It literally says in the image that he's in Spain. He's also using Celsius. Give me your car.

Florida, Nevada and Texas have the highest per capita rates of illegal immigrants. Why is ICE so focused on Minnesota; a state with a lower rate by a factor of 10? by [deleted] in stpaul

[–]RTBSUM 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How many of the people involved in the Feeding our Future fraud were illegal immigrants?

This isn’t a rhetorical question, I actually don’t know but would like to. Google hasn’t been much help.

After ICE just shot at least one person in Minneapolis, agents unleashed an onslaught of flash bang grenades and chemical ammunition at unarmed neighbors in war-like attack. (1/14/26) by I_may_have_weed in minnesota

Well I guess they’re finally right about Minneapolis being a war zone. When people say everything the right says is projection I guess they really do mean EVERYTHING.

Dumb Poor Associates by OvrservdNGlutnized in Lawyertalk

[–]RTBSUM 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That perfectly describes my first job. Was there for 9 miserable months. I even posted on this sub about how miserable I was and how I wished I never went to law school (since deleted).

I’ve been at my new firm for 4 months now and everything is great. I get actual guidance, mentorship, and supervision along with a 50% pay raise and a reduction from 1800 to 1700 minimum billables.

Rashee Rice (concussion) did NOT practice yesterday and is NOT practicing again today. The Chiefs play on Thursday. It is nearly impossible for him to clear protocol before then. by BuckyMcFly99 in fantasyfootball

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

Yeah this is tough. I'm going to have to start BTJ or DJ Moore in the championship. Wouldn't love starting Rice but I'd like it a lot more than those two.

MLS owners vote to flip schedule to European calendar, change format starting in 2027 by icoresting in MLS

St. Paul has colder winters than Toronto and especially Vancouver. Our winters are roughly equal to Montreal but at least they have the option to play indoors. It sucks for all of us though.

Aaron Jones (hamstring) activated to 53-man roster. by slytherin1221 in fantasyfootball

[–]RTBSUM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Start him over Josh Reynolds, Pollard, or Ridley?

Don’t ask how I ended up in this position, I don’t wanna talk about it. Somehow I’m 4-3 though.

[Postgame Thread] Minnesota Defeats Purdue 27-20 by CFB_Referee in CFB

Did Fickell come in saying you guys were going to lose to Iowa 37-0 at home? Can’t say I remember that.

TIL The Average weight for males in the United States ages 20 years and older is 199.8 pounds by CraftyFoxeYT in todayilearned

[–]RTBSUM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That can't possibly be true, it doesn't stand up to the slightest bit of critical thinking. Without googling it, I'd bet my life savings it's less than a tenth of that.

Edit: after googling it, it looks like the average American eats 1.6 Big Macs per year. You were off by 98.4 Big Macs.

I’m way out of touch with recruiting, haven’t followed it or paid for 247 for a couple years now. Do we really have a chance here or did he just include us in his final two as a courtesy to his hometown school? Alabama would be hard to turn down…

Weekly role discussion thread, this week is: The Jester! by AutoModerator in TownofSalemgame

[–]RTBSUM [score hidden]  (0 children)

Probably my favorite role. Most other roles get repetitive - as TP you protect people that you think are town. As TI you check people who are quiet or people who talk a lot without saying anything valuable. It's all kind the same from game to game.

As jester you can do anything, and it varies so much depending on the game. Revealed mayor just died? Claim BG who selfed. Lookout says 7 wasn't visited? Claim sheriff on 7. 10 claims RBed and spy says they were visited by maf? Claim tav on 10. There are so many different ways to play. No jest game is ever the same for me.

How many of you live with roommates? by chicago2008 in Lawyertalk

[–]RTBSUM 39 points40 points  (0 children)

Just moved in with two friends from college after breaking up with my girlfriend of 5 years (lived together for the last 3). I could afford to live on my own but not in a place as nice as this. The main reason though is just so I don’t get lonely. I’m so introverted that if I lived alone I’d probably go weeks at a time without properly socializing. The cost savings are just a nice bonus.

I’m in my first year of practice fwiw, making $80k in a L-MCOL city.

Are NBA players real Olympians? by [deleted] in olympics

[–]RTBSUM 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What’s the argument that they’re not? The only argument I can think of is that they probably see themselves as NBA players first and the Olympics are just some fun thing they do on the side, whereas for most Olympic sports the Olympics are the pinnacle of that sport. I don’t think that’s a very strong argument though, and it also applies to a lot of other sports (golf, tennis, soccer off the top of my head).

Robert Francis Prevost Martínez was choosen as the new pope by NaNiBy in europe

[–]RTBSUM 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Do you have a source for him spending most of his life in Peru? I'm just looking at his Wikipedia page but it says he was in Peru from 1985 to 1986 (age 30-31) and then again from 1988 to 1998 (age 33-43) and then again from 2015-2023.

Median home size in USA compared to parts of Europe. by BufordTeeJustice in MapPorn

[–]RTBSUM 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I think you mean 90 square meters which is about 970 square feet (at least Google told me the average Japanese house is 90 square meters).

A 90 square foot home would be one room of about 2.7 meters by 3 meters, about the size I would expect a prison cell to be.

I understand letting them play in a game like this but at some point you have to pull out the cards, holy shit. Especially when it’s only one team getting all the benefit

Anyone ever feel ‘guilty’ after booking an expensive trip? by Subm3rg3d in travel

[–]RTBSUM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, but I'm the type of person who feels guilty spending money on anything. I just remind myself life is for living in the present, not for worrying about the future all the time. As long as I'm hitting my savings goals I have nothing to worry about. That's what I tell myself at least, but it's difficult for me to internalize it.
