War Room Lounge v111: Err...I didn't mean to turn this into another thread about trouser lumber.

[HockeyBjj]

the $500 slush fund controlled by the most corrupt president in history is ludicrous. You’d have to be a fucking idiot to approve of that. You can skip the bullshit and just write government checks to Trump properties at that point.

Yes. And they should have kept it focused to that. That would have shifted opinions to dems being in the right of this. Instead it’s also a laundry list of pandering dem debate bullshit that they want.

Imagine Rs blocking a bill, where the focus should have indeed been on something like the lack of funding behind it and wanting some modest cuts, but instead saying there needs to be a nationwide ban of abortion after 6 weeks, repeal all local laws about gun ownership, and all businesses need to be closed two hours on Sunday so employees can go to church. Rs would then be the ones blocking a bill for bullshit reasons.

You forgot the most important thing:



@HockeyBjj and @Prokofievian get it

I’m not a hockey guy (loved playing as a kid but never got into the NHL) but playoff hockey is fucking amazing. It was a lot of fun to watch the rangers have a bunch of good runs (I don’t experience the pain of defeat since I’m not a fan).

My opinion is Brock versus Fedor through 2008 equals Fedor via destruction. Brock versus post-2008 Fedor equals coin flip.

Good point. I was just assuming prime fedor but late career fedor was very gettable.

It’s not really a laundry list though. There are a couple of BS things then there are economic measures that you’d expect from Dems. You think it’s Bs because you don’t agree with them.

The one benefit of working from home... I've gotten to catch up on Archer.

Seasons 8-10 I get being weird but goddamn did they get weird.

 

[senri]

Fuck Kyle but lol

Hahah I'm trying to think around what he just said there... Sounds like nothing and something at the same time...

 

[HockeyBjj]

Lol. Anyone want to download an official FBI workout app? Don’t mind that it gets permissions to camera, file storage, and location. Purely coincidence.

FBI can suck my ass.

Mine suggested I warm up with 20 pushups, 20 crunches, and then proceeded to tell me to gather explosive material and to state intent to bomb a federal building. How does that burn calories? This app sucks.

 

[PolishHeadlock2]

Huh. What’s the more details to this? Because 20% cut to salaries (over say 70?k) in order to keep paying hourly folk (assuming it’s not like nice union 30+/hr) their more needed paychecks and everyone’s benefits stay active seems a great way to deal with this mess if that’s the margin needed to not go out of business.

I would glad take a temporary 20% pay cut while keeping my health insurance in order to stay home and safe and not be traveling to job sites like I am now in a heartbeat.

You're assuming the 20% cut is needed

No one gladly takes a 20% pay cut.

 

[PubliusVentidius]

This quarantine convinced me that the best economic system is the one where we pay farmers, truck drivers and supermarket workers an obscene amount of money to work so that they become the 1% while the rest leisure away with a UBI.

 

[My Spot]

Would Fedor be allowed to take Pride vitamins?

 

[Trotsky]

It just me or does this advertisement picture or Entrepreneur make it look like this guy is working next to a dead body in a bag?

Or is this just a Rorschach test showing that I'm a murderer

I mean....what is that supposed to be otherwise?

The bag clearly has the outline of a yuman body, from the head, to the shoulders, to the crossed arms.

I already gave you the answer

To stay home in this mess with an at risk wife I risk bringing something home to, I would.

 

[tonni]

It’s word salad with some key terms he rememberd. Cure, problem, fight...

Well, it depends on how much you're making. I don't have any reason to believe it's the case with the Sixers, but employers have been known to use salaried positions to exploit low-level workers by skirting overtime pay provisions.

Been known to... lol understatement of the week day, I think. Maybe it's not so common these days (or is it?) but when I was entering the workforce, it was understood to be an extremely common practice in many fields.
