It is very funny because Platner tried it and it backfired

fellas can we reasonably expect a state rep from the austin area to go hard against UT football

The extremely funny bit is the Tomorrowland Transit Authority Peoplemover has probably 50x the throughput of the Loop at a lower cost

New report out today with my friends at Verasight writing up a couple new studies I designed on AI “digital twins” in polling. The upshot is basically these tools are very inaccurate unless you have raw polling data to build on (which defeats the purpose!)

“And that’s how Donald Trump caused the EV revolution”

🚨💣 BREAKING: Liverpool reach agreement in principle to appoint Andoni Iraola as new manager, here we go! 🔴🫱🏻‍🫲🏼 Exclusive story from Saturday, 100% confirmed: Arne Slot left and Iraola will lead #LFC project, as expected. Talks advanced over last 48h and deal in place.

All the best to King Kenny, hope he gets through this. Fuck cancer. #YNWA

Drake Maye had a stupid easy schedule last year and looked like garbage against any team with a pulse. Media just absolutely hates Jalen

High oil prices are a drag. They can tip us into recession, or cause slower job growth, but unless they get really, really crazy they won't cause a collapse. $200 Brent isn't nearly crazy enough. Though it might be bad enough to force Trump to give the house away.

I have previously proposed that the Green Lantern in Kingdom Come isn’t Alan Scott but instead Hal Jordan I come to you today with an alternative option: What if we sub out the Jim Corrigan Spectre for the DeMatteis-era Jordan one?

New Arc Villain; The Ring Leader: AH BATMAN, AS I LIVE AND BREATHE. WELCOME. TO MY CIRCUS OF DEATH. Batman, eyes squinting: god damn carnies. Vermin the lot of them. Dick Grayson: uh Batman you don't- Batman: a disgusting people. Never trust a man that's life can fit in a suitcase Robin.

Oh this is very good news indeed

Picturing a Nightwing/Deadpool crossover where Wade insists on calling Grayson “John Stamos”

The real choice if DC wanted to add secret ethnicity to a silver age character isn’t Dick Grayson. It’s Hal Jordan. Picture unrelated.

Nakamura Seisakusho, later known as Namco, was founded on this day in 1955 by Japanese businessman Masaya Nakamura. The first product the company made was a wooden mechanical horse ride. The rides were installed at department stores.

I have been informed James Milner has retired, making me older than any active EPL player Justin Verlander and Max Scherzer are not allowed to retire

I used to think I understood his point and that it was all just the combination of his distaste for legacy heroes with Batman’s popularity. Then I read that “what if I DID kill nightwing” one-shot, and…man, that was maybe the pettiest comic I’ve ever read, and I’ve read Excalibur volume 2.

I thought he was supposed to be Vulcan. Whole film makes a lot more sense now, of a sort.

Through supreme effort of will and the concentrated energy of 10,000 years of human sacrifice, the Emperor finally manages to move his rasped lips and truly speak. He asks for a Pepsi. The last Pepsi was made 18,000 years ago. Nobody knows what it is. Trillions die in the resulting religious schism.

On the one hand, diversity! On the other hand, this is the movie where Connery as Bond looks like this to pretend to be Japanese

It seems completely extraneous until you remember that when Scott Snyder was plotting it out, Dick was still Batman and would have been the main character of the story.

The whole Romani thing is just inherently unsalvageable by its very origin

dick/bruces relationship with the bat mantle is the classic father/son thing were bruce wants dick to be his successor but also would secretly be more impressed if he defies him to march his own path, while grayson is in 4D emotional hell on whether this will all be on the test tomorrow

It's also largely cognate to a classical idea. The "addition" is the notion that there is a "between." But whatever exists, its perfection is in God. Shrug.

I mean using masculine or feminine pronouns for the Holy Spirit has been an option in the Episcopalian Church for a while?

"Superman is ummune to vamperism cuz there is too much sunlight in his bloodstream" is ironclad internal logic. to fact check that tells me you hate this genre and are a sad person

When you've lost Matt Walsh, you've lost Middle MAGA-rica

Intriguing 🤔

Note that Wario is explicitly cast as careless capitalist in the Warioware series, which is also in opposition to Bowser’s focus on medieval-style invasion and territory grabs. Trump is Wabama whereas Putin is more of Bowser.

I must stop being in hock to my mortgage , I didn't vote for it , I'm going to live on a boat

It was like the US trans military ban, people being like ‘good trans people shouldn’t be collaborating in US imperialism’. The purpose of this has nothing to do with imperialism which will continue unabated and everything to do with elimination of trans people from the public sphere.

People saying ‘good I don’t want corporations scoring brownie points’ Like I don’t know how to tell you this but corporations that employs millions of people no longer even pretending to support queer people is bad! Do people understand how permission structures work?! Open the schools

Canceled

Blaze!

“Slot’s representatives had said on Friday that there was no change in the support from Liverpool. However, Liverpool believe that delaying the decision would have impacted next season and damaged preparations to re-establish themselves as one of England’s top clubs.” - Paul Joyce 👀

Can't not pull for Arsenal here. They're a rival but they are a real football club. PSG is...something different.

I am apparently collecting a decently sized group of priests and theologians as mutuals

Excited to find out just how much kip and bier was in the Liverpool dressing room this season

looking back this for no specific reason lol

Called it Pay me my money www.nytimes.com/athletic/682...

Totally unrelated but I just wanted to mention that I find it funny that Mephisto did a deal with Miles Morales (and... either Sam Alexander or Amadeus Cho) to rewind time and save the other Champions at the cost of different lives and then they all found out and that was it. Just one Arc.
