Owning property is better than renting. Unless you have significant income, owning property means you essentially part rent to yourself and hopefully earn equity as home values increase in general, increasing your wealth. Renting just makes some other person wealthier and reduces your wealth.

No, because they form a right angle, as they fan out across the globe, the foul lines would actually meet and touch again on the direct opposite side of the earth from home plate. Now, you could do a few things with this. Make it so only one quarter of the earth’s surface is actually “in play” with three quarters as…

What really blows my mind is that I don’t think Boston actually forfeits a pick if they re-sign Kimbrel.  They straight up just don’t want to pay him. Meanwhile, their relief corps has been half as good as the AL East leading Yankees (1.9 and 3.9 fWAR, respectively).

Cecilia was a filthy Roadhog main in her overwatch days, so she's probably pretty at hone in Smashwatch

While I agree the center is the peak of pancake goodness, this is insane. The optimal strategy is to cut off pieces to eat and rotate the plate as you go, saving those buttery centers for your last, and most satisfying bites.

Lobotomy?

Dude if you're drinking at 10:30 after FOR hours of work, you've been away long enough to drink.  Like, I think it's fine if a person who works nights, gets home at 7 am and has a beer.  Your internal clock is more important than Grandma's/society's construct of proper times to crack open a cold one with grandad

My wife claims that Germans don’t drink beverages with a proper meal, instead waiting until finished eating to wash everything down. I call bullshit because I’ve been to Germany and never seen that. But it’s what her German grandmother did. So even though she was born in Maine and her last name is French, she only…

So... a duck?

RDR and RDR2... Rockstar did some fantastic and emotionally story telling there.  

And it doesn’t even matter because sick burns and owns mean nothing in this sphere. You can only hold them accountable at the ballot box, and incumbents, even incompetent ones, are frustratingly hard to remove.

It’s not like it’s NYC or these other things.  Small cities have culture and charm all their own.  I’ve lived in a few mill towns and old port towns in my lifetime, and they are also great places to live.  Like everything, they do have their drawbacks.  But so does city living.

Yeah, I forgot about Black Cat. I’ve unlocked but never use it. The real kicker here though is that the school girl outfit (in like, general pop culture and porn) is infantilized AND sexualized.

this is...fascinating!  I just learned a lot!

To be fair, Ouya was a start up.  Google is...not.  They have a ton of money to keep throwing at this if they want to.  I think Google would have more success with game streaming in any number of highly connected countries.  

If you have a Switch, you definitely don’t need this.

Usually excess profits to corporations flow back to the holders of capital, through stock buy-backs (which inflate stock price) or dividends. Unless you are a major stock holder of a company, the effect really more of a drip than a trickle.

Poor D.Va... that is probably the thirstiest skin in the game, next to Witch Mercy.  Jeff actually said it would “break the internet” at one point.  I don’t think OW has that much caché anymore, but the whole school girl thing seemed like it was intentional.

Not only did they cut seven episodes from the last two seasons, but much of it was taken up by huge, hour-plus long battles.  As cool as battles can be, there is little story telling and character building needed there.  One third of the final season was just death and destruction.  I think we knew that the fighting…

meh, that is what contracts are for.  Robert Downey Jr. had a contract that locked him in as Iron Man for over a decade.
