They’re burying the weirdest part of this story, which is that this congressman’s twin brother keeps trying and failing to replace him in various jobs and is now hoping to replace him in this one
Soon after Nehls' announcement, his twin brother Trever announced his bid for the House seat, stating he would "follow in Troy's footsteps and stand shoulder-to- shoulder with President Trump." Trever Nehls, attempted to replace his brother as Fort Bend County sheriff in 2020 and lost in the election. He ran for Fort Bend County judge in 2022 but was also defeated.

I remember the first car I owned (Chevy Impala '77 which I bought for 325USD from my father-in-law and kept forever) and the nicest (new Honda Accord manual in around 1994) but I forget the other two or three. (Maybe a Pontiac Vibe?)
No car since 2013 when I moved to Copenhagen. It cured me.

A dream.
I dream that one day drivers will have the same patience for me crossing the street that they do waiting for a parking spot 10 feet closer to the mall entrance.

“The editor interviewed him in the 1960s for the job of political correspondent.

‘Are you interested in politics, Mr Stoppard?’

‘Indeed I am.’

‘So then can you tell me the name of the prime minister?’

‘I said I was interested, not that I was obsessed!’”

Under the Trump Regime, Theology is a professional degree but public health and nursing aren’t.

Montreal food people: Can we please stop opening Asian fusion restaurants that have an “East meets West” concept and offer an “elevated” dining experience?

It is unoriginal & boring at this point. And Asian dining does not need to be “elevated”, it is exceptional enough as it is.

Former US military lawyers speak out:

"The Former JAGs Working Group unanimously considers both the giving and the execution of these orders, if true, to constitute war crimes, murder, or both."

Statement on Media Reports of Pentagon “No Quarter” Orders in Caribbean Boat Strikes

1/2
• If the U.S. military operation to interdict and destroy suspected narcotraFicking vessels is a “non-international armed conflict,” as the Trump Administration suggests, orders to “kill everybody,” which can reasonably be regarded as an order to give “no quarter,” and to “double-tap” a target in order to kill survivors, are clearly illegal under international law. In short, they are war crimes. • If the U.S. military operation is not an armed conflict of any kind, these orders to kill helpless civilians clinging to the wreckage of a vessel our military destroyed would subject everyone from SECDEF down to the individual who pulled the trigger to prosecution under U.S. law for murder. Highlighted sentence at the end of the document reads: Again, the bottom line is that, since orders to kill survivors of an attack at sea are “patently illegal,” anyone who issues or follows such orders can and should be prosecuted for war crimes, murder, or both.

Sarah Kendzior @sarahkendzior.bsky.social said it best in 2020
“The Trump administration is a transnational crime syndicate masquerading as a government. The foundation of this edifice was formed not when Trump took office, but decades before, through prolonged engagement with criminal or criminal-adjacent actors linked to hostile regimes, in particular, the Kremlin and its oligarch network.” Sarah Kendzior, Hiding in Plain Sight: The Invention of Donald Trump and the Erosion of America

Bong Joon Ho hit me up for the squad you legend deadline.com/2025/11/bong...
Bong Joon Ho took a characteristically radical approach when questioned on his thoughts around the rise of Al technology at the jury press conference of the Marrakech Film Festival on Saturday. The Korean director, who is president of the jury, gave two responses, one measured, the other deeply personal. "My official answer is, Al is good because it's the very beginning of the human race finally seriously thinking about what only humans can do. But my personal answer is, I'm going to organize a military squad, and their mission is to destroy AI," he said.

It was the official position of the English aristocracy in the 19th century that Indian lesbians have "big dick energy" and English women's dicks are tiny.
This ‘Easternisation’ of lesbianism seems to have gained strength in the nineteenth century. In Woods-Pirie trial of 1810, Lord Meadowbank insisted over and over again that no woman ‘in this country’ would have a big enough clitoris to commit the kind of penetrative tribadism so common in India (Faderman, Scotch Verdict, p. 65)

An issue we're seeing at all levels of university is that many students are simply refusing to do *anything*. They aren't reading the syllabus, aren't following assignment guidelines, aren't engaging with material, ignoring deadlines. And this might seem like old news, but it truly has ramped up.

Universities are assembling larger and larger teams to deal with academic integrity issues--mostly focused on AI--while simultaneously holding AI "writing" contests, AI-themed events, "hey, come play with these fun tools!" The messages are so mixed, it's criminal. Because AI is bloated with money.
