Aside from the obvious Trump “two weeks” joke, is it a good idea to tell your enemy when you’re planning to pack it in? Is that what winning looks like?

I completely agree, my only proviso is it isn’t just “this site”. Twitter was the same and so was every message board I’ve been on, to some degree (admittedly a pretty short list). The biggest problem of mass social media sites is the scale. Unfortunately that’s also their biggest selling point.

"There will be no balls for charity," the president said mournfully, "and none for fancy dress. There will be none held for pleasure, which, quite frankly, are the balls I like best."

I think a desperate all-hands-on-deck moonshot effort to build EVs affordably is the only thing that could save any western automaker from being completely cooked

As usual, I reserve my heartiest FUCK YOU to the Republican leaders who could stop this, who know perfectly well they should stop it, and who instead roll over in abject fear of this evil but weak man.

Trump to the UK and Europe: "The U.S.A. won’t be there to help you anymore." RIP Special Relationship RIP NATO Putin's glee must be sickening.

"Have corporations pay their fair share!" [Makes companies pay the actual cost of delivering their ads] "No, not like that!"

The vast majority of what gets mailed is from businesses. Having a heavily subsidized postal service is just corporate welfare under a different name.

Bottom line here is we will be in an unquestionably worse strategic position as a result of this war. But at least we'll also be in a worse economic position, too

The most important factor in hiring the Leafs next GM is the understanding that he will be the one who has to trade Auston Matthews

Even in this shitstain of a season, old man Tavares is on pace for close to 30 goals and 70 points. What a guy.

I mean, when you write it all out like that it sounds insane and like an organization without any clear plans and… oh. Oh no.

Not to relitigate, but just an absolutely insane sequence of events where Dubas was ready to move off “we can and we will” and trade Marner, Shanahan said no, Dubas played an “it’s me or him” card, the Leafs chose Shanny, and then all three of them were gone within 15 months.

They have been fairly public in saying they don’t want a rebuild and believe this is all just bad injury luck and that’s why I think the next hire will be heroically awful.

This is delusional, and reflects a level of disconnection from knowledge about internal American political debates that actually explains some of Israel's behavior over the past few years. The Iran War is going to harm Israel's standing in the US, on right and left, like nothing else ever has.

Not going to celebrate firing Treliving until I see who replaces him.

Will never understand letting an exec handle the trade deadline when you know you're about to fire him but hey, better late than never, Leafs

Ben Gvir is a Kahanist, an ideology that goes far beyond Zionism and embraces Jewish supremacy—and he is Israel’s Minister of National Security. Thread:

His “targeted comments” were homophobia. Good for the Bulls.

I mean it's just breathtaking, it's taken one month from "we've killed your supreme leader and are demanding regime change" to "well I guess you guys officially own one of the key strategic chokepoints on which the world energy trade relies now"

I mean I just can't even find words. The US defense secretary helping plan a massive, destabilizing surprise war - a war the US has immediately LOST - and then using his insider knowledge to make stock bets so he can personally get rich? Hard to think of worse corruption, anywhere, ever.

This has to be the most Nikola Jokic answer imaginable.

It’s very funny to include the “far left” here when the DSA mayor of New York City just ran an entire campaign on affordability and making cities work while his main opponent ran on Israel, a country almost 6,000 miles away

Colorado Avalanche - on pace for 121 Points Dallas Stars - on pace for 111 Points Minnesota Wild - on pace for 104 Points Change that to their 82 game pace against Eastern Conference teams only: Colorado - 110 Point Pace Dallas - 94 Point Pace Minnesota - 90 Point Pace

Republicans want you to pay more for your healthcare in order to fund their pointless war with Iran.

CBS turned their news operation into propaganda, kicked Colbert off the air for making too much trouble, and all that just to have Charles Barkley go on the air on one of their most-watched telecasts of the year and say this lmao

There'll be more room above the name than below, so maybe write IMPEACH or JAIL or FUCK above the name. So many Trump bills are likely to be defaced that it will probably become a news story and a social phenomenon, and Trump will find that his exercise in egomania has backfired.

Look I’m an old leftist punk that brawled with nazi skins and I have literally nothing in common with these people but when I see a soccer mom with a Trans Kids Belong sign screaming FUCK ICE at the top of her lungs I whole heartedly welcome my unlikely new comrade

Evelyn Normielib is real and she is coming and there is no better place to meet her than a No Kings protest

thinking about the Twitter meme that The Art of War was an instruction manual written by Sun Tzu for ancient Chinese failsons but even the most dim-witted Chinese warlords of 2500 years ago had a better understanding of the real world than Nazi-Tattoo Pete

AWACS aircraft "provide senior leadership with time-critical information on the actions of enemy forces" but as Sun Tzu famously said: "if you know the enemy and know yourself, you have fallen for woke bullshit. a truly based general always rushes in without considering the opposing force"

I expected social Media direct access to celebrities to often make me think less of them as a group , I was surprised about journalist only bc I I thought they would know better, but how terrible and not smart high level important academics are has been a surprise, what is wrong with these people?

Barbara Fried, who for forty years was a professor of legal ethics at Stanford, was asked to stop filing documents on behalf of her son when she is not an attorney in his case. Shortly after, a letter supposedly from SBF arrived.

Took 40-odd years but Bruce has finally allowed "Born in the USA" to be used in a commercial. By the ACLU. Supporting birthright citizenship. Yeah.

Watch out. Looks like hackers are trying to grab control with people's accounts on this platform. I don't know where the exploit is being used, but I wouldn't click on any vidplay links or random links you get even from your mutuals.

This is the kind of thing that needs to be cracked down on at every level of the game. There was never any room to get to the net without going through the defenceless goalie. It’s an incredibly dangerous play and should be 5 + game and a suspension.

We might need to take this man's keys away, hope there are no serious injuries

Consider the possible state of the world (described below) where there is an AI-overbuild-generated financial crisis akin to the 2008 financial crisis. The scenario involves projected income flows from data centres falling short of debt payments, which then cascades through the financial market.

Re-reading LOTR for the first time since I was a child and it’s very interesting in light of how much right wingers like to reference it.

You really can't exaggerate how squarely contrary this rhetoric is to the basic foundational precepts of this country. These people *hate* the actually existing United States.

Pierre Poilievre chimed in to agree with JKR’s vile tweet.

This should be an impeachable offense. I understand that we’re way past any of that, but that shouldn’t stop us from naming it.

Add this to the "those Bible verses about antichrists weren't meant to warn us about just one specific guy, but if they were, here he is" pile. Revelation is about Caesar behavior. "No one can buy or sell who does not have the brand, that is, the name of the beast"

This is correct. I think the underlying issue this piece kinda of elides tho is that a bunch of Americans online are convinced that they are communists, when they are actually just libertarians who use leftist rhetoric to rationalize their libertarianism.

I'm fucking crying. I love these guys so much. Go Jays

Let's, and I cannot stress this enough, fucking go

On this day in 1987, Blue Rodeo released its debut studio album Outskirts. The album included Try, which hit #1 in Canada. The album went 4x platinum in Canada and peaked at #20. The album won three Junos including Best Group and Single of the Year.

Seizing small outposts remote from the enemy capital, setting up indefinite naval blockades, and doing more bombing (and landing troops) — those three famous types of final blows that are known throughout history to end wars on the spot

I assume this is from the episode where Lilith shows the gang how to deal with Gary's Olde Towne Tavern once and for all?

There is something profoundly unserious about demanding the country spends vast sums on reducing its carbon emissions and then calling for a massive fossil fuel subsidy to consumers the moment gas prices rise.
