    we were talking about roberts
    but then you brought up adaptability, unwillingness to change and how “i” could fail to evolve spiritually
    if anyone moved that goalpost it was you
    but you do attack
    you don’t see it but that’s what you do
    you find something someone says and then distort it and use it against them
    you said i don’t need to fear transgenders
    but all i said was “transgender promotions >>> championships” for dodger ownership
    i never mentioned nor implied fear
    i have no will for you whatsoever rube
    you’re a good dude and you’ve done more bringing people together here at DSP that you realize
    i am truly grateful and appreciate everything you’ve done for all of us
    i consider the back and forth what makes DSP great
    there’s the missing “encouragement”
    you should be genuinely proud of your creation
    long live DSP

    Yep, I'd rather have Miggy or Kim in the lineup than ConfortNo or even Call TBH. But I've given up on Betts moving - just doesn't seem likely this late in the season. Right now Dodgers need Max back. Freeland filled in nicely but he's not ready to be in there everyday.

    call is a huge disappointment
    sure strikes out a lot for a guy who they said rarely strikes out

    We got Call. Pads got Laureano who is slashing .310/.355/.566 since the trade.

    in a nutshell there's the rub
    one of the best HR hitters in the game batting leadoff?
    make that make sense for me
    makes as much sense as a 6 time gg winner in RF playing SS
    almost feels like an intentional sabotage

    Couldn't agree more, and the Ohtani thing at leadoff has never made sense to me. Been saying this all season, but what is now 46 HRs should result in way more than 100 RBIs, not just 87. He's guaranteed to be up with bases empty for at least one of his ABs, and then you have your lowest OBP hitters batting directly before him for the remainder of his ABs - how can ANYONE think that's a good idea?

    pride gets you in trouble
    and by you i mean me
    because duh you is a figure of speech
    ive explained this dozens of times to yall knuckleheads
    dsp brings me great joy and happiness in knowing how much i have brought you guys closer together over the years

    i was replying to diablo initially
    you jumped in to defend him and moved it to something else
    i was following you out of bounds
    then i realized what was going on and we were way out of bounds
    and i dont like to be there

    the word fear is also a figure of speech that we use in homo/transphobic
    so fear is the word used and you need to get over the fact it triggers you

    i used the word you a bunch of times in that post and you only seem to care about one or two instances
    the other ones you dont take personally
    just like i understood your questions about comforto and them as rhetorical

    plus i was talking about businesses
    hence why i compared it with my bookstore
    and talked about lgbtq nights at the stadium
    thats his business and this is america you vote with your wallet
    cash is king but context is the heir apparent prince of the realm

    these are established modes of communication that we all understand unless we dont want to
    specially when the writer explains to you his intent
    yesterday diablo said something about me or the guy i was quoting copying newsome... i didnt copy newswome and didnt know what he was talking about so i didnt get offended by it or make a big deal
    i havent been around the computer much other than for work or to send you guys a little message here and ther

    just because i think something may be directed at me doesnt mean i should take the hit without figuring out whats going on
    it might not be, it might just be a mistake on their part or mine
    that would be my advice as i also have had to learn to not be so reactionary over the years
    so try not to take shit so personally

    yeah if you get hung up about what is going on with the MLB when there is nothing you can do about it and its just going to sour you and make you unhappy while you continue to be a fan of it dont be weirded out when people look at you like a WWE mark
    like how diablo tells me about the NBA when i tried to lure him back in, he was like nah that shit sucks with LeBron
    in my head im like yeah duh i know, but im over here trying to get into it again since im thinking LeBron is close to being outta here and things are gonna get good again so i was being very positive and was trying to entice him to talk about the lakers with me to get others talking
    it didnt work and i understood why diablo was completely against it
    he didnt want to suffer through watching shit he did not like

    for the same reason you guys dont like whats going on with baseball
    yes, conforto gonna play and its his job to not lose
    yes, davey gonna dance and make funny jokes and keep the millionaires in the clubhouse loose and happy and confident that he has their backs and ice cubes front
    and they making the guggs win win win all the way to the bank
    because your greenbacks are going out of style soon and cash is KING
    specially for the next 3 years as the atm business is gonna change after that
    so collect as much cash as you can right now as its going to be worth more than the digital dollar

    but its like tranny night at the stadium
    what you gonna do about it at the end of the day?
    its a wave like disco that will come and go
    the more you fight it the longer it sticks around

    i started my post by saying duh as in we agree
    then i called you a rube, a me aka as in saying we agree more or are similar more than meets the eye
    these are not attacks but terms of endearment and friendship
    but only seen as attacks if they dont fall on you as that
    im not stirring the pot or attacking but telling you how i see the world

    here is the absolute truth though
    you guys on the right get as easily triggered as the guys on the left over words that you are programmed to fight over
    its automatic and it gets in the way of communication because it causes people to crash out
    see how i changed it from you to people in that last sentence
    i know i have to learn to think about you and people like you when i write and not say the word you and instead say the word people
    that is how i write and how i talk to people that are not people ive been talking to for over a dozen years though
    you guys i talk to as if you were friends

    so yeah i dont think and i didnt think i need to spell out to you that you are not afraid of trannys
    its another duh
    but your fear of trans stuff is evident in your not wanting to be around them
    cmon, you know what phobia means since you were in jr high school
    its not literal fear
    its just a word used to denote whatever feelings you have about the subject
    fear the walking dead
    fear your mother and your father
    fear your god and your lord
    depending on the context it means the opposite if what you would readily think
    from literal fear to hate to disgust to fealty to respect to loyalty to love
    you know all of this though

    its not personal attacks
    here its you coming in to defend what i said in response to diablos post
    when i wasnt saying anything personal about him or anyone else here
    i simply had my own differing opinion
    that good leaders are healers
    and only good leaders are true leaders
    good leaders dont make mistakes
    and when they do they take the hit
    even if its one of their employees
    i had to close up shop in the middle of the day yesterday because one of my volunteers was being a little too hyper
    he apologized and settled down
    but i closed the shop and drove him home
    he begged and almost cried repeating over and over
    i want to work, i wanna work, please i want to work
    but i said no
    you do not get the luxury of working if you do not have a good attitude all the time
    you have to be perfect while you are working because it is a luxury to work
    i stock the office with arizonas and ramen and pepperidge farms cheese crackers and my AC blows cold
    if a customer gets mad that he came to buy a book during his precious time off when im supposed to be open but im not there and the shop is closed oh well
    what is more important about capitalism?
    the moral rules it instills in a person and how it evolves you spiritually
    or the making of the money?


    p.s. thank you for the kind words
    im kinda addicted to them now though since i opened the bookstore
    and since i been down in the city the past couple years
    everywhere i go all i get is kind words
    i liked being in the woods with the mountains and all but people are great
    when i first moved in with my 'wild' dogs and my loud truck and all of my hillbilly ways i was the main villain of the neighbor app for months and my cars kept getting towed and i was the bad guy again
    fast forward a few moments later and now i have people calling me a treasure of the community for what im doing
    and they dont even know what im working on for the city
    young girls call me daddy and young men come to me for advice on how to not be a simp and how not to feel bad over shit the government or your favorite institution or hero does

    and the alphabet people consider me an ally even though im just as much of a hardass with them as i am with the boys and the girls
    but im consistent
    and that is more important than integrity because integrity speaks about YOU
    but being consistent is integral to everyone involved
    not just you but also them
    my customers and the community around my shop

    because the best way to bring some fresh creek water into my store
    is to somehow manage to move the la river to pomona
    spiritually speaking

    i only wish i still had access to the dsp database so i could do stuff for you guys too
    although i would have to delegate it to one of my special needs friends because oh look at the time!

    im not your enemy, im not here to hurt any of you or destroy your little world
    i fostered your world, it would go against my prime directive to destroy what i shaped
    yall need to learn to get the fuck over petty personal shit and move on to a more wholesome level of availability
    with respect :)

    Getting definitely the point where I'm too upset with the incompetence of the umps that it's really spoiling it for me. Easily could mean the difference in this game, or aseries, or a playoff W/L, or a World Series.
    It's coming for me bigger than shit...very difficult to watch more than a couple of innings anymore.

    And THAT bases loaded/got nothing is 100% why this team is fucked, fucked, fucked, fucked, fucked, and proper fucked.

    G'night, lads. I've gotta root canal with no pain killer that I prefer to this horseshit.

    The Dodgers deserve every negative thing that happens to them . Amazing that the Padres are as bad as we are.
    I have to admit they are creative... Just when you think they can't get worse...they fucking do.
    Hard to have fun watching these losers..
