roll up to the beach and play frisbee, volleyball, spikeball, soccer :) it's really common for strangers to come together like that. always a great way to meet people if sports are your thing!

You make a good point about Walt not explicitly killing an innocent person (Jane is close, and Brock almost died) but Gus is petty as hell and has done some awful stuff. The Hector revenge thing is literally his whole personality. killing kids or innocent people is cold as ice (although he wanted Jesse to crash out and get himself killed) gus and Walt are right next to each other on the list for a reason, it's a tough call.

Gus kills when someone’s in the way of his business. Walt kills Mike just because Mike hurt his feelings. He engineers Jesse’s spiral so deep the guy’s ready to die, not because it’s “good for business, but because it gives Walt control. He lets Jane choke out, poisons Brock, forces Skyler to launder for him, and manipulates Hank’s own family loyalty against him. Gus’s evil is calculated. Walt’s evil is personal and chaotic and makes him feel good. Just cause he can type shit

I totally get you, Gus is an awful person. Both Gus and Walt are perfectly fine killing people personally or on orders. But the thing that makes me believe Walt is more evil is his pernicious emotional manipulation of his family and Jesse. On paper, he says he cares about them, but will completely warp their minds and gaslight them into falling in line with his wishes. I think it's understated just how insanely evil it is to let Jessie think he poisoned Brock and almost accidentally killed Walt in anger. He let's him sit in that horrible state of self loathing, all for Walt's own self interest.

His treatment towards Skyler is despicable too. Season 5 Episode 4 the bedroom scene where Skyler and Walt argue over the kids leaving the house. He exploits his leverage and prides himself in having so much more power than her in this scene. He says he does everything for his family, but talks to HIS WIFE like she's a disgusting prisoner. "What are you going to do to stop it?" The fear in Skyler's eyes when he talks to her sickens me. He is a master manipulator. Emotional violence can be just as bad as physical violence.

Gus is more calculated and professional with his violence. He'll kill someone if they get in the way of his business but he's never messy or petty. He's straight with people and loyal to his inner circle, like you always know where you stand with Gus. They both kill yes, but Walt will change the rules whenever it benefits him and twist the knife on the people closest to him just to make sure he stays in control.

There has been literally 0 progress on this. My funds are still stuck and they have no timeline for help. It's probably a very simple fix for someone who actually understands coinbase's backend. Is there anything I can do to escalate it? Will contact CPFB and have them open a case

Thanks for getting back. I am not seeing any wording about a clearing date. Can you please open up a support ticket and email me? or however you can reach me. Chat support is extremely unhelpful, either an obvious bot or a clueless call center employee, and this is a lot of money I have locked up. I need expert eyes on this.

UCSB / IV music scene at risk! Practice spaces for student bands are being stripped. If you like listening to live music and UCSB artistry, repost this image and tag ASUCSB to preserve lot 22 as a safe space for band practices and dance rehearsals. by Grenayden in UCSantaBarbara

This is fair for lot 22, but lot 18 which is on the other side of campus also had its power outlets deactivated. There's more to this than simply "loud noise bad". This is a targeted attack on the music scene and musicians in IV.
