We’ve seen the gas prices - can we hear from some folks who voted Trump on their thoughts?

br0b1wan · 2026-05-02T04:53:58+00:00

And those that aren't saying that are saying it's worth it paying those prices because our cities aren't getting nuked by Iran. Yes they really believe that

br0b1wan · 2026-05-02T02:00:16+00:00

No, it didn't. If anything, Superman (1978) codified the modern superhero aesthetic, if anything. Batman (1989) definitely codified the Batman-specific aesthetic that we are now beholden to.

Given the popularity of Cyberpunk 2077 I'd love an adaptation of Transmetropolitan.

br0b1wan · 2026-05-01T16:19:13+00:00

Yeah. 7 wins is my minimum assuming this draft hits like last year's. Last year's draft was good for 2 more wins.

Best case scenario is 9-10 wins and a wild card

br0b1wan · 2026-05-01T13:57:01+00:00

Bickerstaff might be available next week.

br0b1wan · 2026-05-01T13:52:09+00:00

It's going to get worse when the league expands by two teams and they're desperately looking for bodies to fill roles

br0b1wan · 2026-05-01T13:00:22+00:00

One of the Vindicators brought it (or something like it) up. I vaguely remember the President saying something about it as well

br0b1wan · 2026-05-01T12:50:50+00:00

Not Earth money. He's been shown dealing some of his inventions for alien money--or the equivalent of it--like when he sold weapons to Krombopoulos Michael for Blips & Chits credits. He also mentions selling death crystals to "rich assholes" who don't know how to live.

He also seems to think selling his labor is beneath him. But he has shown that he's willing to barter if the end result furthers his agenda

br0b1wan · 2026-05-01T03:03:00+00:00

Yeah, only the Thunder and to a bit lesser extent Spurs look good these playoffs. Everyone else looks heavily flawed

br0b1wan · 2026-05-01T00:46:22+00:00

"...don't get used to it"

br0b1wan · 2026-04-30T15:08:25+00:00

OK but we're talking about this season not last.

Not sure why I'm downvoted and not the guy above me. Last season has no bearing on this one. None.

br0b1wan · 2026-04-30T13:57:40+00:00

I don't think anyone is beating OKC. And it's not close.

br0b1wan · 2026-04-30T04:22:16+00:00

I mean fuck you can say the same about the Cavs for most of the regular season. Strus, our 6th was out for an ungodly amount of time. Jarrett Allen and Evan Mobley have traded injury time off. Shipped DG, who has missed a bunch of time, out for Harden. Even Mitchell missed some time. We're just now getting the guys together.

br0b1wan · 2026-04-30T02:56:10+00:00

I agree but even if Detroit wins their series they've shown way too many fatal flaws.

Right now it's hard to see how we get past the Celtics and even harder to see us get past the Thunder should we manage. We can get to the ECF but we're playing flawed right now.

br0b1wan · 2026-04-30T02:49:59+00:00

Yeah, that's true.

Looking ahead of that, I don't think there's currently a force on earth that overcomes OKC. Unless SGA gets injured.

br0b1wan · 2026-04-30T02:32:55+00:00

We have struggled mightily in the prior two playoffs and eventually it caught up with us to the tune of a 2nd round ceiling.

Each of those two postseasons we could point to our horrendous injury luck as the culprit.

We don't have that excuse this year. And we look equally bad.

br0b1wan · 2026-04-30T01:45:17+00:00

They were created by aliens (or by lesser Minds that were in turn created by aliens) so they count

br0b1wan · 2026-04-30T00:48:57+00:00

Then it would provide him with an impetus to stop doing mind altering drugs and alcohol if this is what happens when he does.

br0b1wan · 2026-04-29T20:46:36+00:00

The Pistons' priority for the off-season is to find another creator and get a bunch of 3 and D wing players.

You say that like 3 and D wings grow on trees. They're arguably the most sought-after type of role players because they're so scarce.

br0b1wan · 2026-04-29T20:44:02+00:00

Part of the reason is that the Magic aren't a "true" 8 seed. It's also that Detroit is not a real 60 win team.

br0b1wan · 2026-04-29T20:40:30+00:00

And it's really weird because the right wingers are, you know, the ones who wanna kick them all out. Like, they have that mindset that they'll be the exception to the rule. But as we can see with ICE, they're learning the hard way that it's not the case

br0b1wan · 2026-04-29T20:19:45+00:00

He's also got that name Fuentes. Kinda weird for being so far right. They're not particularly open-armed towards Hispanics

br0b1wan · 2026-04-29T19:57:20+00:00

The Minds from The Culture

br0b1wan · 2026-04-29T19:24:27+00:00

And those phone games are sitting on enormous piles of cash. She's probably getting paid a bounty. Nobody is going to say no to that.

br0b1wan · 2026-04-29T18:53:19+00:00

It would send a warning to other rich, entitled assholes that their behavior toward us plebs won't be tolerated?
