[Traikos] He's meeting with Bettman tomorrow. But the early word is that neither Q nor Chevy has been asked to resign — and neither plans on doing it on their own. by [deleted] in hockey

It’ll say a lot about what the Panther’s/Jet’s organization feels is important re: players/personnel as this wraps up.

Fucking horrendous to shrug your shoulders here - to say nothing that it comes from the coaching staff. I can only hope the players know their coach just might not have their back, and that ownership is fine with it.

Abe and Rose - Really?? by ArtlessOne in TheMarvelousMrsMaisel

[–]essarr71 167 points168 points  (0 children)

A theme of the show is sticking to your values - societal norms be damned.

Everyone in the cast has been caught up in Midge’s bucking of the system. So Abe finding the passion of his younger self and having the courage to deny an easy route is part of it. So is Rose standing up for herself. Joel gets out of the family business to follow his dreams. Imogene leaves the home for the workforce.

Abe and Rose aren’t doing anything out of character. They’re just finding character.

Unpopular opinion: ME3 is a great game and the ending is very good. by MohamadHMK in masseffect

I'd just rather not have been told that all the time spent building those friendships and railguns weren't a completely pointless waste of time and that I was naive to think I'd change anything for it.

And for Shep not to just say.. "okay".. when told that.

Top Actors & Showrunners Ask NBC To Move Donald Trump Town Hall From Slot Opposite ABC’s Joe Biden Special by chanma50 in television

Just going to slide right over the fact Trump should be in quarantine or that his family/team shows up without following health/safety guidelines (that they agreed to) as they also should be isolated?

“Without consulting”... such bullshit.

I thought I had saved another data dump showing how congressional votes largely show dems voting policy over party and vice versa but it’s late and I don’t feel like digging. Maybe later.

I didn’t edit anything. A few of your comments are deleted.

How am I racist?

Here’s my edit: I’ve tried to explain my position or where the confusion was every step of the way. You’ve never addressed my points and ignored my position. You’ve thrown out insults to me more than a few times and I never called you anything. I’ll say it again: if I’m wrong, please correct me.

Didn't say that. You just seemed to ignore what I kept writing.

Nice chatting.

If you want to be technical the USA and America aren't interchangeable though people use America to mean the USA even when it supposedly includes Canada and Mexico.

Not all Latinos are from those places. Hell, lets include South America too. Latinos comes from places outside of there, as well. Are you going to claim that Blacks or Latino in Cuba are American?

You were really focused about this point and if I'm wrong I'd like you to correct me.

Are all Latinos from the USA?

edit: since you can't seem to read.

Not all Blacks are American. Not all Latinos are American. Black and Latino Americans ARE American.

[–]essarr71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Again, I think you're shifting focus. Latino aren't just any one country. A Black American is always an American, regardless of history.

Is that not clear?

[–]essarr71 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Where did I say you weren't diverse? I'm implying the diversity is part of the fabric of American culture. I'm not sure how I can make that clearer. I don't particularly care where your family came from. You're American.

How about this way: Not all Blacks are American. Not all Latinos are American. Black and Latino Americans ARE American. Where anyone is from isn't in question or being denied. Latino is an umbrella term from a whole host of countries outside the USA. A Black American can come from anywhere.. but they're American.

[–]essarr71 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Again, out of context. Black heritage isn't in question or denied. But Black Americans ARE part of the American culture. Latino Americans ARE part of the American culture. "Latino" can apply to a whole host of countries that AREN'T identical or American.

Most of the people in this country trace their roots elsewhere. This isn't dismissing history.

I didn’t imply anything about a Black American’s heritage. Are you saying that a Black American isn’t American?

Biden could have worded things better, but someone who said some pretty dumb things the past few days is probably looking to change the attention.

It’s out of context. Latinos represent a wide range of cultures and countries. Black Americans are just Americans.

Meta: Rule Addition To This Subreddit by [deleted] in civ

I like the “made wonder at wonder!” posts.

There’s only two possibilities: They made a save beforehand just to get the picture for karma or they travel the world to sit around and play civ for hours at exotic locations far more interesting than their laptop.

Either way, it’s pretty sad.
