gatorade is owned by pepsico but it's the coca cola of the sports drink market. powerade in turn is owned by coca cola, but it's unquestionably the pepsi of sports drinks. this should be plainly obvious to all

We suffer for our hubris daily, but the rest of the world is sleeping on huge drinks with ice. The world needs to know this is the way.
One of the greatest American joys is picking up your huge drink with the dread that it's empty only to experience the relief that it's still quite full.

production of The Muppet Show should not be dependent on petty vulgarities like “ratings” or “revenue.” it should be preserved as a vital function of american culture. it should have a taxpayer-funded budget rivaling the CIA

Clapping my flippers together and honking like a harbor seal when a Super Bowl ad for a condiment or gambling app featuring two celebrities unexpectedly reveals a third celebrity as its punchline. Bouncing a ball around on my snout. My wife has to throw me a herring to get me to calm down.

Corporations will not exploit working people in NYC.
Uber Eats, Fantuan & HungryPanda broke the law — shortchanging workers while raking in profits.
Today, we secured $5M+ in restitution for 49,000 delivery workers.
Let this be a warning: steal wages, face the consequences.

Coordinated a beer drop by a white friend to deliver a 30-rack of Hamm’s to a Hispanic friend’s doorstep because his wife wouldn’t let him leave the house to go buy more beer for fear he’d be brutalized by lawless armed masked federal paramilitaries. This is Minnesota community. We take care of us.
