I miss Marchand in Boston, but he's accomplishing two things I love for the sport:

1. crimes
2. losses for Florida

Matthew Fairburn @matthewfairburn.bsky.social · 2d

Brad Marchand lost his cool against the Sabres, mauling Rasmus Dahlin and then stealing his helmet and ripping the straps off before throwing it onto the ice. In the process, he contributed to the Panthers' fourth straight loss:

Marchand ripped Dahlin’s helmet off and took it with him to the penalty box.

I need folks–those participating in protests, those bitching about protests, those opening an old white guy barber shop in my neighborhood–to understand that the cost of professional signage is really quite low.

Trump on No Kings: "It's a joke. I looked at the people. They are not representative of this country. And I looked at all the brand new signs I guess paid for by Soros and other radical left lunatics. We're checking it out. The demonstrations were very small. And the people were whacked out."

I for one do think it's possible for America to find a president better than one who, faced with claims he is dumping shit on Americans, posts a video showing himself dumping shit on Americans.

This just reminded me of the time in high school when my friend and I convinced our other friend that we had gone leafpeeping in New Hampshire together over the weekend and he got absolutely furious at us. I still don't know if it was because he felt left out or because we kept saying leafpeeping.

[guy who invented the term “leafpeeping” on his first time looking at fall foliage] okay, first of all, this needs to sound much more perverted

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services is preparing to investigate *chemtrails,* according to an internal memo @stephaniearmour.bsky.social obtained.

A department spokeswoman notably did not deny it.

For those tempted to say Young Republicans have always been this way, they really have not. When I worked on campus and did bipartisan college events after, they were very much not like this.

That’s why groups like YCT and eventually TPUSA formed — because Young Republicans weren’t radical enough.

Trump is saying the quiet part out loud: he sent a $20B taxpayer-financed bailout to help his far-right buddy Milei cling to power.

Meanwhile our government is shut down, public servants aren't getting paid & we're barreling toward a Trump-made health care crisis. Sounds like Argentina First to me.

The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, which operates three major airports, said, its "policies prevent airing of politically partisan messages."

So a quick Google shows that Harrison Design is based out of Atlanta and doesn't specialize in this, uh, style.

More interestingly, the renderings on its website look nothing like this. Eg, this sketch looks like something you'd make with architectural software. What this does look like? Chat GPT.
