To be clear they can't do everything I mentioned yet and they will hopefully go under before they can

I do.

you think VAR makes for a better entertainment product?

If they took away VAR, the next season everyone would be screaming to have it back.

I doubt it.

Eight Sleep is trying to be a data company, it's kinda spooky

yeah, that's weird, but IDGAF if they want my snoring data. I'm def not going to pay them $15 or $24 monthly for having it though.

well it's a little deeper than that. for example, they claim they will one day be able to tell you are getting the flu, before you know you have the flu. Their pitch is they would be able to help you treat it sooner but their real money maker is selling that info to folks like insurance companies or advertisers or any number of people who could benefit from your health information. They would be able to tell if you're drinking, or had sex, or exercised that day, are gaining weight, etc. Kinda scary where people could take it.

I have only been to Tokyo and I loved it. I was going to suggest going to Robot Restaurant but it looks like they are permanently closed. :frown:

I didn't know Benedictine was a weird fundy college. There are like a lot of normal Catholic universities.

I think a big reason Butker is more controversial is because most people agree that drunk driving and domestic violence is wrong.

(Butker's crew might be ok with a little wife beating if the Bible allows it but you get my point)

I like how the first 3 and last 3 are like all feelings and subjective elements of the VAR process, but the middle 3 are legit AF complainst, especially #4.

I mean the "feelings" are completely valid fan experience/entertainment concerns. At the end of the day they are in the business of entertainment and VAR leads to a worse entertainment experience overall IMO - even if it's subjective I don't think many people would disagree with that premise.

Dude thinks he can still host an AFTERNOON daily national sports talk radio show while running a division 1 basketball program.

Acids are spicy/sour
Bases(aka alkaline iykwim) are bitter

what about coffee
I would guess the bitterness comes from the caffeine, which is a methylxanthine alkaloid

ok but the liquid known as coffee is acidic and tastes bitter.  :dunno:

Mocat my dude, there are few hard and fast absolutes, there’s almost always an exception to the rule or some weird quirk technicality. Pumpkins are berries. Water is technically lava. I’d bet dollars to donuts that the “acids are sour/spicy and bases are bitter” maxim will get you there +95% of the time

in this case, arguably the most famous and prevalent "spicy" food chemical (Capsaaicin) is not acidic. It's technically a base but its pH is not what influences the sensation of spice.

Excursion day! Pretty low key/lame group. I was one of the only ones drinking. I was enjoying chatting/hanging with the two captains while everyone else was hanging with kids. I’m a pretty low key drinker and most people won’t know if I’ve had 18 or 7 drinks. (Internet merchants absolutely know).

Had a pretty great day and on our way off, Lil SF gave an elite fist bump and here’s our tip “explosion” to the captain which made him and I laugh our balls off. He planned it all himself
which was pretty great. Got off the boat and met up with Mrs SF. You know how I said most people don’t know how drunk I am?  Mrs SF knows every time!!  She was laughing at me and we then went to dinner and later to a bar. I spilled my martini on me and she finally got a bit mad at me but to my defense I told her how drunk I’ve been all day and she knew it so it was basically her fault.

My grandpa killed a dog that bit me when I was a toddler. More accurately it kind of mauled me and I have scars on my face from it. I don't care to dive into the details of Noem's case (or debate how my grandpa managed his dog) but I don't think farmers killing dogs is quite as uncommon as the reaction makes it seem.

Sheesh I was skeptical of a manager boost but man palace has been on fire

When you read the indictment it has such a familiar theme . . .

Makes you think
Makes you think about what?

The FIVE edits to this made me chuckle


Faustus8:15a
Reynolds and Jackman are pissed about DEI so they refused to do 5 interviews with Behar.

Seems like a normal reaction rather than a right wing fever dream.

Googling this links me to the same video over and over from some rando that's in the OP. MSM doesn't want you to know about DEI, Reynolds, and Behar!

I liked the idea that since the only source they could find is the same as the op, it's clearly a cover up by the MSM
“You think THAT sounds ridiculous, well guess what, even more ridiculous is I can’t find any legitimate sources to back it up. What are they hiding?”

Literally no one is reporting this!!
I had to Google it and the texags thread was the first result after the source youtube links

It's also wild how seriously seamlessly you could substitute "black people" for "DEI" and not change the meaning at all
