I’ve written about the strange way that just thinking about cyclists makes otherwise rational people furious, in the light of Jeremy Vine’s decision to no longer post his cycling video because of all the abuse. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Towards the end of this temper tantrum, Bondi implies that giving any kind of aid to someone the government is trying to detain is the same thing as giving out guns to gang members. Insanity.

While the gospels say that Judas led the Romans to Jesus, a new theory is gaining traction with some Biblical scholars. There is evidence, some say, that Judas merely shared Christ's location on an insecure group chat that accidentally included several Roman officials and journalists.

SORRY. Sorry. Have we seen this *incredible* news video coming out of Queensland? Wait for the witness/witnesses statement

“Russell (driver) felt threatened and left in a hurry…” These idiots are the biggest damn babies known to man. Crying for mama any chance they get.

American war planning usually takes place in highly secure facilities. But the Trump administration planned its strikes on the Houthis using a group chat—and accidentally included The Atlantic’s editor in chief, Jeffrey Goldberg. theatln.tc/IuULQFiY

Collier is doing so well. Love his progress. But he will be impossible to play in a competitive team if he can’t shoot. IMPOSSIBLE.

I love usaspending.gov and use it nearly daily at work. Absolutely plausible that DOGE is just sinking around in there. The level of information in there matches what they talk about because they don’t see any of the actual contracts.

For the visual learners...
