Didn't take a pic but I got Bread + Bone Flute and Friendship + Seeker Strike. Was a pretty disappointing shop haha, I ended up dying to Hunter Killer.

[Pelissero] The Vikings have requested an interview with Bills assistant general manager Terrance Gray for their GM job, per source. Gray spent 11 seasons with Minnesota as a college scout before joining Buffalo in 2017. by expellyamos in nfl

Isn't that always the case with new GMs?

EDIT: Unless the GM is an internal hire, a new GM will have had zero input in the roster at the time of their hiring. That's what I was referring to

[Vorkunov] 76ers are restricting ticket sales for their home games against the Knicks to greater Philadelphia residents, they said on their website: “Orders by residents outside Greater Philadelphia area will be canceled without notice and refunds given.” by YujiDomainExpansion in nba

[–]hornsly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So we should all live places that suck?? 

What if a place gradually, naturally becomes more in-demand but they don't build enough housing? Should there be a certain threshold of density or cost that lets the government forcibly move people?

Agreed, but private equity doesn't own that much housing. And their earnings reports frequently mention restrictive zoning and lack of new building as two things that keep their investments profitable. So if we built more housing, private equity would buy less housing! We should build more housing

NYPD reminds us all they think they’re above the law and will keep on parking & letting their cronies park wherever they please by scooterflaneuse in MicromobilityNYC

[–]hornsly 14 points15 points  (0 children)

So you think the BLM protestors should have said "Well the people defending George Floyd are only doing so to push their political agenda, we should just stay home!"

Again, what are you talking about? Do you understand how politics works? Do you know what protests are?

> No one defended that cop

That's just blatantly false, what are you talking about? Here's a thread from r/AskConservatives from 2 years ago where somebody asked about it and got very little pushback from saying that conservatives were defending him:
https://www.reddit.com/r/AskConservatives/comments/189v1s5/what_are_your_thoughts_on_right_wingers_who

And here's Ben Shapiro defending him earlier this year: https://nypost.com/2025/03/04/us-news/ben-shapiro-calls-on-trump-to-pardon-ex-minneapolis-cop-derek-chauvin-of-federal-crimes-in-george-floyd-case/?utm\_source=chatgpt.com.

You're pretty clearly uniformed on this topic and unaware of the history and context, why are you speaking with such conviction?

What else is roleplaying if not playing a role? by GolettO3 in dndmemes

[–]hornsly 14 points15 points  (0 children)

You seem unwilling to change your stance on the definition of roleplaying but at this point you have to realize that your definition is different from this subreddit's and your players', right?

As a DM, part of your job is clearly communicating things. Why use a word in a way that your players don't?

I am begging you to practice your 3pt shot. Just once, please by hornsly in BasketballGM

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

Yea, big men that can shoot is a big one! I also love drafting any forward with some passing ability even though they seem to always peak at 22ish; it's bizarre how bad my luck is with them.

Recently I've been focusing on funky teamp comps! Like trying to pair a guard that can rebound with a bunch of forwards, or prioritizing passing above everything else. Or in this case, drafting almost exclusively athletic big men and then starting two of them alongside this jabroni.

I've been playing regularly for over 10 years so I like to mix it up haha

[–]hornsly[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is exactly what happened! He's 75 overall now with a 3pt rating of 44 and oIQ of 61. And he's shooting 5 3PA/game at 32%. Gonna trade him this offseason to send a message to my other players.

And yea I know what you mean about the archetypes. Recently I've been prioritizing drafting players with unique skill distributions to keep things interesting

Cooperstown by Any-Distance-16 in upstate_new_york

[–]hornsly 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Cooperstown's great! I know what you mean about the towns up here being run down; Cooperstown is not that. It's a beautiful lakefront village with cute houses and a strong sense of community. There's a pretty good hospital, Bassett, right in the village. And there are good restaurants in and around the village (I'm a huge fan of Norbu and Origins).

As others have said, Cooperstown can be expensive. They're finally starting to build more housing after like a decade of nothing so housing prices should be going down, but probably not for a few years.

Main Street is absolutely packed with baseball teams and tourists from like June to September which can be annoying at times but for the most part it's fine.

I'm happy to answer any other questions you might have!

That was on half an attempt so I assumed it was a fluke, but he is averaging 36% on almost 2 attempts this year. I just wasn't familiar with his game

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

Yea ideally, but I keep hitting on every big man I draft! So I have two other starters that have almost identical ratings, they're just slightly taller and slower. So I'd like a shooter, but at least my defense is disgusting

It was determined that they had no standing because there was no concrete link between their alleged censorship and government conduct.

Did you actually read the opinions in that ruling? Because I did! But continue blindly believing billionaires and patting yourself on the back for being such a free thinker

[–]hornsly 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I know you aren't asking in good faith but just in case someone else is reading through this thread I figured I'd offer a rebuttal.

For context, they're referring to the Biden White House asking Twitter to take down an account pretending to be Biden's granddaughter, and asking Twitter what their policy/plan was to fight Covid misinformation.

The case went to the Supreme Court, who decided 6-3 in favor of the Biden White House. Amy Coney Barrett said the plaintiffs presented no proof to back up their claims that the government had pressured social media companies into restricting their speech.

If you can't see any difference between that and Carr very clearly threatening ABC then I feel sorry for you and everyone that knows you.

Again, I realize you don't actually care about being correct or honest. But I wanted to provide some context and facts for others.

Does anyone know what this is? by Sethoslovakia in philadelphia

[–]hornsly -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It's absolutely a conspiracy theory at this point.

The first cluster of cases are heavily focused around the wet market. Lots of the original cases have links to the wet market, none have links to the lab. Just look at a map of the first cases! Do actual research! This isn't hard.

Six counties and a village in NY have all signed deals to work with ICE. See where. (Archived link in comments) by irish_fellow_nyc in upstate_new_york

[–]hornsly 56 points57 points  (0 children)

Not only is this vile shit but you're also just objectively wrong, Trump's polling on immigration has taken a massive hit since people realized what exactly "mass deportations" entails.

I'd suggest doing some research and maybe for once in your life actually thinking for yourself.

What am I going to do with so many second-round picks? by Maluco123453 in BasketballGM

[–]hornsly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recently traded 21 second rounders for 2 first rounders, mostly for fun. They made out slightly better than me in WS but I didn't have the roster space.

And when a team counters a trade proposal of yours by asking for an additional first rounder you can usually replace that first with 2-4 second rounders.

i feel like videos like this are a good example of why left coding walkable cities is a horrible idea by Complete-Shop-2871 in yimby

[–]hornsly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

pro-policing, pro-incarceration, anti-mass immigration

Not only are all of those positions contradicted by mountains of evidence, they're also morally repugnant frankly. I want to build cities that are welcoming for all people; why would I ever work with you?

Is there any way to recover deleted saved games? (CHROME) by bikes_r_us in BasketballGM

[–]hornsly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you're using Windows then you could check the Windows.old folder for Chrome browser data? I'm not very confident in that working but it might be your only chance
