It Was an Ambush Friday marked one of the grimmest days in the history of American diplomacy. By Tom Nichols www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

Keir Starmer embraces President Zelensky as he arrives at Downing St.

american masculinity is so amazing. caring about clothes as a man apparently makes you "gay" but our position on geopolitics totally depends on whether you wear a suit

Oh, man, not Gene Hackman. 2025 can just fuck right off. Okay. Let me tell you a little bit about Gene Hackman...

Gene Hackman was my gold standard for judging films for such a long time. I always knew to give a film a chance if Gene was in the cast. Pretty much 100% on the money every time. A true titan of cinema. 😔

Just heard from a friend who is a true hero veteran. His company was destroyed in 30 days by the VA when they canceled 5 contracts without notice. 23 Americans mostly veterans out of work and a veteran owned small business destroyed. For nothing. They're dismantling the VA not "reforming" it.

🤮🤮🤮what an insipid little cunt… that’ll be a ‘hell no’ from me, Jeffy boy. Get in the bin.

If you feel like you’re going insane after watching Adrian and Victoria gaslighting the shit out of their partners then watch this…it will help!! #mafsau #MAFSAU youtu.be/UrGlXlTkang?...

Last night I went to see an REM cover band fronted by actor Michael Shannon. They played Fables of the Reconstruction start to finish & then did a second set of deep cuts. Peter Buck came out & played on the last 5 songs or so. It was fantastic.

This is one of the toughest things I've done. After over 40 years of silence, I'm calling out the sexual abusers I endured whilst a member of @scouts in Slough in the early 80's. They got away with it for too long. Were you there [email protected] youtu.be/lza5imcuD4A

My dad was tortured by the Gestapo for 4 days and thrown in a concentration camp for being in the Norwegian Resistance. Growing up, he would tell me things he learned in the Resistance. I thought, I'm never going to need this stuff. Here's some of those things #Thread

No, but if you’re looking for one, I am aware of a guy you work with that was indicted four times and convicted of thirty-four felonies.

I am a proud mentor at MCR Pathways. For just one hour a week, I spend time with a young person in a school local to me, supporting them on their journey to a brighter future.

Former 🇺🇸 ambassador to Russia 👇🏽

Kamala was right. And it only took him less than 30 days to roll over for Putin.

⭑彡 #LUFC 2-1 Sunderland: Not very sensible Even without a ledgerful of injustices you could feel, in the crisp air of a February night in Beeston, someone somewhere thumping their fist on a dusty old book and cheering on Illan Meslier. 👇 🔗 www.leedsista.com/le...

Isn't it ironic. After decades of paranoia about "Reds Under The Bed", America failed to notice who was IN BED with the man they elected.

LANDMARK: Pascal Struijk becomes the first Leeds substitute to score TWO goals that originated from set-pieces in a single game in the club's history. NEVER. BEEN. DONE. BEFORE. lufcdata.com | #LUFC

About 50 years ago, I was reading political thrillers, including several by Fletcher Knebel. His 1966 novel, NIGHT OF CAMP DAVID, centers on a U.S. president who has gone insane. Signs of insanity include: desire for (a) an alliance with the USSR, and (b) annexation of Canada.

Putin is so serious about peace. He bombed Chernobyl 48 hours ago.

😬😬Feels like it😬😬

Jesus. This is pretty eye-opening and as clear a break James has ever made, good for him. Really shows what a miserable bastard Rupert Murdoch is and undeniable proof that billions of dollars can’t buy an ounce of personal happiness or ‘family harmony’ 😬

Wilder…you jammy shit. Every time you get my hopes up with a woeful performance, you always seem to pull something out the bag. Why?!?!? #lufc

Come on Luton…help a team out here…🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼 #lufc

AUSA Hagan Scotten, former clerk for John Roberts, really put some mustard on his resignation letter.
