  1. Yeah, people get risk off when WW3 is looming

    April almost always the start of "sell in may and go away".

    Going to be choppy for a while - sticking with the stables ratio I have right now vs trying to catch that knife.

    The parents of a school shooter have both been sentenced to 10 years. Enough evidence to show they ignored all the warning signs and even bought the gun

    Ethan Crumbley: Parents of Michigan school gunman sentenced to at least 10 years

    It's not even complicated - law should be:

    1. You are responsible for ensuring your firearms are stored correctly (locked, not loaded, stored separately from ammunition)
    2. Minors can't legally own firearms - they belong to the parent or guardian and rule #1 applies

    Mitigating factors for sentencing:

    1. Could a minor access those firearms
    2. Could anyone with a history of mental illness (including undiagnosed but reported directly to you) access those firearms
    3. Could an intruder easily access those firearms

    They got the minimum as far as I'm concerned.  The lowest bar should be "my kids can't access these and a burglar would need a lot of time to find / access them".

    It's called personal responsibility - they didn't have any and other people's kids died. Absolutely tragic.

  3. Truth Social is a meme coin. Four milly in rev, doesn't come close to turning a profit and usage is barely worth mentioning at the ipo valuation.

    It has the Trump name along with people trading attention and emotion, and that combined with a low float means you could see crazy volatility and high valuations (backed by nothing) in the short term.

    Honestly I'd short it with all the money I have if Trump supporters weren't so fanatical.

    But bottom line the likely market value in six months combined with the cliff means it does very little for him in his current predicament.

    Basics. If you’re the end player in the wall you don’t split and jump out - you cover the post as set out by the keeper. I thought it was cowardly - he should have faced up and taken the hit

    Yeah, it's basics not to jump out, but he was obviously trying to get hit vs jumping out of the way.

    Like I said dumb, but not cowardly.

  5. Dumb move trying to jump where he thinks it's going but anyone accusing Zaniolo of being a coward is equally stupid.  A lot of luck in trying to bend a freekick around a wall, failing, and a gap appearing just where you miss hit it.

    Olsen also has been good.

    Man U could easily go and win their remaining 9 in a row

    They're 20/1 to finish top 4. I can't imagine the odds on them winning 9 straight but if you think they could do it then it's the definition of an asymmetric bet.

    So you would pick Rashford over Ollie for England but Ollie over Rashford for club football? 

    Shame Ollie what get the chance to show his club form for country, as I have pointed out earlier hes a far more complete player than Rashford,  who isn't at bad player, he's just not as good as Ollie , IMHO.

    No, I'd pick them both and leave Toney at home

    Ollie or Rashford? I know who manure fans would prefer, Ollies stats are at the top of the pile for assists and goals, add his defensive work to that and his lack of injuries and work rate and he is ahead of Rashford or Toney by a country mile surely?

    Southgate, given half a chance, won't take him.

    I'm saying Rashford looks better for England than he does for Man U, so club stats or club fan opinions wouldn't factor into that.

    For England his stats are decent:

    Games: 59
    Starts: 26
    Goals: 17
    Assists: 6
    Total minutes played: 2,668 (approx 30 games worth of minutes)

    Why don't they both go and leave Rashford at home.

    I've always thought of Rashford as a sort of inverse John Barnes in that he looks way better playing for the national side than for his club.

    I actually like him for England.

    to be fair, Merse is sort of right though isnt he. If Watkins goes, he wont play a minute, Kane will play every game.

     

    Assuming he's fit / available to play every game.

    I disagree that if Kane's out it's over. The midfield is one of the strongest in world football - having a striker like Ollie who provides so many assists should be a deadly combination.

  11. For anyone in the shitcoin trenches - the meta over the last few days has been dead coins pumping days later.

    If you buy something that gets over a milly mcap and it plummets, don't sell for dust.

    Missed a few of these, held a handful, and have one that's up 40x after being dead for over a month.

    Key point - it has to have previously pumped, so if it hit 100k and died then rip.

    don't know if this is what you're intending but this meme usually memes the top choice is pretty good but everyone hates it, while the bottom choice is worse but somehow people are fine with it
