got done on the phone and boom, politicians have opened the floor gates to working the fuel prices ahead of midterm election with gasoline/diesel prices remaining very elevated... lots to digest, I don't love stimulating demand by lowering overall price with global supply tight

put it this way, BY FAR the most popular computer vs computer activity is in sports game simulations and the most popular one which is a Madden franchise mode channel has like 200k views. Meanwhile like 4 million people will block off their Sunday to watch the 2-11 Jets play the 1-10 Browns irl

For the last three weeks, the iPad in my kitchen has been playing nothing but the Katami National Park live bear feed. 1) It is awesome, and 2) Backpack is the clear and indisputable winner, came off the bench ready and never let up.

Still from the television show What We Do in the Shadows showing Laszlo speaking. Text reads "he's my best friend, he's my pal. He's my homeboy, my rotten soldier. He's my sweet cheese, my good-time boy."

WSJ Exclusive: The Trump admin used federal funds from the Department of Homeland Security to finance those controversial pro-Trump ads that started airing on TV. The taxpayer money used to fund the ads came from U.S. Customs and Border Protection.

I think we lucked out a bit here in that a lot of what Trump does falls into the bucket of “so jaw-droppingly vulgar or corrupt that it’s not technically illegal because it was inconceivable that someone would attempt it.” Like why restaurants rarely post “no defecating on the tables” signs.

Here’s the most incredible story you’ll read today. A small plane with four people aboard crashes in a field. Another pilot witnesses it. That pilot happens to be flying a bunch of skydivers. They offer to jump to assist, are given permission. The skydivers happen to be EMTs. Everyone survives.
