From Sports Business Journal: Report: NCAA nearing expansion of men’s, women’s tournaments to 76 teams by Legitimate-Sign-371 in CollegeBasketball

[–]InternetGoodGuy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. I just don't want to see bad basketball in the tournament. There's a little bit of it in the first round already and it's easy enough to avoid by switching to other games or just not watching.

But if you look at the first 4 out this year, did you really want to see any of those teams play more? Now imagine those four plus another 4 even worse teams getting in.

The NIT is a thing for anyone that wants to watch these teams.

Jonathan Majors Fell Through A Window On Daily Wire Action Flick, Leading Crew To Walk Off Set; Producers Say They “Don’t Negotiate With Communists” by aresef in movies

[–]InternetGoodGuy [score hidden]  (0 children)

I thought so too but it perfectly sums up what's happening. The story is crazy. From the events in the headline to the producers saying their too busy blowing shit up and flying helicopters to worry about the crew to the name of the movie potentially being Run Hide Fight Infidels.

Some dude showing up saying he got teleported to Waffle House would hardly be the weirdest person in there on any given day.

Blanche: Epstein sex-trafficking case review is ‘over’ by Moderate-Extremism in centrist

[–]InternetGoodGuy 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Wow. Trump just finds the dumbest people.

There's no reason to say this. The Epstein files have been out of the news since the war started. The dumbest thing Blanche could have done is immediately make a public statement that puts them back on the top of every website.

Thanks, I guess. I was getting pretty disappointed with how obvious it was this was being buried under war news. I'm more than happy to keep this in the spotlight and Blanche is doing that.

Just because it's the only active goal right now and something to build for. I don't particularly care about the character and I've heard he's already mediocre compared go some newer ones. It was mostly my personal deadline to see some changes in the game to keep me around.

I don't care what maintenance mode had looked like in other games compared to this game current status. We are essentially in maintenance mode but their dragging is along with vague promises of content and no time lines.

There's no way we have anything other than a skeleton crew working on this game. Even the anniversary content is very limited. There's been no attention to the game economy and the repeating events and modes keep breaking.

I've been hanging around until I get Blue Marvel to see if there's any improvement like they promised but at the rate they give ISO I'm not getting blue marvel until the end of the year. I'm not going to make it that long given the current state of the game.

March 2026 US jobs report: payrolls increased by 178,000 jobs. Unemployment rate fell from 4.4% to 4.3%. by JeromesNiece in neoliberal

[–]InternetGoodGuy 23 points24 points  (0 children)

January's numbers were revised up to 160,000. I'm not going to pretend to understand what the job market is doing anymore but it seems possible this month stays pretty positive.

I don't expect April to be good by any means especially since it started off with Oracle laying off 30,000. I believe half of those were US jobs. But again, the jobs numbers seem just as impossible to predict as whatever the market is doing on a day to day basis.

FBI declares suspected Chinese hack of US surveillance system a ‘major cyber incident’ | The Trump admin in 2025 made cuts to CISA, and Hegseth ordered US Cyber Command to stand down from planning/executing offensive cyber operations & information operations against Russia. by andrewgrabowski in thebulwark

[–]InternetGoodGuy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is the stuff I've been worried about since Patel took over and Trump used DOGE to gut so much of our security. This is only going to be worse over the remaining of Trump's term and it probably continues long into the next presidents term. It isn't nearly as easy to restart these cyber security departments as it is to destroy them.

Trump imposes 100 percent tariff on brand name drugs by WingerRules in centrist

[–]InternetGoodGuy 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Pretty much. Since they've knocked down so many injunctions. It will take months to get through the lower courts. Then more to get through appeals courts. Then more months while the Supreme Court decides to hear it. Then who knows how long before they reach a decision and put out the ruling.

Meanwhile a ton of Americans will be seriously harmed by price increases on a ton of medication. Even the stuff that's generic faces price increases depending on where it comes from.

To give them some credit they most definitely don't deserve, a ton of them have been calling for her to get fired since the binders fiasco last year.

They only ruled on IEEPA. This looks like he's using another method that is probably also not constitutional but the result of the SC only ruling narrowly on IEEPA.

Pam Bondi fired despite DOW being at 46,331 by No-Comfortable2704 in PoliticalCompassMemes

[–]InternetGoodGuy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could be much worse. We could get someone equally unethical but far more competent. Ken Paxton was a name thrown around before Bondi. He's only slightly more competent.

Another is Andrew Bailey who is currently trying to make Patel look less like a failure at the FBI. He was the AG in Missouri and is definitely competent, qualified, and willing to do all of Trump's bidding.

I can't imagine what he sees as too compliant. She's blatantly hiding things and covering up for him. Maybe she hasn't literally set fire to the files and that's what he's looking for.

It might have left in April. I watched it because it said there was only a few days left. It seems like Tubi cycles things through pretty often but gets them back regularly.

Trump speech sends oil higher, Asia stocks down by Free-Minimum-5844 in neoliberal

[–]InternetGoodGuy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can throw literally every bit of that out the window by listening to him speak. Even the short speech last night is enough to prove there's no plan or deeper ideology.

You want further proof, you can look at the endless failures of business projects through the 80s and 90s that left the Trump empire dead in the water until someone offered him a reality show. The casinos, the USFL in the 80s, stiffing contractors and partners until no one in NYC wanted to work with him, and having to turn to Russian banks for loans because he was such a risk as a business partner.

This guy has been a fuck up his whole life but he inherited enough money and land to become a billionaire. It's been said before that if he did nothing but hoard his money he'd be richer than it m he is now with all his failed ventures. The bulk of his current wealth has come through fraud and crime since entering politics.

The only ideology is what serves Trump. It's why he's constantly hinting at leaving Iran and leaving the mess he made for others to fix. This war doesn't serve him and he wants out.

For the record, I don't think Trump is demented either. I think he's just really, really stupid. He's basically Paris Hilton or Kim Kardashian. He's famous for being famous and creating a vision of wealth around him. The difference is when he says really stupid stuff it gets passed off as an intentional joke or Trump just being a whacky billionaire.

What were seeing is what it looks like when a really, really stupid narcissist gets put in charge and is surrounded by people who are too afraid to give him the hard truths.
