I don't believe you live in wrigleyville if you think the ASG will bring more bozos to the neighborhood than TBOX or some other dumb event that happens every year.

There's also the unfortunate fact that corporations are the ones that our congresspeople listen to so hopefully them not wanting to be associated with garbage voter suppression means they'll lobby to fix it.

fawning deference posted:I am on Google Fi as well and have no idea why more people aren't on it. It's 100% flexible, it's easily the cheapest provider, and the technical support is amazing - you basically never to call and listen to robot voices ever again and they solve your problems on the spot. No contracts at all. I was about to quote this and talk about the pricing, but after looking it up the price seems to have dropped and it would save me $40/mo to switch; I'll definitely look into this.

jng2058 posted:It's a full 162 game season. That's the definition of "it's a marathon, not a sprint." You know how football coaches like to break down the season into quarters? By that standard, we're a minute and thirty seconds into the game. Plenty of time for things to improve, yet. This is 100% correct.... On the other hand the Phillies are undefeated and on-track for 162-0 and I won't hear otherwise.
