Well captalists sleep easier when they have a “labor” president who broke the railroad strike last year. All they did was print some scary news stories for a month, get the public opinion whipped up and suddenly the Dems were happy to play Reagan.

Yeah. I didn’t watch DVC in NY last year. NY definitely didn’t lose this trade, MN seems like lower odds of this being a good tradeoff for them. Unless Randle is exactly the same quality and fits the team, or they get super lucky on a mid first round pick, they basically gave away a big piece for multiple less good pieces.

But perhaps exactly what was (unfortunately) needed;

Don’t assume institutions and those in power or authority are anything more than fallible efforts. Ever.

My first thought was MN won, but didn’t know Randle was hurt. Randle coming off injury and surgery is a pretty big gamble to take trading one of the top 3pt shooters in the entire league, forget among centers. In a league where it’s more valued each year, giving that up is enormous.

Divencezo, yes shooting 3 is great and a scrappy defender is high value but now who plays with/off Rudy?

Towns was kind of the odd man out in the playoffs with MN, his skills are wild but can see why MN let him go.

Healthcare, education, transportation…it’s like the opposite of the Life of Brian scene about the Romans, talking about what they brought areas they took control of.

No, you see the authoritative expert on beer drinking, “innerbody.com” is the source so it’s legit.

“just have AI do it”

We’re 5 years from someone proposing “smartwall displays” where the entire wall is your display. No more messy cables or creaky mounting brackets. They’ll, of course also have removed the on/off button and you won’t get to control the volume, but just think of the stimulation!

Fahrenheit 451’s technology just around the corner of the next shitty planned community coming soon near you.

If what the article quotes for the CEO and CHRO are accurate those dispel any of that defense I’d think.

AI…gag

The article says it’s not illegal? Would hope to fuck there are some basic boundaries by law.

I’ve seen some of that. Big capital running scared. Kamala is pretty centrist, would not be surprised at all if she bows to their pressure, same stuff with Israel.

The crazy part is the pharmacy retailers are now closing hundreds of locations nationwide. For those who have a reliable mail order maybe that works but there are so many situations when you “absolutely positively have to get a prescription on short noticeand can accept no substitutes” retail has to exist.

Hope mark Cuban can make a dent.

Win+ca+enter = calculator

Holy shit, I had no idea CVS owned Aetna. That kind of vertical should never be allowed, that’s insane. Man I hope our kickass FTC chair Lina Kahn gets 4 more years, she’s been doing yeoman’s work against 40 years of no enforcement, hope she gets to keep digging into this crap.

Recommend high quality short stories. Edgar Allen Poe has a collection that is some of the most thrilling, mysterious and fun, imaginative, adventurous, grotesque and other depending on the story. https://www.amazon.com/Edgar-Allan-Poe-Complete-Collection/dp/1453643141

Robert Louis Stevenson was also a fantastic writer of short stories.https://www.amazon.com/Complete-Short-Stories-Robert-Stevenson/dp/030680882X

I like short stories sometimes as I can’t commit to a larger read.

There are specific language in NLRA and other related labor bills defining terms of engagement, contracts, etc.

Just like the rest of business, they mean something. “Best and Final” doesn’t mean the last offer ever…it just means federal mediators might get involved. Corps won’t pay realistically and more and more are using mediators as a scapegoat so they don’t have to be the one to tell their board their approach is shit and won’t fly in a contact.

Think of all the “extra” bolts that competent mechanics and engineers would put in airplane doors, you’d hurt margins…slightly. Hard no from Board.

Uh or people could not subject themselves to whatever shit commercials Sinclair will throw in their games;

“A 2019 study in the American Political Science Review found that “stations bought by Sinclair reduce coverage of local politics, increase national coverage and move the ideological tone of coverage in a conservative direction relative to other stations operating in the same market”.[4][5] The company has been criticized by journalists and media analysts for requiring its stations to broadcast packaged video segments and its news anchors to read prepared scripts that contain pro-Trump editorial content, including warnings about purported “fake news” in mainstream media, while Trump has tweeted support for watching Sinclair over CNN and NBC.[6][7][8][9][10]”

The blazers aren’t going to play memorable basketball for a long time and subjecting oneself to Sinclair’s toxic shit isn’t worth that.
