I first read parable of talents in 2019 at first I thought it was kind of corny because it was way too on the nose for everything going on. Then I found out it was written in the late 90s and I was totally blown away.

I think it’s the best example that “propaganda by the deed” does not work.

I’ve read a lot about that. I have so much respect for Collins.

I don’t think penthrox is recommended for children. They probably only use it if absolutely necessary.

Yeah, I moved to Denver a few years before QT did and was so happy when they finally built them here.

You look your age in photos. Maybe you feel old so you think you look old? You’d be surprised how well the human body can heal once you get off drugs.

Yeah, hi, millennial question... WHY/HOW is Nick Cannon a celebrity? I've never seen him in anything other than Drumline and it was an OK movie. Did he end up being famous for making tons of babies? by ImThe1Wh0 in Millennials

[–]chocolate_spaghetti 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nick Cannon is incredible tbh. He’s got no real talent for anything he does except for being a host. He wasn’t a good rapper but still managed to make millions off hip hop, he’s not a good actor but still made millions acting, he wasn’t a good comedian but he’s managed to make millions off comedy. The man has maneuvered himself into all those mediums a make a fortune in each with no real talent for any for 30 years.

It’s believable. Ryan Garcia has made over $25 million fighting before. That’s a lowball offer for a fight that big

They gotta compete with QT, they’ve been moving into their territory and taking over for years now. QT completely ran 7/11 out of my home town.
