Heartbreaking: Person Whose Position You Were Agreeing With Finishes With the Most Dogshit Argument You Ever Heard in Your Life

If SJM on some off chance decided NOT to harness the potential setup she has laid out for Elain to be a soft, feminine woman but also equally as capable and badass as her sisters by showing her skills through her powers/spying instead of the traditional warrior-type FMC ...

I'm totally stealing that idea and writing it myself, because if she can't see how FRESH that storyline would be - then somebody else better capitalize on it at least lmao

Tick, tock, Sarah!! Don't make me beat you to the punch 🤪

When does Mitch have to make his decision by?

the start of next season technically. realistically, if he actually goes to free agency on july 1st and the threat of it isn't just negotiating power then my own anxiety will go crazy. he's the biggest name on the market and a lot of teams will be trying to sign him as soon as we hit july but if the leafs are under the real impression he doesnt want to sign, they can make moves starting july 1st too and use his cap space, which is why it becomes scary. there was a rumor saying he would still be considering toronto on july 1st which, again, makes me think the fa threat is just a tactic to get toronto to match what other teams are willing to pay (like mitch is Technically not allowed to be talking to other teams at the moment or until noon on july first. its called tampering but it happens all the time lol). so he could even technically go to free agency and get all the numbers and come back to the leafs and ask them to match it but it's a gamble to make the leafs wait bc they will be trying to make their own moves in the offseason.

it baffles me that so many people are so sure of whats happening bc a camp in the middle of negotiating who has always said they were waiting til free agency is still saying that. that doesn't indicate anything crazy to me. it will if we actually get there but i actually dont think you can just write off the negotiation tactics ferris uses until the reality of those threats plays out, ya know

@gamingavickreyauction Oh, right, here's one trouble I have with expected value maximization:

Say there's a lottery A, and in this lottery I have a 1 - ε chance of getting my right arm ripped off and going blind. This is pretty bad. Say it has utility to me N, where N is a negative number of large magnitude. There is also an ε chance of something really really good happening, something extravagantly good like world peace and I live forever and get everything I want. Let's say the utility of this outcome to me is M. So the expected value of playing this lottery is E(A) = N(1 - ε) + Mε.

Now, N is pretty big, but it's still finite. Getting my right arm ripped off and going blind would pretty thoroughly fuck up my life in every way that I care about. So I really don't want that. But it's not the Christian hell, it's not infinitely bad. Fix ε to be some very small number 0.00000000000001 or whatever. With N and ε fixed, we can always choose some M such that E(A) is greater than zero. In fact, we can choose M so large that E(A) dominates the expected utility of my entire life.

Suppose I was offered a chance to take the lottery A with this ε. Would I do it? I strongly suspect that I would not, no matter how big you make M. You can chalk this up to a failure of reasoning on my part, a failure to truly internalize the bigness of M. But it feels to me like, no matter how big you make M, participating in the lottery would basically just be signing up to get my arm ripped off and go blind. Like that's just definitely what would happen, I would totally not get M. The expected value is a mathematical abstraction, and I'm not signing up to more-or-less certainly get dismembered over an abstraction. I think I would not accept this lottery! And I think probably most people wouldn't.

I believe this goes against one of the Von Neumann–Morgenstern axioms.

Shooting CEOs is still a topic, but that's unlikely to end the problem of believing in the primacy of the shareholder and it's associated pursuit of maximizing profits at all costs.

It really won't change the fact that some things cannot be done well with profit as a main motivation.

Under the influence of the privatization of the world and the neoliberal ideology that underlies it, society is dying piece by piece. Profit maximization, accelerated accumulation of surplus value, and the monopolization of economic decision-making contradict the deep desires and individual interests of the vast majority. Commodity rationality devastates consciences, alienates people, and deprives the masses of a freely discussed, democratically chosen destiny. The logic of commodities stifles the irreducible, unpredictable, and eternally enigmatic freedom of the individual. Humans are reduced to their pure commodity function.
