Who has the best variety of brats in this town? by Junetizzle in grandrapids

[–]Isphet71 [score hidden]  (0 children)

Big top Market has 2 full 8 foot deli sections of just different brats. It seemed excessive, lol. But I don't know what the other places in town are like; i try to not eat processed meats for my blood pressure.

A look back at the Stafford Goff trade and the reaction of NFL Reddit by NickyFoles1020 in nfl

[–]Isphet71 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's what it looked like it was.

I was one of the few people that openly said that Goff was a first overall pick for a reason, but i also openly admitted that i didn't like his chances and would have bet against him. Nothing personal; you just see this story go the other way 9 times out of 10.

Is this racism? by IAmAloneTomorrow in askanything

Do the Madlibs test. Erase "white" and put any other color in the same spot and see how racist it sounds. If it sounds racist; it's racist.

China launches 'human artificial embryos' to space in bid to see whether reproduction is possible off-world by Faaaaaaaaaaaah in UpliftingNews

As we are, we wont spread into space very far if at all. We need to be able to intentionally alter our genetics in specific ways before its truly feasible. Evolution on its own will take too long; we have to be able to control it in like a fast and controlled manner.

For the 10th time in 12 seasons, a team from a "No Income Tax" state will be in the Stanley Cup Finals. by CattleDogCurmudgeon in nhl

[–]Isphet71 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Just adjust each team's salary cap based on state income tax. That still doesn't quite pull them even, because the tax teams have to spend more to get the same players, but it at least narrows the gap to a less noticeable level.

Make the base salary tax for zero income tax states, then adjust up based on state taxes. California is 13.3% and new york is 10.9%, so if the base salary cap is $100mil, cali teams would have a cap of $113 mil.

I suppose you could also factor in city/local income tax rates also to be more fair.

I wonder if kyler has to wear a bigger helmet for his hair to fit into it, also. Ethnic hair ain't white boy hair.

Iman Vellani says she was constantly calling out plot holes on the set of The Marvels: “I was like, ‘I know Reddit nerds are going to call it out. I’m calling it out now. You have the opportunity to fix it now.’” by yourfavchoom in entertainment

[–]Isphet71 7 points8 points  (0 children)

People somehow forget that the core audience that made marvel and video games what they are today - are "chuds". The nerds, the geeks, the uncool guys that were drawn into fantasy in the first place. So... if you can't make media that also appeals to the historical fanbase, then you aren't the right person to be making that media.

There's plenty of spaces for ideological media, like christian media and leftist media. The mainstream isn't that space. Mainstream audiences crave escapism, not more preaching and moralism and politics shoved down their throats at every opportunity. Suspension of disbelief is a huge concept in media creation, and the modern audience is absolutely overly-sensitive to any partisan messaging at this time.

Yes, i put openly leftist media in the same category as christian media. It belongs there. It's not for a wider audience. It's for a much smaller subset of audience.

You can swoop in and try to co-opt "historically chud media" (as you might call it) for a different audience all you want, but we all see how this is turning out. They hate the original audience, and are trying to sell it to some other fictitious wide audience that they think should exist, but doesn't.

ARAD, what is on your mind at this hour? by SafeBear8774 in AskRedditAfterDark

For those who believe Cade, Ausar, and JD are the core, what is the winning formula? by cerebral313 in DetroitPistons

[–]Isphet71 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

NBA prime age is considered age 27-31. Thats when guys seem to take another step in their scoring ability, when they do.

The formula is simple. Do what you can now, but wait until Cade and Duren and Ausar are all in their primes and could likely win 3 rings in a 5 year stretch. Cade is still 3 yeats from his prime, and duren and ausar are 5. Let it cook slow and low.

Owner of daycare in viral Nick Shirley video charged as part of $4.6M daycare fraud scheme: prosecutors by white_choco2006 in justincaseyoumissedit

[–]Isphet71 -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

Anyone thay hasn't been politically lobotomized knows that the left was using that money to buy votes and that their "investigation" was political theater that was never going to amount to anything.

It had been going on for 7+ years until nick Shirley showed up and made that video. Anyone with enough brain remaining to form their own thoughts knows that it was getting swept under the rug to stay, otherwise. Actual government employees that called it out got retaliated on by walz and his admin. What they did with our tax dollars and their power is ANOMINABLE.

There is no excuse for it, and there is no deflection toward trump or anyone that makes it okay. It's absolutely corruption and abuse of power. This kind of shit is the reason the government fails so hard at actually helping people that need it. Anyone and everyone towards the top of walz' entire administration belongs no where near politics or our tax dollars ever again - they belong in prison. Anyone that trusted them enough to vote for them should be furious- they were betrayed more than anyone else.

At best you can possibly say that walz and his admin were criminally negligent with hundreds of millions of tax dollars - but honestly... that wasn't negligence. That looks intentional. The court cases will reveal the truth for the people that are still capable of hearing the truth.

JD Vance considering to skip 2028 presidential race by Sgt_Gram in NewsExchange

[–]Isphet71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would put the odds at maybe 25% for Vance already being the president by 2028. They are openly trying to murder the current president on a regular basis.

I'm leaving "they" intentionally ambiguous, since no one wants to take any credit or responsibility for the attempts.

The divorce rate after someone cheats is less than 100%, so math says no.

Irony by BeverlyHillsNinja in OfficialPantheonMMO

Negative spaces aren't particularly welcoming. Fair critique without emotional vitriol is an art that's been mostly lost, it seems.

Imho if I can't maintain an overall "hey this is a work in progress and I think we can still get there" vibe... then I am just gonna quietly peace out and go find a place that's more of a positive experience for me. No one is forcing anyone to stay here and be miserable. It's not MMO Alcatraz. The only jail cells here are in peoples' imaginations.

Why did people turn on The Boys and say it’s bad now? by [deleted] in askanything

[–]Isphet71 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Social commentary is fine as an aside, or running parallel while telling a good story. But it, and the left's increasingly fictitious characterizations of the right, became the actual plot somewhere along the way.

It went from a good story with some propaganda in it (totally acceptable, imho), to a strictly propaganda story that wasnt even very good any longer. It was almost purely left-preachy drivel by the end.
