April 14, 1993: Chicago Bulls fan Don Calhoun attends his first Bulls game in three years and throws in a 75-foot shot that wins him $1,000,000. Calhoun was selected to shoot because a Bulls employee felt his “suede hiking boots wouldn’t scuff the court."

BBC News leading all its bulletins on demands by former Government advisor Lord Robertson for more defence spending, without at any point mentioning his current paid senior role for US defence lobbyists

French Foreign Minister Jean-Noël Barrot, "Let us say to our British friends" "If they stand ready to return to the EU Single Market with all associated privileges and duties" "They will be be met with open arms" Sounds like a plan. Who's in?

I can't compete with this.

“Project Fear”

People get VERY sensitive about off-the-cuff comments famous people make

My response to your post is: Ew. It’s still Black History Month. Put some respect on Black women.

As Black History Month draws to a close, we celebrate the enormous contributions made by Black Americans and resolve to never allow the Trump Admin to erase, diminish, or whitewash that history. American history and Black history are one story.

It seems likely journalism will die on the hill that claims there is a vast, untapped conservative audience that will bring a news organization endless riches. The fact that that audience has been fully tapped out by Fox News and a veritable army of online grifters goes simply unnoticed. Sigh.

seems obvs to me that mamdani gets far because of his charm. why do "male self improvement" types always focus on things like looksmaxxing instead of personalitymaxxing or charmmaxxing?

Extraordinary that in these fractious & divided times, so many of us can unite around the single, simple fact that Matthew Goodwin is an irredeemable twat.

People do what you pay them to do. You pay corporate executives to make stock prices go up, not to make better products. You pay politicians to get re-elected, not to govern well. You pay reporters to get a bigger audience, not to tell the truth. And so forth. Be aware of what you pay people to do

Ingmar Bergman’s description of the creative process accurately reflects how normal human reasoning works (according to the research). Intuition decides, then intellect justifies.

Seeing a lot of the American discourse seems like a good time to share this again

it’s so cool everything is either a scam or designed to take away human rights or both now

Love this song and this musical genius! I've been lucky enough to see him a few times and he's SO fun live!

The Free Press is discovering new levels of Telling On Yourself that scientists previously thought could not exist

some of you are looksmaxxing when you need to be booksmaxxing

The drunk uncle theory. You don’t argue with the casually homophobic uncle at Thanksgiving dinner to change his mind; you argue so that the closeted cousin at the kids table knows there’s safe people and better possibilities out there

The announcer in the skating just said "she'll only be scored a level two on her twizzle" in a very serious voice

Ratcliffe is, quite obviously, factually, morally & intellectually wrong about immigration. But his racist comments will be 'both-sided' everywhere because people who simply don't like seeing non-white faces aren't ashamed to say so anymore.

kind of funny that an olympian said they are here to represent "compassion, respect, and love for others" and some people automatically knew that was a statement against them

This stupid part of winter calls for cheesy beef pasta and Bordeaux yassss

Sadly, this actually sounds totally possible.

Baroness Finn, stating that this would "risk a disproportionate intrusion into civil society", asks minister to confirm that the "current arrangements" will not change, but gets a strong response from Anderson:

i say this with love because everyone starts somewhere, but it's just that, sometimes you see someone with a massive platform and they're like "it kind of seems like republicans favor the rich?"

one of my strongest beliefs is that we're in our situation right now bc some of the most prominent talking heads (e.g. joe rogan, andrew schulz) are learning about politics in their 40s and 50s, instead of their teens and early 20s, and we have to go along for the ride as they learn basic things

Somehow, I was reminded of this…

“I look at the performative hand-wringing, all the ‘OMG can’t believe Starmer appointed him despite all this!’ and I feel I’m in a parallel universe. Starmer appointed him BECAUSE of, not despite it. To be our interface with a corrupt WH that operates in precisely the same way. Everyone understood.”

God I loved this film. It really was flawless.

what America needs is Converge playing the Super Bowl Halftime Show

ICE is NOT police. They are a makeshift militia funded by a Nazi mafia.

Can't have these bitches being uppity, that's for sure. Right Republicans????

The internet has become 99% ragebait Sad times friends

I am pleased to announce that I have commandeered my neighbor's home. This home will be sold at its Market Price, and that money will be controlled by me, to ensure it is used to benefit my neighbor and me! Thank you for your attention to this matter!

Not to be controversial but I think we should use tools and resources to make people's lives less miserable instead of more

One of humanity’s best ideas ever was taking the darkest time of the year, as cold temperatures set in, and doing celebrations with lights, loved ones, generosity, and food. Various cultures independently came up with something along those lines, and others picked it up. Fantastic idea, people.

What on earth is the point of caving on the farms inheritance tax stuff now? This government is determined to extract the maximum of political pain for the minimum of political gain

Andrew Tate looked cream crackered by round 4 of whatever that was. We should just make a new boxing division called "Media Personalities who could do with a slap"

You’re telling me the winner of last week’s FIFA World Peace Prize is provoking international conflicts??

The guy that owns the X platform is a literal Neo-Nazi that has broken democracy in the USA, is encouraging civil war in the USA and wants to do the same in Europe too, yet they banned me for 12 hours for joking about throwing someone right wing in the sea, serves me right for being pro-democracy 😂
