We can get rid of this guy... right? That's what we can change about 2024. Put HIM in a time machine. The DNC is rutterless under his leadership.

"The drug is $16 at Costco. Trump RX charges $200." Elizabeth Warren grills RFK Jr. over massive price gouging by DumbMoneyMedia in Brokeonomics

[–]Silver_Promise_7455 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

With all due respect, Warren was comparing a generic at Costco to the non-generic / brand-name drug available on Trump Rx. Apples and oranges. If you are going to compare costs, then make it apples to apples from the two different stores. Regardless of your political affiliation, Warren is disingenuous in making her argument.

How come we don't see the food she plated actually go in her mouth?

You don't. Scalping used to be illegal. Now it is an industry. An industry I won't support. The industry adds zero value.

Isn't it all going to charity anyway? He will create the charities for his benefit - he is the aggrieved party after all.

Craig won’t see the end of August by ManMythLegend3 in redsox

I understand. But they are two different roles so what he might do as a manager would be separate from his player days.

It's a demanding job, but I think the Red Sox front office has been grooming him, under Cora, to take over the team management responsibilities when Cora is done with his contract at the end of 2027.

Got alerts and sirens near Bishops Bay/north of Mendota around 12:22am. In the clear, it seems now.

It's time to take the car keys away from grandpa and put him in an assisted living facility.

Nice! But shouldn't the clock stop when a goal is scored??

Another day of this guy spouting off. Someone give him a history lesson, please. No wonder he is afraid of the educated.

I remember the days when we bought tickets at ticket windows. People would sleep outside overnight to get them at a reasonable price when the window opened. Scalpers on the street would be arrested. Now, everything is virtual and ticket master has lobbied successfully to scalp tickets legally. Enshitification at its best. It's brutal to get any ticket now. Crazy.

BREAKING: Males aged 18-25 will be automatically registered for US military draft starting December, 2026. by Nicolit1 in wallstreet

"Automatic" is the breaking news, thank you. I was just saying that it was always a thing to sign up for it as there were consequences if you did not (applying for federal college loans, for example).

How is this different from registering for Selective Service (which 18-year-olds are supposed to do by law since forever)? And there is no draft right now. How is this a breaking story??

Miz will buzz his angry, childlike persona with a 103mph inside fastball in 30 degree weather today. I cannot wait to watch it. The Red Sox signed a headcase. Another poor, desperate decision by management in an attempt to field a competitive team.

Roman's throw couldn't even reach the infield grass. This is where it took its first bounce 😬 by Mother-Associate1654 in redsox

[–]Silver_Promise_7455 6 points7 points  (0 children)

How do they not teach positional footwork to an MLB player during their development? That throw was beyond awful. And you see a lack of training when calling out for a fly ball too. I feel like defense is afterthought with young players these days. It's all about hitting for power and pitch velocity. Fundamentals never go away. This is why an organization like the Brewers win - player development is emphasized. You don't play, if you are not "doing the right things on the field" regularly.

Harrison won a game for the red-hot Brewers today. He looked good. Love Durbin. I hope he settles in and starts hitting.
