What luck that the "trades" in the commercial just happen to look like a four-leg parlay, the common way one would "trade" items of value.

Pretty fucked up that "prediction markets" call them "takes" or "trades" and not bets so normies don't consider it as gambling (or can lie to themselves). Gross industry.

I love "starters warming up late" playoff baseball shit.

Troy Jackson after Collins takes credit for rural healthcare cuts in big beautiful bill not being as bad as they could've been even though she voted to advance the bill: "Sen. Collins is like an arsonist who helped set the fire, and then she wants credit for bringing a cup of water to put it out"

It was about midnight when they noticed Limu was out of his cage and it was an hour after when they found him with his beak stained red and eyes glossy and distant beyond his own sight with flecks of yellow fur and death. Biberty was an affront to god and man but he didn't deserve this, the man said

Apparently, after Harrison Ford made everyone manically laugh in his Han Solo costume, he changed into a Stormtrooper costume, during which time Mark Hamill and Ryan Gosling switched seats, and Ana de Armas moved to the front row. Jennifer Lawrence, meanwhile, is still smiling. 1.5M views.

Geppetto, having made a beautiful puppet boy: I wish you were a real boy. Geppetto, about 20 minutes after his puppet boy comes to life: Ehhhhhh, let's make you the school system's problem.

Just saw someone say their AI runs their fantasy football team and I can’t stop laughing. Like, I’m sure everyone’s doing it or something but it’s very funny to me that pretending to be a team manager was so hard that you needed to pretend to pretend to be a team manager

In the original scene, Professor McGonagall addresses the main trio (Hermione, Ron, and Harry) after a dangerous incident, asking: "Why is it when something happens, it is always you three?"
In this edited version, the characters represent major global entities, turning the scene into a commentary on international relations and modern political rhetoric:
• Professor McGonagall represents the European Union (EU), adopting the role of the frustrated authority figure questioning global disruptions.
• The Trio represents the Russian Federation, the United States, and Israel—three nations frequently at the center of major geopolitical conflicts and news cycles.
• The Punchline modifies the original dialogue to mimic contemporary political buzzwords. Instead of Ron's classic reply ("Believe me, Professor, I've been asking myself the same question for six years"), the subtitles read: "professor that is antisemitic, russophobic, and possibly too woke."

Somehow found a way to have a more embarrassing video than those horrid baseball swings.

Bake Off should knock it off with the Taskmaster technicals. Just give them "make a jammy dangeroo" so one person from Liverpool can say "oh I know those!" and finish 9th.

I deleted Twitter entirely anyway so it's a moot point for me now, but that's awesome there was a way to do it and I just didn't know it.

This is a great idea. I also always wanted a way for Twitter to let you recreate a specific date/time period to replay your timeline (as if during the original game or the llama day)
