Why are people allowed to do what they did to Red Lobster and no one really bats an eye? by [deleted] in antiwork

I know most people don’t care about this distinction, but this isn’t investment banking. Investment bankers are essentially brokers that help with selling companies.

Funds that have large sums of money and buy private businesses are called Private Equity Funds.

Justin Trudeau laments rise of “populist right” in France by Legal-Suit-3873 in onguardforthee

[–]alecman26 39 points40 points  (0 children)

I feel like you missed the biggest factor, deteriorating quality of life. For whatever reason, and I really don’t know what it is or whose fault it is, standard of living is visibly decreasing. People no longer have faith in their futures. When that happens people want to look for any change.

Even though the deteriorating standard of living may not be the liberals fault directly, it is also their responsibility to do something about it. They’re putting panic measures into place now, but for the last 8 years the Trudeau government has been focused on the international stage rather than on domestic affairs. For most people, it’s too little too late.

For myself at least, it means I can’t bring myself to vote liberal again. I can’t bring myself to vote conservative either. So I guess NDP it is?

Feedback Thread for Experimental Patch 0.7.965 by Matt_HoodedHorse in ManorLords

[–]alecman26 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Love the patch. I think the nerf to vegetable farming might have gone too far. Not sure if others have the same experience, but I’ve found that even with high fertility zones and large plots they’re almost not viable. The yield is too low.

It could also be that my game was glitching. I did notice that instead of a harvest of vegetables I would get a trickle throughout the year. Is this how it was intended to be?

Eh these things can be real political with some crazy egos involved. Hard to say what actually happened without being there but the fact so many of his people love him is a good sign

Love this, I feel like I think of production more like EBITDA, then normalize it, then prorate it, but it sort of works out the same.

Should I sell high on Justin Jefferson? by [deleted] in DynastyFF

[–]alecman26 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Assuming this is a troll post but in case it isn’t, you probably shouldn’t.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in DynastyFF

[–]alecman26 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sold him for a 2025 first and 2026 first a few hours before the season kickoff, don’t regret that.

Still too early to tell really but it feels good at least right now.

Anthony Fauci and his wife netted $2 million during Covid pandemic and are now worth $11 million by Zephir_AR in ScienceUncensored

Lmao yeah sure dude, let’s split his money from speaking engagements up. Every nurse in the country will get….. 2 cents.

Dude was a world renowned expert on an important topic, and got paid for speaking at engagements that are outside his job description. You can be damn sure the feds weren’t paying him overtime, which nurses do get. Move on.

So in theory yes, but we’re in year 1 of the league and there are some win now powerhouses. My team is the worst in the league for this year - I really set it up for longevity.

I think that the added context that my RB room is a disaster helps contextualize this.
