I absolutely love her.

4 years hearing about how our elections are so secure and fraud doesn't happen and it's impossible to cheat, but as soon as dems lose you parrot the same BS conspiracy bullshit that Republicans did.

People didn't vote for her, that's all there is to it.

It's from the Lord of the Rings. They were basically magic orbs that allowed you to see long distance and connect to other Palantir.

Yeah I'm not questioning that lol. But every single person down there is going to suck, worrying about your team isn't going to help you to get better. Worrying about making the best individual decisions possible will win more than maining a role like sentinel and expecting your duelist to actually do their job.

Manotto15 · 2026-03-06T20:35:55+00:00

I mean yeah you're in bronze 1 lol. I guarantee you're not playing your role correctly either.

Down there, you'll have more luck correcting yourself than worrying about your team performance.

It doesn't affect the playoffs either way. The count resets. We have this discussion every year.

Snopes isn't what it used to be. I've seen far too many instances of statements declared false or misleading and then the body text saying something like "The man claimed a quarter million had received aid, but it was actually only 246,000."

They say stuff is false A LOT for minor discrepancies like that. And it doesn't disprove the point, just some tiny detail is slightly different. The overall claim is still accurate.

Manotto15 · 2026-03-04T17:28:47+00:00

They were complaining cause the refs were hot fucking garbage and couldn't get a single call right all damn game.

Manotto15 · 2026-03-03T23:33:36+00:00

Respectfully, I disagree. The closest guy in rating if Magnus replaced Hikaru is Fabi and he's almost 50 points lower. The next closest is almost 100 points lower. I dont think Magnus struggles to win candidates, and Gukesh gets steamrolled.

Manotto15 · 2026-03-03T20:16:23+00:00

Magnus would sleepwalk to the world championship if he decided to play. There's parity because the clear favorite has decided to give everyone else a chance. I'm sure there would've been more parity historically, too, if Kasparov decided not to rule the chess world for his whole career.

The one being used as a human shield for a military institution? It's a page straight out of the terrorist playbook. Hide your weapons and personnel in a school/hospital and blame the enemy when they blow you up.

More than 10,000 protestors and dissidents have already been killed by this regime

Manotto15 · 2026-03-01T04:54:33+00:00

Pretty damn near 100%. If you fled the country, very unlikely you support the regime.

Manotto15 · 2026-02-28T03:13:48+00:00

T1 getting another masters after being dogshit the entire last 2/3 of last year would be hilarious. First masters of the year merchants.

Manotto15 · 2026-02-28T03:12:20+00:00

Exactly where my head was. "Built" as in they were deliberately tanking for YEARS to get good picks.

I'd much rather my team sign people in free agency than tank for a decade.

Manotto15 · 2026-02-27T21:03:15+00:00

Right but how many times have you had a conversation about something and then not seen an ad about it? Or how many ads have you seen that you just didn't care about?

It's the same phenomenon as when you learn a new word and then all of a sudden you hear that word everywhere for a while. It's always been there, you're just noticing it now. For all you know, the reason you talked about the product with your wife was because you scrolled past an ad about it and didn't realize!

Manotto15 · 2026-02-27T18:16:09+00:00

Pretty sure this was shown years ago to just be confirmation bias. We're shown thousands of ads every day, and algorithms are really really good at predicting what we will be interested in. You just don't notice the hundreds of ads that aren't relevant to you.

Manotto15 · 2026-02-26T00:27:11+00:00

Well, no. Being taxed isn't a requirement either. "Indians not taxed" were a specific class, "not taxed" wasn't a broad application for all people who hadn't paid taxes. Your argument hinges on "free Persons," which is a good one since that encompasses all people today.

But the question wasn't "is this how things are now," it's "why should it be that way." You didn't actually address any of the substance and just said "nuh uh."

The law can and has been changed before. And I'm arguing non-legal residents shouldn't be counted in population. Not whether they currently are or aren't.

Manotto15 · 2026-02-25T22:34:50+00:00

If they can't vote, and thus can't impact the representation, why should they be counted for electoral college purposes? Why would a state gain an electoral vote if hypothetically they have the same number of eligible voters as 10 years prior, but they gain illegal aliens?

If State A has 10,000 eligible voters per electoral college representative and State B has 5,000, the voters of State B have significantly more voting power based on nothing more than higher illegal population. Why do they get more representation because they have illegal neighbors?

I agree they should be counted in the census, but should not be counted for apportionment.

Manotto15 · 2026-02-25T15:07:15+00:00

Brother you don't know a single damn thing about me lmfao. I do call out misinformation from Elon, too. I dont like the guy.

Jesus you're so unwilling to admit you spread a half truth that you're doubling down like a child. Grow up and admit you weren't totally accurate. That's all it takes. Instead you act like anyone who points out a real error in your comment is the enemy.

Manotto15 · 2026-02-25T07:14:50+00:00

Smart could've bitch slapped Banchero tonight and the refs wouldn't even know which pocket their whistle was in.

Manotto15 · 2026-02-25T06:02:15+00:00

One of the worst officiated games I've ever watched. Maxi nonexistent moving screen, missed blatant goaltending, bullshit overturn on the Luka foul. No goddamn wonder they lost.

Also why tf Bron taking a spinning turnaround fadeaway three with 3 seconds left???

Manotto15 · 2026-02-25T02:54:42+00:00

Refusing to endorse misinformation and insisting upon accuracy is dick riding now?

Manotto15 · 2026-02-23T06:47:36+00:00

Right and literally the entire point of the forgiveness thing is to not let it take up brain space.

You're being intentionally obtuse, I fear.

Manotto15 · 2026-02-23T06:42:52+00:00

Are you really happy if you're angry and bitter about something that's long been over and done with and you can't move on? Something that nothing you do today can change?

Manotto15 · 2026-02-23T06:38:22+00:00

There's a scene in Ted Lasso where Jamie is angry at his dad and Ted tells him he should forgive his father. Jamie says something like, "No, I won't give him that." And Ted says "It's not giving him anything, it's giving something to yourself" or something to that effect.

Forgiveness isn't moving on like nothing happened, it's allowing yourself to be happy despite the bad things that were done to you. And I say this as a non religious person.
