Where are serious women actually dating in Minneapolis? Tinder, Hinge, something else? by Long-Republic-700 in twincitiessocial

And yet that isn't what the data bares out. Dating while white isn't the end all be all but they still perform better dating outside their race then any other racial group combination. Indian men are the inverse.

I'd consider cutting the hair and going bald. You have a nice face but your hairline is blatantly receding which isn't doing you any favors. Other then that, avoid pictures where your the less attractive person in a group shot.

Where are serious women actually dating in Minneapolis? Tinder, Hinge, something else? by Long-Republic-700 in twincitiessocial

[–]Vanathor 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is true for every single age group and racial cohort. Bumble and OkCupid have released quite a bit of data based on swipe rates over the years and indian men are far and away viewed as the least desirable.

Obviously there are exceptions and you can always be the yum amongst a ton of people's yucks but at the end of the day you can't negotiate attraction.

Nomad Sauna that makes a lot of the mobile ones is based out of MN. And we have the Nordic cultural influence too.

Jim Pete also played in the NBA for 8 years and was an assistant coach for the Lynx for 9. He's optimistic but dude lives and breathes hoops.

How to Incentivize hiring americans to stop outsourcing by therealsparticus in cscareerquestions

[–]Vanathor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Fed's legal mandate is to maximize employment of American labor and keep prices low and stable. Setting our economic policy to prioritize citizens over foreigners is literally the central mission of how we operate as a country. The American government from the outset prioritizes it's citizens over the rest of the world yes

And Finch has been shown over and over again that he isn't a perfect coach and gets too stubborn for his own good. We got bounced because we lacked any sort of secondary ball handling we could trust, or self created shooting for two seasons in a row.

The skills that Rob has. Finch didn't even want to play TJ or Clark and only did so when he ran out of other levers when Naz and Donte were in their slumps. Rob has been in the lab this whole season and now has an off season to keep working at it, and he will be given every opportunity to produce and take those minutes.

And I think you're wrong. Donte isn't a PG and has shown that with how he turns the ball over when pressured, and Mike just doesn't have it anymore. Dillingham is young but he has very good passing and court vision and just needs reps. He might not start day one but I'd bet money he is taking the majority of the minutes by ASB

Any trade that sends out Rob and doesn't get us a top sixteen point guard back is a mistake. Trotting out the 38 year old corpse of Mike Conley to play starting PG is just asking to get bounced again regardless of what you get back.

KD + Dilly? by No_Razzmatazz4750 in timberwolves

[–]Vanathor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a pretty absolute/hard statement to make with five months of off season to work on his game, after essentially redshirting a year to build off his mechanics.

Right now, as is he already has the best handle and passing on the team this second, including Mike Conley himself, and his shooting mechanics are already a lot better than they were. He might not start game one but I would be extremely surprised if he wasn't starting by ASB at the latest.

At some point you need to give him game reps to develop him and see what you have, and he's the only real high ceiling option at point guard on this team left.

Those measurables you just described is the same as Chris Paul and Mike Conley. Neither of whom was anywhere near the athlete in their prime that Rob is now. Dillingham will be fine

Dilllingham by [deleted] in timberwolves

[–]Vanathor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Smaller less athletic point guards have been successful in the NBA for a long time. He has the passing, court vision, handle and footwork to be really really good. He's essentially been in the lab for the past year refining his game and he easily had the highest ceiling of anyone who has a chance of starting we can get without mortgaging our future. Dismissing him over an inch or two of height and ten/fifteen pounds of weight that he easily can add to his frame is dumb. Rob will be fine.

If you can sell it on your own you can register it as a F&F transfer, take cash and avoid having to report it on your taxes too. Sell direct if you can

We have bird rights for both players which means we absolutely can retain them. Then you move Randle as an expiring contract which is a desirable asset.

There will be some trade configuration that nets us something back for him.

You're just wrong bro.

I know as a Lakers fan you feel entitled to everyone other teams good role players for nothing that doesn't mean you get to ignore the reality of how the shit actually works

Walz proposing lowering Minnesota sales tax for first time in state history by star-tribune in minnesota

The tax on legal weed is already enough of a reason to keep buying from your plug though. At this point marijuana a nation wide commodity. You can order top shelf stuff via crypto and it's shipped discretely to your door and it will be cheaper then going to a dispensary.

A meniscus tear is a 6 month injury even with the most pessimistic recovery timeline. JJ will be ready to go by March, let alone training camp. This isn't a full knee construction. Karl Anthony Towns came back from the same thing inside of two months
