911, I need to report a murder...

[Hugh Laurie @hughlaurie]

Thanks for your critique, Janet. We actually tried a couple of episodes where House (Hugh Laurie) (please put the brackets in the right place) gets it right first time, but they were only 6 minutes long. NBC weren’t happy. Then we tried some where House never gets it right and the patient dies. The audience wasn’t happy.

One could apply your trenchant analysis to other art forms: JS Bach wrote 30 Goldberg variations on the same chord structure; Frida Kahlo painted 50 portraits of herself; Henry Moore, what??

The point is, or was, variations on a theme; if all you see is hospital, medical blah blah, then it wasn’t meant for you.

Nonetheless, I look forward to your first novel!

In 1959, a broke and struggling Bayern Munich tried to sign 18-year-old Pelé.

And for a moment, they almost pulled off the signing of the century. 🇧🇷🔴

Bayern didn’t just send an email.

They made him spend his entire summer holiday in bavaria just to recruit him.

For decades, Germans thought it was a myth.

Then pele confirmed it himself.

He admitted bayern's offer was the most serious and well structured offer.

He was interested. Bayern had the papers ready. Deal almost sealed.

So what stopped the transfer?

Extreme homesickness. He missed Santos and flew back.

Shortly after, brazil declared him a "national treasure" and blocked him from leaving Santos ever again.

The closest Europe ever came to watching Pelé every week was a broke Bayern Munich in 1959.

If you like football history like this, you’re in the right place.

An Albanian woman explains why RIOTS are erupting across ALBANIA.

Two names she mentions; Ivanka Trump and Albania’s PM Edi Rama.

Albanians are accusing their government of selling out the country while ordinary people pay the price.

[ANGELO @angelofenks277]

In 1974, bayern had won their first European Cup trophy.
And flew back as kings of europe🏆.

No one went home to rest.

They all partied hard all night.
And By sunrise, it was pure chaos.

Some players were obliterated they didn’t even make it home.

They had a league match against Mönchengladbach in less than 24 hours.

Some players were reportedly found in parks, snoring under the trees like legends.

Moments later they got into the match and played half drunk, still hangover.

The got absolutely demolished 5-0 in that match.

Afterwards?
They went straight back to partying hard.

Because lesson learned was optional 😂🍻.

Football in the 70s was a different universe💀. #FCBayern

@HunterBiden Hey Hunter, I'm a 55-year-old man who gets choked up emotionally by a lot of your tweets.

Please don't stop.

Keep going.

We need more of this.

We need to be better, and you might be the one to make it happen.

[J. A. M. Stefan @jamstefan]

There's nothing more powerful than a man who's seen hell, been broken into tiny pieces, then climbed out and put himself back together.

The sheer humanity, grace, and understanding is so moving and inspiring.

All the hate thrown at @HunterBiden just makes him stronger.

[Hunter Biden @HunterBiden]

If you think I’m trashing MAGA (whatever that is now) I really am sorry. I know for certain there are millions of Americans who voted for Donald Trump that love this country and love their neighbors and love their families and struggle and succeed and fail just like me and you and everyone. And I don’t begrudge them their political affiliation in any way. I just abhor the hate. The meanness for the sake of being mean. No matter where it’s coming from. I’m not your enemy man. I’m really not. They’re trying to get us to fight among ourselves while they pick our pockets and piss on our legs and tell us it’s raining. I’m not doing that to you and I sure as hell know you’re not doing that to me. What could we possibly gain by hating each other as they walk off with all the food on the table. We can disagree with each other without hating each other. We just all need to break the algorithm man. It’s so much more fun finding a reason to love someone than it is finding a reason to hate them.

[J. A. M. Stefan @jamstefan]

This.

[Sean @ThatDudeSeanX]

For almost a decade they turned @HunterBiden into the ultimate villain. The laptop, the drugs, the scandals. Nonstop.

Everything about him got weaponized, memed to death, and thrown around as proof the elite are straight rotten.

Dude got reduced to nothing... But now?

The second he starts spitting his real story, his struggles, the addiction, family pain, the whole lore...

The whole vibe shifts.

A ton of people are actually listening.
Agreeing with what he’s saying.
Following him heavy.
Sharing his posts.

And through all that raw talk, they starting to see what’s really going on in this country.

It’s wild as hell. The same dude they loved to hate turns into somebody worth hearing when he speaks for himself.

No filters, no spin, just straight honesty about the mess he lived through and the mess he sees everywhere.

Makes you think... maybe we've been fed these fake caricatures for so long that when somebody finally drops the act and talks real, it hits different.

Folks are starving for that authenticity. It cuts through all the noise and shows how broken the whole game is.

Hunter ain’t no saint, but watching this play out proves one thing... the truth hits harder when it comes from the person who actually lived it, not from the ones trying to bury him.

[J. A. M. Stefan @jamstefan]

This man is giving this app THE reason to exist.

[Hunter Biden @HunterBiden]

I don’t really think it’s about me Karoline. I think it’s about the idea that we all have fallen down and that we all wish we could be a little kinder to each other. And we all hope for a little grace and understanding when we get honest with ourselves and the world. And we all have that friend or brother or parent or son that has fucked up but fought to get back on their feet. Or that may be you. Or it may be the one that lost the battle and we are mourning them every day- and asking why couldn’t he fight for himself. Whatever it is- it’s not about me. It’s about all of us. So I genuinely ask you to forget about me- and reach out to someone you love who is struggling and tell them you’ll fight alongside them if they will fight for themselves.

[J. A. M. Stefan @jamstefan]

@mmpadellan @HunterBiden Americans love an underdog/redemption story more than anything else.

He might be the MAGAverse's kryptonite.

He's been to hell and back. Nothing gives more power than that. It makes you lethal.

Just keep an eye on him. He can do what no one else can.

A Muslim passenger:
"Excuse me, can you turn off the music?"

The driver:
"Why?"

The passenger:
"Music is haram."

The driver:
"Why is music haram?"

The passenger:
"Because there was no music in the time of prophet Muhammad."

The driver:
"Well, get off then. There were no cars back then either. A camel will come pick you up."

There’s something deeply satisfying about watching @HunterBiden mop the floor with these soulless, broken-beyond-repair assholes. The sheer brutality and elegance of it gives me a delicious high.

[Hunter Biden @HunterBiden]

I see your profile picture. That’s Johnny Cash. My hero too. Arrested seven times. Smuggled 668 amphetamines across the Mexican border in 1965. Took every drug there was and drank like I did. Cheated on his first wife. Slept with more woman than I ever did. Hit bottom in a cave in Tennessee in 1968 trying to crawl off and die. And then he got up. He got clean. He spent the rest of his life singing for prisoners and addicts and the people the country threw away because he knew he was one of them.

That was the whole point of the Man in Black. He wore it for the poor and the beaten down. He wore it for the prisoner who has long paid for his crime. He wore it for the ones who never heard a word of Jesus. He wore it for the addicted and the dying. He wore it as a standing witness that no one is past saving.

You picked his picture. You did not pick his message. Try listening to the words.

Hausmann tiene las santas bolas de afirmar que la estrategia de @potus y @secrubio para venezuela está errada cuando todavía estamos en la etapa 1.
Esta soberbia tan característica del venezolano "académico" tiene que ser estudiado algún día por la psicología. No puede ser que sea tanto y tanta gente con el mismo patrón de comportamiento.
