« on: May 02, 2024, 10:32:29 AM »Dai Dai and RJ were moving backward on the depth chart with Dug, Castillo, CJ and seemingly Battle. They went from 3rd and 4th at the position to probably 4th and 6th. We'll see how the rest of the roster fills out, but we'd probably need to run 3 guards quite a bit (which we might do) for Dai Dai and RJ to even get the minutes they got last year.
I don't remember where I saw it, but I saw someone post something saying that Dai Dai was told he would still be starting most likely, but he was still advised by his ppl to leave. No clue on validity.

This is correct. It is also why it seems like quite a bit of things suck lately because powers that be aren't doing a good job of regulating things like meta, google, or really anything else that exists mostly or totally on line, imo.

Do any of the AD folks still post here? If so, I have an NIL idea:
They need to set up an account that can receive venmo, text donations, etc via mobile, then flash that on the jumbo screens at all games so that fans can donate in the heat of the moment, while they are all horned up, to the KState Collective, or whatever they are rough ridin' calling it. They should flash that on the screen after every touch down, sack, alley oop, etc. It should be on all screens as fans enter and exit all games.
Would be a good idea to figure out how to milk for the NIL money since that is the future.

« on: May 01, 2024, 01:55:22 PM »other than losing muscle as well as fat, i haven't heard of a single concern re. glp-1 use. on the contrary, every story that comes out on them is is like "welp, we found another thing these drugs cure without even trying".
i think i'm gonna try to buy some of the oral version the next time i'm in mexico.
I think the muscle loss could be prevented if you eat enough protein, unless there is something about the drug itself that makes protein vulnerable, the reason ppl lose it is because they aren't eating enough of it when they are in deficit. However, to do that you would have to track macros, and most folks aren't going to do that.
Pete, make sure you are getting enough protein.

« on: May 01, 2024, 09:26:33 AM »Can you take it indefinitely? If not I don't see how it works long term.
The folks I know on one of these has been told by their doc that you can't get off it other wise the weight will all come back.
I don't know for sure, but I think that is probably not complete info, at best. I imagine it's like any diet where the weight comes back unless you make lifestyle changes.
This is interesting. I just assumed barring a medical issue causing you to be overweight, you could take this and stop after a period. The drug companies obviously don't want you to do that at all though. If this works like people say and you can also exercise and eat better while taking, you are probably golden. Again, its really the person's self control barring a med issue. Like, plastic surgery also works awesome, but if you don't eat better and exercise after, its all coming back.
That info is what they say their primary care doc is saying, which means that is what the drug rep is saying, which means they drug rep just wants to keep selling their drug rather than ppl eating a salad instead of a 3rd, 4th, and 5th slice of pizza. That is my take, anyway.

« on: May 01, 2024, 09:20:46 AM »I think we can dismiss as a myth the idea that Tang builds a special bond with his players. Maybe Tomlin, but Linton crap on that.
Uncontrolled NIL destroyed the idea of school or coach loyalty when dealing with 18 year old kids.
We are still probably better off with Tang. From the guy I know that has interacted with Tang a few times, Tang has a personality that makes you feel like you both already know each other and is very likable. Same guy told me Reem is even more so like that. Those are great attributes if we have to sell our team to a new 7 or 8 kids annually. Especially if Tang's new contract has a significant NIL component.

Guys, it’s a bad joke born of frustration of bad dog owners. I am a long time dog guy.
I have spoken to them twice in a neutral way(the man and woman each once). Another time I asked them, while they were outside with their grown two kids, for their help in keeping their dogs and mine safe as I had just finished breaking up a dog fight while they watched. I told them I can keep mine in but can’t keep yours out and they fight badly when their dog comes over.
I have yelled at both of them twice at even later incidents as well.
Nothing.
I don’t want to call animal control because in our county that often ends in the animal being put down. I am hesitant to do anything via the HOA because of how two issues, both wildly easier to resolve, were handled last year(one ended in a lawsuit and the other in a public declaration on social media of a neighbor being called a pedo for not letting an bad person ride his atv in the accused’s lawn).

Thinking about really loading up this summer.
1. Bb pistol I can keep on the deck to shoot wasps.
2. Paintball gun. My neighbors dog likes to come into my yard and poop/pick fights with my dogs. I have an invisible fence. It keeps my dogs in but won’t keep her dog out. She has zero fence and thinks that she can let her dog roam willy nilly. It’s a bright white dog. Feel like a few good bright red shots will get the point across.

« on: April 25, 2024, 06:41:34 PM »Can someone recommend a plumber/handyman in the KC area for a relatively simple job? Just need the faucet in my kitchen sink replaced but I can't get the job done because I'm a beta city boi. I've replaced a bathroom faucet but this one may need to be sawed off since the "Anchors" that secure the faucet to the sink are "sealed" or something..cant get em off.
Vielhauer plumbing has been my go to for quite some time. They get to us quick and are inexpensive.
I redid my master bath a few years ago and didn’t want to mess with setting my own shower base. I have another plumber I have worked with a lot as well. I had both bid the job and Vielhauer was half the price and did great. They have done quite a bit of small stuff for me. 10/10
Noted! I need some small crap done like flip where the disposal is and the hot/cold are the wrong way so just going to buy a new kitchen faucet and have them do all that at once.
had these dudes out to bid what I needed and was pleasantly surprised. Thanks for the tip!
Glad you had a good experience.

« on: April 25, 2024, 06:38:06 PM »I mean, name one politician you could trust with that power?
There is no human that can go through what is needed to go through to be president that wouldn't abuse the crap out of that power.
Something like 20-30 companies would effectively hold that same power immediately upon the ruling being made. Is this not setting up the king for a day scenario, but forever instead of a day?
I didn't listen to the argument and don't know what the specific case issues are, but it seems to me like SCOTUS could easily avoid almost all the legal questions involved by just saying there is no way you can consider a president's conspiracy to undermine his own elected ouster to be an "official act" of a president. That is, quite possibly, the most ridiculous thing I could imagine any U.S. court ruling--much less the Supreme Court.
Trump's position is premised on the argument that he should only be subject to criminal prosecution if he is impeached and convicted by the senate, but if undermining the political process itself is part of the immunity then that qualification is meaningless in the hands of a tyrant, who could simply threaten/coerce/assassinate any who would seek to carry out impeachment proceedings. The democratic experiment would be over.
That may sound alarmist, but what I'm actually getting at here is "losing" this case only means that the Supreme Court declines to give clearer instructions as to whether immunity for criminal charges is ever an option for acts taken by a president. There's no way he gets out of facing charges for Jan. 6.
Unless Trump wins, I assume.
