Going bankrupt buying Laneige skincare product.

Aonishiki is an amazing story because his college plans were completely derailed by the (second) invasion of Ukraine and he fled to Japan and rose very quickly to ozeki. He had been a World Junior Sumo participant while in Ukraine and was very good.

Hand to You Know Whomst, this is someone’s FB profile photo, and it’s the funniest thing I’ve seen all day.

*John Schneider voice* way to go, twelves

You know the game is a blowout when they cut away to the booth to talk about an award the play-by-play guy won.

I mean, it’s good peanut better, the bear doesn’t need to seduce me as well.

I need all of you to read this opening paragraph about the Atom Bowl. Note the date and location.

lol

Walter Kirn says that the song "Fortunate Son" is not an anti-war anthem, but is actually a class anthem, and is in fact a pro-military anthem for today's military because the troops aren't "fortunate sons" and they do cool things. Matt Taibbi agrees.

Rep. Wesley Hunt: "The bottom line is this: when a federal officer gives you instructions, you abide by them and then you get to keep you life"

i keep saying "dhs is only 24 years old" because i need you to take that fact under your jacket and keep it warm and peeping like a baby bird. it's only 24 years old! it's yet another thing inflicted us by the bush administration post-9/11!

Insane front page headline on the National Enquirer: TRUMP WILL SOLVE JON BENET’S MURDER

It’s so hard being a prophet. (Posting your idiot thoughts from your desk at DOD.)

I was reading about Kūya, a Pure Land patriarch, and I love this 13th century depiction of him from the Roluharamitsu-ji in Kyoto. He wears a gong around his neck and holds a striker in his hand, with figures coming out of his mouth representing his public recitation of nembutsu.

Not surprising given it’s the Raiders and the team was horrifically bad but I continue to be confused by the NFL just being fine with Brady being on FOX’s A pairing and also being some sort of quasi-GM in Vegas. It just looks really bad.

Embrace the following explanation for whatever this administration does: these are stupid people doing stupid things for stupid reasons.

pretty decisive from a readership getting fed expansionist propaganda

RIP to all the other empires that lost the Mandate of Heaven because of their hubris, but America is different. And better. Maybe even better than The Gods

4/So what is going on? @segoddard.bsky.social and I argue the confusion is people using old models of global politics. This is not balancing or spheres of influence. It is international politics based on elite cliques rather than national interest i.e. neo-royalism. www.cambridge.org/core/journal...

We must imagine the Rodgler happy.

lol

Rodgler late game heroics? In 2026?

we don't use that word here. you are going off the rails on a train experiencing a mental health crisis

Tommy Togiai gets a thicc six when the Colts pitchy pitchy woo woo goes horribly wrong

I had a completely stupid thought but one that is not implausible: what if Trump saw the Nobel go to Machado and he thought he would be a lock for the prize if he one-upped her by taking out Maduro?

Happy 70th to Barney.

Ah, a trustworthy source.

💙💚 Seattle, this one felt GOOD. 💚💙 Huge congratulations to the Seattle Seahawks on an absolutely dominating win and locking up the #1 seed. YOUR CITY will be loud. The 12s are ready. We are all in. Let’s bring that energy all the way through the playoffs. Go Hawks! 💙💚

lol unreal conversion

Oh that turnover was beautiful. They should show it a few more times.

Not sure this is the kind of move you want to make if you are looking at a potential government shutdown on 1/30/26.

The same editorial board described Seattle’s mayor raising taxes to pay for childcare as a totalitarian power grab

Wisconsin judge convicted of obstructing arrest of immigrant resigns as GOP threatens impeachment trib.al/eVAYqaT

This WaPo unsigned editorial celebrating this as a victory for America is amazing. Step 1: US invades country and kidnaps president, and his wife for some reason Step 2: TBD Step 3: WaPo’s preferred candidate easily wins election

TEXAS STATE WINS THE ARMED FORCES BOWL

Pop-Tarts Bowl is both the weirdest bowl and also the most popular non-playoff bowl and I think that says good things about the CFB audience.

Not a great football game but fun for me!

Lockheed Martin ad during the Lockheed Martin Armed Forces Bowl touting the Golden Dome missile defense system that doesn’t exist and will be forgotten once he’s dead.

I really feel for that Rice player carted off by EMTs. I’m glad he can move his arms.

The owner of this paper left Washington after we passed a excise tax on stock sales and exchanges. The thing is, he was one of the least civic-minded billionaires in a state that has a few of them. The only mark he has left on the city is that his company transformed SLU into a giant office park.

This is what the Space Needle looks like currently if you’re wondering how the fireworks show is going to go.
