Argh.

They’re expressing regret because there has been a backlash, not because they actually care nor disagreed.

The entire problem of coddling elite male athletes and placing them in a bubble of admiration based on a physical skill set ends in people who can’t understand how the rest of the world works. Their belief in their own prowess blinds them to the fact nefarious people may use them for bad purposes.

This is so stupid and I laughed like a drain

25 February 1931 | A German Jewish boy, Gert Wolfgang Schönfeld, was born in Berlin. In February 1943 he was deported to #Auschwitz and murdered in a gas chamber. --- ▶ A short video about gas chambers and crematoria of the Auschwitz camp: https://youtu.be/-A05i25j9Ck

Definite yes.

The Danielle Smith and PP effect.

So the chat bots are into csam and … nukes? Honestly a little ‘80s to have my choices be dying in an authoritarian system race between resource extraction and a computer who likes mushroom clouds

You lost me at Facebook.

For two players who really struggled with the speed of the Olympic game and contributed nothing to the US victory the Tkachuks sure do think highly of themselves. They’ll never understand that they’re loathed because of their outsized egos not their idiotic play. www.ctvnews.ca/ottawa/artic...

So Trump basically admitting their win was a complete fluke.

The Kremlin couldn’t do better.

This is insane. The US is just a giant frat house now.

Live shot of the SOTU.

Jesus! The Politburo was more restrained than this.

CNN hoping against all hope that Trump will change.

Actually CNN itself is idiotic.

These CNN voters are remarkably dumb.

Exactly! Through both administrations, NOT ONE other accomplice has been charged!

I'm constantly trying (/failing) to get this point across. If you're a trained expert in a field, then it may be worthwhile to question the scientific consensus of your peers. If you're not, the scientific consensus is absolutely the best you can do and it's arbitrary foolishness to disregard it.

Yup. Like it’s so obvious. Iran will be fully aware as well that it’s the optimal time to strike so there’s that.

He’s going to announce Iran strikes during SOTU, isn’t he

You think "the online left" is unhinged, dog please talk to an independent voter IRL. They want universal healthcare and abolish taxes. They want to dissolve the coast guard. They want to rename the army the coast guard. They want their alien implants removed, and they also want more alien implants

I mean this is the most church counselor way of putting it, but intelligence by itself is nearly worthless. wisdom and prudence and discernment are necessary qualities for intelligence to be useful. innumerable religious scriptures have tried to explain this but yr tech bros aren't big on books

My God. Have these people not been following the years long PR disaster that is the NHL’s inclusion non policies?

"In one fell swoop Team USA managed to alienate a huge portion of the current NHL fanbase in the United States, undermine many of the initiatives the league has been trying to make, and turn off the precise segment of the sports market hockey has been trying so desperately to gain."

First question I gace is how was he able to vote if he was here illegally? Second question is how do these people function with 1/3 of a brain?

Congrats to the US Team on Gold. Now your reward for getting dommed for 45 minutes and winning only by the skin of your teeth through a superhuman goaltending effort is to sit and watch the Orange Man take all the credit. Have fun boys.

an intimately related but separate thing is that americans, and honestly most non-canadians, simply cannot comprehend the concept of living tree jurisprudence. the idea that laws, or –god forbid– treaty obligation can evolve over time is anathema to originalism.

What would you rather do? A) Go to the White House and listen to Trump rattle on aimlessly and maybe shit his pants. B) GO TO VEGAS AND PARTY WITH FLAVOR FLAV!!!!! One would have to be certifiably insane to choose A over B.

Formal invitation to the hockey team sent,,, if any people with connections to the hockey team wanna have them email my team my bio. I’m for real. 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾

The magic of Trump - the thing that kept him viable even after the insurrection - was this central appeal: I’m a piece of shit and you can be a piece of shit too and there’s nothing anyone can say or do about it.

Brian with words I wish I would have written.

Buy it they said. It’s fully liquid they said.

I’m not picking on him but the dark comedy lies in the fact the US lectured the world holding themselves up to be a paragon of virtue and rule of law with the greatest founding fathers and a constitution and governing structure the envy of the world. And it was brought down by Trump? Trump! LOL

As a Canadian I saw the video and just burst out laughing at just how deranged it is. The man just can’t give any credit to anyone else ever. And people still love him. At this point the US could elect Putin and I wouldn’t be surprised.

Multiple people worked and paid taxes over the course of their entire lives so Kash Patel could go to a hockey game.

Only three more nights without Habs hockey.

The dynamics of this get particularly interesting if Reform wins a majority with like, 25% of the vote and treats it like they have a complete mandate from heaven.

Storage units? How much of this stuff IS THERE?

Britain plays such a weird role in US discourse. The US right imagines us as a fallen nation, under Sharia law and with streets not safe to walk on. The US left seems to need to imagine we're wildly more racist even than the US, and seem willing to throw disability advocacy under the bus to do it.

Name a cover of a song that you love more than the original. youtu.be/TE_ju8eWTS8?...

The entire problem with US analysis is they are absolutely unable to ever view themselves as a problem and if you would dare suggest it they would stare agape at you as if you had just farted loudly in the Vatican during a Pope’s funeral.

Oh fuck off.

All due respect to Micah I think you should know their politics because it makes you realize just now meaningless sports are in the overall picture. Knowing how shitty some players can be made me rethink who I consider to be a hero and relegated hockey to an enjoyable pastime where it belongs.
