Go Irish. Happy to get the playoff monkey off our backs.

Yeah...and they'd keep dying even if you did what they were still doing only it'd be worse for so much longer.

I usually like your takes but you're just saying "children dying=bad."

Everyone knows that. But you also have to accept that there will be short term pain for a longer term gain. If you disagree then I'd like to hear solutions that you have to fix it without this. I mean- with these fixes an IMF loan is back on the table that could help alleviate some poverty potentially, etc. Economists are not the end all be all but again, the data is trending in the right direction despite the pain it takes to get back to good. There is no magic fix for decades of neglect here.

And who said he is good? I don't personally like the guy for a bunch of his takes. But if this particular bit of policy is righting the ship then it should be lauded despite his personality or other flaws. And even then that is quite a...not sure how to phrase this politely, "lame" take that every libertarian ever doesn't care about people's suffering. I've read personal writings of his and it seems he believes that people are better off when they can provide for themselves without the state doing it for them. Now, I personally think that is bollocks but given where Argentina is with their massive government and massive debt he has far more room to have that attitude and push his ideas before they go too far. But again- if it's just his personal beliefs it doesn't mean that "does not give a shit about people suffering"- it's that he believes they won't once the state gets out of their way.

Seriously man- there is room for nuance here.

53% is not "around 60". Moreover,

today Milei has a stable approval rating of 50 percent.

Apparently even some of those in poverty agree with his reforms.

I think people who only started paying attention to Argentina since he got elected should review the past few decades of history.

Im also not saying he's great but he is at least making some needed reform. We'll see if it continues. He definitely has an attitude and zeal that could push it too far but at this point it has helped.

Cap FWW already.

Looks super generic. Pretty uninspiring.

One of the most unlucky teams in terms of injuries. How theyre still so victorious despite that is beyond me.

Luigi even said that in the manifesto- economic protest isn't viable in this system. He's basically right.

Im not saying theyre activists. I have and generally theyre uninterested (obviously) but would learn if they took the time to actually vote. That or their opinions line up with more left of center things but they aren't represented by that because they don't vote. (The experience is probably different given you live in a blue area and I in a purple one.)

Even if they don't, they should vote regardless. It's a civic duty.

And yet everyone here bitches that the dems aren't left enough, etc. Imagine if non voters got off their asses and actually voted in the primaries.

I don't buy that nothing would change. Don't buy that at all.

Guarantee he's holding a lot of btc and just wants to see the line go up.

Problem is finding one and an unlocked bootloader so you can get rid of all the Google crap.

That's entirely the point. You said they shouldn't be allowed to. They can.

It's entirely relevant because that's the point of your previous post where you said "the state shouldn't be allowed to do this."

 

Not pretty but it worked.

 

Anyone surprised? Saw that loss coming.

Brilliant coaching to run all 3 downs and trust a long field goal. Playing not to lose surely is the best strategy.

Bengals win! (self.bengals)
 

Who would've thought.

 

We're down Robinson and Murphy I believe due to yellow card accumulation. Not feeling great about that.

 

Anyone else hate this? I don't want a dumbed down bar. If Im on the homepage, I want to know. Same as if I'm on a subpage.

This is in reference to Mozilla changing the URL to ALWAYS show only the domain. Absolutely terrible IMO. As for the double tall menu now? That is mostly fine.

At least give me an option to see the full url.

 

Maybe it's just me but I feel like Urban Artifact beers were better when they weren't filtered like they are now. Feel like there is a dramatic loss of flavor compared to the pulpy goodness it was before.

 

Great win. Let's go FCC!!

 

Looks like we picked up a safety, resigned Sample to a 3 year deal, and released Mixon after getting that RB from the Colts.

How we feeling about more signings? Feel like we're short on O-line yet again but maybe they have plans.

 

On to face Monterey and meet Vasquez again.

Go FCC!
