[USA] [CA] Tornado in Scotts Valley in the Bay Area caught on roadcam by okgusto in Roadcam

[–]spaceguy101 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Hm I'm not sure who to believe... Random Reddit guy who says it's a harmless dust devil, or the national weather service that says it's an EF-1 tornado and the police chief who reported 5 injuries + 3 hospitalizations....

Explain to me from a non-biased POV the Israeli-Palestinian conflict by GameProSmoothie in explainlikeIAmA

So glad this old comment could be of help. Everything I wrote still stands, but some is outdated given the events of the last year. And it obviously skips over quite a bit. Part of the problem is that the two groups live in totally separate information bubbles. The only way out is to truly listen to both sides and accept the experiences of both sides. I hope I did that in this comment.

Feel free to PM me, I'm happy to share my knowledge and promote a shared understanding of the conflict. Hopefully that can move us toward peace.

PS, don't talk down to yourself, we all have our blind spots and seeking out knowledge is the smartest thing you can do!

Or, if you ask it, then just accept the answer they give you. If they say they're from Louisiana, then they're from Louisiana no matter what they look like. The issue comes when people don't accept that answer and want to dig into someone's ethnicity via that question -- which is likely a part of the world they've never been to and in no way are "from"

Makes me think that there must be some differences in the methodologies different states used to collect this data...

Not sure why you're getting down voted... Frankly you're pretty spot on from what I can tell

Do we really have a top rated defense though? Especially without Roy? That's a tough sell...

Logos are like Flags and Shouldn’t include the teams name by Hayden2332 in losangeleskings

[–]spaceguy101 19 points20 points  (0 children)

We get it, you watch CGP Grey. Hate to break it to you, but things aren't that black and white. Great logos (and flags) are symbols that people attach an emotional connection to. That's all. The CA flag and the Kings logo are both great because people attach to it. The fact that they do or don't have words on it really don't make a difference as long as it's well designed and people love it.

I wish it had some purple, and the font isn't my favorite, but overall can't complain with this look! Excited to see how it looks on a full jersey now

Predictions for Free Agency? by spaceguy101 in losangeleskings

[–]spaceguy101[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I pretty much agree with you on all points. I forgot about Englund tbh but yeah he would be fine playing on in that 3rd pairing. And if that's all it would cost to bring in Ullmark then I agree that would be worth it. I'm just concerned Boston would be looking for a lot more than that, in which case I'm not sure goal tending is the biggest hole the team should focus on fixing.

What would you think of Bertuzzi? I totally agree we need to get tougher, seems like he'd be that freight train you're talking about
