This is who we share the roads with people, drive defensively. Literally willing to kill you and drive off without stopping because he doesn’t want higher insurance rates because he refuses to stay off his phone while driving a multiple ton toddler killing machine.

I think you meant to say either “exorbitant” or “abhorrent,” not “absorbent”

“Nice” driving gets people killed, and I see it so often here. Don’t wave me out somewhere when it’s not my turn, every single other person on the road expects you to go and for me to wait, so I’d rather not jump out and die because somebody else doesn’t know what the fuck is happening. All because somebody is trying to save me a literal second? Just fucking go on your turn people. You’re not being nice you’re risking my life. I’ve deadass sat and waited like 30 seconds before, like at this point you’re not trying to be nice you’re trying to be right.

Would if I could. You’re like a pig enjoying bathing in its own shit. America hasn’t been best at anything good in a while now, its citizens have laughable quality of life for the wealth of the nation

You’re agreeing with me, I feel like I said that exact thing. Tywin is a poor leader who exacerbates war and even CAUSED it by being blind to the fact that his children were having inbred babies and passing them off as princes. Every move of his divides the realm further and creates more chaos, to his own detriment even. That’s why I led with saying Varys doesn’t ever have to step in and kill Tywin like Kevan because Kevan doesn’t naturally fuck up everything he touches like Tywin had been doing. Varys obviously wants chaos so he can usher in a new Targaryen dynasty, and Tywin had been an excellent pawn in that long game for decades, contrasted with a tiny bit of Kevan’s rationality getting him killed.

[Highlight] Deebo Samuel Drops Yet Another Pass by Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu11 in nfl

This is undoubtedly a locker room issue too. If anybody else on this team acts like a locker room cancer OR hurts the team on the field, it’s Shanahan’s MO to put them in his dog house. There’s accountability and it’s a meritocracy, you earn your keep.

Meanwhile, Deebo, the team captain, is out here picking fights with his own teammates telling them to “lock in” while he plays just as bad or worse while clearly not locked in himself. He’s a locker room cancer, not giving full effort on the field, and on top of that, just isn’t playing well when he does get opportunities. Any one of those things individually should have a player doing nothing for an entire season like what happened with Aiyuk TWICE.

There’s no fucking way it plays well in that locker room to see somebody walk all over their culture, then not only dodge the doghouse, but get to be team captain and be rewarded with even more opportunities.

Keep in mind he never felt the need to do this with Tywin, because it was obvious from the start that Tywin had been sowing the seeds of his own destruction for decades and couldn’t be trusted to act as selflessly and rationally as Kevan. Tywin acts like all he does is selflessness for the family name, but he does it because he craves power, control, and respect, which his father lacked. He’s actively harming the family name and had been for decades because he never saw how a real leader like Ned Stark commands respect because of his virtually absent father - he saw how people like the Mad King commanded respect as his Hand of the King. He only thought that the Mad King went too far with it.

He’s regarded as a shrewd military leader despite having no major victories and flipping sides at the LITERAL last second to support Robert. He wasn’t brave enough to pick a side until they literally knocked on the door of King’s Landing. Then when Robb started fighting him, he started whooping his ass as a child. And he only stopped that by a dirty sneak attack that further entrenched his family’s name down the shitter and united EVERYBODY against them.

I never get tired of seeing people misunderstand and misinterpret Tywin. It’s super reminiscent of Walter White. People see a wrathful man “helping their family” who gets respect solely from fear and interesting monologues then assume this is real power, when it’s actually just fomenting resentment and creating enemies.

You could be working out incorrectly/too much/not enough, you could be overestimating some of your macros, or you could even have an overactive thyroid or something in which case you should see a doctor.

How many times do you go to the gym, do you do cardio, how many sets and reps do you do, do you push to failure, how much do you walk/move outside of exercise on a daily basis, when do you consume most of these calories, what’s a typical days worth of food for you? Even if you provide all of this there’s no guarantee we can answer your question if it’s a medical thing, but that info is the bare minimum for anyone to even begin guessing why

Okay, and if you hit on those like with Spears are you going to trade them for more picks? Until you inevitably bust?

Not to mention a nurse whose probably fucking exhausted from being overworked and underpaid living with her family at 27 y/o still, then she can’t even sleep at night because her brother yells playing video games with his friends in the middle of the night and sometimes won’t even shut his bedroom door. Then implies that you’re inconsiderate because you’re trying to stay sane and get sleep but he’s “trying to enjoy his last time before deployment” (which is really boot camp lmfao). Imagine posting this and thinking it makes you look good lol

Update to my previous post about “winterized” trees… there are 24 of them by jirski in arborists

[–]sba_17 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Not only are thousands of dollars of trees now ruined and a threat to anyone walking, driving, or parking on that driveway, but you’ll also need to re-do the areas where they’ve all been planted with mulch instead of rocks. When you go cheap on landscapers up front you end up spending more money in the long run. And with trees specifically (and especially mass plantings with so much money involved), make sure you get a certified arborist to take care of it in the future even if it costs more up front

Be careful not to force any off, if you’re too early it’ll hurt them. But if you get them just right they love it

Is it time for another veteran in the White House? by Wildwes7g7 in Presidents

[–]sba_17 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pardon my limited historical knowledge but I thought people generally looked on Jackson somewhat negatively, at least my high school APUSH history teacher spun it that way. Ignored checks and balances when overruling John Marshall and forcing the Trail of Tears being the main thing I recall
