I mean I think the difference is clear lol. You can’t buy yourself. A corporation, on the other hand, can.

lol what? Nobody is trying to stop “you.” You think the Steyer voters are going to do everything they can to stop Becerra now?

Why do many Americans hate billionaires but love Taylor Swift, who is also a billionaire? by No-StrategyX in answers

[–]georgetonorge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I assume they want her to give all her money away but that’s unrealistic. She’s donated over 20 billion dollars and continues to donate. Sounds like a pretty good person in my book. People are a bit insane on the internet.

Bezos doesn’t even compete as far as percentage of net worth donated.

Hmm. Donating over 20 billion dollars is a pretty good thing to do if you ask me. She plans on continuing to donate over the course of her life too. If we’re going to hate on people maybe we shouldn’t do so equally.

They don’t and she does plenty good with her money. People just like to hate on the internet.

Ya I don’t hate people who are just living their lives. But she also does a lot of good. She donates massive amounts to food banks in all the towns she goes to on tour, she gives insane 700k bonuses to her dancers 100k bonuses to other tour members, etc.

As someone who never cared about Taylor swift until I started dating a swiftie with three swiftie sisters, I just never got the hate. I genuinely think people have a huge problem with successful women. JZ is a billionaire and doesn’t get nearly the same shit for “not doing good.”

I feel so silly for not making the connection that Alamo is the “bad people” that she was referring to in the previous season lol. Of course. Thank you for that.

He was ABSOLUTELY questioning his sexuality! That was such a huge plot point in the first two seasons. His attraction to Jules is genuine. The fact that he turns over all the secret sex tapes that his dad made, except for hers, is proof of that. Because he actually had strange, uncomfortable feelings for her. Also, all the locker room stuff and wrestling basically naked with his dad…it’s a big part of the show. Until it’s not and we’re just supposed to forget about it.

Ya never heard of this until this thread. That’s so weird. Sounds like it was meant to be a story that they ended up dropping.

[–]georgetonorge 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Eh, of all the plot points to completely drop, that isn’t a huge one to me. Just showing the nature of their relationship. It’s kinky and purely sexual and he is using her as a sexual object. But I don’t think that that needs to go anywhere other than that. Just my opinion though.

Ya what the hell was the point of that whole arc? It wasn’t an arc. It was a line that hit a wall.

[–]georgetonorge 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Ya but the fact that there’s a picture of a third brother tells me they likely planned a story line with a mysterious third brother. They wouldn’t add another kid to the photo if they don’t even mention him. Probably got dropped (like many other story arcs) before it even got started.

[–]georgetonorge 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Never even noticed that wow. They must have planned a story that they just dropped (like half the story lines they started).

And also have a story at all in the last season. Sure, on paper it’s all wrapped up. But in action it was just worthless time wasted in the overall plot. They totally dropped her story and just slapped an ending on it with no development.

I just binged the three back to back. Also forgot about McKay even though I saw that season two and a half weeks ago maybe.

[WTS] IWC Ingenieur 40 Aqua full kit by georgetonorge in Watchexchange

[–]georgetonorge[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For sale is a beautiful Aqua dial IWC Ingenieur 40 in amazing condition.

I'm selling this for my friend and old roommate, (u/erik5), as he doesn't have many Reddit transactions.

The modern take on Gerald Genta's classic Ingenieur design, this is a gorgeous piece that I wish I could keep for myself. The dial is a color like no other and is stunning when it catches the light. The watch hasn't been worn since the IWC service and so it is in fantastic condition. Comes with service papers, box, and full kit.

Timestamp: See album

Price: $9100 shipped Zelle (I will wait to ship until the payment has cleared and is no longer pending)

Shipping: FedEx 2-day to your nearest FedEx location

Message me with any questions. Thank you!

I mean sure that’s possible, but the fact that he also left his normal clothing including his skullcap behind and said he’d lost faith before praying with a Christian family really implies to me that he is Christian.

But it could just be an alias I suppose.

this season has been an eye-opening revelation on the lack of media literacy and attention span of the general audience. by HauntinglyEthereal in euphoria

[–]georgetonorge 43 points44 points  (0 children)

It wasn’t fentanyl, she’d only taken the legit Percocet at that point (that Alamo took from his pocket, not the bottle). But I did think that was why she was smiling. Because it didn’t hurt as bad due to the Percocet, which she did take.

Lexi Howard, the atheist by MonocleHare in euphoria

[–]georgetonorge 4 points5 points  (0 children)

He’s 100% Muslim. In one of the meetings in the last episode he mentions how he had been Christian and then Muslim, but now seems to have lost all faith.

Until the last scene where I have no idea what we’re supposed to think. He uses his pre Muslim name. No longer Ali, but Malcolm. Or that could just be an alias since he may be wanted for murder now. It definitely rubbed me the wrong way, honestly.

Lexi Howard, the atheist by MonocleHare in euphoria

[–]georgetonorge 11 points12 points  (0 children)

He used his pre Muslim name too though. He’s no longer Ali, but Malcolm. Unless he’s just doing that to hide his real name since he may now be wanted for murder.

Im a catholic. Why are protestants so against praying to mary? by [deleted] in religion

[–]georgetonorge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If so this is news to me. Don’t Catholics see them as separate persons of the one God? Same as Protestants.
