Ditka never thought he would be remembered as an SNL catch phrase just as much as he would be remembered as a coach.

Damn straight. I remember during the Obama years all of the broken old men who swore up and down the moment an organization like ICE set foot in an American city, they would all rise up together. They're pretty quiet now.

A child had to watch their father get shot by ICE. Our babies deserve to be kids. Not live in fear. Not locked in cages. And not be caught in gunfire while in the back seat of a car. This rogue ICE agency is out of control. Enough.

It edges up to the current age, but I point to 'Bad Moms' as a movie that celebrates the attitude of, "We don't have to just give up... we need to actively make things worse for others in order to make ourselves feel better. And you know what? There will be no consequences whatsoever."

right. this isn’t a somber public execution to show people what it means for the state to murder someone. this is a celebration of violence for its own sake. the fact that the nidal hasan is helpless and infirm is no doubt part of the appeal. bsky.app/profile/spir...

El-Sayed: "I was a junior in HS on 9/11, sitting in my chemistry class. I watched as people started to point to people of my faith & say exactly the kinds of things that Rogers was saying. If that's his entire campaign strategy, you have to imagine how small minded he thinks Michiganders are."

Seeing a bunch of online dunking on the popular "Mar-a-lago face" style of plastic surgery, and I am reminded of what it means. It is not healthy. It is not beautiful. It is about showing these people are rich enough to look this way and powerful enough to make you look at them.

I haven't seen "Chappie" but heard bad things about it. Who knows, though? She was a supporting player and not the main star, so even if it was bad, she was great in it.

Our kids are being hogtied, handcuffed, and tased in our schools. Keeping them safe should be the bare minimum. I am urging our Texas leaders to exercise immediate oversight and ensure accountability for these horrific reported actions. This is unacceptable, and it has to stop.
