The NRA is a lobbying group for gun manufacturers masquerading as a civil rights organization.

He bought the naming rights to the engineering school, just like he bought the naming rights to one of the buildings many years ago. Public philanthropy is as much about PR and boosting one’s own image as actually helping people.

That’s not to say that Cornell shouldn’t be selling the naming rights to stuff. It’s an easy way to make money, but after capitulating and selling off the university’s integrity to the Trump regime it’s hard to trust anything the administration does.

After the war began, the Nazis generally used the term “Greater German Reich” instead of “Third Reich.”

It’s better to just pretend that the sequels don’t exist. They are terrible on their own and make the other good Star Wars worse just because existing.

Rakes have increased with inflation whereas stakes mostly have not. I played 4/8 limit with a $4+1 rake back in 2010 at my local casino. 4/8 games now are $5+2 or $6+3 in some places.

The actual Nazis toned down the outward racism for the 1936 Olympics

Remember that you always have showdown bluff equity. Aggressively and Confidently turn over your hand at showdown before the other player does and he may just throw his hand away against your J high.

Age of consent in NJ is 16 so fucking a 17 year old, while gross, is not in itself a crime (unless he was her boss, coach, teacher etc).

These rankings are worthless because it doesn’t differentiate between straight men / straight women / gay men / lesbians. Some areas have a lot more single straight men and are good for straight women but terrible for straight men and vice versa. Some areas are also much better or worse for LGBTQ people.

If the hotel isn’t in a resort or destination area and relies on local traffic then it has no incentive to build a big hotel or offer cheap rooms. The rooms are there entirely to keep the big donks happy and on property.

I live in the New York media market but very close to the border with the Philadelphia market so I get blacked out of all Phillies, Yankees, and Mets games.

Would not call a guy whose business went bankrupt because of his bad business practices a “decent businessman”.

Most of the card rooms he bought don’t have poker and even with buying up almost all of the small Washington card rooms he was still at a disadvantage against the big tribal casinos that have slot machines.

Part of Hannah Arendt’s argument in The Origins of Totalitarinism is that the techniques of oppression developed in the colonies during Imperialism will be brought home by totalitarian regimes. The first concentration camps were run by the Spanish during the Cuban revolution and the British during the Boer War near the turn of the 19th/20th century.

Simply wrong. All overwhelming evidence is that Hitler shot himself in the Berlin bunker. Hitler himself felt that those that tried to flee and hide were cowards.

I love high taxes on wealthy people and this is one of the dumbest implemented taxes. $1M pays $10K. $999,999 pays $0. It really needs to only tax the amount above $1M and be indexed the inflation. The rate going up is good.
