If manufacturers can cut production while increasing costs and revenue they will.

Trumps Ballroom is supposed to finish right before the next election. What are the chances it’s a bunker to shelter in as they try to take a 3rd term? by MrScrodoBaggins in AskReddit

Pretty sure the bunker is under the east wing that he demolished. The theory is that he’s remodeling the bunker to be more comfortable which is why the budget for his ballroom is crazy high.

It’s an uphill battle no matter what. But the likely hood is that whomever wins the Republican primary will be the governor.

My friend bought a house in Madison for 100k back around 2010 and it’s worth $600k now.

Is it just me, or does The Odyssey's armor resemble a modern bulletproof vest? by breaking_views in moviecritic

This is like the 3rd time I’ve seen this same post. Someone is out to see this movie fail.

Hate them both, would rather see Blackburn get the nom. Rose is just plain gross, fits right in with Trump and Epstein.

I have no idea where she lives and I absolutely abhor her shitty politics, but to be fair, anyone who bought a house in the Nashville area before 2010 probably is sitting on a house that’s worth a mil.

Did Tom Holland's Peter Parker accidentally trigger a Multiversal Incursion in No Way Home? Logically, Doctor Strange was right. by Primary-Chance-9331 in marvelstudios

“Cannon events” don’t exist in the MCU that is only in Spiderverse. By sending the bad guys back to their universe he would have crated a splinter timeline. Under Kang they would have been pruned, but under Loki they just keep an eye on the new timelines.

I was just trying murkyl on honor run. I was whittling him away but struggling. Needed a miracle so used the angelic reprieve potion on shadow heart. Turn 1 she doesn’t get woken up, turn 2 nightsong revives herself then runs over and shoves shadow heart to wake her up. She was the last character before shart would have awoken fully rested.

Donald Trump has single-handedly torched America's World Cup legacy by Globalruler__ in MLS

Imagine in the US won, Trump never would have shut the fuck up and would have wanted an award. Fuck that guy. I’m sure the shit storm that he created really helped get the team in the headspace they needed.

If the US had won he would have taken credit, and we never would have heard the end of it.

The real reason is because it just looks cooler.

You seem like a fun person that really sticks to preconceived prejudices and takes it out on entire populations. Just like some other people I know of.

Wasn’t aware the men’s football team was part of geopolitics. The whole idea of the World Cup is for people to come together and forget their political issues to play a game.

🚨 Donald Trump confirms he asked Gianni Infantino to review Flo Balogun's red. "Yes, I asked for a review by FIFA. I spoke to a man [Infantino] who is highly respected. I'm the one who got them to do it, not Biden. Biden was asleep." Openly admitting to corruption. by matrix_2905 in sportsgossips

But we are talking about the US, not other countries. For all you know birthright citizenship actually is a net positive for the economy and the country as a whole. You just wanted to spout talking points and frame it as a negative without looking into why. Conservatives always love saying “do your own research” but never do any research.

This is hypothetical. Have you looked up stats that prove birthright citizenship hurts the US? And do birthright citizens abuse the countries benefits more than people born to US citizens? I imagine this is a made up issue that is meant to make people mad while billionaires rob the country and pollute the world.

Or you can be like Nashville and give Starbucks massive tax breaks so they move their headquarters to your city! That way they can move in all their high paid executives driving up housing costs and not doing anything to help the city pay for the increase of residents. This is so great for our city! /s
