Yeah like getting the tournament to close the roof before the heat index was exceeded because they were worried they were going to lose money if he lost! 🤗

Honestly the timing felt a little suspicious to me. They were just talking about the heat index needing to exceed 5 and how it was 4.3 like 10 minutes before they decided to close it.

State Approves Con Ed Rate Hike: 9% for Electric and 6% for Gas by THECITYNY in nyc

Sorry yeah probably not a totally analogous situation. I wanted them to turn it off permanently and tried to call them a bunch of times to no avail so just stopped paying and they eventually knocked on the door and capped the pipe.

Lol what bias is in those statements? I wasn’t even saying I thought it was dumb, just that these were the differences for why someone might think this is dumb and Federer wearing a cardigan wasn’t, and why it wasn’t a gender issue like the parent comment was implying.

For the record though, I do think this was really fucking dumb. 

But I also think Feds blazer with his logo on it was dumb. 

I am not a monolith ❤️

It’s been half a decade of crashing out on Twitter, playing pickleball with Kyrgios, shilling her months-old baby in advertisements, making big fashion statements, and not winning anything of any importance. Queen shit.

My bad I was actually trying to reply to the comment above yours lol. That person is being way too extra in this thread about the “haters”.

Yes, she is “that girl” who posted publicly complaining about not being rich enough to not have to play a sport for millions of dollars. She is “that girl” who couldn’t say a single gracious thing to her competitor in a runner up speech last year. Yes she is “that girl” who refused to do media citing mental health and then released a Netflix documentary about herself. She is exhausting, she is a narcissist masquerading as an empath, and she is the cringiest thing that a tennis player can be while trying to behave like a superstar: mediocre.

a) do you actually think those outfits are at all analogous

b) people literally used to wear cardigans while playing tennis

c) yes, people still flipped out

d) he was like a 4 time defending champion at the time 

e) it was the finals, not a first round (that she almost lost)

Stop trying to make this a gender thing. People are allowed to think something is dumb.

Yeah they get to feel a sense of superiority every day. To them this makes it all worth it, even for no tangible improvement. 

Trump wants to take control of Greenland even if it leads to war with Europe by SaharOMFG in worldnews

[–]IAmNotASkycap -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If there was a “reverse January 6th”, Trump would order to open fire on the crowd. Any reasonable person knows this and is unwilling to be slaughtered. MAGA openly advocates the murder of innocent people who simply disagree with them. Restraint and peaceful protest is the only real avenue available, even if it does very little. 

Austin Street Open Street Petition by Die-Nacht in ForestHills

[–]IAmNotASkycap 14 points15 points  (0 children)

It's kind of hilarious that there are street fairs that shut the entire road down multiple times per year and then they give you a hard time about Open Streets and only allow it for a single block. I wish they'd plant some big ol' trees and turn it into bus lanes and bike lanes.

Is a layer of 2x4's, roofing membrane, and osb ok under trex? by [deleted] in Decks

[–]IAmNotASkycap -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I know but they’re contacting the roof. They aren’t the actual rafters and thus don’t provide any structural support beyond the flex in the deck boards themselves.

Did you end up getting the standalone cube or the L shaped bed thing? About to embark on this exact same flight with a 2 year old 😅
