I think people stay in my streams for an average of 1 minute. Not everyone is interested in watching a man look at a hogtied player through a window.

I haven't been watching any basketball this season, and had to look it up.

Lebron James being in the discussion at 36 years old is absolutely bonkers. 26/8/8 in his 18th season is ridiculous. That man has some weapons grade juice.

I'm a huge Lebron fan and he's obviously still killing it but MVP should be between Embiid and Jokic imo. Those 2 are absolutely crushing it

What am I wrong about? Obama being a generational talent?

About his talent overcoming the negative impact from his race. I mean, if political talent is being liked, worked on me. I'm not convinced that he made a noticeable difference.

Of course, the most important factor is that the GOP had just shit the bed in its two terms in office and a generic Democrat would be favored in that race.

But, after looking at exit polls for the 2000/2004/2008 elections, I actually think @HockeyBjj has a better quantitative basis for his opinion than I did for mine when I said it. Obama did perform better than Kerry and about the same as Gore with white voters. I had thought he ceded a few points in the white electorate.

I don't think either of you had any basis for your comments. I wouldn't regard SS-D's findings as definitive (net negative 3 points--minus four related to racism, plus one related to black turnout), but I think they're more grounded than anyone just spouting off.
 
So another day in the French Quarter. It's a beautiful day outside so I lift my giant ass window and see a crackhead across the street. Typical crackhead stuff, spinning in circles until he grabs onto the back of a pick up truck... doing his best to stay up. Eventually he falls backwards onto a Caddy (owned by a buddy who owns two bars on my block), tries to get up a few times.... then just conks the fuck out.

I head downstairs to laugh and get the Death Row details with the homies, the owner of the Caddy says "Well that's an easy way to not get a ticket" and leaves because he can't drive off.

Cop shows up in a smart car, crackhead sees the cop in front of him and JUMPS the fuck up and tries to talk his way out of it. Clearly not legible. We're all laughing and everyone goes back into their bars to work or drink... A fucking meter maid shows up within five minutes and gives him a ticket lmao.

I try to say "hey the reason he's still parked there is that dude was passed out on his car, that's why they called the cops" She straight looks at me, shrugs, laughs, and goes about ruining other peoples days.

At least he picked a nice car to nap on literally right across the street from my apartment lol.

I’m sad about dr Seuss being canceled, but to be fair, I had only read one of his books that was on the racist list. I loved the thinks you can think, it is or was not sure if they’ll be easy to find, always part of my baby shower gifts.

What does it even mean that "Dr. Seuss" is canceled? What happened is just that some of his obscure stuff (that really is indefensible) is out of print because of a decision by his heirs. No one is protesting his other work or anything. Not being removed from anywhere.
 


@HockeyBjj p4p best casting: Podrick. p4p worst: Littlefinger.

People forget just how freakish of an athlete he is. He's a great technical player as well, but his size/speed combo is as good or better than anyone in basketball history.

Dude, it would be epic if you went over and gave that guy a handjob.

Dude, your reaction to seeing a massively important bill that cuts child poverty in half was to screech about how the money will be wasted. Which, again, despite what @Trotsky says, applies equally to all forms of income.
Click to expand...
No screeching. I asked your opinion on restricting that money from being spent on non-child related things like tattoos and casinos. You immediately started screeching about some bullshit.

Government: Passes child tax credit to benefit children to reduce childhood poverty.

Honest question: Should we put in securities to prevent that money from being spend irresponsibly on such things as tattoos and casinos? Ya know, as a means to protect the children this money is intended to benefit.

Reasonable answer: Well, yes we would obviously want that money to be spent on the intended purpose of raising and protecting children from the dangers of poverty (mental and physical). However, at this point its would delay these important checks from being dispersed. Additionally, we feel that the % of people who would waste this money is relatively insignificant and a cost benefit analysis would probably show that those protections would actually limit how much we can dispense to the families that need it.

Jack V. Savage's answer: THiS iS WhY i HaTE TrUE pRogResSives; tHey HaTE POoR pEoPLe!!!


edit: changed "honest" to "reasonable"

Little finger was cast well. Just once the writers ran out of book dialogue to copy line for line, they couldn't do anything with him that wasn't painful to witness

I did like the Podrick song homage to Pippin's song in Return of the King.

Best Casting- Original Mountain
Worst Casting- 2nd Mountain

That's the first excerpt I've seen from the interview. I really do like Markle from what I've seen though.



Obama merely matched Al Gore's performance with white voters despite being way, way more talented. I think it's pretty safe to presume that, if he were white, the gains in white votes would have offset the relative turnout increases for nonwhite voters.

I didn't watch the interview, but after watching Piers Morgan get bent out of shape I am firmly Team Meg & Harry
