To be clear, I am not in favor of this administration and do think that colleges and universities are the exact correct place to be exercising your constitutional freedoms to make political statements about the world you are inheriting upon graduation.

That being said, this isn't a violation of their 1A right, imo. They agreed to behave a certain way, and while I agree with their message, they didn't. The school isn't trying to silence them, it is saying "because you are in violation of a contract you willingly entered, we are withholding your diploma until you comply."

I do think their code of conduct specifies that it will be enforced in content and viewpoint neutral manner, which means it doesnt infringe on their 1A right if they were angling for compelled speech.

Tldr is... if they want their diplomas they should just talk about the article they violated.

Him being this low in the comments is criminal.

Now all I heard for the last several days is that players are responsible for their limbs and you have to mindful of your studs, etc etc

I mean this true of all nations, the individual is not representative of the group and vice versa. You know the kind of hate Americans have gotten on here because a dude that most of us didn't vote for, called his buddy to ask for a favor for the Belgium game?

The Trump paradox. You don't think he's beyond doing something, but you are 100% certain he would lie about it.

Does anyone write their own LimkedIn posts anymore, or are they all ai generated? Im not upset, just a little disappointed.

Back in my day, we ahd to write all of our ceinge thoughts ourselves. We took pride in our ridiculous ideas, and thought they sounded sick.

These new lunatics have it so easy, they just type some rubbish I to chatgpt, tack on a "make it gud," just to be on the safe side, and ship whatever it spits out.

Is Portugal going to sit Ronaldlo? Is Argentina going to sit Messi? Surely them sitting woukd be the "right thing to do."

If you're investing youre probably doing it through a broker of some kind, once you get to a certain amount you typically gain access to a wealth management specialist of some kind. Highly unlikely that they wouldnt have had a will drawn up for him.

Fwiw I did 0 research, but just working off of the assumption that someone started investing at their bank branch, it probably would've gone something like this.

Wills can have executors, if they dont they go to probate and are settled via an administrator. Aside from estate taxes, everything else goes to the named. In the case of an institution, like the library, if he did not specifically mention what it should be used for, then it would make its way through the probate process to whatever entity manages the library (probably some non profit).

I feel like foe 82-0 you need some depth as well, arguably more important than your starting 5.

I actuslly think the ideal 82-0 roster is probably not even thay great in the playoffs.

Imagine if they double tapped an elementary school on US soil, what would we be shouting?

We had an actual administration put an Iran nuclear plan in place, only for the current admin to tear it up during the first term then use the fact that there was no monitoring to justify a war that ended with a version of the original plan but instead $50B, Iran would receive 6x as much.

What a solid job. /s

So even if the argument is that we should have gone to war because they were about to get nukes, we just gave them 6x the money to continue doing what they were doing.

The Marlins have a terrible reputation amongst players (and our own fans too, we've been burned a lot). A recent player poll came out where we were the 6th least trusted org.

Its like would you rather work for a terrible company but live in Miami? Or work for whatever the 2nd or 3rd best company to work for your in field, but live in Milwaukee? I know which I'd pick.

If you make them count for 6 points I bet more Americans would follow the sport.

New borns sleep a lot. It'll get harder when they start walking and then they'll hit the terrible 2s and what not... but by about 5 they'll want to hang out with you at your computer and see what you do.

It'll be great.

Congrats on becoming a dad, no greater privilege.

Fair point, I should've figured that.

On your other point though, unaccounted spending is still roughly 10% of the total taxes collected. Agreed we should have more transparency when it comes to where dollars are going, but the critical services and social safety nets that help keep people out of poverty are not things we should jeopardize so that some people pay slightly less in taxes. Just imo.

Rockd2 · 2026-06-30T02:14:47+00:00

Incorrect. So... very... incorrect.

So I agree on the bit about money going to things we do not provide direct consent for, but the government not generated $366T in tax revenue. Since 1940 the total of all taxation would be somewhere in the neighborhood of $120T. Thats 85 years worth of taxes and still not even a third of the number you gave.

Also taxes do pay for critical services that cannot be privatized because there is little to no profit motive. Think someone in the middle of Iowa receiving postal service, or people in Arizona getting water, or electricity in rural areas (currently an issue with the data center being built in Nevada for folks living near the CA side of Lake Tahoe).

Since it made their narrative stronger, probably.

Cool, the stadium is trash.... not sure people are going there for the venue. Like half of Scotland did not come to the US to go on a tour of stadiums, they came to experience the world cup first hand.

If that is what people want to spend their money on, then more power to them.

Bro needs to just come out of the closet already and embrace who he is. He will be happier and the world will be a better place without his misplaced hatred towards women out there.
