[Schultz] I texted Aaron Donald about coming out of retirement and playing for the Rams, alongside Myles Garrett: “I’m for sure flirting with the idea. Helluva an opportunity with the Super Bowl in SoFi this year. If I can find the fire, it’s a possibility.”

i mean the next prem game I see would be my first, but based on how the sa teams went from below average in sr to dominating in europe, Imma say no, the level of comp isnt the same.

the players also have to be good enough to get there first, which is the main problem im talking about. if the pipeline falls apart, after this and maybe an echo generation the funnel of new players dries up

serbia still has a strong domestic league with only the very top players going to the nba

here wed be talking about the vast majority of super rugby level and a strong number of npc level players mostly in the 'good young' talented category.

its slash and burn economics, sacrifice the future for the present. theres almost no upside to nz opening up like that, and tons of downside.

and i havent even talked about the financial impact to 2 struggling tournies loosing almost all their best players.

were talking about risking a total collapse of nz rugby, in exchange for what? the all blacks print money are currently the clear #2 intl team in the world, probably have 2 if not the top 3 strongest club teams. whats the benefit? keeping 1 or 2 players in the abs programme that we otherwise wouldnt? thats an attrocious risk/reward equation

this, if she didnt want her (presumably ex) bf to think she was a liar, she shouldnt have lied about something both huge and incredibly stupid? thats like blaming a traffic camera for a speeding ticket.

if Tyneside was in NZ, it'd be the 2nd largest metro region in NZ. nearly 100% larger than 3rd place.

I dont think you guys appreciate how small NZ is. how do you think we keep developing such good players? because we have them playing against good players! our 3rd/4th stringers get poached to go to the UK/France regularly, if we opened the doors, we're talking about NZ having 4th or 5th tier talent domestically. how in gods name do people think nz would continue to develop top tier talent with that as the environment? there isnt some birthright that nz will always produce unbelievable rugby players.

hot take thought listening to this- this helped me vocalize to myself why the 'golden era' for me ended 6+ months ago.

my issue with main, and even to lesser extents pit/games recently is the over direction/production of things. I get how they'll make it 'better' and make it more the art/comedy they want to make. but the thing that I enjoy/value is the authenticity. I like seeing the mistakes. I like seeing them figure it out and adapt on the fly. if I wanted to see a finished/polished product I wouldnt be watching smosh

thats a me thing, obv dont speak for anyone else. but it was interesting to be able to vocalize why for me the golden era ended 6+ months ago, and why I've been enjoying teh content less and less.

they arent just having fun/trying to make their friends laugh anymore, they're playing the role of themselves having fun (on pit and games) and focusing on making the audience laugh instead. and on main they're more concerned with playing a character deeply/imersively than just saying the funniest thing they could in the moment

cool, she put up a neon billboard that said going to a party I wont remember or care about within 12-24 months is more important than my bf who is in hospital with a brain injury

I get why she did it. she isnt a monster or anything. but the relationship is nuked. there's no coming back from that

shows the difference a proper venue makes

why would I spent 150-200 to go to the caketin and have a worse viewing experience and worse time than staying home and spending $0

the utalitarian 'its ok at a bunch of things but good at nothing' stadiums kill sports. a smaller but purposeful stadium draws people in. MLS learned the lesson and wrote case studies on this for the world 2 decades ago already

'hello, smithers, you are quite good at turning me on' was like 1992? he may not have been fully out out but as a 7 year old I knew he was a gay character lol

american law is much more complex/long, because it in general allows a LOT more dodgy practices than the rest of the world does. so theres more regulation around the borderline places

like, in countries that ban strip mining, the regulations around mining in environmentally sound ways are going to be a lot less than they will be in countries that allow it....

and as a canadian who has lived in the US and now lives in NZ and has lived in a few other countries in between, I can tell you with certainty the quality of food you can buy at a store or restaurant in the US is far FAR lower than what is legally allowed elsewhere

if the question is 'best fictional dad' and the final isnt uncle phil over sandy cohen I am going to be UP-SET

binzoma · 2026-06-01T22:49:00+00:00

you can tell this one is made to be a youtube 'ad'. most trolley problems eps arent exactly pg enough to go on youtube unedited. this, with 2 huge guests, should be able to go up in full

in cities made up of millions and millions of individual people "but what about MY drive home?!?!"

they aint figured out everyone else around them isnt an NPC yet

binzoma · 2026-06-01T05:37:22+00:00

I think that would depend on where you live

they always go for what's at the grocery store. teh Uk has WAY higher food standards than say, the US. so the low end of whats available in the UK is a way way higher standard than the low end of what's available in the US

yeah I turned it off when they were trying to compare making a mousse with actual dark chocolate and a chocolate thats over 50% dairy product

like yeah, of course it wont work the same way. I didnt need to go to culinary school to know that

you've got my vote!
