Wild the amount of money spent bring back an extict species instead of trying to protect the ones we already have.

Its like trying to justify ruining the environment and driving species to extinction as no biggie because we can just have a do-over through the power of science.

Oh no, its illegal to use the military for domestic police work? Deploying the National Guard would be a "faux pas"?

Well, I'm sure that will stop him for sure!

I used to work for a company that had the right idea. We brought our work trucks home, and our work day started when we turned the key, and ended when we got home.

Had to be at a job for 8 and it was an hour away? You were paid for that. Only had a job 5 minutes away? Enjoy the extra sleep in time and the short commute home.

Now, this is way different than an office job that is stationary, but there is definitely a conversation to be had about it. If nothing else, it may have more companies going back to taking WFH seriously again instead of needlesslt forcing people back into office spaces in order to prop up the commercial real estate sector.

Remember when we used to never hear about school board meetings because they were dry, boring school board meetings?

Yeah, I want to go back to that.

He was right.

The years start coming, and they simply do not stop coming.

Its too bad that its so hard to find a man aged 18-35 who is willing to show us his Rick and Morty impression at the drop of a hat.

Imagine doing over a decade of schooling and training, spending thousands of dollars to become a platic surgeon, making really, really good money and generally be respected by most people.

Imagine that not being enough and you throw it all away in an attempt at being a fucking tiktok star.

Back in 2016, two trades happened that seemed like seismic events in the NHL that... never really impacted any of the teams involved in the way that they thought it would:

  • PK Subban is traded from the Montreal Canadiens to the Nashville Predators in exchange for Shea Weber
  • Taylor Hall is traded from the Edmonton Oilers to the New Jersey Devils in exchange for Adam Larsson

At the time, these felt like franchise defining moves that would have immediate impacts, but ultimately didn't really move the needle in any significant way.

  • Taylor Hall wont a Hart and helped the Devils get to the playoffs for the first time in six years, but then missed the playoffs for the next two and was traded to Arizona in 2019 for Kevin Bahl, Nick Merkley, Nate Schnarr, and the pick that NJ used to get Dawson Mercer
  • Adam Larsson did help the Oilers on defense, but ultimately never got farther than the 2nd round with Edmonton. He was taken by Seattle in the 2021 expansion draft
  • PK helped Nashville make the Stanley Cup finals his first year with his new club, but fell short of winning it all, losing to the Penguins in six games. He was traded to New Jersey in 2019 to free up cap space.
  • Shea Weber's time in Montreal was plagued by injury. He did help the Habs to their first Stanley Cup Finals appearance in nearly 30 years with their Cinderella run in the 2021 playoffs, but lost the series in five games. Weber has been LITRetired ever since that run.

How did you guys feel about those trades when they happened? Ambivalence? Excitement?
