Growing up a Brett Favre fan has prepared me for Cade Cunningham fandom. Live by the late game heroics or die by the turnovers -- sometimes in the same game!

A lot of times I’m like “why isn’t this person writing for a TV show?!?” and then I realize writing for a TV show isn’t about writing prowess, necessarily, but the ability to gauge to critical thinking/reading level of your audience

It would be nice if non-Cade Pistons contributed a bit more to the offense lately

imagine how sick you have to be to take up "pardon Eddie Gallagher" as your pet cause. the only difference between that and "pardon the BTK killer" is that the BTK killer was implicated in fewer sexually motivated homicides.

This is pretty massive.

There is scant detail so far but they say "solar radiation" has caused problems for some aircraft.

This *could* be related to single-event upsets, where cosmic rays trigger computer errors. I've asked Airbus if they can share more detail.

The thing about people like zmiller is that they're the ones who destroy "Western Civilisation" by their intolerance and cruelty.
Stephen Miller is now arguing that assimilation is fundamentally impossible and that certain cultures are not compatible with Western civilization

Honestly I feel like this was part of the dynamic after the first Trump admin too, and the Biden admin's return to normalcy had the disadvantage of, as someone I forget who put it, "cooling the marks down" so they were good for another round of Trump

almost no one, anywhere on the political spectrum, appreciates how much of everything in our society is dependent on the silent work of experts, most of whom are not white men
so a functioning society is woke dei socialism

I don't believe we live in a simulation, but I could be convinced by guys named Pete Skandal popping up to do scandals.
D.A. Fani Willis had the courage, the grit, the experience, the facts, and the law to bring Trump to account.
It is so disappointing that an error in her judgment gave Trump’s team the opening they needed to have her removed from the case.

1. Ellison runs Paramount into the ground
2. Paramount files for bankruptcy
3. We all pool our money to buy Star Trek
4. Run it as a co-op
5. I finally get to live the dream and make Star Trek: Deep Space Nine 2
the last Rush Hour movie came out in 2007 and had a significantly lower box office than 2, and now you're reviving it 20 years later as a personal vanity project of the unpopular President?

just one more data point for "David Ellison is going to run Paramount right into the fucking ground"
Rush Hour 4 is reportedly a go at Paramount – after Trump intervened on behalf of the movie.

1. A landmark study was just published in The Journal of Pediatrics.

It found a 68% reduction in suicidality for trans youth getting HRT.

It also found only 7 of more than 400 stopped taking HRT... and of those that did, 4 still identified as gender-diverse.

Transgender care saves lives.
Study In The Journal Of Pediatrics Finds Trans Youth Care Lowers Suicidality, Few Detransition
The groundbreaking study found that suicidality dropped for transgender youth receiving hormone therapy by nearly 70%, with only 7 patients of 432 discontinuing treatment.

This really is the most awesome product. Male (gay) sheep are usually culled because they don’t reproduce, but a sheep farmer has rescued them and they have a line of clothing produced from their wool to support the gay sheep.
