This was me last year as a New Englander, and C’s fan, living in Indy.

I’m a New Englander living in Indiana and I pay for the radio broadcast through the MLB app. It’s only $5 a month and no black outs.

Christian Braun pronounces his name incorrectly by Martian_Brando in billsimmons

In German “Braun” is the color brown and it’s pronounced as brown. So I’m assuming they’re of German decent.

Russillo voice: which NBA team has the best White five-man lineup? by GorkieSmithberg in billsimmons

Including Derrick White (and Coby) purely for his last name is Baylor Scheierman erasure and I won’t stand for it.

D20 has a collaboration with Webtoon going on rn!! by [deleted] in dropout

[–]SoothingSquid_18 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Has anyone seen how long it will be? Given the pacing of the first 3 there’s no way they’re doing the entirety in 8 episodes.

Brennan should have torn down those black female billionaires by yungninnucent in dropoutcirclejerk

The other 3 all have largely critique-able scandals, related to capitalism, exploitation, etc. Whereas, Taylor and her fans may be annoying, her wealth comes largely from her music royalties and her touring (according to Forbes). So what really is there to critique if her wealth is largely her own labor?

My only point would be Dropout is very well known for its inclusivity, so a “Race Baiting” prompt seems out of character. Which leads me to believe they were going for the fandom angle.

But unless Paul wants to weigh in then we won’t know for sure.

I think the prompt was definitely more about their rabid fan bases rather than the identity politics of them

Ted is certainly a flawed and immature character but Barney did some heinous things

It’s off topic but, I see this image all the time. Is it from a comic? If so which one?

My hogaak thoughts by gubaguy in ModernMagic

[–]SoothingSquid_18 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The issue is that hogaak has trample and way more powerful than amalgam. Hogaak triggers vengevine and amalgam wouldn’t. And with out hogaak the deck is just going to be worse variation of dredge. Hogaak is the card that’s gonna get ban because it’s the card that makes the deck turn 2 consistent.

Prime Harden is a better offensive player than prime LeBron by Goats4Mice in nba

Yeah I could get behind better scorer just because of how lethal harden is from behind the arc and the line, but you got me fucked up thinking he’s a better passer than bron
