There’s no way to do that. If Musk takes Starlink down, Ukraine is in big trouble. Their entire communication structure is built around it.

Anyone who has committed fraud on the US taxpayer should be relieved of those funds. This isn’t a partisan issue. Everyone should be singing the same tune on this one. Corrupt politicians rely on both sides fighting each other so they can turn a blind eye and say the other side is worse.

I’ll take a Rahm article over most of the milquetoast middle. Too many Democrats are afraid to make someone mad. I don’t agree with Rahm on many things but give me him, AOC, or Warren who don’t mince words. Too many Dems sound like they are waiting for us to tell them what to think.

American isnt shrugging. As had happened in countries that have slipped into autocracy, when you have a party in power that doesn’t respect the law, there’s little you can do until you vote the bastards out. The true test is in November. I have faith the message is going to be loud and clear.

Anyone who has been in middle management has experienced this many times. The board puts a bunch of idiots in leadership and they arrive with preconceived notions they learned in a book without learning the business. 3 years later you’re cleaning up their mess while another group of idiots is hired.

ESPN is going after the 20 something dude-bros and that makes sense for their week day shows. But the secret of Gameday was Herbie and Coach were a hit with the Moms too. They’re losing that audience while also losing people who want actual analysis and not fluff.

Modell owed the city another year on his lease and took him to court to make him pay it. It would have bankrupted him so the NFL stepped in and gave Cleveland the colors and promised a new franchise if the city dropped their lawsuit.

Results like that are why every top team is going to schedule cupcakes for all their out of conference games. Why risk missing the playoffs if you schedule a challenging team? It’s why there will eventually be a push for computer polls who reward strength of schedule and punish the cupcake eaters.

I don’t know how anyone can look at these two and still think the court has any credibility. They work like defense attorneys who come up with a premise to fit their narrative rather than following the law. They’ve done unfathomable damage to the bench and to this country.

Yep. I say it every time. Keep piling on the points when you’re ahead by a TD. 3 or 6 is good.

I’ve always advocated to limits based on average employee salary but the lowest salary is interesting too.

I’d say most the the liv players won’t return but there are a few big names the pga would add once the player agrees to some hefty fines like they did with Koepke.

‘Iran wants to meet so badly’. You’ve been saying that for months. So why haven’t you met? Or is it possible you’re lying?

I was excited for tech to bring the world together. The early web wasn’t perfect but there was a shared joy. It may sound odd but I lost hope playing World of Warcraft. It was an incredibly fun game but eventually the constant flow of bigots and trolls wore me down. It was a microcosm of the future.

Putting Jackson, Jefferson, and Wilson as Great presidents is certainly a choice. So is putting Teddy Roosevelt as Nearly Great. It’s been over a century and they’re still upset he broke up the trusts. I guess Wilson’s racism overrides the fact his government laid the groundwork for big government.

We need a ‘fatcat tax’. Every company needs to calculate the average wage of their employees and multiply it by 50. For every dollar paid to any employee over that amount the tax would be 100%. So if you want to give a boss a huge bonus, you give America one too. That’s patriotism baby.

I’m can’t get sad about the passing of Dolly Parton because I smile every time I think of her. I’m not sad she died. I’m happy she lived.

The Watson decision was made when Monken was hired. Haslam wants to prove Watson’s signing wasn’t a mistake. Billionaires’ egos hate it when people say they’re wrong. Jimmy is hoping to prove he was right and doesn’t care he’s dragging the fandom through the mud and making himself look even dumber.

Not even close to this group. That’s not worse than the Browns of 2017 with Kizer, Hogan, and Kessler.

The Hatch Act needs to include bigger penalties for higher level positions and jail time for repeated violations.

I used to what Maher’s show but he never figured out we watched the show in spite of his constant interruptions not because of them. His show had good cross party debate but now it’s mostly Bill platforming antivaxxers or complaining about youths. He’s a bitter old man yelling at clouds.

I like Federov but this is giving strongman ‘only I can save us’ vibes. Zelenskyy isnt perfect but it’s best to stay focused until Russia is defeated. You know Putin loves this news.

I watched the movie Contagion (2011) last night. I’d meant to see it but after 2020 I needed space. It’s scary how much they predicted. They even had their own ivermectin. The biggest difference was people fighting for the jab instead fighting against it. Not even Hollywood saw that coming.

In my opinion, the first two episodes are the best film representation of the American Revolution from Boston Massacre to the Declaration of Independence. The cast was pitch perfect. I especially loved David Morse as Washington.

The truth is the magnetic system is easier on airframes which means longer life and also can get planes into the air twice as fast as steam catapults (which need the steam pressure to build up).

Kevin Long @kevlong.bsky.social · 14/08/2026

Eight years ago Trump spoke to a maintenance guy on a single carrier who has worked on steam catapults for years and cannot fathom that guy could wrong. Trump is stuck in the 1980s and if it was good enough for Tom Cruise in Top Gun then it’s good enough for the navy 40 years later.

It’s all part of the Republican plan to force drastic cuts to their most hated programs - Medicare and Social Security. I wonder if they realize the political forces they’re going to unleash if this happens. The billionaires buying islands and turning them into fortresses know.

It’s amazing what a better set of microphones can do to a voice you normally hear in a street market and usually recoded with an iPhone. She’s a star.

I’ve been aware of #NeneRoyal for a while but never realized the extent of her talents until she rocked the stage on AGT. I’m not a fan of the show and can’t stand Simon Cowell but she’s worth it. It’s amazing to see a 16 year old control a large crowd so effortlessly.

I was thinking the same about Daredevil. It would have been great to see them together. I’ve always struggled with The Punisher but Bernthal has done a nice job with the character. Using him as comic relief was too much of a stretch.

We were not enjoying it together. There’s something special about event TV and knowing you can discuss it with others the next day at work/school.

These are estimates but - The US has the ability to produce about 600 patriots and 100 Thaads per year. We’ve used about 1200 patriots and 250 thaads since the Iran war started. The pentagon has is working with Lockheed to double production but it’ll take 4-5 years to accomplish.

Other reasons is doing a lot of work in that sentence.

My feeling is not one single dollar should be spent investigating these supposed crimes. If someone bets on an arbitrary act that one person completely controls, that bettor deserves to lose their money. Once people realize every bet could be fixed, perhaps they’ll stop betting on stupid stuff.

Kevin Long @kevlong.bsky.social · 28/07/2026

Why do these sports networks think adding vile human beings to their broadcast makes people more likely to watch? Does anyone really like this constant flow of ‘gotcha takes’. I’d like to see real analysis but that left these shows a long time ago.

All these massive streaming companies are slowly gaining expertise. Meanwhile ESPN, Fox and Paramount are getting proportionally smaller and smaller. It wouldn’t surprise me if in 10 years these streamers will be broadcasting all the games.

The next president better confiscate it for their use and sell it once the real air force one is complete. We cannot allow this type of graft without pushback.

Uh okay. Does that mean the next president can use their favorite bulldozer company when they raze their that monstrosity to the ground. My vote in 2028 will go to someone who promises to do this.

Europeans were taught farming, algebra, astronomy, domesticated horses, the wheel, gunpowder, and medicine by outsiders. Numbers and letters came from the east. Miller pretends his ancestors pulled themselves up by their bootstraps but what would have happened if they were never given the boots.

Passing this in the house is going to be more difficult than many expect. Most Senators aren’t up for re-election in November but that’s not true in the house. In addition they are past the primaries and facing a general election. Anyone in a close district is going to think about a massive spend.

She’s doing exactly what the Ellisons wanted and they will move on from her when her usefulness is at an end. My guess is they don’t care about the damage and are happy with changes so far.

I have a pile of Browns gear in my closet and it’s been sitting there since the day the sex pest was signed. I hated Modell but he never made me ashamed to wear the colors. June 1st 2027 can’t get here soon enough. And screw Haslam forever if he re-signs the pest. That will be my last straw.

Great writeup. Many are celebrating Ben’s actions but I cringed at some of acts. I know content is king but he’s not as smart as he thinks and is in bigger trouble than most realize. While I applaud his goals, his methods were dumb to the point he’s going to need the go-fund-me for his legal fees.
