They would have won if either Siri or Yanni were coaching the team instead of Sirianni

Part of why I don't like the AI-or-bust economy is the constant flopsweat of people on the news who say this HAS to work. Quit making everyone so anxious. Goddamn. If this is the next Google then why are you acting like this? I don't remember being told to buy an iPhone at gunpoint.

Unbelievable they put themselves in this situation, but I’m glad Nola is getting the start. Absolutely cannot go out there tonight with a scheduled bullpen game. Hope Stubbs is behind the plate

Can’t imagine the deservedly well-paid reps from CHOP not having the funds to go to DC on their own, but would instead pretend to want to meet with Fetterman just to endure what amounts to the world’s most painful timeshare pitch

david axelrod has the same problem as the podjons, which is that his career is based on the success of one of the most singularly charismatic politicians in american history and he greatly overestimates how much he had to do with that obama would've been obama with or without all of them

This reaction from him is very odd. It’s like they are protecting some joint insider club or something. Nothing Ossoff said warranted a response like this

Yes, Gingrich is an all-time hypocrite. But isn’t it fascinating how he and Trump’s other lackeys *aren’t* denying what Ossoff said in the whole “Natalie” paragraph — that he sleeps though meetings, is obsessed with his ballroom, and put American lives at risk on the USS Lincoln and the Qatari jet?

It is amazing the degree to which none of these guys in the administration are even the most basic, watch-the-game-and-have-a-few-beers type of guys. Nor are they artistic, well-read or interesting in any way. They are weird!

Was just talking to my cousin about what a pain in the ass anything portable that ran on batteries used to be. You want to bring your radio outside by the pool and you need 8 C batteries that will last 45 minutes. Rechargeable lithium-ion batteries are an amazing upgrade to our lives.

The guy on the right is a traitor who was so detested by the quatermaster general of the US Army that he started burying dead soldiers on his fucking lawn. These redeemer bigots in the White House are posting lost cause propaganda from official White House accounts.

Mamdani is what can happen when the left finally gets a chance to serve. There are thousands more ready to step up. They’ve always been there. And with the climate teetering, the economy/western institutions neck deep in corruption & slaughter we’re going to need every single body.

If nothing else, the presence of the Obama Center reminds us that it does not have to be this way, that we can keep pushing until the reflection we see in the pool is worthy of the ideals embodied by President Lincoln…

Scott Galloway noted recently that the reflecting pool in front of the Lincoln Memorial, with its peeling paint and rampant algae, is doing its job right now. It is reflecting back to us the ugliness of our current society and the grotesqueness of the federal government.

The center, which was designed by the same architects who designed the Barnes Museum, is modern, classy and elegant. The attendees were accomplished, talented and dignified. And like most Obama events, Michelle stole the show.

Seeing the festivities around the Obama Center’s opening reminded me of why I got involved in the first place. It’s not about a singular person, although Barack Obama is one of a kind. It is about a movement of people connected through common cause and dedicated to moving forward.

Obama’s greatest strength is his relentless ability to see the better part of who we are and to always work towards that even when it looks doubtful. What’s so important about that entire ethos is how it defies limitations.

it will serve as a cultural space to host artists, athletes, speakers and authors; an activist space to host community leaders and change makers; and a center to encourage and inspire the continuation and strengthening of democracy. It even contains a branch of the Chicago Public Library.

I am glad that the Obama Presidential Center is an institution whose mission is in the present tense and not the past. It will host President Obama’s archives, but, most importantly...

Well, that was a fucking ride.
A cropped screenshot of an article section titled "Gary Larson cartoon incident" from a Tumblr page. The text describes a controversy involving a Far Side cartoon and Jane Goodall.

Gary Larson cartoon incident

_____________

 In 1987 Gary Larson published a Far Side cartoon of two chimpanzees grooming, in which one discovers a blonde hair and says, "Conducting a little more 'research' with that Jane Goodall tramp?"[127] The Jane Goodall Institute called the cartoon an "atrocity" in a letter drafted by its lawyers to Larson and his syndicate. Goodall, who was in Africa at the time, later found the cartoon amusing.[128] 

She went on to name it her favourite depiction of herself in pop culture.[129] Larson offered profits from sales of a shirt featuring the cartoon to the Jane Goodall Institute.[130] 

Goodall wrote the preface to The Far Side Gallery 5, detailing her version of the controversy.[131] She praised Larson's creative ideas, which often compare and contrast the behaviour of humans and animals. 

In 1988 Larson visited Goodall's research facility in Tanzania.[128] While there, he was attacked by a chimpanzee named Frodo.[127][132]

If you credulously do a segment about the vote in California in which you don’t say the president is lying, you’re spreading disinformation to your listeners.
