Haggis, shortbread and single malt scotch is really all you need

Exactly. It's disingenuous to call it a purity test to say "You shouldn't be beholden to right-wing billionaires pushing right-wing policies and right-wing candidates." newrepublic.com/article/2039...

Some good stories n here, even including a story that may or may not have been written by yours truly about Ferris State. www.uscho.com/2025/12/03/r...

Of course as a former governor she knows this, so she's just a fucking liar.

i made a video about the president's gutter racism against somali-americans and how a scandal became a smear became a call for de facto ethnic cleansing

Not that impressive, Indiana is a football school.

going through everybody's spotify wrapped

When it comes to Stribbees, I can rely on @stribrooks.bsky.social to hit the nail and keep hammering: www.startribune.com/brooks-trump...

Has anyone in the Minnesota GOP been asked to comment on this? Seems like that's the only thing any respectable journalist should be doing!

Could it be because he's a racist, antisemitic young Republican?

Very interesting fight in the comments going on here with half the people saying "PEOPLE ARE ONLY COMING UP WITH LITERARY WRITERS, STOP BEING SO CLASSIST" and the other half saying "PEOPLE ARE ONLY INCLUDING GENRE AUTHORS, DON'T BE A RUBE, IT'S NOT ABOUT POPULARITY" and you guys all need to chill.

Old Eastern European guy comes into the garage my kid works at, where they’re discussing Christmas movies and someone said something about the Grinch. Old Guy: “I do not know this ”Grinch”. Kid’s boss shows Old Guy a picture of the Grinch on his phone. Old Guy:”That is one nasty son-of-bitch, no?”

OK so we had the volume on low and I didn’t realize that Jack and Eminem did a HELLO OPERATOR rap mashup, so he did actually do a deep cut for the real heads, he’s the GOAT

Smarmy little fucker

Jack White is the king of “indie dudes love sports too” representation matters baby

Eminem showing up as a special guest for Jack White’s Detroit Lions halftime show? Would only be made better if he brought out the Insane Clown Posse next. youtu.be/Qk2HD8-UtO4?...

thinking of her today

I need everybody to read this and understand what’s going on. These are spouses of US citizens in the country legally. They have entry clearance and green cards, they’ve passed background checks and have no criminal records. ICE is taking them anyway. Gift link: www.nytimes.com/2025/11/26/u...

Herman Mellville’s take on the “crab Rangoon, things of that nature“ Tweet

This is called “chain refoulment” and it’s illegal under both U.S. and international law. And the State Department and ICE know very well what Ghana is doing and simply don’t care.

All of the Pittsburgh journalists who stayed on strike for three years are heroes. Salute.

Underrated part of this interview to me is how dumb and lame he makes Liz Collin look for not knowing who he is. Should have been a red flag 15 years ago.

Incredible stuff here. No joke I think PTFO needs to win a Pulitzer for general reporting.

Petition to change the name from "International Men's Day" (bad connotations + vibes, sounds like a men's rights activist thing) to "International Dudes Rock Day" (cool, fun, wholesome)

Not satisfied with just destroying their own brand goodwill, OS companies are now using AI to try to destroy the good names of the apps users install. (Scrivener taking out adds to explain how it has no AI but Apple adds some anyway.)

It would be very funny, to me, if Michigan left the Big Ten to go independent but then realized it still needed a hockey conference and had to grovel back to the CCHA.

Think this guy knows Justin Eichorn?

It’s very cool to see the long list of reasons that make the Twin Cities the #2 area for women’s sports. I would quibble that the 16th largest metro area in the country is a “small market.” www.nytimes.com/athletic/680...

Chaska Curling is officially on the map

My analysis after watching approximately a quarter of today’s game at the Mexican restaurant is that not only is being a professional quarterback hard, it is next to impossible to actually predict who will be a good one! (You can have that for free, you’re welcome everybody!)

Is this the first football halftime show in history that caters to me personally?! Seems like it! (In other news, whenever millennials are officially Old Now.)

Father, forgive me, for I have spent the morning ranting about MLS and the enshittification of soccer wburdine.substack.com/p/mls-change...

MAGA’s ongoing war on academic freedom, reflected in headlines from the last 24 hours.

Very cool, can't wait to watch the Loons take on Real Salt Lake in a regular season game in 10 degree weather in February.

As a cultural Catholic* I am absolutely delighted by Leo’s hammering of JD Vance *I was born into Catholicism and although I no longer believe in God I remain all in on any kind of Catholic intrigue

Trump was acting like a pedophile in private over several emails with another pedophile as a goof. The woke left will never understand comedy

So this is the "What time does the Super Bowl start?" of international politics articles

They gotta make a Bond movie where the only violence is slapping. That is what millennials demand from the franchise.

Every word of this sentence takes a new and unexpected twist, masterful stuff

If all the U.S. states that touched a Great Lake were to secede from the Union and form a new (better) country along with Ontario and, let’s just say for the hell of it, Manitoba because why not, its safe to say that “The Wreck Of The Edmund Fitzgerald“ would be the national anthem, no?

Jesus Christ, what you guys really need to do stop lecturing the voters about this and instead lecture the eight people who fucked up.

This is excellent, and great fun to read. www.newyorker.com/culture/the-...

Skill issue

lol she got his ass and he knows it

it kinda sucks, I hate it
