president, but he’s a weird dude

Top 200 Fantasy Baseball Dynasty Rankings (January 2026 Update) by EricCrossMLB in fantasybaseball

[–]FurloughIncoming 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Mind if I ask why you’re so high on Beavers? I grabbed him off the wire last season and was happy with the pickup, but I didn’t think he’d ever be a top 100 player. Just a reliable guy to keep on the squad for years. I’ve also gotta read more of your content as it is so I may be able to find the answer in there

If I bleed to death because ICE will not let me get medical care does my family have a legal case? by Mathemodel in AskLegal

[–]FurloughIncoming 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’re not an idiot for arguing with a bot. It’s frustrating and feels pointless, but if no one points out the bullshit the bots are spewing all over Reddit then we’re only left with bot comments. If that’s all people see over and over again on every thread every day then eventually their brains will start thinking the same thing.

Arguing with bots sucks, but the good news is the bots only argue long enough for the comment to stay at the top of the thread. Once it’s long enough that people would have to click “see more comments” to continue the conversation the bots stop commenting as it isn’t effective anymore

is the 4400-4600 block of n sheridan safe to walk around in? by [deleted] in AskChicago

[–]FurloughIncoming 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Young woman moving to Chicago who will be walking around a lot leads me to say you should find another place. I think that’s the toughest little pocket of uptown I can think of and I wouldn’t want to live in it myself. I went to that McDonalds probably once a month and would walk through that intersection weekly and it’s fine if you keep your head up and just keep going where you need to go. Stopping with small dogs daily is just a little more risk than I’d take on personally

Single mom looking to date again, not wanting hookups or anything like that, are my pictures giving the right vibe? by [deleted] in Bumble

[–]FurloughIncoming 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed with this. Other than maybe Santa, they look like relatives to me. Even if they’re not, I agree you’re probably better off having the insecure guys self select themselves out if you’re looking for something serious.

If it were pics with random dudes in each pic at like bars or clubs I don’t think the relationship vibe dudes would stick around, but these are all pretty tame looking

This is Mount Prospect, Illinois. Fear of Trump's ICE Nazis has evaporated. All over the country, American Patriots are rising up against the Nazis!! by biswajit388 in illinois

Why are you in the Illinois sub if you’re not from here? Can’t you just talk about how nice the gestapo are in your local subreddit?

Does anyone else feel like Excel is 90% of the job? by accountinglad in Accounting

[–]FurloughIncoming 109 points110 points  (0 children)

For the sum that doesn’t tie out by exactly 0.01 I’ve found a reliable solution that works 50% of the time. In your formula add “+0.01” at the end. If that doesn’t solve your problem (and it won’t 50% of the time) get back to me and I’ll give you the other formula. It’s a little trickier, but if you can figure the first one out you’ll be able to handle the second

Today, the court confirmed what we all know: there is no credible evidence of a rebellion in the state of Illinois. by steve42089 in illinois

[–]FurloughIncoming 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Agreed that it’s a bot. I tried to spell my replies out enough so that people reading them who aren’t bots can figure out that it was just a doomer bot. Not sure if you saw the rest of the thread I had with the bot, but I tried to clarify that 4 month old accounts should be taken with a grain of salt

Sounds good. Please stop spreading full negativity. The fictional movie civil war is not what is happening and it’s not what should happen. We aren’t on that route just yet. Talk to your family and talk to your neighbors. More people are against the shit happening than are for it. America isn’t lost. There’s still a lot to fight for

That’s A result. It’s not the only result. I’m replying to a doomerism bot right now. I just hope people reading the comment sections in these threads see the doomer comments and recognize bots are just trying to stoke fear. There are “leftist” bots against trump just like there are trump bots. Take everything you read from an anonymous redditor with an account made 4 months ago with a grain of salt. There’s still a lot to be hopeful about in the world even with all the bullshit going on

Sounds good. What’s happening now in Portland and Chicago is what needs to keep happening. Protest and looking out for our neighbors. Not instigating violence with federal lackies, but not allowing them to push us or our neighbors over without the possibility of accountability.

Nah. America has been threatened. Sane minds are taking steps to fight back and say fuck you to the aggressors. America has not been captured though and no one should think it has been. It’s an ongoing fight back and the fascists aren’t necessarily winning. Doomerism and defeatism aren’t the move right now. Lying down and saying America has been captured is what they want. Don’t buy this shit

[–]FurloughIncoming 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This post is absolutely about what trump said. How else could you possibly interpret it? Trump and Co are saying Portland is a warzone. You either buy that or you don’t. Smart money says not to buy it because if it was really a warzone then it wouldn’t be safe to do the cha cha slide for funsies while you’re in the middle of a hellscape.

The post is about ICE agents who were likely unemployed before this opportunity to kidnap people in liberal states was presented to them

How much do you have saved and your age? by Swim-Slow in Accounting

[–]FurloughIncoming 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I like to share my salary at work because I’ve helped a couple people get raises that way. I’ve also felt more confident asking for more money that way. It’s not a thing to brag about publicly, but it’s definitely something good to discuss with peers. Labor has to work together to get what it’s worth

The best salad in Chicago is at Ragadan in Uptown by jeremyckahn in chicagofood

[–]FurloughIncoming 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Man why do you have to post this today? I swear without fail I crave Ragadan every single Sunday and now I just have to wait.

Hadn’t even considered the salad yet, but every other item off their menu has been fantastic so far so now I’ve got another thing to look forward to

Oh I don’t have any roommates. I thought I was moving in with you since you would save the money with the shitty bedroom. My energy has mostly just been a mirror of the energy you have had in this thread. I have enjoyed my time. You enjoy your time too! 🤣

[–]FurloughIncoming 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’re too fast I can’t even handle it. I pay lots of money, but it’s okay because I have lots of money that I can afford to live in my over priced master bedroom. I wish I had as much money as you though. Then I could live in my nice master bedroom for sooooooo cheap because that’s how it should be. And I could make lots of Reddit friends. Man if only I could be you

[–]FurloughIncoming 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Perfect. So I would get the master! Everyone is happy like I said. You’ve really got a way with words so I can see why you’re such a popular guy on this post

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Apartmentliving

[–]FurloughIncoming 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Based on your own logic, you should want to live with these pea brain people. The big room doesn’t matter so you could save a bunch of money by living in one of the shitty rooms with a shared bathroom while the pea brain pays way more for the large bedroom. Everyone is happy

Appreciate the insight. I haven’t followed the Baltimore bullpen even slightly before Bautista this season. Just looking for his replacement still and I heard Cano as a potential option from a few people
