There are a great many circumstances in which you can be a catty bitch for fun and profit, but in an interview with an FBI agent ain't one of them.

Judge Currie rejects AG Bondi's attempt to bless the indictments after the fact:

"It would mean the Govt could send any private citizen off the street — attorney or not — into the grand jury room to secure an indictment so long as the AG gives her approval after the fact. That cannot be the law."

another banger of a decision here, btw, for those of us who enjoy such things 🤘
NEW: Judge Currie finds that Lindsay Halligan was UNLAWFULLY APPOINTED and dismisses the James Comey and Letitia James indictments without prejudice. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

was nobody else ever taught the rubric for presenting an answer where you

* give your conclusion up front
* explain the steps by which you reached that conclusion
* restate your conclusion at the end?

I'm increasingly encountering people who seem perplexed by this and it makes me want to scream. 😅

like sumosoul says, Hōshōryū has not figured out Aonishiki thus far. if Ao wins this match, he wins the tournament overall and makes an extremely strong case for promotion to ōzeki.
Day15 Playoff!
Yz Hōshōryū (L)
Sw Aonoshiki (R)
For all the marbles! Ao already soundly beat Hoss ystrdy, Hoss so far has just not been able to find a way to beat Ao in their few meetings. To top it off Hoss lost a playoff to Ōnosato last basho - all things that must really have stuck in his craw.
November 23, 2025 at 9:01 AM
すごい。amazing.
Day15
Oz Kotozakura 8-6 (L)
Sw Aonishiki 11-3 (R)
Zakura looks to make it count! Due to Ōnosato dropping out, this is final regular bout of the basho. If Aonishiki keeps his poise and wins we get a playoff with Hoss; if Ao loses Hoss takes the yūshō with no contest on last day.. #kyushubasho2025

if Aonishiki wins here, he can punch his ticket for ōzeki, the second-highest rank in sumo (second only to yokozuna). if he were to be promoted, it would make him the first ever Ukrainian ōzeki and (aiui) be the fastest rise to that rank in the history of pro sumo.
Day14
Sw Aonishiki 10-3 (L)
Yz Hōshōryū 11-2 (R)
Here we go! Hoss has yet to beat the new usurper Ao. If he can do it he takes sole lead going into the last day, if Ao takes the day we are right back to a three man tie tomorrow. Where’s my popcorn? #kyushubasho2025

no word of a lie: if you convincingly come across as "cleaning lady", it's the next best thing to being physically invisible.
Women and older career switchers are generally not even exposed to red team as an option of interest that they’d be good at using socialized skills, which is kinda crazy when the most ignored people in society who can pretty much walk in anywhere are older women. Instead we portray it like esports.

there's a whole little industry of forex & money transfer firms whose sole purpose is to make these problems go away. their continued success underlines just how correct Jess is here
Trying to send a bank transfer to an American account and spiraling as I wonder why America was allowed to have such an outsized impact on global affairs.

This doesn't need to be this hard. This is not a system built by a serious country.

the pre-match facial expressions here are wild. you can feel the pressure on both of these guys 😅
Day13
Yz Ōnosato 10-2 (L)
Sw Aonishiki 10-2 (R)
One man goes behind in the yūshō race! Despite Ao’s near perfect approach Ōnosato has beat him in both their two only meetings last two basho. A win here would have the bigwigs ticking boxes for an ōzeki promotion. Watch close cuz there is no mono’ii
