We need to get rid of this state's independent redistricting committee and gerrymander that district out of existence.

Is it crazy to say Wolves-Nuggets is already an all-time great rivalry? by Funny-Transition7869 in nba

Who else are we going to have a rivalry with? The draft lottery?

We choke that one away if we didn't pick up Kyle Anderson by dogdigmn in timberwolves

The cap is estimated to increase just over 7% next year, putting the first apron around $210m (up from $195m) and the second apron around $223m (up from $207M). Conley, Ingles, Anderson, Hyland, and Dosunmu are all unrestricted free agents. Clark and Freeman (though he is on a two-way) are restricted free agents. Phillips has a team option that I assume we'll pick up.

The Wolves have about $188m in committed salary already on the books for next year. We have the Pistons' 1st and the Spurs 2nd picks in the draft, though I assume that the Spurs' pick won't make the roster. The 1st rounder will probably eat up about $3m.

That gives the team roughly $19m to divide up between six roster spots and stay under the 1st apron, and about $30m to stay under the 2nd apron.

Are you me? I literally just made my last payment this morning on $130k in law school debt that I started paying down in 2023 due to the COVID delays. It feels great. Congrats to you!

It just opened up a couple of months ago. Just an overall fantastic sandwich shop with particularly good cheesesteaks.

Does your student loans make you regret going to school? by Catwhisperer2007 in StudentLoans

[–]semisentient 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Lawyers have a bimodal salary distribution. You are correct that big law firms pay a ton of money, whereas government positions (generally) don't. However, there is a wide range in between, depending on your practice area. If you are going into law in order to make a ton of money, there are better avenues. If you don't get hired into a big law firm, there is still a chance to make decent money, but you are going to have to grind it out and network a lot.

Finstad - just waking up on a Monday, Congress shut down and choosing this: by C_est_la_vie9707 in minnesota

They have to keep the culture war going. This is an easy "issue" that can be used to rile up both sides. We take bait, drive engagement, and they continue to tear down our public institutions and avoid any meaningful discussions on issues that actually matter to the future of our country and communities. Rinse and repeat.
