I live on the peninsula just south of San Francisco (Daly City) and there are 2 golf courses nearby. I loving hate it. There isn’t enough room for people, and all of the affordable housing is gone, but here are two huge beautiful pieces of land that are only used by rich fucks.

And they probably get tax breaks or subsidies or some other sort of benefit as "nature preserves". gently caress golf sideways. Hopefully it mostly dies with the boomers.

He's not really a propagandist... He's just an oversensitive dude whose feelings are hurt and he's blinded by feeling sorry for himself that someone dared to hurt his feelings.

There have to be between five and ten people who have the unredacted copy. It'd be easily traced to whichever one decided to leak it.

That said, you're absolutely right. I'd do it in a heartbeat, and probably I would do it somewhat publicly and put myself on the mercy of whatever whistleblowing process would come about.

It largely is. Houses in course communities are plummeting in value as boomers move out to assisted living or die and no younger people want to buy a place where you can't walk to anything and you have to pay an assload to the HOA for course upkeep.

True, true!

The Citations Needed podcast episode where they manage to get Toure’ on for an interview about MSNBC is very clarifying. MSNBC is never going to put actual leftists on air because there are way too many risks that one of the millionaires or billionaires who want to think of themselves as good liberals will hear something intolerable about their wealth hoarding.

This explains the gap between Chris Hayes’ milk toast liberalism on the air, and much more leftist rhetoric on twitter and in his writing.

Do you think milk toast is a breakfast item or something?

Tiger might not have been the first to do it, but it was a huge innovation for pro golfers to actually exercise.

Do you know anyone your age who golfs? Because I don't. The only person I know who golfs regularly is my future FiL, and he's 77.

But man, when my city tried to turn the municipal course into a huge multi-use park, citing declining use as the main reason, the few dozen olds who still used it pitched an absolute loving fit to the point that in what was I'm absolutely certain was deal rife with corruption and kickbacks and such, the city purchased a failing local country club to use an an "events center" and turned that course into a municipal one. My understanding is that like the previous one, it is little used and only by a small number of people.

Tiger absolutely innovated fitness in golf. I was about 10 feet away from him at a tournament last year and he's still built like a brick shithouse.

there's a couple spoiled codebros in my office that golf and that's all I know and it seems more from what they did with their very rich family than their age though tbh

Everyone who flew on that plane should sue as well. This is a thorough and obvious cover-up of a dangerous plane.
