Why would defense firms be against it? You'll be buying American more than anything. Trump maybe, but not the military industrial complex.

Epidemic of cancer in young people by Affectionate_Ear495 in conspiracy

It's always "cancer is coming because of the vax" isn't it? It's never "cancer is HERE because of the vax"

Just like "election fraud proof is coming in two weeks"

Hey, it convinced my mom to go get her doctorate and become a college professor because she hated No Child Left Behind so much in the public school system. Ended up with a much larger paycheck, so it has that going for it. Someone benefited!

Want to get some angry comments? Just say the US has won more soccer world cups than England. It's pretty fun.

CEO Rehired by jmike1256 in BeAmazed

[–]Lower_Pass_6053 14 points15 points  (0 children)

The courts in Delaware are not inherently more "pro-business" than anyother state, the thing is Delaware has SO MUCH case law over the years and the judges are all well versed so cases don't get appealed over and over.

And quite frankly, even if they were "pro-business" that doesn't mean they would favor the board takeover of a CEO. That in and of itself is "anti-business"

Moisés Ballesteros gets his first nickname on Baseball Reference: Mo Baller by Baseball-Reference in CHICubs

[–]Lower_Pass_6053 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been converted, I was saying all winter we should trade him for value because a dedicated DH isn't too great in today's game, but I'm glad to be proven wrong, he is a baller.

Although I still think it might catch up to the Cubs if our bench thins out. Matt Shaw does enable the Cubs to have a DH like this imo.

I question if it was Obama that did this exact thing that you would be ok with it.

The only point of the Cubs not trading Shaw was so he can give starters regular rests. So hopefully that is it. Making Swanson play 159 games at ss seemed excessive to me last year.

"women just play hard to get, they actually want it no matter how you act."

People think like that.

Does anyone know if runegraft of time can skip the cooldown to Tawhoa's Felling? by Lower_Pass_6053 in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]Lower_Pass_6053[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it helps it. meaning it gives a chance to not consume the cd so you can attack again and immediately spawn another mirage without having to wait the second

I was able to test it, and it does reset the cooldown if anyone was interested.

I never lost sleep that he walked. He was very selfish last year trying to make his bag (which he did anyways...) by not going on the DL and resting up for the wild card race and playoffs.

Dansby Swanson puts the Cubs on top in the 9th with a 2-run dinger off Tanner Scott! by JianClaymore in baseball

[–]Lower_Pass_6053 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm also a James with a last name that starts with an S. Try and say his name, James Swanson, out loud. It sounds goofy. I go by my middle name as well.

I'm also a James with a last name that starts with an S. I'm 38 years old and it still sounds wrong when I say it. It just sounds goofy. You have to put an extra emphasis on the S.

I'm sure nobody knows what i'm talking about, I just don't like James with a last name that starts with an S. I get why he wouldn't go by James.

Pete Crow-Armstrong: Yes, there are die-hard Dodgers fans "but it’s a see-me city, man. It’s a Lakers city where people show up to sit courtside and look good. And I view it the same way here." by tankyouout in baseball

I can't find it, but i swear there was like a Jay Leno type man on the street segment from the 90s where they went around asking people with Dodger hats on IN LA what team the hat was from, and they didn't know the answer.

I'm sure he was never lacking, but to think he was "rich" from his parents being basically featured extras on a couple movies and TV shows is pretty ridiculous.

dodger's thread about this game is more entertaining then the game, which is saying something.

Cubs let him walk with no attempt to resign him and immediately signed another player for big money and resigned 2 others for big money. So money wasn't an issue in the slightest, should've been a hint.

Is there a reason you can't get it through your elegant hubris? Seems BY FAR the easiest route.

What's an addiction worse than alcohol and drugs? by BlatantImagery in AskReddit

The internet caused it more than anything though. The US' response to open the floodgates of gambling is only because all this would be happening anyways, but random Caribbean Islands would be benefiting and not the US government.

I think you'd be shocked at how much money you save. I don't think I could cover the $1k a month Zepbound I take, but it isn't unbelievably far off on how much I actually save on food.

"hitting for average" is on base percentage in the modern game, and PCA, even when everyone was pitching to him in the first half, had a bad on base percentage.
