Help please. I am a white man, which obviously means I’m hated and despised by Brie Larson, Carol Danvers, Marvel, Disney, SJWs, modern music, young people, democrats, fast-food commercials, several constitutional amendments, and the MEDIA.  Yet I am also very excited to see this movie.

Counterpoint: if total actual votes were “proof” that someone would win, we’d have Hillary now (and Al Gore in 2000).

To be fair, who could have possibly foreseen that signing a couple of Machado’s buddies wouldn’t offset paying him tens of millions of dollars less than another team in a much better climate.

The reaction against birth plans is kind of odd. The whole point is that the hospital has its own plan but, unlike what some are saying, that plan is not simply “do what’s in the best interest of mama and baby.” So, you should have yours as well. I’m no anti-western medicine guy - I strongly believe in vaccination,…

BUH GAWD!  THAT’S THE VOLKMAN’S MUSIC!

I’ve got no problem with AD seeking a trade, even one to his preferred destination.  Good for him.

Counterpoint: Fuck the Lakers.

Quick update: Beach Camera is on LG’s list of authorized retailers (which most of the bait-and-switch type places are not), so that gives me much more assurance.

Thank you for the help, both of you. One follow up. The Walmart website says the TV is “Sold & shipped by Beach Camera.”  Does that affect the calculus at all?  Like, is this a manufacturer refurb still, or some other random company with which I should have less trust?

What are the primary reasons 2018 TVs are “refurbished”?  I’m always wary of that, like it might indicate the TV had some fundamental underlying problem or was subject to serious overuse/abuse, but I have no basis for that worry.

Making smart draft picks outside the prime spots, bringing in the right free agents to fit a coherent system, and then finally, only when the time is right, risking the big trade that completes the puzzle is a far trickier way to build a basketball team, but it’s also been the way that’s historically most successful. …

Counterpoint: The Hawks have legitimate hope for trading for AD because I WANT IT SO BAD IT HAS TO HAPPEN AND I’LL BROOK NO DISSENT ON THIS!

You’re sort of making my point with every post. Obamacare felt “about as radical as banning semi automatic firearms would be now” because essentially no national politicians had been pushing for what are actually far-left solutions to healthcare, for a couple decades at least (e.g., single payer). Consequently, when…

It was a good show. It was no Dawson’s Creek, but a good show nonetheless.

Obamacare definitely did not start “all of the fake news and misinformation being spread on a massive scale by the other side.” That began long before with Rush, FoxNews, and their ilk. And that you think Obamacare was radical is exactly why we need to move the window. It was a tepid, business friendly type of solution…

Moving the Overton window isn’t about waiting until the moment you can do everything at once. It’s about pushing ideas that seem radical (to those who don’t necessarily agree with them) so that when you do have power you might be able to implement them or at least implement something closer to them. Fuck, when Obama…

The motherfucker’s party controlled both houses of Congress for two years and didn’t get this shit done. It’s not Democrats fault that he would shutdown the government now that they’ve taken one of the houses back and won’t abide his racist fucking fantasy that they have long (and rightfully) opposed.  

With no due respect, when is the appropriate time for someone to take AOC’s “extreme” positions. We’ve had decades of most democrats refusing to go much farther left than center, and all it has done is embolden right-wing lunatics and provide incremental-at-best progress (progress that I certainly support, but that is…

The guy starting for Alabama, too.

Tax the rich fairly, drastically cut unnecessary military spending (which is like most of it), and don’t waste money on dumb fuck ideas like border walls. Boom, paid for.
