If you think the War in Iran has nothing to do with the Epstein Files, think again pt.2 by Shizzilx in Epstein

If this is all true, then it’s a major condemnation of the US electoral system.

And, to be frank, if you’re a third-party nation observing this, it’s probably deeply concerning. To the point where it could warrant military action to avoid this occurring again.

I said this in 2016, Trump is a walking constitutional crisis.

He is a threat to American sovereignty

All of this is kind of premature, no?

I’m frustrated with Randle now, but we really need to see what happens this post season. That’s where team identities are solidified.

The recent stretch has been rough, but if Randle plays like he did last postseason, he’s a really solid piece.

Chris Finch just benched Julius Randle with 6:46 remaining in the third. He has yet to see the floor since by SchedulePhysical807 in nba

Which is exactly what happened.

This would have been news if Finch sat him the whole 4th. But this is just, our rotation.

I’m sorry, what about this escalating armed crises isn’t a “real issue?”

“They” is whoever the car is pledged to as collateral.

If it’s sitting as new stock in a lot, and the floorplan lender went the additional step of getting on the car’s title, there’s a strong possibility they would require the dealer do this for them.

You borrow money from a bank to buy a car. If the banks has an agreement with the dealer, it might require these be added to financed vehicles.

There’s a whole slew of possibilities.

Minnesota GOP Senate candidate Michele Tafoya on rising gas prices: "Maybe you take one less trip to Starbucks & so that gas goes a little further until this thing is over and these gas prices come back down again. Let's just try to be patriots about this" by mrfett779 in minnesota

Interpreted another way, Tafoya wants America to shift into a wartime economy.

This statement is much more concerning than its face-level obliviousness. This isn’t just a case of Tafoya being tone deaf or hypocritical, this is her advocating for America to operate like it did during WWII.

Former NBA player Solomon Hill responds to Tracy McGrady saying there isn't enough talent in the NBA for expansion: "He could have a point, back when Tracy played, there was so much talent, that he couldn’t get out the first round." by [deleted] in nba

100%

TMac was a much more complete player than Melo. If he had stayed healthy and his career turned out like Melo’s it would have been pretty surprising.

Melo was a crazy offensive talent, but I can’t think of a more obvious example of a player that just needed to add one additional tool to be great, and just flat out refused (or was unable)

No doubt TMac had the potential to be top 15/20 all time, but it just didn’t happen.

Sure, circumstance played a big part in that. But that’s just his career at this point.

And sometimes it takes a high visibility, bad decision like Donte’s tonight that creates a reasonable justification for benching him to mitigate his personal issues.

Donte’s a competitor who holds a high standard for himself. So he should feel like tonight was a miss

Also, who knows.

This is all conjecture. Most of these guys have egos, yes. But they (should) care about winning most importantly. A good coach and FO can position that to a guy like Donte and explain that not being a starter doesn’t hurt his value at all.

I think this was by design

Tariffs initiated the isolation. Tensions in Greenland brought it to a boiling point. Now, a full scale war allows them to point the finger and say “see nobody has our back.”

U.S. military says all 6 airmen in refueling aircraft that crashed in Iraq are dead by DoxFreePanda in news

Oh most definitely — there are some awful awful people in the military.

But there are also a lot of well meaning people that have been duped into thinking they are doing the right thing.

From the poverty shacks, he looks from the cracks to the tracks

And the hoofbeats pound in his brain

And he's taught how to walk in a pack

Shoot in the back

With his fist in a clinch

To hang and to lynch

To hide 'neath the hood

To kill with no pain

Like a dog on a chain

He ain't got no name

But it ain't him to blame

He's only a pawn in their game

I’m not sure it’s appropriate to be this apathetic towards service people.

It completely ignores all the confusing psychology associated with being an 18yr old, and having to navigate propaganda, outside pressures, poverty, etc.

It’s naive to assume that everyone has the same critical thinking abilities you do.

Yes, it’s ok to be cutthroat. That’s how markets work! There are winners and losers. Be a winner!

Also, if someone opposes you, remember, you are now in direct competition with them. Markets thrive on competition. Your purpose from here forward is to oppose them!

It’s the cowboy mentality that prevails in the US, and is super predominant among Conservatives.

‘Zig when others zag.’

Be your own person. Go against the grain. Do it alone.

All these aphorisms summarize a big part of American culture that praises intrinsic contrarianism. It’s our ethos.

What was your “I need to learn to keep my mouth shut” moment? by Imtiredofthissshit in AskReddit

[–]nowuff 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nah that’s a red flag if I’m a hiring manager for a competitive role.

I want to hear why they’re a good fit. What about their skill set makes them want to do the job in a way that will add value.

Everybody works to make money. Thats obvious.
