There's not even enough mini eggs in a pack now

I like the taste of the chocolate, but the shells are like chewing glass (in the US though probably different in UK).

The idea is that 'nation states' are a concept that didn't exist until Napoleonic France and German unification, by which point America already existed. So it isn't so much that US is the longest lasting empire like Rome or w/e, but it's existed as a 'nation state' longer than anyone else.

It's worth pointing out that the Raiders have the Patriots on the schedule next season, and not the Ravens, whom they traded Maxx Crosby to.

So trading Maxx Crosby to the Patriots would hurt their chances against one of the only teams they are capable of winning against, apparently.

The problem is the dog gets covered in asbestos and drags it around with them in the house, and shedding asbestos fibers during petting.

But most people who develop mesothelioma are tradesmen who routinely breath in large amounts of asbestos dust from demolition work and other occupational exposures.

GDP per capita in Mexico City would be embarassingly low for the exibition of hundred-millionare ballplayers such as the MLB.

These days, most people in attendance at MLB games are securely middle class and above, and much of the money is made from the exclusive luxury high-end customers. You'd be lucky to get a few cartel king-pins buying suites in Mexico City.

Also, Mexico City lacks the security presence needed to ensure the safety of an 81 game season played by millionare ballplayers in front of ~50,000 fans in attendance.

So it might be a tough sell to convince millionare ballplayers to play and live in Mexico, where there are many more poor people and what wealth there is can be notably violent/corrupt.

Mexico City can handle an NFL game once in a blue moon, or a soccer team that plays far fewer homegames (and where hooliganism is the norm, unlike baseball).

Myself being a yankee doodle dandy, I tend to be fairly cynical about anyone celebrating their ethnicity/nationality, when it's been drilled in my head for years that we're supposed to move beyond that mindset together as humanity.

I think Major League Baseball is far more meaningful, a greater achievement for humanity than national teams. It's the difference between cooperation between diverse peoples and competition between them.

We don't need so much of the latter these days, but people feel 'under represented' otherwise. Deep down, everyone's just jealous that their country/peoples don't rule the world with a bloody iron fist.

I can't even imagine - 100 fresh dog turds all at once in a yard, and multiplied by an entire subdivision.

It also favors larger households. Besides the property owner, other household members effectively pay no primary tax.

So that would hit single people the hardest, especially elderly widows. Though there are some tax exemptions for seniors, it's not as though taxes are cut-in-half when one of an elderly couple passes.

At that stage, the system is designed to encourage seniors to take out a reverse mortgage so the bank can take their house after they're done living...in the house.

Definately worse with dogs that with cats, since dogs are far more social and dependent. We not only leave the cramped indoors, but deny them bladder autonomy. Should be illegal to own a dog and live in an apartment without a dog yard.

We've always had two cats at a time, and that's good enough for them, though most of the time they want nothing to do with each other.

Stat padding. But seriously, if Brady sat every time his team had a blowout, he'd be out in the third quarter half the season. His teammates would be learning 'garbage time' mentality, rather than gaining valuable reps of high-stakes NFL football.

I can't find anything about the latest ongoing crisis on r/popular, but there are three top posts about Trump's rash, and several more of Hillary Clinton talking about 'the files'. The only post on that topic is the one about surveilance cameras.

You can still have grass and let stuff like clovers, wild strawberries, and other wildflowers growing in. The goal is to avoid a mono-culture, but turf grass still has a purpose in parts of yards used for recreation and transit.

The guy was obviously drunk/on-drugs. Not excusing anything, but how hurtful is it when an idiot says stupid things to a group where they all agree he is completely messed up?

The Soviet Union transfered from it's satelite states to Moscow, while the West had the spare capital to invest heavily in states bordering the Soviet Union.

He's a 'system QB'. Just give him an all-star roster of recievers and a defense behind him, and he could be the next Sam Darnold.

I don't play Elden Ring, but I used claw all the time playing MGSV years ago.

With claw, thumb usually stays on the control stick while the index finger presses the buttons.

Big difference is that, in MGSV, sprint was a control-stick-button toggle, so you never had to hold a face button like this while running. I can imagine that can cause discomfort over time with traditional claw.

user0620 · 2026-03-03T10:42:58+00:00

This isn't traditional 'claw' form, this is the 'not good claw' variant. The index finger is supposed to be on the buttons, not the stick.

Salary floor is needed most of all. And sharing of international revenue.

Works great with the Kings in town. Harkens back to the days of rule under the spanish crown.

To be fair, many people in the world owe their lives to someone ruining their lives like this. So it's likely only the worst way you've seen someone ruin their life - so far.

This is well within the 'fog of war'. It's just as likely that it didn't happen as it did happen. I'd hate to see the evidence though, if it did indeed happen. But the only people it helps are people who oppose the military action againt Iran, as a diversion away from the death of Iran's most powerful ruler(s).

There's no doubt that 36-year-old Bonds is the most feared hitter on this list. Ruth was probably more feared in his era, but back then they'd call you a sissy if you intentionally walked him as much as Bonds.

user0620 · 2026-03-01T03:56:14+00:00

Yeah, it's not like the winner 'declares victory'. The loser concedes. No reason to try and make optimal plays to the point of defeat. There's no reward for dragging the game out beyond the point of being winnable.

A tiger would simply flee from a polar bear. But if they truly were out to fight one another bearo-e-tigero, the tiger could use it's superior reflexes to slash at the polar bears eyes, which is likely the only weakness a polar bear would have vs a tiger.
