I do carbon accounting for a living, and the break-even point in terms of emissions per passenger on private jets is surprisingly low (usually 25-ish). This is mostly due to smaller planes being much more fuel efficient than larger commercial flights. I typically work with numbers per passenger mile as opposed to per…

I think that most sports would rather get it empirically right, rather than emotionally right, since there are all ranges of emotions at play.  

I believe the logical conclusion is that AB retires to become a helmet designer, and uses Lavar Ball’s manufacturing connections to go to market.  

I didn’t think that the national teams’ arguments factored into account club payments in terms of total pay, only the change from a bonus system to a salary for the regularity of income. Also, I’m not sure how the variability of who specifically is on the roster matters much, since players not on the roster aren’t…

Do those net out to different total incomes, or the same total in this case? I recognize that the payment structure is different, but the total amount paid out seems like the relevant detail. If they’re making less than the men when adjusted for the differences in payment structure, then that’s not right, and if…

Does anyone have a good sense for what the USSF’s claim against is? Even if I disagree, I genuinely don’t understand their position. If it’s based on popularity, revenue, etc.,seems like those are easy metrics to prove out. 

I don’t see anything wrong with this picture. How another person looks, especially a person that I don’t know, affects me in zero ways.  

But why? I’m curious to see how you defend having an opinion on someone else’s dental expenses.

Seriously, I don’t understand how this is considered fine. If there’s a reason we should be shit talking Simon Cowell, let’s focus on that. This is just going in on the way someone looks, which is fucking low. 

I mean, making fun of someone’s potential body dysmorphia does feel mean spirited, so maybe don’t do it?

A 401k isn’t something that an employer offers though. They can make it one step easier for you, but if your employer isn’t matching, there is not a difference between a 401k through an employer and a 401k that you open yourself.

I’m a fan of the over/into the sink finish. It’s already at the correct height for my dong, and I can really just flip on the water and it’s gone.

Why are you not using the marvels of modern plumbing? You don’t have to deposit your seed in a way where you have to deal with the shame later. You can just get a nut and then forget the time in which you were unpure.

A man doing this to a woman is not the same as a woman doing this to a man.  They’re both shitty, surely, but it seems like you’re posing them as equal infractions and that’s simply not correct. There is plenty of room for nuance in this.

“Women with power are just as disgusting” is categorically false. They can also be disgusting, as evidenced above, but this ain’t a 50/50 split.

So were you suggesting something actionable, or just saying that it would be nice?

A study last year by the University of Michigan said that 82% of Americans live in urban areas, and more than 270 of those areas have populations over 100k.  So like, how do you think this actually plays out? I’m a NYC resident, for example, and that seems like an insane expectation to have for the police.

I’m going to need more chronicles from Bizarro Locker Room, because this fucked me way up.

Sounds like we may know some of the same people. My buddy is the guy behind their new Lost Palate beer, which if you know is the story is why I think the OP’s post of generally “Goose Island” sold out is a trraasssh take. 

Exactly, changes in the game, how it’s played, and the overall rising tide of talent makes it a very difficult title to administer. For example, Wilt Chamberlain in his prime was so much better than every other player in the league, but if you were making a starting-5 dead or alive team in 2019, he wouldn’t get picked…
