Well, it is extremely unlikely that anybody is going to reach into a woman's bra to steal her wallet.

So, Exxon and other companies have their buildings engineered by some guy in India who’s just viewing the whole building on Zoom or something? And they basically have calculated that the 75% reduction of costs from hiring an engineer who can’t view the building in person is worth the 1% risk (or whatever they’ve calculated the risk to be) that this will cause the whole building to collapse and will cause Exxon to face a huge lawsuit?


Ah, that’s a pleasant thing to know the next time I walk into a building.

I can understand why people like the idea in theory, but I’m not really sure how it’s supposed to work in practice.

Usually, tariffs are on a physical object. Like impose a tariff on a pear or something.

I don’t know how you tax something intangible like an HR department. Are you going to come up with some legal definition of what an HR department even is?

Aside from that, you’d have to make the tariffs really, really high to make them worthwhile. That’s one of the problems that Trump’s tariffs already face. These companies are paying these factory workers in third world shitholes at most 1/10 as much as they’d have to pay US workers. So you’d have to make the tariffs like at least 1,000% in order to bring factory labor home, maybe something like 700% if you take into account the cost of shipping the goods. And for call centers, the businesses don’t have to take shipping costs into account.

Wiki says the city is 70.97% black. Although I probably would have assumed that a rural black community would be less dangerous than an urban black ghetto.

God doesn't exist. But dogs do exist.

Well, he was pretty much the worst hangman ever, at least if you don't think that he was doing a bad job on purpose. Many of his hangings were a prolonged and nasty affair, especially his hanging of Streicher.

This guy had 31,000 tweets. The news station really had to dig through his tweets for hours to find those ancient tweets. Even if they somehow read one tweet per second, it would have taken them 8 hours to find those tweets. Realistically speaking, few people can probably read tweets at a speed faster than about one tweet every 7 seconds. So it probably took the news station something like 56 hours to find those tweets.


Unless you’re in a public facing job, it’s unlikely that anybody is going to spend that much time digging through your tweet history.


Now, I guess if you created a Twitter account at age 15 and you’ve only made something like 10 tweets on it, then somebody might dig up your Tweets at age 15. But if you’ve made 31,000 tweets, your tweets as a 15 year old almost certainly would get hidden in your sea of tweets unless you get a super public facing job.


In fact, I’m not sure if anybody would have digged this much through his Tweet history if he had been hired for almost any NBA announcing job except for Portland. Portland is basically the wokest city in the US and was the center of Antifa.

The Asian tweet is the only one that can even be considered slightly offensive. (Emphasis on slightly.) I can’t believe that people care about tweets that use the word “slut” and “whore”. I’ve heard women use the terms slut and who’re all the time.

It's already been rumored that USC had conversations with the SEC. They were desperately seeking any out to the PAC-12.

It's well known that he's blown 3 different 3-1 leads. But it's less well-known that he's blown 4 other 3-2 leads, even aside from the 3 3-1 leads.


According to Google AI, nobody else has blown more than two 3-2 leads. Pat Riley and Greg Popovich are the only 3 coaches it's mentioned as having blown 2 different 3-2 leads.
