I guess one upside of the coming waves of sickness and human suffering is that we may get some new Grim Reaper imagery ideas. Like maybe a shirtless guy in jeans who's "doing his own research"? AirPods for podcast listening, perhaps? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grim_Re...

Why, oh why, is any Dem elected official putting out messages like this?!?! Warner's state is packed to the gills with the very people under threat of getting DOGEd out of their jobs. (just looked it up, dude is 70. Maybe standing up for his constituents makes PeePaw tired)

My eight year old thought the repeated line in Prince’s “Raspberry Beret” was actually “Bad Spherical Brain.”

Hey, TC stans amongst the #FulhamFC faithful, that loose touch and giveaway at the edge of the Palace box is who he is now. Doesn't mean he hasn't been great for us in the past, just that 'past' is the key word there.

All of Fulham's excitement and intensity from last week just isn't there today. Poor first touches and foggy brains combined with very low energy is a recipe for a loss.

Adama's biceps really ruin the Web Beds sleeve advertising.

It'd have been bad news for Martha Stewart bc we all know who Snoop's Best Celeb Friend would have been ...

the Doge guys eliminating their competition?

All USMNT players departing Europe. Has Trump confused UCL and NATO?

Evergreen.

Forest normally is fine giving the other team a lot of half or quarter chances and then hitting on the break. Today #FulhamFC 's chances today have been higher quality than NFO usually give up. Is three-quarters chances a thing?

I agree with this completely AND very amused by the comments from (I'm guessing here) younger folks - 'what is wrong with those old people getting so fragile just bc the cultures has left them behind.' Acting like that same irrelevance isn't coming for them & that they'll somehow be different.

As a natrive Californian - where do we sign up? www.theguardian.com/world/2025/f...

So Drunky McGee has put the name *back* to Fort Bragg - but now it's not named after the Confederate FailGeneral but rather a Pfc named Bragg who was in WWII. Very subtle, guys! Fingers crossed they can't find a Sergeant from the War of 1812 named Adolf Hitler. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/10/u...

Fulham drew MUFC away for next round of FA Cup. Maybe we can get 4 red cards in 90seconds this time around! #FulhamFC @fulhamfc.com

bringing on Berge and ESR this late shows how UN-ruthless Fulham have been this game.

These techo-phile guys (oddly never women. hmm.) seem like they're sucking up to the tech - as if they're subservient enough to SkyNet or HAL or Ape jpegs then they'll get some benefit. If (insert name of new tech) is so wonderful, it doesn't really need us praising and hyping it 24/7 - does it?

This, so much this. I was texting with a very smart friend who would never vote for Trump, but also has worked in finance so he often sees my upset over political events as me panicking or being overly emotional - and he suggested that ...

Not looking forward to *seriously* right wing craziness here (US) in about 20 years when Zoomers start longing for a return to the "greatness of the American Empire" (bc we're blowing all that up right now) like young Russians wanting a return to some grander Soviet-era past they don't even recall.
