America's dipshits don't know what's going on and they aren't going to take it anymore!

So to be a good chiropractor you just have to not do chiropractic.

I don't even know what I'm hoping for in regards to the Musk-Trump regime, but "senior military brass enforces constitutional order" is neither the best or worst thing that can happen.

45-47 is 2 games below .500 because you'd have to win your next 2 games to be .500.

My fucking car insurance company just mailed me a check out of nowhere because they were so flush when no one was driving. Student loans were turned off. The child tax credit was allowing us to afford finishing our basement.

I'm not saying that Joe Biden is personally to blame for this, but it was his job to explain why it happened and who was to blame. His smoothed out brain made that impossible.

Seriously, how fucking dare you come back with this argument after a god damn year of yelling that people don't understand why they think what they think!

Im not personally blaming Joe Biden for this! Im pointing out the cause of the consensus that people's budgets were hurting! I broadly agree with you that people's perceptions of the economy were out of line with reality, I'm just pointing out that they noticed when they stopped having as much money

Will: "People don't actually understand why they believe what they say they believe, they take their cues from broad consensus"
Me: "People noticed when inflation, student loans, and monthly payments reduced their budgets by 4 figures monthly under Joe Biden"

Free money got turned off and inflation hit while Joe Biden was president. Idiot voters are just making a dumb correllation in their minds, they're not thinking specifics. Honestly what I'm saying fits pretty neatly into your "vibes" theory, it's just that you can't handle a critique...

Oh, so the "everything is about vibes" guy is now getting into nitty gritty details about the exact timelines?

Yes people think "welfare' is bad, except when it helps them. Are you an infant?

Turns out it would have been nice to have a president who could speak in complete sentences and could properly blame republicans for shutting that stuff down and corprations for the inflation. But you yelled at everyone who thought that so...

After Biden became president, I personally had over $1,000 monthly taken out of my budget during a period of relatively high inflation. I don't personally blame Biden, but voters are doofuses and noticed the correllation.
comment in response to
post
Hey will, any chance that a period of relatively high inflation that combines with the complete shutdown of the social safety net (turning student loans back on, ending expanded child tax and dependent care credits, covid era unemployment) could cause people to get a little freaked out by prices?
comment in response to

safety net. Instead we were force fed a president who couldn't speak coherently. We tried to tell them in 2020 how this was going to go.
comment in response to
post
for "blaming" Biden, which is so unproductive. I'm not personally blaming him. I'm pointing out the corellation all our dumb voters started making. In that moment it was very important to have a president who could eloquently blame inflation on corporate greed and republicans for turning off the...

Like, I'm a little bit sympathetic to Stancil in that I agree people's perceptions of the 2023-2024 economy were out of line with reality. But it's so dumb that we're all arguing why. We know why! Because the money got turned off while Biden was president. Whenever I say this people get mad at me...
comment in response to
post
I understand how we got there, but as we've seen the average voter is an idiot. "Where did all my money go?" was a perfectly predictable response, and we didn't have a president who could connect the dots.
comment in response to
post
The inflation we did have seemed like it was even higher than it was because it coincided with the end of the expanded child tax credit and turning student loans back on. Personally, those two items took a $1,000 permonth bite from my budget during a period of relatively high inflation.
comment in response to

It really seems like everyone has just totally memoryholed why everyone's perception of the economy went to shit halfway thru Biden's term. All the covid era safety net ended, and we had a president who couldn't speak in complete sentences to blame the right people (Republicans and corporations)

Also, if my salary was measured in the hundreds of thousands and I was halfway thru my career, I would my net worth was measured in millions.

The additional context here is that for the past 16 months, Will has at no point said anything that makes it seem like he thinks what's happening in Gaza is that big a deal.

Order of operations on October 11, 2023:
1) Bombs made in America start falling on innocent children.
2) Will tweets "The organized left in america won't survive this".

The words are right fucking there man. It's the plainest text you've ever seen. Will Stancil views the bombing of Palestine through the lens of how it affects his personal axes to grind.
comment in response to

Nothing in that thread makes my interpretation bullshit. The day Israel started bombing children indescriminately, Will's thoughts immediately went to "this is bad for my online enemies".

As I understand the second apron you can't aggregate multiple players to make outgoing salary match incoming. I think they could have traded KAT for Durant because they make basically the same, so any Durant trade became impossible once they dealt KAT.

It's literally impossible for them to get Durant now because they aren't allowed to aggregate salaries.

Taylor buying it all back would HAVE to be a condition of winning arbitration. They bought those shares assuming it would lead to full control.
