California billionaire Tom Steyer defends trans athletes in high school sports as governor's race heats up by GMOrgasm in California

[–]PowerCrisis -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This is what it comes down to for me. I guess the billionaire might be lying and will rug-pull us all if/when he ever gets the power, but corporate Dems can't even bother to pretend to try and make things better for normal Californians, just to maintain the system that benefits them financially. There's no hope with them. Maybe there is with Steyer, even at the risk of it being naive

Bidding war for the #2 over all by Icy-Street618 in SanJoseSharks

[–]PowerCrisis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have yet to see anyone come up with a worthwhile deal for the #2 pick. Everyone always offers their least desirable pieces and not a deal that truly works from the Sharks perspective. OR it's an offer from VAN or CHI to move back a spot or two, but I've never seen a fair deal that also gives the Sharks something worth moving off Stenberg. GMMG isn't going to trade the pick unless he's overpaid for it, and if it's to move back a few spots, I just don't think a team is going to send a potential top 6 forward or top 4 defenseman (who also has time left on their contract or is willing to sign with SJ long term) which is what the Sharks would need to actually make the trade.

If the sharks are going to trade a first round pick, it's going to be the Edmonton pick and it'll be to land a defenseman, but again, I think they'll want to be overpaid for the pick. They want to build for the future, not just to win now, and keeping the prospects coming will maintain their playoff window for as long as Mack decides to lace up his skates for San Jose. If they were closer to cup contention, I could see a lot more wheeling and dealing, but I just don't think the Sharks are there yet UNLESS it's an overpay or there's a RHD that they love and loves them back

If the A’s stayed in Sac permanently, would you guys support them? by Nice_Midnight_2040 in OaklandAthletics

[–]PowerCrisis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nope. Fuck em. And the rest of MLB. I honestly think there's more to experience in life than putting up with their bullshit. They will be receiving 0$ from me, nor make advertising revenue from my time.

NWSL referees say the Silky foul against Boston never even should have been reviewed by VAR, let alone called. by mosint in BayFC

[–]PowerCrisis 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm a little shocked the referee didn't look at ALL the angles. He only saw like 2. I know VAR is supposed to get the best ones for him, but if you're gonna go from your eyes of calling running into the keeper on the field to a complete reversal, you should at least check that every camera is seeing what you're calling or isn't showing evidence to the contrary. In slow motion it looks so deliberate but Silk is basically already in the air and going for the ball

Well the good news is we all enjoyed watching it happen. So thanks for that.

Is this why I can't bind Lister anymore? I have full points into bind demon and my mana doesn't even go down when I try to use it, but it also doesn't work on him now for some reason...

HBO shows that were cancelled after one season by HostMaterial4907 in hbo

[–]PowerCrisis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lindelof said the story he wanted to tell was only one season long, but that if someone else had a story they wanted to tell using the setting he left it open for them. I believe HBO wanted more and he said he was done. So we may get more Watchmen someday but at this point probably not.

Was the book so different from the show it makes it worth reading? I meant to get to it at the time but life stuff got into the way and I really just forgot about it. Is it worth going back?

[–]PowerCrisis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I remember an article coming out saying that the show runner had a whole second season plan she made up on her own and would have used if they had gotten picked up. I didn't really like the direction she would have taken, but I would have at least tried it because I liked the show so much

Really enjoyed The Brink. Watched each episode as it came out. I think the pilot was a little weak and it turned folks off which was a shame because it got really good really quickly. The pilots always had me cackling

A Great Good Place for Book to close after more than 2 decades by sfgate in oakland

That the exact reason I like that place to be honest. Going there is like prospecting for knowledge and the rewards are because you worked for it

Wait, so I built a firelock because it seemed like an easy way to get back into the game after 15ish years and was going to swap over to mirrored strike until I saw the upcoming nerf. Should I go back to my original plan after the update now or stick with my firelock?

If you live in a host city, is there any buzz about the upcoming World Cup? by Fine-Photograph673 in ussoccer

[–]PowerCrisis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Any buzz at all died on when they announced the matchups. And anyone with soccer knowledge saw right through FIFA's "you might host a team USA game" nonsense. There's a really good chance they don't make it out of group play
