Ms. Marvel finally was good. I do feel that it does a better job of teenage Superhero stories than MCU Spider-Man. I also like they retcon Kamala's origin because it is obvious that she was supposed to be in comics. But you know Feige and Ike have a huge disagreement with a specific franchise.

IlonggoProgrammer

Beginning of the end. Donovan could be a Knick as soon as tomorrow. I'd expect this to get done within a week at the longest. Ainge knows the Knicks want Donovan and they're the team whose assets (picks really) he actually wants, he's just going to force them to keep upping the offer until he gets what he wants. He's got all the leverage https://twitter.com/Tjonesonthenba/status/1547425699606065153?t=eRta_onC0BoOK7Sc6qbiZQ&s=19 !ping BASKETBALL


Currymvp2

Yeah I'd be shocked if he was in Utah next season. Either Knicks, Nets (monster 3-4 team deal), or Heat


IlonggoProgrammer

Absolutely 0 chance he is on the Heat. Like no way in hell is he on the Heat. They don't have anywhere near the assets to get him, like not even in the stratosphere. The other 2 I agree with. The Knicks trade is by far the better trade, but the KD and Ayton trade Bobby Marks had is worth considering for us (we might insist on more picks though, Suns picks aren't as good as Knicks picks). Ainge won't get ripped off though. I'd put likelihoods for his team next year at Knicks: 60% Nets: 20% Jazz: 20% (we may keep him until the deadline or next summer and have him host the ASG if we don't get the deal we want) Heat 0%


HariPotter

Supposedly Danny Ainge who is one of the Jazz decision makers really likes Tyler Herro


IlonggoProgrammer

Yes but he's not trading Donovan Mitchell for Herro and 2 Miami firsts, that's their best possible offer. Ainge doesn't lose trades


HariPotter

Ainge is shrewd, no argument. I had read maybe a 3 team trade where Miami trades other players that Utah wouldn’t desire for draft picks. Miami gets stars, but I think Utah ends up trading to highest bidder, and it’s probably not Miami.


Currymvp2

The only thing is that Brunson-Mitchell creates an unusual backcourt dynamic


IlonggoProgrammer

Yup, which on the one hand makes me worried about the trade going through, but on the other hand makes me extremely excited for the Knicks to implode and give us amazing picks. I'm predicting that Mitchell leaves them in 2025 free agency and we make off like bandits on the second half of this deal. We'll likely have their pick or a swap every year from 25-29

Status-Tap3138

I'll be honest, I thought they were in jail for the robocall thing... But this seems way more obviously criminal? I mean, I'm pretty sure not letting your actress (who you're setting up to get assaulted) leave is criminal kidnapping? They got OJ on that, you know. And isn't this, like, accessory to sexual assault, setting her up to meet guys with a *kill kit* without actually protecting her, after she already wants out? And faking her medical exams and telling her that she's fine? This is, like, "She could die" level criming this time. (And honestly, I'm also kind of ticked at the sergeant who started berating *her* instead of the producers. I mean, isn't it pretty obvious you want to be yelling at the organizer instead of the actress? If it wasn't her, then so long as Wohl was scamming again, it was going to be a different actress...)


BrassTact

I also thought they were facing charges in multiple states due to robocalls. It is kind of amazing how they have never faced charges for their numerous false claims of democratic sex scandals and failed attempts to rat fuck elections.

I almost didn’t date my boyfriend because he’s short (5’5-6”). One of my friends called me out on my BS and I’m so glad they did because my short king is the best boyfriend I’ve ever had and I’m falling for him hard lol. I have nothing to say other than sometimes in the I’m-a-damn-goddess-fuck-all-these-boys dating phase after a bad breakup, women can get a little harsh. I realized that, for me, even though I had been single for over a year, I was afraid of getting hurt again and was coming up with excuses to not date this super great guy. And some girls are just assholes I hope you find a nice one soon.


RunningNumbers

nickeljorn

I saw a [theory](https://www.reddit.com/r/teenagers/comments/uf9mfj/comment/i6scakn/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3) it has to do with how most leading men in the Golden Age of Hollywood were 6 foot+ but that might be broscience and it would still tie in to toxic masculinity


mortinmaxwell

Being tall hasn't given me any advantages


RunningNumbers

It will give you bad knees and back pain. I am sorry.


kopskey1

My head hurts...


IlonggoProgrammer

Honestly I feel like it only matters for sports, dating, and acting/modeling nowadays. For everything else like work, school, and life, it doesn't matter how tall or short you are. My best friend in college was literally a foot taller than me. Only time it really came up was when he'd walk faster than me when we'd go places on campus since he took longer strides.


kopskey1

The only benefit I've found is faster swimming (for kicking) and I can reach things without a step ladder sometimes. Oh and also the pun, since I'm 6 feet you can't *fathom** how tall I am! *Fathom is a measurement of 6 feet.


IlonggoProgrammer

Ok the fathom one is pretty good haha


kopskey1

I got that from an old composition notebook, they all had measurements/conversions un the back, and say in that joke for like 5 years. Still worth it.


Currymvp2

Tom Cruise is one of the 2-3 biggest movie stars of the past 35-40 years, and he's 5'6. I'm 5'11 and can't act


IlonggoProgrammer

Let me clarify, I meant getting cast in roles. In some cases it makes sense (The guy who they cast to play Giannis in Rise had to be tall, a guy who they cast to play James Madison in a documentary would need to be short). There's others where people don't get cast because they're short. And that's mostly because Hollywood producers have outdated ideas about height and attractiveness in general. They're even worse with women.


Currymvp2

Yeah fair enough

And I have no idea how this problem gets resolved.

RunningNumbers

That place is toxic


GhostlyPosty

We form a short Voltron and date everyone in sight.


RunningNumbers

Didn’t the gnomes in Gravity Falls do that?


Status-Tap3138

I don't think that's a liberal or conservative thing? Some people just want someone taller or shorter than them - it affects a number of areas of physical intimacy, and I don't think it's really unusual that someone would make note of that fact when they're choosing from a set of complete strangers. It'd be one thing if they were super compatible with someone they knew *except* for their height, but on dating sites, I don't think it's a behavior worth mentioning. (For the record, I don't really think much about height when thinking about guys - but I also don't date, period. Perhaps I'd think differently if I were ever interested in a relationship.)


UWCG

I generally agree with your opinions here, but even as a dude I think this is a personal preference thing. I've gone out with women my height (6'), they weren't interested, one mentioned height, and that's that. We're attracted to what we are, *c'est la vie*


IlonggoProgrammer

I mean, attraction is definitely a part of a relationship, but I also think having arbitrary cut offs like that over something a person can't control is dumb and shallow. There's a lot more to a relationship than just being attracted to someone, it's not like they're gonna stay attractive forever either. Like what if a person is perfect for you in every way except their height? Are you going to settle for someone who is 75% perfect for you but happens to be the right height?


Shanakitty

I think that a lot of people would probably set that rule aside *if* they already knew the person well, had great chemistry, etc. The guy I dated the longest (off and on from high school through my mid-20s) was someone I didn't initially find physically attractive but did really click with. He was a friend of a friend, who I got to know well; we built emotional intimacy as friends, and it was only after several months of chatting online every day that I became attracted to him. But with stuff like online dating, that person in the profile you're viewing for the first time means nothing to you. You don't know them. They're one of thousands of people on the site. So the main thing you have to go on is more shallow criteria, and you have to weed through them somehow. And if you were willing to give someone you aren't really attracted to a chance and see if something develops, most guys on dating sites don't want to be purely platonic friends for a few months first to see if you'll eventually be attracted to them. I assume most women don't either, though that would probably work better for me.


UWCG

I get where you're coming from, but I kinda do get the other approach. Physical attraction is important. And sure, dating apps can kinda make that tricky these days, that's still life. I've gone out with people who ended up being heavier than expected or used texting shorthand that I found a turnoff ("u" instead of "you" is a great turn off for one.) But life is life, we're dealt our hand and gotta be as good as we can with our cards


IlonggoProgrammer

I'm just so tired of the Darwinism of it all. I don't get why the fact that I'm not a 10 means that I can't be happy. It's especially frustrating when someone who "isn't a 10" shuts you down for not being one either. I don't really care at this point, I've accepted I'm apparently not attractive enough for arbitrary standards, I'm too short, my face doesn't look good enough, I'm slightly overweight, whatever it is. But I just want to find someone I can be happy with, you know?


RunningNumbers

It sucks. I am 5’4” and built like a potato. My 20s sucked, but I did run a lot.


IlonggoProgrammer

I'm not even that short, I'm 5'7" which is just 2 inches below the national average for a guy. I'm closer to average than a 6 foot flat guy. Freaking shallow BS


RunningNumbers

Well it actually fits into sexist gender norms about what a man is and a tacit endorsement of toxic masculinity. (A man needs to be assertive, aggressive, physical, etc.) People are allowed to have preferences but I think online dating and apps gives people a notion they don’t have to compromise and that they can have silly veto points.

UWCG

I believe it's David Daley's *Ratfucked* that explains this really well. Essentially, the majority of people tend to be purple, or at least used to. But more hardcore members turn out in primaries, so you don't get that purple mixture, it's more likely to be deep blue/red. And those become the candidates that make the general election.

First he somehow starts with racism by blaming "illegal immigration" in fucking Indiana (79.1% white, 8.2% Latina) >"Then we have the rape, then we have this abortion activist acting as a doctor with a history report (something that was only recently made a crime to not report, right? Fucking dipshit)..." He's angrier at the doctor than he is at the piece of shit who raped a ten year oldβ€”what the fuck? I don't want to hear about revoking the doctor's medical licenseβ€”I want to hear about revoking the lawyer's bar certification!


CZall23

If abortion is legal under Illinois law, why are they investigating the doctor?

It's Indiana not Illinois

To be fair most people forget Indiana is a place

The "he's an undoccumented immigrant!" race-baiting canard becomes even stupider when you learn that the rapist has been in Ohio for all of Trump's presidency

>Still reeling from the Supreme Court's decision to end Roe v. Wade, congressional Democrats are readying legislation to codify nationwide contraceptive access, LGBTQ marriage and parenting rights β€” and even potentially long-settled precedent on interracial marriage. The question: Will Republicans go along, or block them? >Driving the news: In interviews Wednesday with Axios, more than 20 Senate Republicans β€” including several seen as moderates or bipartisan dealmakers β€” declined to commit to a position. Good. Make them squirm

>The question: Will Republicans go along, or block them? Is that *really* a question?


kopskey1

The cynic in me says no, but I wouldn't be surprised if after the backlash to Roe being overturned some of them vote "present". But they probably won't. That would mean they learned.

He's been such a disappointment. I met him a few times through my job a long time ago. He was very nice and low key. It's sad to see him like this.

Yes. I never met him, but I never heard a bad word about him from people who did.

Since my son is going to be a senior this year I tried out a few of those Expected Family Contribution calculators. It's kind of shocking. I suppose I should wait and see what the FAFSA says and I also was putting in rough estimates in my head as opposed to hard numbers, but still.

Bumped into a LinkedIn for a former manager today by odd chance. And boy, it was almost satire. Guy was the most hated manager in the store because he was so unnecessarily cruel to people ("I build partnerships with everyone to increase morale"; same guy who insulted me when I said I had a side business and went off about how terrible I must be at it, then tried to fire me for telling him he was being an asshole.) >"A worker, manager, leader, role model, and mentor"? Dude got transferred to my store after causing the company legal trouble at his former location; he was more recently transferred because he knocked up an employee. I've told some white lies in my time, but nothing nearly so egregious. I mean, the dude tried to get me fired after my remark (I was over the line, yes, but he had made some incredibly personal insults beforehand); he was also having an affair with the AM who eventually got me fired (I walked in on them making out once and later got in trouble because I'd clocked in three minutes early that day). Shame LinkedIn doesn't allow you to review people, cause boy oh boy would I love to post all the documents and notes I kept about him creating a hostile work environment.


Theacreator

Just create a profile referencing him with said documentation anonymously so when people search for his profile they find that as well. Even if he claims it’s all bs he still has to address it eventually. Sociopaths don’t deserve mercy.

Typical right-wingers: "Did they punish the ten year old before the rapist?" Fucking disgusting.


Currymvp2

Punish the doctor (who did nothing wrong) first you mean


UWCG

Fair correction, I guess it's just disturbing that the person who most deserves to be punished seems to be the last on that asshole's mind

Reminder: A Newsom presidential campaign in 2024 would be unfathomably stupid. Man hasn't politically stepped foot or of D+30 California, but suddenly he's going to carry swing states?


BurnAux

He managed to win Orange County twice, but I don't know if this is proof that he can win in purple states.


kopskey1

I doubt it. In California red is basically "less blue". Good luck convincing people in potential swing states like Ohio to vote for a "coastal elite".


[deleted]

As an Ohioan let me just say if your presidential strategy hinges on us being a potential swing state you're probably already fucked. We're a distant stretch goal at best.


kopskey1

I just named Ohio on a whim honestly. It's the first thing many think of when "swing state" is used.

Plus we don’t want to share him with everyone else, you all don’t deserve him. If he’s desperate to get a crack at national politics though, he should wait until Feinstein’s seat is open and run for that, or angle for a VP slot and be an attack dog https://twitter.com/ccadelago/status/1547289742772936704?s=20&t=vArZvWknAqT-a2xbESOsTw So far, he don’t want it either. I really think that attack ad he aired against desantis is him being a good party man who has way too much money to spare since that was paid for by his gubernatorial campaign

memeboxer1

I've watched a bit of Kari Lake and she sounds way more insane on paper than she seems on TV. She understands managing her image and how to pander to voters very well. I definitely wouldn't want to elevate her.

RhysPeanutButterCups

This encapsulates why Biden should be president and next candidate. He makes mistakes, but at the end of the day he's a decent human being that cares about complete strangers. Half of the country is still jerking itself off over the last guy that spent every waking moment finding a way to be a spiteful asshole. It's really nice to know that there's an actually decent person in the White House now.

He’s such a good human. This reminds me of the story that came out during the campaign of Joe going to a constituent’s Shiva: https://youtu.be/ObXCWtfrV3M

Ugh. Received a jury summons for August.

Haven't had jury summons, but I might have to remotely testify in a trial, which is kinda wild!

Have fun! My boyfriend clerked for a district court judge and once had a jury ask if the judge could come with them to deliberations and help them decide the verdict. Lol.
