I, too, often confuse other humans with the T-Rex.

Agree completely. They keep saying the "war" needs to stop. Sure. Wars can stop by cease fire, invasions cannot. Invasions only end when the invader cedes occupied land. The framing that it's a "war" and not an invasion is so incredibly disrespectful to Ukraine's sovereignty and clearly proRussian

Genuinely going to go down as one of the most humiliating and damaging exchanges in US foreign relations history

I thought the same thing. The first paragraph, quoting Buttigieg, made some fair points. But by the end this felt like someone's Uncle's 2 am Facebook ramblings. Just intellectually lazy stuff in what had potential to be somewhat insightful.

I'm an attorney for a tribal government. I've always gone to lengths to make it clear my client is the organization, not any person. This creates a potentially insurmountable ethical dilemma for every attorney in that office. Tough spot to be in, but I'd probably at least dust off the resume.

Also think it's important to stop using terms like "aroused" and instead speak like normal people--especially for points 1, 3, 4, and 5. How about "pissed off/engaged"? Messaging is going to matter and I only say this because you aren't the first prominent Democrat I've seen use that exact same term

I'm a tribal healthcare attorney. Your support here is appreciated, but--speaking for myself here--taking some time to personally meet with tribes in your district that will be impacted by this would be even better. Discuss, organize, and rally WITH them on this, not just for them.

Have to be honest, I don't care for this... Particularly the insinuation that casinos are indicative of a "bad" place. Those casinos are all tribally owned, and how many Tribal governments sustain and provide resources to their citizens. Stitt is an idiot, but why drag Tribes like this?

From a strictly business standpoint though, doesn't this cut the number of paid commercials per broadcast? Is there money in highlights on Twitter or twitch for these teams? It also means each team needs fewer bench guys with 8 fewer minutes to go around. Think the player's union would go for it?

Disagree. Luka has missed half the season, it would've been a disservice to another deserving player had he been picked. It isn't his fault, but it wouldn't be right to put him in over like a Jalen Williams.
