House Republicans, of course, have access to the same data and very likely know this. They passed the SAVE Act anyway knowing that it wouldn't make it through a Senate filibuster, so that they can argue later that any election the Democrats win is rigged

Some breaking news in the Vladyslav Heraskevych / IOC situation: Heraskevych has appealed to the Court of Arbitration for Sport to have him reinstated. If reinstated, he would take two official runs tonight or tomorrow prior to the medal runs at around 7 PM CET Story: www.slidingonice.com?p=13862

Given THESE Olympics, are we sure that is a mistranslation

unfortunate google translate error in this Dutch news story explaining why Bente Kerkhoff missed the 5,000m

"Trump said Tuesday that he did not like the haphazard way DOGE downsized the federal workforce, saying he 'didn’t want a general cut.'" -- more of Trump claiming after the fact that he didn't want a thing he clearly wanted Musk to do, once it backfired. Just endless, bottomless lying

Final luge race of the Olympics comes up at 12:30 PM ET with the always exciting Team Relay! Sliders will have a reaction start the moment the paddle is hit by the previous slider, so not only do you have to have a good slide, you've got to do that too. Here's what that looks like! (FIL video)

Scientist's way of saying 'I ❤️ you' "I found this paper/preprint that made me think of your project." "I checked the mice/cells/plates already." "I just sent you the edits you requested." "I have a slide/diagram that will work for that." "I had that problem with [lab equipment], I have a fix."

My Norwegian-American sports-fan wife assures me that the girlfriend's statement “It was touching to see that Sivert was included in the victory" should be read as, "I see my good-for-nothing ex is being a narcissist again while the rest of the team mourns the recent death of their teammate."

Yesterday, someone made a Dungeons & Dragons analogy for vaccines in our (Facebook) comments. I don't play or understand D&D, so I asked our Preparedness Coordinator to explain. I still don’t understand it, but he said this analogy will be understood by people who do! Anyway, please get vaccinated.

This is malpractice from NBC for not telling the audience that all these people were at this game. But sure, let's zoom in on an NFL player who is at every game, and talk about him for 15 minutes even though we've already done that three days in a row.

I am intrigued by the newish (at least to me) blade design on the figure skates everyone is wearing. My google searches are not getting me the info I want to know.

okay so I actually just got off the phone with some UTEP and travel industry people if anybody is interested in a quick thread about "what an athletic department does when they wake up and see the FAA has closed their airport"

i'm shipping the Credit Card Fraud biathlete and the Cringe Cheater Crying On TV biathlete. they can fix each other

I, for one, am relieved that the messiest athletes at these Olympic games are also the ones that are most heavily armed.
