No shot, right?

no offense to Jeff but if you are alleging the head editor of the Atlantic was cunning enough to circumvent all your security safeguards that kinda makes you sound even worse

There’s that airtight logic we’ve come to rely on from Don Jr

And you know who you have to blame for this, Nikki?

Yes. But they are missing that much of this has to be performative. That’s what Trump is great at and Dems are awful at. You can’t just tell voters , you have to know how to sell voters. Trump gives sales pitches, Dems show charts. One goes viral. The other is ignored and forgotten

It’s good to know this App also has a reading comprehension problem

Pretty sure this is how Mavs fans feel right now lol

remember stuff like this when they tell you that diversity means a lowering of standards

We underestimate how good refs are at their job and how good ESPN is at only calling out egregious decisions. This KC v HOU game though was historically bad.

It doesn’t matter if it’s “wrong”. What matters is what it looks like. And it looks like Trump is going to bring back tik tok and reap the political reward for it

We are so - and I use this word advisely - fucked.

Was going to use last week's dough to make round NY pizzas outside, but I'm pretty sure the propane regulator froze, so I stretched them into pans and made a few pan pies. Lower hydration than I usually do for pans, but they turned out kinda great?

The median voter yearns for economic populism

Alabama does not belong in the College Football Playoffs with their 9 win season. Especially with one of their three losses was to Vanderbilt.

I imagine Tulsi Gabbard did not expect this part of the movie.

Newly elected Congressional Progressive Caucus chair Greg Casar is already cooking www.nbcnews.com/politics/con...

That interception is a policy failure

Me: Hey can you do your dishes My roommate The Buddha: Perhaps your problem is not my dishes but your attachment to a clean sink Me: Alright man

the 49ers fans contingent wanting Kyle Shanahan gone is the most unhinged fan behavior going on right now

Luis Severino on signing with the A's

The fact this is the largest contract the As have given is crazy. But good for Sevvy! Guess I found the A’s jersey I’ll be adding to the collection!

oh wow

There is a non-zero chance Trump ends up starting an annexation movement in Canada. I don’t think it’ll actually work, but some Canadians may try!

The "Golden At-Bat" rule that MLB is considering might be the stupidest thing I've ever heard of. Things can be dumb. Things can be unnecessary. When they are dumb and unnecessary, they should not happen.

June 12 1967 is “Loving Day”

euphoria

Ohio State should be locked into 13 on general principle

if the goal is to draw more eyeballs I'm 1000% convinced that sleeveless jerseys would be far more effective than "golden at bat"

The 1980s weren't known for their depth, but BILL & TED'S EXCELLENT ADVENTURE is such a great moral text. Too many people fail to recognize that there can be no "Be excellent to each other" without "And party on."

Well this is gonna stare at me like the green goblin mask for the next two days

I’m ngl it’s pretty crazy he hasn’t visited Africa once in these past 4 years

ME: (fumbling through order) Hola! Un…cafe latte…sin…azúcar, por favor? BARISTA: Uh-huh. And what size? ME: (internally) I put up with that goddamn green owl for weeks…

One of our leading magazines, which most members of Congress, reported that the Trump nominee for Defense Secretary chanted ‘ Kill all Muslims!’ and I haven’t seen loads of (any?) elected Dems condemn him for it yet. It’s almost as if… Islamophobia has been normalized in DC.

Maybe I’m naive, but I actually am not convinced the Trump admin would care about Hunter Biden after January. There are thousands of political opponents that are higher on their “enemies list”. I don’t think the juice is worth the squeeze at that point.

Hiccups are the stupidest thing ever. You just wanna breathe and your body on some bullshit.

the frenzy over the hunter biden pardon is a good reminder that the press knows how to make something a scandal and has decided that nothing trump does is truly deserving of that treatment

Huge blow to the #Padres @padresnation.bsky.social

instead of playbooks today’s nfl teams should be reading the holy bible

So Hunter Biden lied about his addiction in order to…. purchase a gun? Maybe we need to have stricter background checks to prevent this from happening?
