Texas Football 2025 - Careening Towards the Abyss
Hookem2147 replied to closetojumping's topic in Football
The next positive thing Ryan Niblett and Aaron Butler do on offense will be the first positive thing. It absolutely is not helping that we are having to play those guys meaningful snaps against any opponent on our schedule. I'm not the biggest DeAndre Moore fan, but he is Calvin Johnson compared to Niblett and Butler. -

Ok. So he debated well. Did ever say anything you'd put on a poster? Anything that would resonate with a non-Christian or a non-conservative? -
We're still calling this a war? To quote Animal Mother, "this isn't a war. It's a slaughter." Brave fellows indeed in their jets and tanks blasting the fuck out of a town filled with starving refugees. Who would have thought that sanctions threatened two years into a genocidal attack wouldn't work? I'm sure another round of international condemnation will put an end to the starvation of tens of thousands of homeless children. Shalom! We're really really alarmed now, goddamn you! Really really really alarmed! So alarmed are they that they are rolling out the word genocide as though that was the mark we had to hit before shit was bad for the civilian Gazans being bombed, shot, displaced, and starved for two years. That word has been used as a wicked semantic crutch to make everybody not feel so bad about the slaughter. It's the triple dog dare of international impotence and moral vacuity. Has the UN pronounced it a famine yet so that the NYT and CNN can apply that word? Got to have a quote before you can declare what you see as what you see. Motherfuckers. Haven't seen such bravery since the German Army cleared the Warsaw Jewish ghetto! Thank merciful Jesus that our president applauds!

That's because the regime has made it very clear that there is only one criterion that matters in bidding, contracting, etc.: loyalty and fealty to the regime. Not only does the quality or price of the product or service not matter, "high quality at a good price" is a net-negative, because such an approach presents limited opportunity for grift and enrichment of members of the regime. -

Got it. And not only fair, but absolutely accurate. The speed with which companies shifted from "we should have a DEI program to work towards a more balanced, high-qualityworkforce" to "yes, we're going to bid on that gas chamber project at Auschwitz, and here are the names of all of our employees who have ever said anything disloyal to the regime" is disappointing. Not shocking or surprising, but still disappointing. -

This is actually very true. I work for Lockheed and we had a meeting a few weeks ago to brainstorm ideas on how we should compete vs "distruptor" startups that don't have to go through the rigorous processes that established companies like LM, Raytheon or northrup have to go through during development. These "distruptors" have ties with people within Palantir and with Elon. And there's the threat of the pentagon cancelling contracts next month (beginning of the new fiscal year) and putting them out to bid again. -

This situation kinda reminds me of when Zuckerberg had to testify in front of Congress a few years back, and it became very clear that the old politicians have no idea how social media/the internet works and he could relax and wipe the floor with them. The world is moving so fast and the internet has provided dark corners that most are completely clueless about. Even a 25 year old probably has no idea what HS kids are doing these days. -

The supposed redeeming qualities that I've seen cited by fans are that he was a) a Christian (not an especially extraordinary quality), b) loved his family (also not a low bar), c) was willing to shout his beliefs at anyone who could hear them (only requires a bit of hubris or self-confidence), and d) successfully built a "movement" (admittedly a great skill, but he also had access money). -

I do have one of the little basket filters that fits in the machine -- I fill it with Community medium roast, which is my platonic ideal cup of coffee. Dudes, I'm not a coffee snob and never will be. -

That's the weird part to me though, even dorks in high school got laid. It was just with other dorks. The actual amount of people not getting action had to be vanishingly small, the notion of widespread incel culture is just unfathomable to me. -

Now do climate change / sustainability policies... just kidding not the thread for it, but it's the same thrust of what you are saying. And because these things are seen as corporations perfomance, like I described, it's a signal to not take it all that serious and just wait it out until the winds shifts again. The only thing that really matters is the 10-Q -

I do not like any and all scuttle around Izzy Starck, the Penn State setter who is taking a year off. Lots of rumors her decision to take the year off was not well met by her teammates/coaches and she's going to transfer She'd have 3 years of eligibility left (2024 freshman, 2025 redshirt) Errica Hibben (Texas, 1989-1992) is her mom, so there's the Texas connection - career #7 in solo blocks, #5 in block assists, #3 in total blocks and has the #2 and #4 total blocks in a season record at Texas This would greatly impact whether Harris decides to come to Texas or not - will JE go after her in the portal if she truly enters? It would not be the first player we took from the portal who left her last school due to burnout/mental health issues.
