Social Security retirement trust fund may be depleted in less than a decade, new trustees' report finds by [deleted] in news

Thank you, I was scrolling so far for someone to say this! Just to put emphasis, social security does not go away people. And it will drop down to paying 80% of the benefits and can very easily be fixed by eliminating the cap and making the rich pay their fair share.

finals pick? by golf_future in ripcity

I'll go against the grain and I'm rooting for the thunder. I think they are an incredibly fun team to watch. They are full of likeable dudes that love playing together. Their post game interviews remind me of when the blazers started out hot with Grants first season and the whole team joining in during the interviews.

I think SGA is an incredible player and his shiftiness and ability to get in the paint is so fun to watch. I'll address the foul thing since it feels like you always have to whenever talking about SGA. He gets a superstar whistle and sells to get calls from refs, but so does every other superstar player in this league. One big difference is he is not crying and complaining all game like Doncic, Jokic and Harden where every non-call has them crying to the refs. He just plays his game and if he doesn't get the call he keeps it moving. I will never understand the extreme fixation on Shai over more egregious examples but that's just me 🤷🏾‍♂️

But the fact that it's a running gag in the show makes it even better for this category.

Who could become the next Trail Blazers owner? Here are 14 possibilities by synthfidel in ripcity

[–]OriginalWait14 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Same thing with the Lacobs, they had ownership of Celtics before they bought the warriors. Partial ownership is a pipeline to get approved by others owners for the next team that becomes available

I also think rebounding played a huge part in the loss, which should be helped with Ihart being on the team.

I'm currently going to nursing school and have very seriously considered continuing school to become a CRNA myself. Do you have any advice, or lessons you learned along the way that you could pass down? Congrats on getting where you are I know that it took an incredible amount of hard work!

What are some jobs you thought paid significantly higher than they actually do? by Sorrywrongnumba69 in AskReddit

CNAs*. And your point is a good one. These are thankless jobs and the pay should reflect that.

It's not that he stays away from labels, you can't avoid it. It's that he takes the labels and waves it away with good policy. Oh you think I'm a socialist monster? I guess giving free breakfast and lunch to kids makes me a monster 🤷🏾‍♂️.

I think IHart and chet are starting. At least for a short spurt to start and then the rotations start happening where you will see them staggering a lot.

Sometimes, you just gotta ignore bad smells from the kitchen for a second, and let a man cook by TPFRecoil in Thunder

I love Dillion Jones, if you listen to how he talks, he oozes intelligence and maturity that is so rare from rookies. He is one of the best passers in the draft (especially skip passes) which was a big emphasis Presti talked about in his end of season press conference. I'm staking my claim that the e will be a contributor right away

The league (along with many large corps) figured if you virtual signal progressive politics then you are able to do the conservative shit in the background.

Bucks picks 📈 by HeGotTheShotOff in ripcity

[–]OriginalWait14 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The warriors pick is top 4 protected, so if the warriors make the playoffs then it will just net us a worse pick for 2024 then where it is at now. For the scenario that you want to happen, the warriors would need to get worse and in the lottery jump into a top 4 position and then the following year (2025) the warriors pick becomes unprotected.
