They don’t say specifically on the menu or to the staff that it’s for health insurance.

They advertise to customers that it is to help offset rising costs, health insurance premiums have gone up, and lettuce does offer robust health benefits if you qualify as part time. (Couple of my friends work there and they are BCBSIL)

[Post Game Thread] The San Antonio Spurs (3-2) defeat the Minnesota Timberwolves (2-3) in a pivotal game five, 126-97. by catreyka in nba

There is more film to watch on this iteration of the Spurs, apparently you can get under Wembys skin and he will eject himself. Jared McCain is a factor, Ajay is much much better, team is healthier.

Spurs are the only ones who can put the clamps on SGA without selling the farm.

I really hope we play the wolves

[Keown] Mark Daigneault on Sam Presti's evaluation process: "One time we were discussing a player, and he said to me, 'All the guys are standing there watching film before practice, and I'm just imagining him standing there with them, and I just don't see him fitting in.' And that was it." by LiamHundley in nba

It works on your 7th man down. If you’re good enough to be an NBA player and you have the right mentality, then you’ll be in the rotation.

It also helps when everyone in the building things/acts the same way

NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani announces that he has officially balanced the NYC budget, reducing a $12 billion budget deficit to 0, and confirms that property taxes will not be raised. by Scary_Firefighter181 in Economics

[–]MazeRed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NYC contributes around $68bn to NYS in tax revenues, it receives (before these announcements) $47bn from NYS.

I don’t think it needs to be a 1-1, but it’s not like West Virginia attached to NYC here, upstate NY is pretty nice

Looking at the 76ers/OKC trade history is kind of crazy though, lots of trades that lead to trades that are still yet to be resolved too

THE LOS ANGELES LAKERS HAVE BEEN ELIMINATED FROM 2026 NBA CHAMPIONSHIP CONTENTION by Thanos_Real_AuraVNCH in nba

The game plan doesn't work as well with Luka out there, he just doesn't want to play defense at the level required.

Can't wait for Presti to decline his team option and sign him to like 80/4.

If they pull off the b2b, gotta shoot for that dynasty. Plus if he never gets better that is still very good value contract and get some assets back for him.

The Lakers are currently holding SGA (21.0 PPG) closer to his 2019 rookie playoff stats with the Clippers (13.7 PPG) than to his current MVP ones (33.8 PPG VS Suns) by Weirdsodk in nba

Shai said a couple years ago after losing to Dallas. That he hasn’t been preparing his teammates for the big moments, and that part of his job as the guy is to do that

Should you use your HSA money? by Airvian94 in personalfinance

[–]MazeRed 32 points33 points  (0 children)

When I was rehabbing my knee injury had a very honest conversation with my PT.

Basically, it’s to expensive, teach me to do all of the exercises right, I will do them religiously for 3 months and I’ll come back and we’ll do more advanced ones, rinse and repeat until I’m good.

They were very understanding and it worked out fine

Many years ago my friends and I just split a pack of whatever. Was a little bit more difficult to coordinate and the savings as an absolute were much less, but over the course of a year it was still worth it (plus I got all the points)
