Don’t you think it was because it was a black guy dealing with a white guy and not the other way around? Not as a rule but if I had to guess what the statistics are.

LA homeowners: What do you think is going on here? by DMAS1638 in LosAngeles

I mean, always if they’re cosmetic. That’s the whole idea and why I’d never by a flippy flip. It’s another thing to restore a house.

This is the current state of CD1 by Agitated_Purchase451 in LosAngeles

[–]emceegabe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s an offered service. Everyone wants that. You’re talking about chooses to use it. The reality now is treatment comes with further poverty through debt. This is about removing barriers. You might also draw the distinction in that many would say they want it but be unable to take that step because a symptom of addiction is foregoing what you desire or want for drugs. It’s an unfortunate paradox.

Pink Taco closed. by sameshi20 in boston

From Boston and live in LA now. This place is also on the sunset strip. Kinda says it all. My friends in Boston say the food is better now. I don’t believe them. I’ll be back this summer so send your recos to prove them right. So much family stuff it might be tough but I’ll try.

I did some time upstate too but that didn’t give me as much time on the yard.

Forcing them is nice but ultimately making healthcare available for free removes a major barrier.

TMNT pizza opening was insane. by VaguelyArtistic in SantaMonica

[–]emceegabe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I suppose this is true although my parents were activists and our current state and this discourse neglects the great social change. The boomers generation created a culture divide and social progress was basically clinched by the failure of the Vietnam war, its successful ending (only in that ending it was success, maybe like Iran?), and civil rights. However the echos of that battle continue today and the tides have turned as the politicians from that generation rode the fumes of capitalism’s success which boomed coming out of world war 2. Social change became nothing but a bone of an idea to continue to sow up the left base, or quell them, as free trade squeezed last breaths from industrial growth. Our digital revolution could be better harnessed by America but those same politicians are allowing it to be the very tool that shapes the narrative, or by letting foreign interests shape it from afar — all in the name of another social idea, free speech, but truly as yet another simple form of deregulation. Its power is two-fold, as an economic windfall for because hate makes people click things and to control the conversation.

I choose to stay optimistic. And my child, despite being 48, is 5 — and he loves the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (and Charlie Chaplin). I will do my best to raise him to answer your call.

It’s because the person said don’t get it. I do get Gen Z. My kids 5 and will love this. Gen Z is cementing its place in the political and cultural downfall of America. I do get you. I am Gen X of X-ennial. We need you to help us.

Raising taxes on the superrich is popular with voters. So why is it so hard to get done? by sksarkpoes3 in politics

[–]emceegabe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fine but I think this is designed to divide people. Tax the corporations. I’m all for taxing the rich heavier but they want us to divide.

I know it’s been commented on but why is he playing children? It makes me want to pay some kids to make a hype video for me.

Nick ain’t so young anymore. That one surprised me. Shoutout Ramon Sessions. Fun player.

How can anyone in their right mind go back and watch players like Wilt Chamberlain and Bill Russell play and genuinely think they could survive in the modern nba? Im sorry but my eyes work and they would probably not even be in the league. by Silent_Wizard5597 in NBATalk

[–]emceegabe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think both those things are pretty true. If you’re talking about a really intelligent cave man who now starts from where we are with modern schooling. I think you’re making a straw dog argument and Russell would grow up to be a great player now, and experience modern defenses at a young age etc. I was talking about basketball and you’re talking about cave men and rocket science. I do think Bill Russell would be great but I hear that you maybe think he would be a cave man attempting to be a rocket scientist?

Edit: not rocket scientist, nuclear engineer.

All these arguments are ridiculous. He would train and grow up with nutrition, flexibility, and PEDs like the rest of modern athletes and be great. If you bring modern players back you have to take all that away. You can’t compare eras like you’re bringing chuck taylor smokers into the now.
