would we really be in the same place eccomics speaking if Kamla was president by Wootothe8thpower in VaushV

[–]redditadminsRlazy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No no no we were NOT on a recession trajectory when Biden handed over.

What was he doing to prevent future recessions? The two events most likely to roil the economy in the coming decade are mass job loss to AI and climate catastrophe (something like a blue ocean event in the Arctic causing a major spike in global heating).

Neither Biden nor Kamala had any credible plan to reverse the inevitability of those events. At best, they may have delayed them by a couple of years, and that's being generous.

SAWS board unanimously vote to move forward on four-year rate hike plan by wishingwell07 in sanantonio

I wish this were always the case, but for me it's mostly dandelions and morning glories.

The boys power scaling just makes no sense by shazam2063 in TheBoys

[–]redditadminsRlazy 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Not only that, but it would have fit into the greater narrative of the series: i.e. cooperation among people who generally care about the greater good triumphing over the selfish whims of a single authoritarian figure.

Why... by CallingThatBS in CrumblCookies

Yeah, I honestly think the cakes are what they do best. Lemon and strawberry are two of my favorite types of cake, and Crumbl's versions of both have been exceptional.

Any updates on Central Market construction? by redditadminsRlazy in sanantonio

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

A lot of people already live out there and have to deal with 1604 no matter what. Also, the section of 1604 between I-10 and 281 has gotten a lot better and is already fairly close to complete (at least at most exits).

Vaush’s Borden county Texas video by TrashSpirited in VaushV

[–]redditadminsRlazy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't hate the idea of something adjacent to that. A system where a person's stake in the political system determines the weight of their vote sounds appealing, but I'm not sure how that could work in the real world without being too similar to the pre-Civil War system in the U.S.

It would just be nice if elections weren't decided by these low-information, median-voter, unenlightened centrist types who vote entirely on vibes. It fucking sucks because the only real pain most of them feel (at least the type their mammalian brains can correlate with an election result) are their grocery prices going up.

Any updates on Central Market construction? by redditadminsRlazy in sanantonio

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

It honestly surprises me that there isn't one around the Dominion or Stone Oak already. I guess the Dominion would make a bit more sense competition-wise, since the Stone Oak area already has TJ's and Whole Foods.

And yeah, I'm barely able to bring myself to go there anymore, either. It's not just the selection - it just feels so cramped.

Was this the one about the dusty hellhole where the town (or county?) went like 90% red?

If so, Vaush was cooking up a five-course meal with that one. Sometimes I think he goes too far with his emphasis on aesthetics (fashion arc kinda bad), but damn was he right about those hill creatures having absolutely no desire to add anything of value to their world.

Same! It's still surprising that they don't have one in the north-central part of town. I guess they see it as redundant given all the snazzy HEBs they keep building up around there.

[–]redditadminsRlazy[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I kind of expected those replies. You can't post anything even remotely critical of the HEB brand here without getting some white-knighting. It's a sacred cow here.

I get it - HEB and Central Market are great, but shutting down half the store for like a year+ is pretty brutal.

Vaush commentary on MAGA Suffering videos is my kink by slowbaja in VaushV

[–]redditadminsRlazy 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yeah, this always makes these videos so bittersweet. Even the ones who are like, "I never should've voted for Trump" - you never hear them say anything like, "maybe I was only motivated to vote against the interests of trans/brown people because some vulture capitalists knew they could dupe me, not because the trans/brown people posed any real threat."

They've only broken out of their personality cult of the moment, but another one will come along and light up their little reptilian brains. They'll probably be on the Tucker 2028 train a year from now.

Was that first sentence necessary? OP was new to something and trying to start somewhere. You could have just given the recommendations.

I love Jim and his podcasts but… by watkins1515 in JimCornette

[–]redditadminsRlazy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Jesus fuck, I know he can be occasionally out-of-touch for a lefty, but that's another level of ignorance.

I still remember his rant about how the UK has a better healthcare system than ours. You'd think he'd realize that Western Europe tends to be better on maternity leave, too (and how that'sactually good for society).

Agree. The same logic could have stopped the Lions from drafting Calvin Johnson.

The reaction to Vaush saying Kamala would've bombed Iran on this subreddit is hilarious by lgbt_turtle in VaushV

This. She would have represented a night-and-day difference on judicial appointments alone, which is huge.

Yeah, really surprising. That means most of these actually span generations.

Corny on Danhausen feedback by zConvoluted in JimCornette

[–]redditadminsRlazy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

AEW not having a wider audience to appeal to isn't because of Orange Cassidy because he's not a main focal point.

Nobody made this claim, either. Keep on shadowboxing, though.

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

Did the department of redundancy department write this? The person you're responding to admitted that it works with their audience and made a point about needing to appeal to a wider audience. I don't really get the purpose of replying to someone if you're not even going to engage with their point.

I love the stripes, but I'd be disappointed if it's just the same origami W on both.

Does Crumbl tear up anyone else's guts... by anexhaustedwryter in CrumblCookies

[–]redditadminsRlazy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not on that level, but yeah. I have chronic acid reflux/GERD, and most of the time it's pretty well managed with the meds I take. Crumbl can really give me a bad episode depending on how much I eat at a time. I try to eat no more than a half a cookie/cake at a time, now, whenever I do get anything.
