Miller called in the Feds, and they'll put his face on a wall, monitor his ID and credit cards, but they will never see or hear a thing. Voight: This case is closed, and we're done. If he weren't able to call the shots, delegating assignments, and insisting on things like carrying the evidence himself, then he and Hailey would've been ruined forever.Īnd he has a way of doing things so smoothly that while it's odd, no one questions it too much.

The tape exists in a constant state of flux between Peep’s superego and his id, as on “Interlude” where he asks, “Two racks on my new shoes/Why the fuck I do that?/Tell me, why the fuck do I do that?” What are we to believe when he sings, “I just fell in love with a bad bitch/Told me that she love me too, baby, I’m not havin’ it.” Peep could be impetuous but maybe not overly serious expensive footwear and reciprocated love are both distressing and perhaps funny or even boring to him. The brilliance in Hellboy comes with how Peep juxtaposed his desires with his reality. ![]() That intake indifference shows on “Cobain,” when Peep raps, “Sniffin’ cocaine ’cause I didn’t have no Actavis.” “I just like smoking weed and whatever other drug comes my way,” he offered as the alternative. He sang as much on “The Song They Played ”: “I don’t wanna die alone right now, but I admit I do sometimes.” In that same interview, Peep said he didn’t want to take anti-depressants. “I suffer from depression, and some days I wake up and I’m like, Fuck, I wish I didn’t wake up,” Peep told Pitchfork in January 2017. Still, the truth in Lil Peep’s songs matched with Gustav Åhr’s reality. ![]() If you’re going to engage with him and listen to his art, you’re going to do so on his terms and accept what he provides. It speaks to his barrier, a built-in defensive nature. That line feels like an invitation into his psyche, but he’s telling you that you will not know him. “You don’t even know what I been through,” the tape begins, with Peep rapping flatly over a bass guitar lifted from the Christian metalcore band Underoath, as if to suggest that the full story is not worth the time. The chorus of “Fucked Up,” for example, starts, “I’ve been all the way fucked up/Girl, you got me fucked up/One chance and I fucked it up.” There was no need for excess when he made the consequences of his music so steep.Īmid the clear communication, however, were clues that Peep’s mind was impossible to penetrate. They don’t develop, so much as orbit around a theme. Peep made big songs with a central idea that he could fill with color, in lieu of conjuring moments or people or places. The songs can be defined broadly: “Drive By” is about recklessness “OMFG” is about depression “The Last Thing I Wanna Do” is about regret and pain. Even a nascent underground sub-genre like emo trap had its forebears: There was the Swedish “Sad Boys” cloud rapper Yung Lean-who, by 2016, had transitioned into the auteur portion of his career-and the mysterious graveyard rapper Bones, who finagled his way onto an A$AP Rocky album before retreating back into the darkness of the web.īut Hellboy stood out because it is extreme and obvious, a record that tells you exactly what it’s about. This is not to say that Lil Peep single-handedly invented a genre or door-busted his way to the top of the industry. The top rap song at the time was DRAM and Lil Yachty’s “ Broccoli,” which sounds ancient now. Hellboy arrived two disproportionately long years ago, before emo trap was marketable and mumble rap was canon. It is an artifact that brings you as close as possible to Lil Peep. It’s callous, brazen, and indulgent, the sound of someone testing out the entire spectrum of feeling for the very first time. Hellboy paints the portrait of a young person who is bursting open with emotion, trying to share his experiences as vividly as he can while covering all the formative scars that still ache. “I ain’t gonna lie, I’ma keep it real/I don’t wanna tell you how I feel,” he sang on “Fucked Up,” at once revealing and concealing the truth. All the while, Peep hid the reasons for his behavior from the listener. ![]() The mixtape is filled with suicidal declarations, rampant drug use, and moments of delight and impulse. ![]() Uploaded to SoundCloud in September 2016, Hellboy is the masterpiece of Lil Peep’s lifetime. It’s frustrating as someone who remembers a happy brother.” How could the kid who sang, “I used to wanna kill myself/Came up, still wanna kill myself,” be anything but deeply inconsolable? But Oskar also added, “He was not as sad as people think he was. It’s what his image was in a sense.” That image made you think you knew Lil Peep as someone who willingly revealed his pain and struggles in his music. “He gets paid to be sad,” Peep’s older brother Oskar told People on November 17, 2017, hardly more than a day after Peep died. ![]() ![]() ![]() If things just don't work when you are developing a web application, the question immediately arises as to what data the browser and web server are actually exchanging.

Here at T3, we understand that not everyone can afford a grand or more for a Collector's Edition Star Wars Lego set. Best Lego Star Wars 2023: how we choose the sets It even comes with a scale Tantive IV ship, for recreating that scene of the failed escape. At over 4,700 pieces, building it is a huge endeavour – one that will keep you occupied for a long time.Īnd the end result is extremely worth it – it's a stunning model. It's a whopping 43 inches long when finished, 26 inches wide and 17 inches tall. All in all it looks pretty good and I’ll say most fans will buy this playset because it offers so much more than previous years.This thing really fits the epic feel of the first time the Star Destroyer appears in the original Star Wars film. I thought a Ronto would be included considering they did include a Jawa, rather than just another Dewback. It’s a shame a Bantha didn’t make it but then again Tusken Raiders don’t appear in Mos Eisley. I’m very happy they included a new Ubrikkian 9000 Z001 Pod and V-35 Landspeeder rather than yet another X-34 Landspeeder. I’m sure fans will be happy with all the booths and a full bar. Well LEGO did say it would be a Mos Eisley Cantina and they did fulfil on the promise. Considering there are the ones aforementioned why not include alien creatures such as Arleil Schous, Feltipern Trevagg, Hem Dazon, Muftak, Nabrun Leids, Takeel & Zutton? What I don’t understand is including Garindan but not the escape scene? Also, there are some smaller buildings but not sure of the significance other than padding out the brick count. I’m sure fans appreciate the number of minifigures but there should have been more iconic characters. Then they could have named it the LEGO Mos Eisley Spaceport. I know licensing costs a lot but they could have added more including Docking Bay 94 and a scaled down Millennium Falcon with 2000+ more bricks. So this seems a little underwhelming considering Harry Potter fans receive 5000+ bricks and Star Wars fans only get 3000+ bricks for the same price. I can’t find any other cantina alien who matches that look, but Helrot doesn’t have a distinctive profile. He has a light-colored, bald head, and wears a light-colored vest over a dark outfit. ![]() This unidentified minifig could be Elis Helrot.

Two notables are Doctor Cornelius Evazan and Ponda Baba, who didn’t “like” Luke. The set appears to include more than 20 minifigures, including several who are appearing in minifigure form for the first time. There’s no word yet on the set’s price or release date.

The supplier payment will eventually be issued since the product/service was received, but certain companies with buyer power can extend their days payable (e.g. If working capital is negative from the accumulation of owed payments to suppliers, the company is holding onto more cash during the delayed payment time span. However, negative working capital can generate excess cash flows – assuming the cause of the negative NWC balance is driven by operating efficiency, as we’ll explain shortly. How to Interpret Negative Net Working Capital (NWC) Negative Net Working Capital → “Good” Sign?įor companies with more current liabilities than current assets, the instinctual response is to interpret the negative working capital unfavorably. The latter scenario is what we’ll focus on, as the concept can initially be trickier to understand. If Current Assets If Current Assets > Current Liabilities → Positive Working Capital.NWC captures the operating current assets and current liabilities to quantify the minimum cash balance, which is the amount of cash required to be on hand for operations to continue running as usual. Unlike operating current assets and current liabilities such as accounts receivable and accounts payable, cash and debt are non-operational – i.e. Net Working Capital (NWC) = Current Assets (Excluding Cash & Equivalents) – Current Liabilities (Excluding Debt and Interest-Bearing Liabilities).The net working capital (NWC) metric reflects the amount of cash tied up in a company’s operations. Working Capital = Current Assets – Current Liabilitiesīy contrast, the net working capital (NWC) metric is similar but deliberately excludes two line items:.In accounting textbooks, working capital is typically defined as: Working Capital Formula Just as a quick preface before we begin, the term “working capital” will be used interchangeably with “net working capital.” ![]() WARNING! If the net working capital is negative the ratio cannot be reliably interpreted.Negative Working Capital arises when a company’s current operating liabilities exceed the value of its current operating assets on the balance sheet. the decrease of ratio's value much below 50% is assessed negatively due to the risk of loss of financial liquidity.the increase of ratio's value much above 50% is assessed negatively due to the risk of excess liquidity,. ![]()
![]() ![]() If a MassHealth recipient got selected for redetermination review on April 15, Levine said, the “blue envelope” mailed to them signifying that status might not arrive until April 20. “But if you got selected for renewal as a MassHealth member in April, if you do not respond or you respond but it takes us a while to process, you’re not going to see a coverage impact until more like the late May, early June timeframe.” “There’s not a lot to see in April because we were just getting started and we took a very measured approach in April to begin to select members for renewal,” Levine told reporters. Impacts from the gargantuan effort to figure out who is still eligible might not become clear for several more weeks because of the lag time involved in the first batch of redeterminations, Levine said. The Healey administration on Thursday outlined a new digital dashboard summarizing data from the first month of the redetermination process, which will decide how many people can remain on publicly-funded health insurance for the first time since the COVID-19 pandemic began.Ībout a third more people fell off the MassHealth rolls in April than in March, but despite the early impacts, overall enrollment saw a net increase because about 18,700 people joined the insurance program over the course of the month - a tally officials described as relatively routine.Īssistant Secretary for MassHealth Mike Levine described the topline MassHealth growth in April as “a little bit counterintuitive.” BOSTON (SHNS) – More than 12,000 people left MassHealth coverage in April, and top state officials expect those numbers to grow significantly in the coming months as the process of redetermining eligibility for about 2.4 million Bay Staters ramps up. ![]() ![]() ![]() If you want to promote without participating in the community, purchase an ad.

However, with the intense fight against the Empire having left Gallia's regular army in an exhausted state, there is initially little to stop the insurrection from gaining momentum.

RASCOE: NPR national political correspondent Mara Liasson. But how to avoid that catastrophe is still a very open question with very little time to answer it because economists say we could default by June 1. Republican leaders keep saying there won't be a default. But the bottom line is the president keeps saying, we'll not default. He raised questions about whether this could be done in time. And today, President Biden said he thinks he does have the authority to stop a default by himself under the 14th Amendment. In other words, the - defaulting is unconstitutional. LIASSON: Well, the 14th Amendment says that the validity of the public debt of the United States shall not be questioned. Well, but what about invoking the 14th Amendment? That's something that Biden was asked about. ![]() LIASSON: No, they didn't even make the debt ceiling an issue on Donald Trump's watch. RASCOE: Well, they didn't default on Donald Trump's watch (laughter). You have other Republicans saying default wouldn't be too bad. But this time it seems more elusive because you've got Republicans, like Donald Trump, saying Congress should default. And it's a self-inflicted wound.Īnd, you know, in the past, they - the two parties have always found a face-saving offramp. default would not only hurt the United States economy, but it could trigger inflation and unemployment and a recession around the world. America looks dysfunctional just at a time it's trying to rally its allies to counter China. But in this case, the debt-ceiling standoff in Washington has affected his agenda abroad. This isn't the first time a domestic problem has followed a president abroad or forced him to cut short a trip. So how are they reacting to the possibility of the U.S. I mean, these are big economic partners for the U.S. RASCOE: So Biden made these comments while in Japan after meeting with all these foreign leaders. And remember, if you take Social Security, Medicare and defense off the table, that means if you're going to do deficit reduction, you have to cut everything else much more deeply. But spending caps, how deep the cuts should be, how long the caps should last - that's the biggest spending - the biggest sticking point right now. There were some other areas where both sides could see a compromise, like permitting reform, which would make both green energy projects and oil and gas projects happen faster, or clawing back unspent COVID funds, which both sides sounded like they were open to. LIASSON: The sticking points are mostly about spending. RASCOE: So what are the sticking points here, though? Both sides have to prove to their respective bases that they're not going to compromise unnecessarily. But today, as you heard, he accused Republicans of looking for a partisan solution to something that has to be bipartisan. Until now, he was talking about progress in the talks. LIASSON: Well, it sounds like that face-saving offramp to avoid a default is not anywhere in sight. RASCOE: So what do you make of what Biden said today? NPR's national political correspondent, Mara Liasson, joins us now. He also said he's talking with House Speaker Kevin McCarthy on his flight home from Japan, where he's been attending the G-7 summit. RASCOE: He called out, in particular, Republican proposals that would benefit the pharmaceutical and fossil fuel industries while cutting back on food stamps and Medicaid. PRESIDENT JOE BIDEN: Now it's time for the other side to move their - from their extreme positions because much of what they've already proposed is simply, quite frankly, unacceptable. Earlier today, President Biden said he's done his part to offer solutions to avoid a default on the federal debt. ![]() ![]() ![]() No actual use for the change shot "shot stick".
