Mike Lee needs to think hard about how the views of people who agree with his politics dovetail with their belief that he's going to hell due to his religious affiliation.

I'll take this consolation

If someone wants to argue that Platner is being smeared by *falsehoods*, then fine. Make your case. Rationalizing it all as “well, we need to beat Trump” is a signal to all voters that Democrats are hypocrites. Winning matters, values don’t.

"we need that seat" has to yield to "we cannot elect a person like this, even if it costs us the seat, the downstream impact is just too negative"?

No, I don't have "theory of mind" for people who think that *crossing arms during the national anthem* by someone who's not even American is some sign of hatred of the country.

I don't believe election conspiracists should be catered to or humored. With that said, Hollywood could unleash its best videographers and doc producers to capture the full LA mayor vote count process and make it clear who's not worth listening to.

Wow, a Utah legislator pulled their classic "You can still have this lesser thing" with the Shark Tank guy. Usually they only do that to us commoners.

Happy Pride Month to everyone who's here as a refuge from the bigotry on other platforms

And you know when Vrabel makes a connection beyond football, it means something.

As an Eagles fan, I will accept anything after being able to watch a stress-free 4th quarter of a Super Bowl win. Been a fan since the 80s and it's all gravy now.

I accept fans being mad at the Spurs for their draft lottery luck. Just don't leave out the part where their best player had a life-threatening blood clot and had to be shut down instantly last season. That's all.

two best chase down blocks of all time: LeBron and Kornet

Just need to document the sequence: 1. Wemby gets 5th foul 2. Checks out at 6:48, Kornet checks in 3. Reggie Miller says, "I'd put Wemby back in at the 5-minute mark" 4. Kornet makes the block at 6:32 5. Wemby checks back in for Kornet at 5:59 Kornet played 59 seconds of the 4th quarter

You can be like me and wholesale hate the New York Giants just to be safe

One of my strongest takeaways from the Bee this week is that it was a showcase for why critical thinking matters more than ever. So much of what the kids do up there isn’t rote memorization—it’s using their insane prep to solve words like puzzles (using etymology, patterns) in real time.

"We don't cancel just because we disagree" being proved false by those who say it for the infinitieth time.

Actually it's not too surprising to learn a lot of conservative voters see Talerico's "heresy" as worse than the state AG's adulterous impeachable corruption, sadly.

Anyone who wanted Tottenham relegated... sorry you had to rely on Everton

"People can have their opinions!" Let me know if anyone calls for Jaxson Dart to be fired or "get that SOB off the field," or if all the league owners have an emergency meeting to try to stop players from appearing at political rallies. That's what was done (including by a US president) to Kap

I'm from Pennsylvania and mostly root for Philly teams, but was never a Sixers fan. I'm a Spurs fan since 1990, long story. So I'm equally as angry as Sixer fans about the Jared McCain trade, just for a different reason.

RIP Rob Base. One of his bars from the iconic 1988 track is my profile bio on this site.

Giants suck. Go Birds. And the nerve of the Giants QB to use a Philly (Rocky) song. (Yes I know at least half of my favorite team is maga too, sigh)

Not only did two neo nazi teens attempt to copycat the Christchurch mass shooting, the world's richest man falsely blamed trans people for it. Not a single outlet covered that he spread that disinformation.

Angels Appearing before the Shepherds, by Henry Ossawa Tanner, 1910

Worlds collided today. Was watching NFL schedule release videos, and my kids recognized popular (retired) YouTuber "MatPat" on the one for the Browns.

An extremely courageous person who meant a lot to so many people.

Primetime Cowboys-Giants games will continue until morale improves.

Dangerous as well

An irresponsible and immature play by Wemby. Hate it. Ejection was the right call. (And I'm a Spurs fan.)

When the Great Salt Lake dries up, I may try to secure a bag by betting on which elected official says, "You have no idea what we tried behind the scenes to save it! Please be more grateful."

More like Devin Vassal, since he’s so dependent on another Castle.

ok I don't agree with laws that make public schools display the Ten Commandments ... But maybe that would prevent this? Did these religious leaders not read Exodus 20 and most of the rest of Exodus?

Really we all should root for a Knicks-Sixers playoff series every year because it’s one of the few matchups where the teams commute back and forth via chartered Amtrak trains instead of chartered flights. Tons of C02 emissions saved (Sixers boarding train pics from 2024)

The unanimous approval without allowing public comment... let's just say Utah has kind of a reputation and this was right in line with it.

Congratulations from a 1992 Bee contestant

Delicate Arch hike

Huge win for the Spurs

The Republican men who pretend to care about women’s sports standing in front of the actual athletes really sums their whole charade up perfectly

I forgot that Bluesky is a hive for the most radical and dangerous coalition in our politics (Philadelphia sports fans)

Sixers and Flyers stole the Phillies talent like the Monstars.

They had a pitcher lose 26 straight starts when Giuliani was mayor, FYI

So there are ticks that make you allergic to red meat. That's a real thing.

Get to see the Flyers smack around the Penguins to take our minds off the Phillies' woes

Just your standard 7'4" hooper sprint-relocating and making an off the dribble 3 in the corner. #NBASky #SkyHoops #NBAPlayoffs

A major clash between Jesus's teachings and maga: Jesus taught to do good to others with no thought of reward, and not to "do alms before men." maga expects reciprocation, and the leader of the movement must get all credit to show how great the movement is.

"Personality goes a long way"

71 years ago today, Roberto Clemente made his MLB debut with the Pittsburgh Pirates. Batting third and playing right field, he went 1-for-4 in the Pirates' 10-3 loss to the Brooklyn Dodgers at Forbes Field. He singled off Johnny Podres in his first at bat for his first MLB hit.
