There's a great scene in Darkwing Duck when Dr Bushroot gets introduced. Bushroot is going after all the people who bullied him pre-mutation, and DW swings in and clobbers him, and Bushroot yells/whines, "Hey, no fair fighting back!" This is American/Christian conservatism in a sentence.

Satelittles. It has to be satelittles.

Oh good, finally a scoring chance for the #nyr

Sandy Brondello: Nawr! Go over the boards! And finish your f@#!ing checks!

Closet atheist, Germany, 1350

Namestnikov from Barron and Pionk, and I can move on to baseball season

This is a culture that invented a myth of widespread persecution by the Romans. They've been doing this for millennia. It's not an aberration.

Oh no the #nyr are on the power play. They need a PK so they can even things up

Namestnikov, because #nyr

In any given dozen eggs in the US, each egg costs an average of $1.85.

Tonight the #nyr try not to get pegged. Pucker factor 13. Strap up boyos.

I've been watching this really awesome show called [show name] about [subject] "Oh that sounds cool. What streaming service is it on?" No clue. "What!? How are you watching it and you don't know which app it's on!?" What are you, a fucking cop?

Oh wow. Mike Babcock is her new coach?

You don't need unity to fight fascism. You need solidarity. They are not the same thing.

Quick reminder that there will always be history books. The one I got in high school said Kennedy won the Cuban missile crisis. They're always just collections of lies to justify modern power structures.

Time to start following soccer again

The pundidiots are calling the stock market a guide rail for the government because they think the point of the tariffs and doge is to make rich people money. It's not. It's to eradicate the middle class entirely. The bourgeoisie were the death blow to feudalism.

The only ethical consumption is piracy.

I think the fun thing about the current moment is how fast people are catching up to me. When they started saying eat the rich, they meant taxing them to pay for social programs. I was debating vinegar versus sugar based marinades. Y'all mfers starting to get hungry now, huh.

🤔

Please understand: conversion therapy is torture. They teach your parents to torture you at home and at school. You are removed from your supportive social environment, forbidden to see or interact with friends or the outside world, and punished until you promise to believe lies about yourself.

It's amazing that America decided to speed run a whole millennium of eurochristian history in a couple decades. Started with a pair of crusades and now going for the inquisitions.

ESPN: the worldwide leader in podcasts not being recorded in a 40 year old guy's mom's basement duh nuh nuh duh nuh nuh

It's a systemic failure of every component of the organization. Player evaluation, drafting, development, coaching, asset management, etc, etc, etc. Their best non-goalie players forced their way to the team, developed in the NCAA, or were trade pieces that over performed briefly.

Man, the #nyr need a couple goals. Panari hook somebody challenge.

DOD and DOJ about to replace their entire vehicle fleets with cybertrucks

The wealthy have never, in 10,000 years of human history, cared about the size of their fortune as much as the percentage of total wealth they possess. They'd rather be millionaires when everybody else has a dollar than be billionaires when everybody else has a million.

When Rangers fans say it there's a lot more curse words. Like a Deadpool movie written by Kevin Smith and directed by Tarantino. That would be the worst movie ever. Almost as unwatchable as the Rangers.

They look like something a Gen X grandma would have painted on velvet hanging on the wall of her double wide or something that the biggest loser you know would airbrush on the side of a van with a shag carpet interior.

TSN: here's a broadcast team of incredibly smart, prepared women who will nail every aspect of calling a hockey game, keeping you entertained and informed. MSG: here's Grandpa Simpson and Woody from Cheers.

if you replaced these guys' inboxes with a woman sportswriter's, they'd commit suicide by lunchtime

The wallpaper in the swingingest bachelor pad in 1963 LA has found a second life. Somebody make it stop.

I’d like to announce my forthcoming US history book, covering a decisive but tumultuous era in that country’s history, titled “The trade policies of the United States: 10:30 am to 1:30 pm on Friday, March 7, 2025” It will be 400 pages.

Honestly, that's pretty great work by Carolina re: the Rantanen deal given the situation (if he wasn't interested in extending w/ the Canes). Have a hunch they were not super impressed with his fit on the team - it was only 13 games, but he was still slightly below replacement level there.

All objective, verifiable facts are leftist conspiracies against the neofeudal order.

I'm going to sell baggies of dog poop as Heritage Patriot Tactical Stuff and make a trillion dollars.

The time compression that happens when people look back at history will make it seem like the party stood with him in the moment. It's worse than hanging him out to dry. They're trying to steal his defiance for their own legacies.

Philosophy professor: *explains the trolley problem in detail* Moralist: touching that lever is murder! Utilitarian: save the most lives possible! American: after it runs over the people on the first track, can we back it up and send it down the other track, too?

The thing about red state white Democrats is that they're maga Republicans who don't use slurs in public.

Addendum to this. Having a 3rd pair defensemen who's not being asked to play a 1st pair role is a minor upgrade, so that with the cap savings makes that a C trade. #nyr

He'll be selling off his personal supply of those just minutes before announcing that none of them will be in the reserve.

The Yankees and Mets are losing to Atlanta and Boston. It's the worst adaptation of Throw Momma from the Train I've ever seen.

So far I'm having trouble seeing yesterday's #nyr trade as anything more than trading our Lindgren and Vesey for Colorado's Lindgren and Vesey. 6/7th D and 13th F on expiring contracts for a 6/7th D and 13th F on expiring contracts. Rangers are collecting 3rd pair defensemen like infinity stones.

If you don't think someone at the #nhl understands trolling, the fans in the football stadium at THE Ohio State University are rooting for the team wearing blue against the team wearing red. If this was on purpose, it's perfect.

The Red Wings actual winged helmets should be permanent

For all the #nyr fans who might be tempted to make jokes about the Avs taking Lindgren, please remember that's the franchise who got Jack Johnson's name on the Stanley Cup. If anybody wants to argue that current Lindgren is worse than Johnson, um... what?

It took 3 generations for the masculine ideal to go from Rooster Cogburn to Barney Fife.

This is correct. In the NHL, faceoff win % is more meaningless than no context +/- Also how did we as a society reach a point where of Cage/Travolta, Cage is the normal one?
