it’s funny how growing up I was constantly inundated with with “french are cowards! lol! white flag! surrender monkeys!” memes when in reality the average american is a servile bootlicking little bitch compared to the french who will riot at the drop of a hat
Never want to tell fans how to feel + I don’t think Larkin has handled this situation great by any means… but I give him an ounce of credit for 1) talking to media, 2) taking the boos opening night, and most importantly, 3) actually playing tonight!!
Justin Verlander and Max Scherzer, the old grandmasters, care deeply about the future of pitching. They have plenty of thoughts -- and a set of five rules -- to bring back the starter as we once knew him.

Horrific statements from Hasan Piker today in the New York Times comparing Israeli actions to Nazi Germany, Adolf Hitler, and the Holocaust that’ll surely be covered by CNN and condemned by every Democratic leader
Oh wait they’re from Israeli generals and officials
All the stories about Dolly Parton show she was charitable, humble, and inclusive, as well as had a great sense of humor and quick wit about her. Basically the best characteristics you can develop in yourself.
The accusation that I am antisemitic is appalling and fundamentally dishonest. Criticizing the actions of the Israeli prime minister, a military technology contract, or the executives who supply it is not the same as criticizing Jewish people. This critical and necessary dialogue is then dishonestly framed as being anti-Israel. To be clear, my views come from my own political convictions and should never be interpreted as hostility toward Jewish people, for whom I have deep love and respect. Everything I know about acting, activism, and humanism has been profoundly shaped by the Jewish friends, colleagues, and loved ones who have been integral and family throughout every point of my life.
This merger has real consequences for real people, and for the entire country. Scrutinizing the Ellisons, including Oracle’s business built on data, surveillance technology and government contracts, and the serious threat to editorial freedom and the loss of a livelihood for thousands of families, is fair and necessary. The $111 billion deal would hand one family control over CNN, HBO and Warner Bros., backed in part by foreign money whose influence on editorial decisions has never been fully explained to the public.
Lawmakers on both sides of the aisle have called for serious national security review, and regulators still haven’t given the public a real answer. Until they do, the merger shouldn’t move forward. Now is the time to dive boldly into all these issues, not step back or concede.
every news headline now is like Blueberries Will Kill You. Measles Is Back. Gas Costs Six Dollars. Gwyneth Paltrow Is Selling AI Drone Technology. You Are Being Watched. Three Billion More To Israel. like idk did we do it did we make america great again
