Everything I read says the EV credit is NOT refundable. This means that the Venn diagram of people with $7,500 in tax liability AND who are below the 300% federal poverty level basically does not exist. Add in “shopping for a car costing more than $27,000" and “owning a place where they could plug in an EV”, and I’m…

This underscores the fact that Republicans majority is so slim that with retirements, resignations, deaths, and even someone like Santos ending up in jail that it’s entirely possible we could have Speaker Jeffries at some point in the next two years. 

Ghosts:

“I hope his mother’s ghost haunts him for the rest of his days”

Completely irrelevant when one has no moral fabric or soul to haunt. The dead don’t matter when one is dead to the world.

Are we really surprised anymore? The right wing has been all about power over principles for some time now. The whole Speaker fiasco was a perfect exhibit in that. 

“There were some very personal things happening that the public had no idea about, and there were great frustrations that grew while there were basically backroom deals being struck.”

Look, I think we can all agree that if anyone gets to be an egomaniac jabroni (...sure, that’s a word), it’s The Rock. I mean, come on, he took over the name of the most common object on the planet. You know how cow milk is so prevalent that we just call it “milk”? How chicken eggs are so overwhelmingly popular that…

You’re never going to convince me that there’s a real person named “Lucius Laviscount.” That’s clearly a villain from a Gothic horror novel (“Lucius the Viscount”? really??).

This is the right take. Her plays make perfect sense from the perspective of knowing only if she’s ahead or behind in the hand and nothing else. If you watch the entire livestream from the beginning (I did - all three hours), every single play she makes lines up with that theory. Whenever she’s behind in a hand facing…

she also has the very worst blocker in the deck when having a pure bluff catcher.

I think it came out that those results were an accidental combo of multiple players. If you go to her Hendon Mob now, you’ll see that she only has results dating back to 2021, and she didn’t play a buy-in over $1k until this summer. And as someone who’s been playing the WSOP since 2009 and has several cashes, I…

You put forward some interesting theories, especially the idea of cheating that’s so primitive it simply tells her if she has the better hand at that point.

Sorry in advance for the novel. As someone who’s spent too much of his life playing and studying poker, I think I can shed some light on the mechanics of the alleged device cheating.

What the article doesn’t mention is that computer analysis of Neimann’s game history shows that he has played at least a half-dozen games in recent tournaments where he had 100% correlation with the best chess engines — meaning that every move he played, in games lasting as long as 45 moves, was the top choice from at…

i think it is very reasonable to be very worried about cheating in chess, a game in which cheating is in fact a known large problem...

If he’s been cheating online beyond what he previously admitted to, I feel like that’s enough. No need to find proof he also cheated in person, a cheater is a cheater and a liar is a liar. This has happened a lot in esports, people who get caught cheating ‘as a joke’ early in their career have been caught cheating or…

I mean the dude is literally the top chess player in the world. Its pretty sus that he lost like this

If Paul Thomas Anderson was feuding with Timothee Chalamet because he kept disappearing from set to conduct an affair with Megan Thee Stallion and they got into a screaming match about it......yes...they would be discussing it. And if someone has the personal power to make that happen I would eat it up just as…

She’s obviously right. But the problem is that nobody on his side of the issue sees this as having been “eviscerated.” He clearly didn’t comprehend the point being made before or after she explained it, so the conservative narrative is just going to be, “here’s this Leftist professor who browbeats people with their…
