They don't have time to make home cooked meals, but they have time to sit on the sofa binging Netflix

They don't have the capacity to home cook a meal, but somehow they have the capacity to navigate obtaining every possible welfare handout that they can get.

Liberals once again proving they think so lowly of poor people, that they can't even expect them to be self sufficient enough to go to the grocery store or follow a simple 20 minute recipe they find on Google.

It also shows Massie was losing way support before this election as his numbers continued to go down.


Maybe. But 2020 is a weird year because of covid bullshite, mail in ballots, etc

You could also argue his numbers went down because he was a popular incumbent and there wasn't really a viable primary challenger until this year, so voters didn't really have anything motivating them to show up at the polls for the primaries.
Or just low voter turnout in 2024 because it was a party primary with a popular incumbent that had no viable challenger. The dems didn't even run a candidate against Massie in the general in 2024.

Now compare it to 2026 where MAGA made this a primary race with national attention and a viable challenger with big money being spent to back him. Of course voter turnout is going to be way higher.
We were all against it when Bama signed Bediako after he'd already signed an NBA contract and played in the G-League.

Its hypocritical to be in favor of LSU doing the same. Especially after Bediako's lawsuit to regain eligibility ultimately failed. I don't want college sports to become a fall back option for players who went pro and couldn't cut it there, so they come back to try to play college ball again.

Once you sign with a professional league team, then you shouldn't be eligible to play in the NCAA anymore. We'd all feel that way if it was UNC, Kansas, and Florida loading up with former pro players.

This was stupid….

Kid wasn’t taunting, etc…

I’d be pissed


His teammates should be pissed at him for costing them a win because of his ego and selfishness. No reason to be mad at the officials considering they already gave the kid a warning for doing the same thing at another event earlier in the day. He was given a 2nd chance and didn't learn his lesson.

ETA: never mind. I saw the video from the RG3 tweet posted a few replies above mine. That's not taunting. bullshite call from officials

Galadriel now, if Cate Blanchett is too old


Cate Blanchett has aged very well. She could definitely still play Galadriel. Plus they could always use CGI for de-aging effects if needed

The only way you’d avoid that then is to have every Super Bowl in Florida, California, NOLA, Houston, Vegas, or Phoenix. Every other NFL city has average temps that would be on par with Nashville or colder
quote:

Except Nashville in February sucks. All indoors, which for the most part is fine, but you still have to walk to those places in the cold.


Nashville's average daily low temp is like 32 in February. Its not like you're talking about some brutal cold temps that'll be unbearable to be outdoors in. Its about a 10 degree average difference compared to places like Dallas or the northshore area outside of NOLA. Only about a 5 degree difference compared to Atlanta.

Are they getting a new stadium or is it "just their turn'?


New stadium opens next year.

But after this, Nashville should end up like NOLA and Miami in regular rotation for hosting Super Bowls. The stadium, hotels, convention center, and entertainment venues are all centrally located within about a 1 mile stretch. Nashville is even more convenient than NOLA when it comes to fans being able to walk to everything.

If Black athletes participate in the boycott, it could deplete rosters for powerhouse football and basketball programs across the Southeastern Conference and Atlantic Coast Conference.


Lets see how many 18-22 year old athletes are going to turn down 6 or 7 figures to play college football or basketball so they can listen to the NAACP.

They can't all just go sign with Big Ten schools. Only so many roster spots and NIL funds to go around

B) no main characters from the original trilogy would be trotted back out

I think Galadriel had a part in that story. Plus they'd have Thranduil and Dain from the Hobbit films as part of this. And I guess even though she doesn't exist in the books, they could bring back Tauriel somewhere in this story line.
If Peter Jackson wants to make more LOTR films, then why not do the war in the north? Wouldn’t they already have the rights since it was mentioned in the LOTR books and appendicies?

Win or lose, whoever is running Pratt's campaign is absolutely crushing it. Its a modern day miracle that a Republican actually has a chance to win a mayoral race in Los Angeles.

Maryland: $61,254
Hawaii: $59,222
New York: $57,919
California: $57,193
Alaska: $54,655


All of which rank high on the list of states with the most expensive cost of living.

Maryland - 7th highest cost of living
Hawaii - 2nd highest
New York - 4th highest
California - highest
Alaska - 13th highest


Meanwhile, Louisiana actually ranks 5th lowest for cost of living

When I was in high school, we had 2 vice principals. And one of them was also the basketball coach and taught a couple of PE classes.

Pretty cool for the Music City. I guess if you want to host, just build a crazy expensive stadium.


Nashville is a perfect location because everything is centrally located. Stadium, hotels, Broadway, convention center, and venues for corporate sponsors to host their SB parties are all within about a 1 mile stretch.

Everyone talks about how walkable everything is in NOLA as a reason the city is a good location for Super Bowls and other major events, but Nashville is probably even more convenient for walking to everything. And probably less likely to get mugged or have your wallet pickpocketed.

I don’t think workers comp payments kick in until after a week or 2 of missed work.

Her employer is probably still paying her in the mean time because they’re trying to take care of their employee and not leave her without a paycheck.

I highly doubt that an employer with an HR department would try to sweep it under the rug to avoid notifying their workers comp insurance company because then they run the risk of the insurance company denying a claim for failing to provide prompt notice of an incident. Then the employer is on the hook instead of their insurance company. Employer pays for workers comp insurance for a reason.
