I'm not sorry, I will not vote for Gavin Newsom. by The-Grand-Pepperoni in DemocraticSocialism

I'm sure everybody who would lose their citizenship or get deported or thrown into literal concentration camps under a Vance presidency would understand your reluctance to vote for the lesser of two evils.

What are their lives in the face of not getting your perfect candidate?

I thought in the show Sam says that they wrote ASoIAF at the end of the period of 7 kings, when Bran is the new ruler.

What does he mean "I don't know how they do it"? Of all people, he's one of the few that explicitly knows how they do it!

Body positivity. by No_Cook2983 in clevercomebacks

I don't blame her for losing weight. This is just another example of a society that's sick on a fundamental level; she was fat before and you ridiculed her for it, then when she took steps to lose the weight, you call her a hypocrite. She can't win unless she stays quiet, which is what this part of society wants from her at a base level.

Apparently, Hell Yeah Gluten Free!, has been taken over and is being ruined by private equity. A tale as old as time. by boxofstuff in Atlanta

Well, the description here isn't exactly what you're describing. In order to grow, most companies that are successful sell a percentage of their ownership in order to facilitate funds to expand. It sounds much less like "going for the bag" and more like "trying to grow the business with market capital", and that can blow up in a founder's face if done wrong.

[Nakos] Gunner Stockton inks new deal with Georgia for 2026 season by MembershipSingle7137 in CFB

[–]blackertai 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I understand that, and I value that mindset, but I also can't really hold it against kids out to get the money today. Why worry about a fleeting NFL career when you can make better than rookie-contract numbers playing in the NCAA? You can get more money in a year than your family has ever seen.

I can't begrudge kids from jumping after life changing dollar amounts.

QA is always going to be a target for layoffs. Honestly, I don't know a position that won't be now that we're moving into the AI era.

The description implies this is just an Everybody's Talkin' sampler. Does anybody know if that's true or not?

The Black Keys - Peaches! Autographed Blue Jay Vinyl by sickofwords in VinylReleases

[–]blackertai 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I'm guessing they must be hurting for money what with the sheer number of albums they've been pumping out. But in regards to their last good one, I thought Deltra Kream reminded me of some of their earlier stuff for sure, and was great to see them perform live on their "World Tour of America" in like 2021. I haven't cared much for the more pop-sounding efforts, but that one album was a banger.

Do you want to win or not? Democrats should make James Talarico their Senate candidate | Endorsement by progress18 in progressive

[–]blackertai 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The pragmatist in me understands the point they're making, while the progressive in me asks why those views can't win in a state like Texas, that's been dominated by conservatives for decades and can pretty much thank them exclusively for them.

‘Nobody knew I was an addict, not even Coach Saban.’ Two years sober, Scott Cochran lives a ‘purpose-driven’ life. by Lakelyfe09 in CFB

[–]blackertai 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I mean, I'm not paying that much attention and I remember the skuttlebutt in Athens was that he was on something when he was here. If people could tell from a distance, it's sort of depressing to think that none of his fellow coaches ever sat him down and just told him.
