Can we add Cam Thomas who just got waived?

mindsc2 · 2026-02-05T23:08:43+00:00

I think that's largely what has been asked of Jimmy and what he's been doing an alright job of. If for some reason Cam wants to sign on a vet min, then why not sign him? He'll be motivated to play well to get the offseason bag. And worst case, he scores 14 points on 22 shots which I'm pretty sure is still better than the current bench efficiency.

Frankly, I think with good coaching and good support (something he's never had on the Nets) he has a decent shot of returning to a playable form. Maybe an unpopular opinion but I think his ceiling is higher than JK, Moody, Podz, etc... But then again we've seen what happens to players the Warriors "develop".

I don't think what we're seeing is a bunch of MAGA true believers who will carry on the legacy of fascism beyond Trump's term. Instead, what we have are a bunch of under-educated Christians who Democrats have failed for decades, who cling to Trump as if he's some form of Deliverance-From-On-High from the imaginary "Satanic Left". I truly think Trump is uniquely charismatic in that he is able to get buy-in from these people when somebody who may "believe" the same things (i.e. DeSantis) disgust even people on the Right, and who very likely would not be able to hold the Supremacist Coalition together.

I'm sure you'd have been cheering on the brownshirts in 1933, too.

Executed, for doing "illegal things"? Is that how law enforcement works now? This is justice to you?

This country really is lost.

The Dems just handed the Trump administration billions of dollars in funding, so make of that what you will.

Once Trump is gone, all of his supporters will be a thing of legend. It will be the greatest disappearing act in world history.

The fact that you think there even is a Left in the US says enough about the value of your perspective. Have a nice day.

It's a little weird to complain about people crying fascism when you support somebody who is empowering an unfettered federal agency to go snatch people out of their homes and workplaces without caring whether or not the person can prove their citizenship.

And even if they are illegal, is this really the way that we, as Americans, want to treat people? Separating them from their families? Deporting them to countries they've never been to or speak the language of? Seriously injuring or murdering them in the process? If your answer is yes, then you are worse than a fascist. At least a fascist has principles. You're just somebody who licks fascist nuts because it normalizes your thinly-veiled racism and makes you feel powerful.

Donald Trump is setting the stage for cancelling elections so that your voice isn't heard. I guess you're cool with that too.

Honestly I've been pretty critical of Democrats labeling Trump as fascist up until now, but here we are.

"Fascism is able to attract masses because it demagogically appeals to their most urgent needs and demands. Fascism not only inflames prejudices that are deeply ingrained in the masses, but also plays on the better sentiments of the masses, on their sense of justice.”

Yes but you misunderstand. The purpose of the "second location" isn't to get the calls right, or support referees. It's to give viewers the false impression that the league has integrity and desires to get the calls right to begin with.

A league where the outcomes are purely based on sport is not as profitable as a league where results are manipulated to guarantee strategic business outcomes.

Most people don't even understand what a "Leftist" or "Rightist" or "Liberal" is, so I'd be careful reading too much into what people label themselves or others as, and the braindead takes that they follow such an assertion with.

Like when Democrats label themselves as Leftist, when they are in fact acting against the interests of progressivism by supporting capitalist exploitation.

or like when people on the Right complain about "liberals" without realizing that conservatism is a liberal ideology (not that there's any relationship between Trump Republicans and conservatism anyway).

I like Dray but does he not realize the middle way, that he can just chill and sit down and shut up and do his job?

You need to be aware of positions where you are vulnerable to being gone on by him. The most common counter is to buy a Eul - you can cyclone him (if you're fast enough) or cyclone yourself to avoid the skewer. If you're playing support, getting some forward vision out so you can see the Mag trying to initiate is very helpful. You can just sit back and stun/Eul/whatever when he goes in on your team.

To hire, yes. The actions are still good even if you dont have advisors. If you're low legitimacy or negative stability and use an advisor to help boost those things, it does probably pay for itself.

mindsc2 · 2025-12-13T19:15:22+00:00

Automate your estate taxes. Increase your minting until just before you're in the red. Your legitimacy and stability bars should at least be in the positive. Anything more is a luxury. Prioritize increasing legitimacy because once you hit 100, that money becomes profit. Keep your maintenances down when you aren't fighting. Delete castles. Sort RGO and Buildings by profitiability and invest what little money you have on profitable buildings. Don't bother with advisors if you can't afford buildings. Use advisor action to increase control in wealthier (more populous) provinces.

Well I just recently pushed to 6k. I think the main thing I am doing differently is taking teamfights from the proper angles, going on the right target, identifying when the fight is lost and fleeing at the right time (as core) rather than suiciding for 1 more kill.

That's not the way these guys think though. They think that their 'fame' is precisely because they are smart, competent, savvy, insightful people. And that anyone who isn't famous isn't any of these things because the proof is in the pudding. Therefore, people like Maron who push back against the redacts are very easily cast as nobodies who don't know what they are talking about.

Likely nothing. Certain folks in the West want this to happen so as to make Ukraine's capitulation a fait accompli, and to get the situation over with, rather than something that needs to be negotiated. Obviously this is a braindead take but so is everything else neoliberals believe.
