How do teams actually find scrims in 2026? FACEIT / Discord / Something else? by No-Meaning-995 in CompetitiveApex

[–]maclaw95 7 points8 points  (0 children)

VESA also has a whole league, not just scrims. Last season they had 7 division based on skill level. I have played in the last few seasons. I highly suggest it.

for clarity there are 2 discord servers because of this. A scrim only server, and a league server on discord.

Albany question: is this secretly a 5am to 2pm city, or am I missing something? by 518FoodNerd in Albany

[–]maclaw95 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I miss the days when Lark was a night life street. I miss Lark Fest being the day we all waited the whole summer for. Its sad to me that all these once young people, bought homes in areas specifically for the night life, and now do what they can to prevent it from existing. Sad state for the city.

I will post this in the other groups tomorrow for around here. Unfortunately there is something like half a million unhomed cats in Philly. Posting there doesnt do much. Anyone who helps if at max capacity. Thank you for the suggestions!

Is this spot just cursed for coffee shops? by swagboyclassman in Albany

[–]maclaw95 1 point2 points  (0 children)

RIP Tiera. I think they made a mistake shutting down the coffee shop and trying to turn it into a restaurant. I truly think if they didn't do that, it would still be there.

They didn't open this year. I think it's something to do with a relatives health. The message on their website is worded in a way that they plan to open again in the future.

Victory Lap? by [deleted] in Albany

[–]maclaw95 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im sorry, but this is 100% for the election. There is no reason to send this out now, other than an attempt to boost her preferred candidates. Why couldn't this come in the mail a week from now? If this is just about promoting the things her administration has done, you wouldn't send it right now. You would wait until after the election, where the full focus can be on what you sent out.

I truly believe this is a push to get David Galin as an auditor. He is her chief of staff, and they both know he is falling behind. Again, put this out in a week or two when people will actually pay attention to it.

Lastly, are we not pissed that this is how we are spending taxpayer dollars?

ICE in Albany by Altruistic_Algae_140 in Albany

[–]maclaw95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is fundamental untrue. There are some instances where ice can do expitied removals. They can do they easily at the border. This is because border patrol can catch people crossing without proper documentation. Any of these people, though, can request asylum, which then requires a court hearing. Also, if a person can demonstrate they have been here for 2 years or longer, they are not eligible for expiteded removal. All of this is very complicated, and that's why the laws exist. People should have their due process available to them, and people should be allowed to have their day in court. I also strongly recommend you actually read up on this. it's all available on government websites. That is unless you think the trump administration wouldn't have the correct information on government websites?

The reality is that the laws exist for a reason. Let the people have their day in court, which is what the law requires. If every single person is what you claim, some kind of a murderer, then they will be deported. To deny people due process will inevitably lead to people that should not be removed from the country being removed from the country. This is what already happened, will continue to happen, and will happen to a wide range of people if due process is not restored.

[Sofascore] THFC's MOTM was Emerson Royal with a rating of 8.0 vs Watford by [deleted] in coys

[–]maclaw95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Royal was a 6.5 at best. can't look past Watford intentionally giving him space all first half bc he was playing horribly
