This is huge. I have to disengage FSD to keep from taking a dumb turn across traffic in Nashville every day.

[Whole Mars Catalog @wholemars]

Preferred routes!!! This is going to make a lot of people very happy.

You guys clearly don’t get it.

The value of legal is not determined at the time of closing.

It’s valued later when the contract is interpreted and enforced.

The value of a parachute isn’t determined when you pack it. It’s determined when you have to pull the cord.

Wow, great summer update coming soon.

The Supreme Court just agreed to hear the case of an 82-year-old Alaskan man whose $95,000 plane was seized by the state — over a single six-pack of beer.

Kenneth Jouppi was running a one-man air taxi service out of Fairbanks in 2012 when state troopers found alcohol on his 1969 Cessna. He was preparing to fly a customer and her groceries to Beaver, a remote village that bans alcohol possession. The conviction: a misdemeanor for alcohol importation. The penalty: total forfeiture of his plane.

Now the nation's highest court will decide whether that seizure violates the 8th Amendment's ban on excessive fines — a ruling that could reshape civil asset forfeiture law across the country.

Remember when they said Trump would get us into a full-blown war with Iran?

Times like these should make us all realize how lucky we were to have Trump, his strength and his resolve.

As SEC Media Days begins, my biggest question: Why is everyone so down on Tennessee?

* Won 8 games in "down" year in 2025
* Had the No. 1 scoring offense in the SEC with a first year QB
* Return a 1k yard rusher, elite WRs, four o-linemen
* Bring in one of best DCs in the game
* 3 of 4 biggest games at home

Know they have a first year QB - but when has Josh Heupel *not* made any QB work?

Think EVERYONE is sleeping on the Vols 🍊🍊

SEC Commissioner Greg Sankey at 2026 SEC Media Days:

"I do want to take a moment because we’re reminded as things happen rapidly in our lives, that as the years go on, we lose some people who are special to us. We experienced that with members of the media who would normally be with us today that we lost during the past year.

"Wes Rucker first was a Knoxville sports journalist who provided extensive coverage of the University of Tennessee athletics for over two decades."

[Michael Cauble @Cauble]

Finally some fire from SEC Media Days on Day 1!

"I certainly hope that our fans haven't cooled off, whether it's the grocery stores stocked up on mustard, or the sportis stores that they've got reinforcements on the golf balls, hopefully Knoxville is ready for his arrival"

Tennessee head Josh Heupel with the heat when asked about Lane Kiffin's return to Knoxville

Being an attorney is saying “But after this case gets resolved things will slow down a bit” over and over until you die.

@gordon_cassie No compatibility issues. Usually it’s a pain to figure out how to do something specific bc most of the documentation is written for Microsoft Word. But in the age of asking Claude or Harvey that’s less an issue

[Hunter Biden @HunterBiden]

Congratulations Spain!

[Jarvis @jarvis_best]

A second page from Biden's memoir has come out.

It's a weird one. It doesn't sound like the toaster was even plugged in?

@VolGov53 Martins is the equivalent of the first 3 combined FWIW

#Falcons owner Arthur Blank was asked about the USA potentially hosting the World Cup again in 2038:

“I haven’t heard anything officially, but I’d love to be part of that. I’ll be 120 by then.” 😂😂

[John Collison @collision]

There are plenty of airshow accidents (with crowd fatalities) to study and the Blue Angels have a 10% career fatality rate. You can both celebrate military aviation and require following rules that are written in blood.

[Isaac Saul @Ike_Saul]

I know very few people are actually going to download and read these things, but just to be clear: Trump is *not even alleging* that any election tallies were impacted, just that our systems are vulnerable to foreign interference. Which Ds and Rs have both been warning about for decades.

[Jon Favreau @jonfavs]

Good thing about this speech is that it's pretty easy to follow as long as you speak fucking lunatic

[Brooks @brooksbrasfield]

Embarrassing
