I think that the % of narcissists in politics must be multiples higher than other professions, which sucks because potentially great public servants don't want anything to do with that shitshow. So we get what we have now.
As for me personally, I view admitting wrongness as a strength. Makes you appear more credible, IMO.
I agree. Admitting fault or being wrong is very effective for gaining social strength.
Being correct is very strong, but you have to actually be correct. Dumb narcissists fail to understand that they are not the smartest person in all rooms, and their cover ups are seen my many as cringe bullshit. I have no doubt that she thinks she really controlled that convo and really landed it like a boss.

Thankfully, the need for ties went away about 17 yrs ago.

I bought a Caraway enamel coated skillet this week. So far it’s pretty great.

Big neck and long torso. Never was able to do anything other than twice around, up, and through. Needed to spare all the tie outside the knot I could.

Not sure how many bigs are in the portal, but might be worth trying to entice Colbert to stick around.

English muffins benefit from sausage and cheese or hollandaise sauce doing 100% of the heavy lifting 100% of the time.

« 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.

« on: May 02, 2024, 09:20:48 AM »Not answering for BAC, but in my opinion capitalism is great but similar to our militias it needs to be well regulated.
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.

Should we just designate Arkansas, North Texas, and another one or two schools as our farm teams and transfer kids down and up as they need?
