People are dunking on Episcopalians for this, but this is an unmitigated victory for us. We got the Catholics (Notre Dame), Presbyterians (the Orange), Methodists (Dook), and Baptists (Wake Forest) to come and bend the knee. We threw holy water at a demon and a devil. We won.

[name but also a little joke @bearsaremean]

when he was the head coach at Ole Miss rumors began that he was going to take the same job at Auburn. He said he'd be at Ole Miss for life. “They’ll have to carry me out of here in a pine box,” Tuberville said.

two days later he was announced as the head coach at Auburn.

[name but also a little joke @bearsaremean]

when Tuberville was the head coach at Texas Tech he took some recruits out to dinner, during which he got a call from his agent offering the head coach job at Cincinnati.

He went to the bathroom, took the job, then left the restaurant without ever telling the recruits.

they know we have inner lives, they are uninterested in them! Men are, by and large, relentlessly un-curious about women. It serves them to know as little about us and our interiority as possible😅

[Gender Arminian 🇱🇸 @duns_sc0tus]

Amazing how many men seem to openly think the vast majority of women just don’t have inner lives or something

"If it's true, I want Putin, his entourage, Putin's friends and his government to know they will be held responsible for what they have done to our country, my family, and my husband. And that day will come very soon."
