Gonna be a weird 2026 Olypmics when it's ONLY the US vs Russia.

Two points: 1. I think most people pre-streaming were cinema-illiterate and we just had a common touchstone of popular movies of the recent past that made it seem otherwise. 2. The enemy isn’t streaming, the enemy is choice. No one is made to watch what’s on anymore. There’s no going back.

If you want to know what the Dem leadership is doing, history tells them that they would likely gain back control of at least one chamber, if not both, in 2026 with calm even resistance If you want to know why Dem voters are mad, no one wants to see what calm even resistance ends up with by 2026

I have always believed the Yankees are missing a golden bobblehead opportunity

No, American athletes playing in Canada have a completely different statement to memorize "I have come here seeking political asylum"

Again - we're still 3D Chessing this man are we? His entire life is lived by "if you aren't getting something over on someone, they are getting something over on you". He's putting it into practice with tariffs. He's surrounded by people that will tell him he's right.

Apparently woke DEI stuff was keeping the economy afloat.

I feel like there's a non-zero chance the speech tomorrow night will be something like "we have to make things worse before they get better" and while I'm still of the mind you hold onto 80% of you support no matter what that will be testing my theory.

This is ok because I have 179 billion sitting around and I've been using my money to get cheaper sorghum from Brazil that I'll now put toward US sorghum

The MASN dispute is a good lesson in "never make a long-term deal with someone bigger than you". The O's deal was for Nats rights forever. After a decade or so MLB worked as hard as they could to break the deal. Only the fact "Angelos" is basically "litigation" kept it in check as long as it was.

Guys, the team couldn't get the numbers they wanted ON PARK NAMING RIGHTS.

I'm not a current movie guy but it seems to me to be a pretty weak movie year.

And now It Happened One Night is on TCM.

Solid dead people montage. B+ work. This is a good looking stage design as well

They aren't going to do A-Ha's "The Living Daylights" are they? Very disappointing

A now for something completely unecessary
