@alexbrasky Just a hilariously stupid tweet. I’m aware that expecting competence or basic intelligence out of Western NY is a bridge too far but come on. It’s been 20 years since Carolina (not an expansion team) played in a final. This is a long time outside Buffalo (an expansion team)
The Republican party is so bereft of any actual policy that doesn’t protect pedophiles, enrich billionaires, or coddle Israel that they’re essentially running on “I eat lots of Mexican food” in California and “my opponent doesn’t eat BBQ” in Texas. Very unserious people.
Spencer Pratt went all-in defending his love of Mexican culture -- noting he's probably eaten more Mexican food than any white guy in Los Angeles.

@reisner_steven@CallerAngry@AlligatormattM You’re fucking exhausting man. You do this shit like once a week. You’re so weirdly bitter. I know tons of union men and not one of them is as obnoxious and insecure as you. See a therapist, you’ve got enough money apparently.
Ted Cruz spends $43,000/mo on food. $1,400/day. When he's not sending your kids to die for Israel he just eats and drinks 24/7. Just a big fat bitch of a man.
This New York Times piece is worth your time. Here’s what is happening, as simply as I can put it.
Back in January, Trump sued the IRS, an agency he controls, demanding $10 billion over the leak of his tax returns a number of years ago.
IRS lawyers did their jobs. They wrote a memo laying out the defenses that could beat the suit, including the fact that Trump filed too late. His own lawyer was in court when the leaker pleaded guilty in October 2023, more than two years before Trump sued.
The Justice Department never showed up to court. Never argued back. Never used the defenses sitting on their desk.
The judge got suspicious and ordered both sides to explain whether they were actually opposing each other or just colluding. The day before that brief was due, Trump dropped the suit.
Same day, his Justice Department announced a $1.776 billion taxpayer-funded “anti-weaponization fund.”
Trump gets a formal apology. The IRS agrees to drop any audits of him and his family, even though a 2024 Times report found a loss in an ongoing audit could cost him over $100 million.
The acting Attorney General, Trump’s former criminal defense attorney, picks the five commissioners who decide who gets paid. Trump can fire any of them. Proud Boys and Oath Keepers are not ruled out.
This is the most corrupt thing I’ve ever seen from an American president.
Where in the hell are my Republican colleagues?

COLLINS: “What about Trump’s promise to lower gas prices?”
JORDAN: “That’s life.”
@kaitlancollins: “If someone’s paying more for⛽️, saying ‘that’s life’ might not make them feel better.”
@Jim_Jordan: “Those are your words, not mine.”
COLLINS: “No you said that. Just now.”😬
This is just a robbery. The president sues his own government and then pressures them to settle. He wants them to give him billions… of our money. This might be the worst case of corruption ever. A president directly robbing the citizens he’s supposed to serve and protect.
On top of being the only legitimate top six forward on the team, Pastrnak appears to be one of the only players who gives a shit. Make him the captain and do whatever you can to ice a contender around him.
Just want to say that loyalists in the north of Ireland regularly burn effigies of Catholics on giant bonfires and carried out an anti Roma pogrom last year and...the British state did nothing.
A friend of mine who works in rare books mentioned today everyone he knows is getting weird, big orders from the same buyer this week for "long tail books"—decades-old textbooks, private press niche history, unremarkable but rare titles just collecting dust.
Obviously AI, right?
The atmosphere in the Pentagon is reportedly in "disarray," with senior officials fearing that the internal cohesion required for a functioning military has been severely damaged by Hegseth’s leadership. https://t.co/QOs1vNVAUD
