Many times there aren't reasonable solutions to unreasonable situations. You pick from the options you have.

If you smoke it you're an addict, if you take it in a pill you're an upstanding citizen.

If you're expecting the American people to see nuanced healthcare policy behind this then I'm not sure what to tell you. You should know by now that we don't do that.

Hopefully this time more of the idiots will kill themselves by spitting into each other's mouths when sick, or whatever other dumb ideas they come up with. That would solve a lot of problems for us.

I bet this is exactly the kind of thing German citizens were saying to each other in the 30s.

Sometimes they do it because the emails are legitimate and annoying. Or maybe they just want to pretend they didn't see it. You know how I know that :)

What if you're on Family Feud and the category is "things not to do when you meet your new girlfriend's family"?

That's true. Most abusers don't have millions of people who make excuses for their shitty behavior.

The funny thing is, if I happened to have made this comparison in reference to the US, Russia, China, or Israel I bet you would be reacting pretty differently right now.

I don't know enough about the situation to have a real opinion on the matter. All I'm saying is that what I'm hearing as the justification for Denmark keeping control of Greenland sounds just like the logic that many kinds of abusers use to justify their controlling behavior. It's theoretically possible that it's 100% true in this case but my previous experience with that kind of language says that is unlikely.

 

For the first time in two decades, Oklahoma State is in search of a new football coach.

Oklahoma State fired Mike Gundy, effective immediately, according to Robert Allen.

In his 21st season, Gundy accumulated a 170-90 record with the Cowboys. That’s the most wins in program history, and it isn’t particularly close. Pat Jones, Gundy’s coach, is second on Oklahoma State’s all-time wins list at 62-60.

Eleven of Gundy’s teams spent at least one week in the top 10 of the AP poll, climbing as high as No. 2 in the rankings in 2011. Gundy-led teams have had a pair of top 10 finishes in the AP Poll, finishing third in 2011 and seventh in 2021.

Six of Gundy’s teams finished in the top 10 nationally for scoring offense. The aforementioned 2011 team finished the season averaging 48.7 points a game, which ranked second in the nation. OSU’s 2017 squad finished second nationally in total offense, averaging 568.9 yards a game. Led by quarterback Mason Rudolph, that 2017 team finished first nationally in passing offense, averaging 389.2 pass yards a game.

OSU’s best defense under Gundy came in 2021 when coordinator Jim Knowles’ group allowed just 18.1 points and 297.9 yards a game, which ranked ninth and fifth in the country, respectively.

Gundy teams loved a big win. He had 11 wins against AP top-10 opponents, with the most recent being the Cowboys’ 27-24 win against No. 10 Oklahoma in 2023. Gundy has beaten the No. 3 team in the AP Poll twice, besting Missouri 28-23 in 2008 and Baylor 49-17 in 2013.

From 2006 to 2023, OSU teams finished with a winning record. Eight of those squads had at least 10 wins. There have only been three other teams in OSU’s history finish with double-digit wins, and Gundy was the quarterback for two of those squads.

Speaking of his playing days, Gundy still ranks fourth on OSU’s all-time passing list with 8,473 yards, and the three players ahead of Gundy (Mason Rudolph, Spencer Sanders and Brandon Weeden) were all coached by Gundy. Gundy ranks fifth on OSU’s passing touchdowns list with 57.

 

Can we add the option to exclude communities and/or posts that are in a different language than our chosen default? I'm guessing filtering communities would be easier than individual posts but I'm not sure how language would be flagged. I understand some people may want to see some of these posts but even multilingual people must be bombarded with posts in languages they don't speak. I'm getting pretty annoyed that half of my feed is stuff I can't read.

I've looked through the settings multiple times but I suppose it's still possible this already exists and I just missed it.
