  1. Apparently some will be streamed on Apple TV in addition to BTN+
  2. Simply pointing out that they’ve had a significant increase in workload in recent years due to Amazon. Even often working on Sundays.
  3. Wouldn’t rule out Bouzakis over Ayala in the quarters
  4. Thanks. Looks like the answer to my question is no. Table goes back to 2015. “Mail volume” dropped from 154B to 116B, but “delivery points” increased from 155M to 166.6M. “Career employees” increased from 492K to 525K. So delivery points increased by 7.5%, but career employees increased by less than 7%. “Lake Boss”‘s post was misleading, shocker. No clue where the 80% number is coming from, even compared to the “peak” in your screenshot it’s 45% (and again referring to mail only). And the number of employees is down significantly since then - https://about.usps.com/who/profile/history/employees-since-1926.htm
  5. Residents of red Parkersburg, WV not too happy with DOGE https://www.reuters.com/world/us/doge-job-cuts-shake-trump-voting-west-virginia-town-2025-03-07/
  6. Bondi will redact information with national security concerns. https://www.newsnationnow.com/crime/jeffrey-epstein-files-delivered-pam-bondi/
  7. I can’t imagine Aaron Nagao thought this was part of God’s plan for him
  8. Phipps avenges his loss to Lopes in the other semi at 133 which only has 1 allocation At 141, #33 ranked and 4th seed Carter Bailey of Lehigh will only be wrestling for 7th after losing to #5 seed Kresho of F&M in the quarters then #8 seed Hoyle of Hofstra in the consis At 184, #21 ranked and 2nd seed Hoose of Drexel falls to #7 seed Williams of Navy in the quarters. He’ll be wrestling #1 seed Ebert of Binghampton in the consi-semis, who lost to #4 seed (but #22 ranked) McFarland of Hofstra in the semis. Michael Beard with a tech and a pin en route to the finals
  9. #1 seed and #21 ranked at 125 Anthony Molton of Campbell falls to #5 seed Tyson Lane of Gardner-Webb in the semis looks to be the biggest upset so far
  10. Flo showing one mat of semis on YouTube. #1 seed at 133 Berginc of Army falls to Waterman of Drexel
  11. Never heard of the “grain belt express” until this week but it looks like the Missouri AG has been against it for years (it was first approved in 2011), seems like he’s just trying to get DOGE to stop it because he couldn’t do it on his own. And apparently it’s not necessarily taxpayer funded, it’s a loan guarantee. I’m not a big fan of eminent domain, but that’s a separate issue than waste. But good to see we’ve moved from “we need to balance the budget by cutting $2 trillion in spending” to “we just want to set an example to do something about waste”
  12. Kellanova is not the cereal company. It was split off from the cereal company. Its main brands are Cheez Its, Pringles, Pop Tarts, and Eggo.
  13. Didn’t Little have concussion protocol against Barr too?
  14. Looks like he’s the winner!
  15. Case in point: here is DOGE bragging about saving $11k per year to water plants. But they’re saying DOGE will do it, so even though they claim it will be “free of charge” someone will still be getting paid for it.
  16. Talk of this appears to be picking up on PSU forums
  17. I literally just gave some suggestions, focus on the largest purchases first or whether cards are spending a lot more on certain categories vs others used by people in similar positions. I’m also on board with cancelling cards that aren’t being used, but as I said initially that doesn’t save much money. Which is really my overall point, trimming employee credit card expenses isn’t going to save us the taxpayers all that much. So if that’s what DOGE is celebrating less than 2 months into the presidency, it leads me to believe that they’ve already run out of low-hanging fruit and I’m skeptical they will actually find $2 trillion or whatever of “waste, fraud and abuse”
  18. I do agree with this (for $5MM of the $8MM claimed). They weren’t “turning mice transgender,” but it did seem like most of the studies were focused around seeing the impact of procedures that were used for trans folks.
  19. Except he didn’t state that, he specifically said he thought politics “was not playing into this at all.” That’s the lie…
  20. Yes that is the lie. It is the exact opposite of the answer given by what they claim is the “source”
