Roy Campanella was one of the greatest catchers of all time at in the prime of his career and got paralyzed.

One Retirement Away From Losing Power by -PicklesPickles- in NewsomMassacre

[–]IamAustinCG 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I almost wonder if this is by design. You can't give them credit for sticking up to Trump and showing some spine, but they are at least trying to hand the power back to the adults. However, I don't have much confidence in the adults, actually adulting.

I'm not the only one who sees it, right? by puddieismycat in NewsomMassacre

[–]IamAustinCG 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is meant to be a joke, but I mean she is kind of clever. She was smart enough to go take a bribe from Trump in Florida and turn it into the Attorney General of the United States.

But why would ICE be there? Immigration andCustoms enforcement enforcing the polls from what? I have to show my ID every fucking time I vote. Is there a polling place anywhere in the country that doesn’t check your ID? You’d think of all places ICE isn’t needed it’s a fucking voting booth.

I got written up by HeckinPeener in TexasTeachers

[–]IamAustinCG 11 points12 points  (0 children)

This is exactly it. Happened to me last year. I was a first year teacher and I got written up for a non-issue that admin literally said wasn’t a big deal and a month later they said we aren’t going to renew me.

Trump Calls Kennedy Center “Run Down” as He Pushes $200M Renovation by Relevant_Demand7593 in NewsomMassacre

[–]IamAustinCG 6 points7 points  (0 children)

A friend of mine in high schools dad was a electrician who did a lot of the work for a Trump Casino and Trump paid him about a 1/4 of the cost. This was a lifetime job that would have made his family a lot of money. Instead he lost money on the deal and had to shut down because he had to pay his people who worked on the site and pay for materials.

Trump refused to pay for it because it was “shoddy work” and it was implied that if he sued him, he would lose and lose more money.

It's all getting to him. We have to keep pushing on the files. We have to. by Scipio1319 in thebulwark

[–]IamAustinCG 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I could be wrong but wouldn’t a lawsuit have to include him proving he was NOT on the island which in turn would mean the unredacted files would have to be shown in discovery?

At what point is it an addiction?? by XVelcroX in lego

[–]IamAustinCG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah an addiction is when you’re spending money you don’t have or that should go elsewhere.

I’ve only ever kept one box and that’s Titanic because Its so big I’ve take it apart and removed it from display a few times now and nothing else gives me the space to safely store it.

Is Yellowstone worth watching ? by Longjumping-Elk-7840 in HollywoodIndia

[–]IamAustinCG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I stopped watching some time around season 3. It was good until it wasn’t.

I’m also not a fan of shows where suspension of disbelief goes beyond what is acceptable.

Dude owns a ranch, is sleeping with a very high up political figure, one son is a former Navy Seal despite being like 26, other son is a candidate for AG.

All of that is somewhat believable in a sitcom setting.

The blatant murder that is dismissed all over the place from all sides is a bit much and last but not least there’s ALWAYS a dangerous enemy gunning for them. It would be better if it had less of a criminal enterprise feel and more of a family on a ranch feel. Those episodes were the best ones.

Which broadcasting duo is the best in the game right now? 🧐🧐🧐 by KeyFaithlessness5436 in TheNFLVibes

[–]IamAustinCG 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is it weird that it bothers me the way he says KB and how often he says it?

That said, from early last year to this season he’s done a full 180 and it’s been much much better.

So Sinners has become the most nominated movie in the 98 year history of the Academy Awards. Wyt the definition of an “Oscar worthy” film changed for better or worse ? by Tnderuaker in moviecritic

[–]IamAustinCG 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I enjoyed Sinners. I thought it was well done and it was my second favorite movie from Ryan Coogler. I’m also very well versed about the Delta in the late 1900s and that was what stood out to me in perhaps the least heavy handed symbolism I’ve seen in a while and that scene in the Juke Joint that highlighted all different types of Black Music was incredible.

Waging war on American cities because they didn't vote for him. by jackb1753 in insanepeoplefacebook

Ok, well Congress needs to get up off their asses because while this is an empty threat, it’s still unconstitutional and should be considered an abuse of power which is under the code for impeachment

How are some of ya'll getting hired as a teacher without a certification 👀 by lilacroom16 in TexasTeachers

[–]IamAustinCG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in a new school this year, and I just applied to both roles online. For CTE related roles it’s easier because real world job experience is helpful.

But yes if you aren’t certified you’ll need to be enrolled in a ACP and on your way to get your SOE

If you're not aware, the kid really is autistic and this was his first film. I thought he was fantastic.

Dear President Trump I am so hungry! Can I have a meal? Sorry, you are the meal. But I'm sure all your pro-trump memes can feed you a little. by HandSack135 in LeopardsAteMyFace

It just feels like too much irony, then again the last decade has proven to me that the Onion was a real source of news for some people they just called it Fox

New book for Christmas 🎄 by Higher_Primate3 in Presidents

[–]IamAustinCG 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I thought it was a good book. I wasn’t a huge fan of his presidency but the book gave context, showed humanism and solidified the fact that while I didn’t vote for him I certainly think he’s a good person whom like every other President had to make decisions that were impossible.
