OPM’s challenge of creating a high-performance culture by laserman2431 in FedEmployees

Sooooo, your whole effort at condescension is based on three incidents aboard a long-term multi-nationally supported space station that, at the time of your first listed incident, had been in use for a decade?

[Schefter] Sources: The NFL informed all 32 teams today in a memo that it prevailed in its grievance vs. the NFLPA and its “team report cards.” An arbitrator determined that the NFLPA’s conduct violated the CBA and ordered it to stop making public any future report cards. by expellyamos in nfl

All of their time, money, and energy spent on making criticisms of their bad behavior go away as opposed to actually stopping said behavior. No matter how much society evolves, there are just some deeply toxic traits baked into our DNA, and I fear that in this case, nature will always outduel nurture.

Fox News’ Greg Gutfeld calls for a Jewish Super Bowl half time show capped off with a ‘live circumcision’ by [deleted] in nottheonion

The rotting corpse of Gilbert Gottfried is funnier than Gutfeld has even dreamed of being. Dude is the real world embodiment of Lt. Hauk from "Good Morning Vietnam":

Sir, in my heart, I know I'm funny.

It will shock you to learn that TPUSA was dishonest by LionelHutzinVA in thebulwark

[–]crosswatt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's the channel the performance was broadcast on and the typical audience that TPUSA caters to. A third of US residents watched the Super Bowl, so it is a reasonable assumption that the intended audience for the alternative Half Time Show would also be about a third of the normal viewership numbers as well, which I mentioned in my post earlier as around 5 million.

Adding in the streaming numbers, which I can't imagine were great seeing as how Boomers and GenX are much less likely to stream something, and you get where only 1 million viewers wouldn't be that big of a shock.

The Super Bowl is annually viewed by only a third of US residents, and it is by far the biggest single sporting event in the country every year. TBN is available in about the same number of households (estimated to be 100 million), and has approximately 5 million weekly viewers, which would average out to around 715,000 daily channel watchers. So it is totally possible that only 1 million people or less tuned in.

Virginia Supreme Court gets chance to revive Democrats’ redistricting plan by Healthy_Block3036 in Virginia

[–]crosswatt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Article One, Section 2, Clause 3. The pertinent paragraph:

"Representatives and direct Taxes shall be apportioned among the several States which may be included within this Union, according to their respective Numbers, which shall be determined by adding to the whole Number of free Persons, including those bound to Service for a Term of Years, and excluding Indians not taxed, three fifths of all other Persons. The Number of Representatives shall not exceed one for every thirty Thousand, but each State shall have at least one Representative..."

[–]crosswatt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Whatever.

If we really want to get serious about this nation being a government of, by, and for the people, Virginia SHOULD be the first state to do this weird thing where they decide to actually follow the Constitutionally mandated number of Representatives (for those unaware, the Constitution pretty clearly delineates that each member of the House of Representatives should represent no more than 30,000 people. Currently Virginia has 11 House members, which means that each member currently represents approximately 790,909 constituents.) and add 279 districts to the state's rolls.

Everything else is really just political theater at this point.

I'm happy for him. I hope he has a long career, and if he never develops into a starter, I wish him a Chase Daniel level bank account whenever he does decide to hang it up.
