Re: Uncle Joe

All fair points, twocoach. However, the fact remains that the new normal is working longer, for whatever reason. While they may be legitimate reasons, employees’ acceptance of what they would put up with would not have been normal even a few years ago. The department I lead does a lot of work with ...

Re: Finding New Shit on TV

This is the movie thread too? The Menu. My favorite new movie I have seen in at least 2 years. Original. Satirical. Gets into the human psyche. The strikes thread on the poli bored reminded me of this. The fact that this movie is refreshing because it's original is another strike against the striker...

Re: Welcome Marcus Adams Jr.

Just a guess based in on listening to the Lightfoot-Teahan podcast - I am guessing it was moreso not being to handle Self than playing time. I'm surprised this doesn't happen more often

Re: Dumbfuck in charge

Communists? Yes. To think of "socialism" being a defining characteristic of the Nazis is misunderstanding history I don't disagree with that. My objection is to using Nazi as a term to describe anyone with whom people disagree. The notion that Trump and anyone who supported him is racist ...

Re: Uncle Joe

I hate it. I know I'm in the minority. But I just hate not leaving my home. But I have a 12 minute commute. Might be different if that weren't the case.

Re: We Lost the Battle for the Republican Party’s Soul Long Ago

Someone who’ll give the globalists hell. Trey Gordy or Josh Hawley would be great, but I don’t think either would run. Hawley fits you Smart, tough, driven, America first mindset. I like him. I was thinking more along the lines of populist liberal, but is a Republican because that party no longer h...

Re: Dumbfuck in charge

That last one is frightening. I can't stand the new re-popularization of socialism and communism. But this is straight up Nazi shit. Unless he misspoke, given that he did first give the context of immigration. You do realize that Nazis are socialists, right? Who were their main political opponents?

Re: Weather

Basement? Nah. Summer between my junior and senior year of college we had about 5 tornado warnings. Our basement of the PoS home we rented was scary af. So instead our procedure was go to fridge, grab beer, and go out to the porch to look for the tornado. Got to see one form then go away, the rest w...

Re: F the NCAA

Genuine question, why the strong aversion to 96 teams? For me, 68 is already absurd and any further expansion just doesn't really matter. First round is still really, really fun. I don't think it would be with 96 teams. And making the tournament would be such a low bar to the point that it's meanin...

Fair enough. I mean, I am more swayed by the stats showing wage growth back to being significantly higher than inflation. And unemployment being very low. And a rise in workforce participation. I also am skeptical in the new work from home model. I know a couple people who are contracting at multipl...
