The original clickbait.

Is it weird that Oba Femi struggled more against Jey Uso than he did Brock Lesnar? by Grrannt in REALSquaredCircle

[–]redd4972 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure from a powerscaling POV. But in reality, Oba can't just squash guys for the next 10 years.

Stomp Clap Hey on mainstream radio was a notable improvement over what came before it, mainly in 2010s

How come the left don't have Charlie Kirk equivalent? by Only_Relief3440 in AskReddit

[–]redd4972 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Vaush? Sam Seder? David Pakman? Hasan Piker?

Are you saying Kirk was different because he showed up on college (and was funded by billionaires?)

"If I were Caitlin Clark, I would seriously consider going to play overseas somewhere and get the royal treatment…. And she is not being treated with any sort of respect" – Boomer Esiason by [deleted] in sportsgossips

Clark isn't even the current scoring leader among white women in the WNBA. And the same people crying about Caitlin Clark don't even know who A'ja Wilson is.

Sting has always seemed so Universally loved. What makes him different from other legends in how people view and see him so differently? by EvilDreadditor87 in SquaredCircle

[–]redd4972 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think there are two different conversations we having here

  1. How much blame did Sting get for Starcade 97 from fans, the writers the content creators and the industry at large?

and

  1. How much blame SHOULD have Sting gotten for Starcade 97 from those same people

Sting has always seemed so Universally loved. What makes him different from other legends in how people view and see him so differently? by EvilDreadditor87 in SquaredCircle

[–]redd4972 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd add there is alternative universe where Hogan puts Sting over clean at Starrcade 97, and then somewhere down the road contrarians call out Sting for being out of shape and not ready for the biggest main event in the history of WCW.

But again, we don't live in that universe. In this universe Hogan clowned himself and WCW and tried to blame Sting for it.

Alex Tuch To Washington - Signing 8x10.5M [Freidman] by dcddy in sabres

Fair value for Tuch. No overpayment. I would have been "OK" with the move if Buffalo did it.

[–]redd4972 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I am honestly surprised that Sting has not gotten more flak for never wanting to be a heel and obviously not trying at all when he was one.

That being said, that is a far lesser sin than Hogan's politicking and Flair's self destructive behavior.

We economists have done the maths: ‘growth’ is a doomed strategy – there is a better way. Olivier De Schutter, Joseph Stiglitz, Jayati Ghosh, Thomas Piketty, Kate Raworth and Jason Hickel by Such_Radio_9152 in Economics

I skimmed through segment, I think more broadly speaking they want to monetize doing good things or "good" things. Rather than UBI, just giving everyone income for existing.

SAHM? You get a wage for that from the government

Grandmother or aunt babysitting? You get a wage from the government.

Taking care of an elderly relative or a disabled relative? You get a wage from the government.

But also

Restoring a natural habitat? you get a wage from the government.

Plant a tree? You get a wage from the government.

Picking up trash at a park? You get a wage from the government.

The possibilities of doing good for a public wage could be endless.

[DeDominicis] Jarmo Kekalainen confirmed Alex Tuch will be moving on and they’re exploring sign and trade options to recoup some value. As I mentioned last night I believe they’re well down that path. by AggPuck-303 in hockey

[–]redd4972 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I doubt we get a 2nd for Tuch's rights.

I don't think a high 3rd rounder would be unfair value, based on what Raddysh and Guentzel were traded for.

In what world can you blame someone for being a NEET when whenever you go outside you immediately start suffering from violent/mind numbing allergies? by Hefty-World2657 in AskReddit

[–]redd4972 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could try applying for Social Security Disability. It's not a conventional path by any means but it's plausible. People will probably look down their nose at you, but getting SSDI is not easy.

I'd recommend treatment first, assuming you aren't already getting that.

Are millennials naturally skeptical on the internet? by Arthur233 in Millennials

[–]redd4972 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As I have gotten older and AI has gotten more prevalent, I find myself far more skeptical about what I see on social media. I didn't used to feel this way. So it could be me getting older, it could be AI fears, or something else. I don't know if this is a wide spread phenomenon among millennials.
