Weave

This is the difference between scorers and the right kind of players.

At medium well you’ll have to suffer through alot of flabby grey meat to get to it.

Probably describes the sabres adequately. Like tepid water.

He’s not supposed to. Trump is very vocal in his desire to have a say in interest rates though. @Hank. Interest rates are determined by the the federal reserve. They are an appointed, bipartisan board that uses interest rates to control economic growth. Inflation went high because every country in the world printed and gave out billions of dollars during the covid shutdown to avoid an economic meltdown. Every country in the world knew it would result in inflation but deemd it more important to send out all that money to avoid a collapse. The federal reserve raised rates in the aftermath of this to slow down the resulting inflation. The US actually saw lower inflation than the rest of the industrialized economies. And now that inflation is getting back under control, rates are coming back down. The last thing we need is some yahoo who thinks he knows better than trained, experienced economists mucking it up.

I’ve wanted to wade into this discussion and give some examples of good things I’d love for him to accomplish, but honestly I just don’t have any faith that the platform Trump has run on will benefit me positively. And certainly won’t benefit my children, and that weighs heavily on me. Tariffs, mass deportations leaving us even shorter on workers than we already are, putting thousands of government workers on the unemployment line, gutting overtime pay rules, pressuring bold moves around economic policy. These all sound like recessionary paths to me. Couple that with policy that will continue the global warming slippery slope, and put even more policy in the hands of corporate robber barons and my children don’t seem to have a shot at the life I had. No room for optimism here. He’s gonna have to show me something I just don’t believe he cares about. I am going to be one miserable mother ***** if this guys plan hurts the economic growth we’ve seen the last 4 years and I have to postpone my retirement.

Agreed. With the condition that it ends with Russia not keeping Ukrainian land. Rewarding them will only embolden them and others.

Lisan Al Gaib!

If that isn’t a sobering statement, I don’t know what is.

During the Bils drought I stepped way back. Ive taken a few steps back in, but I don’t have that burning need to see my team win a championship anymore. I am perfectly content to watch the ridiculously good entertainment we see every Sunday. Josh Allen is absolutely worth every minute in front of the television. He is truly a one of a kind talent. This fanbase is going to be in mourning when Josh’s career is finished. I hope they are fully appreciating it in the moment. They do seem to be.

This is why I admire you. You set expectations for yourself and then go out and nail it.

Per Matthew Fairburn, The Sabres are 0-4 this season when they have a chance to get above .500. This team does not appear able to rise to the challenge.

Spoken lime someone with a guaranteed government check every month.

U mad bro?

This thread just might make me welcome the loss.

Nah. Pretty sure your mom said that, and Pontiac was a euphemism.

Bite your tongue. I need the next 4 years to continue as it has or I am not retiring in 5 yrs.

Diaspora sounds like a title to an HBO dystopian series.

Mine has been spontaneously rebooting recently. Time to look under the couch cushions and spend a little money for a new one. This one is at least 5-6yrs old. At least.

We were never really concerned about whether you’d come back.

I guess I have something to occupy my time this evening while I ignore the game.

You must have ended up behind my wife. I have given up trying to modify that behavior. I apologize for her. Sorry.

Do the Blues still play a fairly heavy game? We are cooked if they do. Without Tage we don’t have anything remotely looking like a 1st line, and we don’t have spare personnel to plug in and play a different style of game to make up for it.

Lots of info here. Thanks all. I suppose I just need to download the app and look, but the other thing that keeps me holding onto twitter is government agency accounts. For example, national weather service, space observatories, NY thruway authority and NY canal system, utility companies, things like that. Any services along those lines moved at all? I hate duplication and don’t want multiple versions of Twitter functionality. Just trying to get a read on where other services are at.

And thanks SDS for the assist. Now everyone has to put up with me a little longer.
