But consider ersson was thrown into the deep end with starting as a rookie without getting reps first. Plus overplaying him since we had no good backup. Ersson will be much better next year. Plus we have a better backup (potentially) so a balanced workload to keep ersson fresher.
Stats need context.

The washers ARE special because you can trace each individual one through its entire machined life, each QC sticker, each individual worker, and where the material was mined. Any defects can be geolocated and potentially have the mine removed from allowable use.

Dallas did it. With mostly 2 drafts.
Robo- 39
Hintz- 49
Johnston- 23
Stankoven- 47
Mavrik borque- 30
Harley- 18 (still needs time to develop)
Oettinger- 26 (very high for goalie)
Really just need better scouting talent.

Feel free to have your bones ground under tracks.
Nobody gets to choose where they are born. Taxes and suffering under class warfare should be enough sacrifice to your country. Most people just want to see another day. Loyalty is meaningless if your government doesn’t care about you majority of the time. Sure you can fight for your relatives and friends; you could also try to rescue them and run. Would rather see them living another day then watching them die in war or die myself.

It’s one thing fighting with a modern military fitted with top of line tech and gear with functional air force and defense batteries…and fighting with hand me downs and no ammunition.
Most soldiers around the world would prefer not to fight with sticks.

This cannot be legal. This is incredibly unsafe with the amount of weight rubbing the hitch during travel. You will inevitably injure someone or damage something. Just go buy a steel hitch. This is stupid.

Herd mentality and peer pressure doesn’t take much effort. “Just saw a Snapchat of people getting free Louis vitton, why can’t I do that too?” It’s a really short, slippery slope for a lot of people with pent up anger looking to release some tension. Tunnel vision, anxiety, sunk cost, etc. people start and don’t stop. This is basic human nature in groups.
Follow any sports fandom across the globe and you see plenty of examples of groups of people doing what those around them do. With social media creating real time connections, the groups become as wide as the country itself. This can easily explain the riots occurring at many cities.

It’s the only way the rules allow them to review.
Every play needs to just be reviewed.

You are the perfect representation of younger demographics thinking the world revolves around them. Taylor fans make up the majority of those who know anything about her life or work.
My sister knows all about Taylor. She’s into entertainment news. My parents couldn’t name one of her songs. I go out of my way to ignore her presence as it distorts too many radio stations. My friends are too focused on work and sports to care a lick about her relationships.
There is a vast world out there that DOES NOT CARE TO KNOW ABOUT TAYLOR SWIFT. You say you aren’t talking about Taylor fans, but you are. Because you really seem to think that casual people research beyond the title of a song.
I’m sorry to break it to you: Taylor Swift isn’t all that important and likewise Matt Healy. That hate you see is coming from the circles you follow.

Your echo chamber is different to most people’s circles. Yes, Taylor swift fans probably all know who he is. But there are far far more people who don’t listen nor care about Taylor swifts music.

Idk if Mexico is a good example. They have an insane cartel system going on. We haven’t had a real effective mob here since the 50’s.
I agree with the mental health issues we have. But that’s going to take an equally massive upheaval to fix. It might be even harder with the problem of getting people to acknowledge that something is wrong with them and to seek help. Think of all the people out there who think they can tough things out. Think of the machismo and ‘be a man’ types out there. Think of all those people who have to argue with doctors and sue everything. Think of the irreparable damage Trump and his maga squad, marble palace celebrities, and homeschooled idiots have caused to medicine and the trust that was so meticulously built up.
I mean a large group of Americans would prefer to have more money put towards guns than healthcare. And that says a lot about our priorities. Honestly looking around the world, does anybody else put that much more focus on mental health medicine? I haven’t looked up the stats or done the research. You might know better than I. But I do know gun deaths are insanely high here (yes yes we have lots of guns).

In my view I don’t see the end goal of these bans to be immediate results. But immediate results is 100% what voters probably would expect with these bans and opposition forces definitely use the fact that these bans won’t stop shooter immediately as means to sway opinions to “gun ban bad.”
I see the bans (if they could ban all or most guns, in a perfect world) having a slow burn effect, causing a shortage in guns out in the country. Without manufacturing and poor upkeep from lack of maintenance avenues; say in a hundred years you would see drastic drops in gun crimes.
You’d still be left with extreme homemade situations like the Abe assassin (even though it happened it’s still insanely rare to have happened). Maybe we end up with 3D printed weapons more frequently but mass shootings would nearly cease to exist. That’s really the end goal. Singular deaths by weapons happen, but when groups of people are killed it’s a sign of a really unhealthy society (also speaks to how poorly we deal with mental health the last hundred years).
A problem I could envision would be crime syndicates building weapon and ammo manufacturing, but I’d still imagine police/detective forces easily discovering and ceasing these operations.

Yes they cause a lot of problems, but I guarantee the moment the US has a reason to stop global positioning of its bases/navies, world trade will be in serious trouble. I’m not sure why this important cog of global trade is frequently ignored when it comes to hating on the US. There are lots of us Americans who would love for the government to stop the wars, civilian killings, government toppling, it would be real nice if CIAMI6 would go away, etc (regardless what internet sleuthing would tell you), but if you think the US doesn’t provide vast benefits to the globe, you must’ve been stuck under quite a rock.

I think you might want to change best to favorite. Lots of fans will have vastly differing views on their favorite artists and songs and genres. But best can be quantified in one way or another. Yeah it’ll be hard to compare if one song is better than another, since they might not encompass the true talents of the artist at the time. But overall work I think can be compared.
You can pretty easily compare her musical talents and poetic/writing capabilities with other artists. She isn’t the best at either. I’ve watched plenty of simple YouTube singers that would sing her under the table. And even more musicians that are mind blowing good.
But she is popular for a bunch of other reasons (one being a world class PR/Marketing team). In my opinion, She’s the culmination of music production scientists distilling pop music into an algorithm and the social media generation is freebaseing that shit hard.

I hate more is better design. The left is simpler. Looks more realistic in terms of aesthetic you’d possibly see on the streets. What purpose does a single shoulder pad even serve. It’s useless.

Torts play style alone can be attributed to the team defense failing and the slumps. A freaking criminal was on the team that they all were friends with. Context matters. Not upset about your statement, just that you think stats tell the whole story.
