  1. I think it’s just Mario doing what we always wanted him to do on that fucking flag pole in the original version of the game. No matter how perfectly you maxed out the jump and damn near went went over the pole, you’d just get meaningless score and boringly go down.

    0 earned runs in his first 9 innings this year.

    28 runs in his last 13 innings.

    The last month has been 4 appearances, 3 innings, 5 hits, 12 walks, 2 HBP, 5 Ks, 12 earned runs. A cool 36.00 ERA and 5.67 WHIP

    The majority of Americans have lived paycheck to paycheck for decades.  It's probably a bit worse now, but I suspect it's also a big driver in the R->D->R->D swings we see over time.  Push back against the incumbent, because "it's the economy, stupid".

    Yes exactly, and that shitty situation was mostly stable when inflation was very low. The relatively high inflation of the past few years hit the people that can’t see past their next paycheck the hardest.

    We didn't get into this debt in an instant, and arguing that any solution must immediately resolve it is not a serious one. There has to be a balanced approach, not just starving the beast so your buttcoins will be worth more

    At this point, getting to (or mathematically close enough to) a balanced annual budget IS a balanced approach. There’s never a politically good time to do it — it just HAS to happen to protect the dollar

    I mean, we know wage growth is outpacing price growth, so what exactly is your point, GRUHorn?

    Thank god, finally.

    The fucking workers over is tough to pin 100% on Biden unless you've got an agenda to push. But then again when haven't you had an agenda, GRU?

    I agree but I missed where he was trying to pin it on Biden? The issue is that a majority of Americans live paycheck to paycheck so they may vote for “change” simply because they’re struggling.

    I know you struggle with math and graphs and whatnot, but operating at the lower end of that range is a problem.  DM for details.

    I actually would appreciate seeing how much of the current deficit is due to reduced revenues and his much is due to increased borrowing costs. If you feel like nerding out a bit

    Socialism!!!!!

    Huh?

    Rapidly increasing interest rates put a lot of stress on banks. It feels like we’ve been lucky that the failures have been contained so far. For all I know bank failures will be what forces interest rates to reverse.

    9mm, 22lr, 5.56, and 308 are must haves, even if you don’t have a weapon chambered in it.

    Then add an alternate pistol cartridge and an odd rifle cartridge - these are what were available during covid. Think 6mm creedmoor, 450 bushmaster, etc.

    Then add what you like. Mine looks like this-
    9mm
    .45
    22lr
    6.5G
    300BO
    5.56
    308

    I can do anything I would ever need to do with that selection and I will never run out of ammo.

    300BO is the shit if you’re into AR pistols and/or suppressors 

    Funny, 22LR is all I’m lacking but I keep telling myself I’ll home make one instead of buying. I need to get my CF Nylon drying setup and build my 3DP90 and Orca already

    As if drone warfare needed to get scarier. Now the night time bombing drones are escorted by FPV kamikazi drones and they’ve been made silent with advance propeller geometry. Without a major change, tanks are completely fucking obsolete
