Screwed from the beginning when we couldn't throw a blank in the first.

OK, let's go get that bronze tomorrow!

Howald?

Howald has just been amazing for the Swiss. #WinterOlympics #Curling

Kenya believe it?

Maybe not choking, but Swiss have been much more precise. Better at freezing, better at getting the rolls they need.

Choking, or Swiss that good? Seems to me just a bunch of missed shots

So far, Americans 100% choking away this semifinal curling match.

Nope.

Reminder: Under its deal with Obama, Iran gave up its nuclear weapons program. When Trump was sworn in, he ripped up the agreement in a tantrum.

Now, Trump is threatening war with Iran unless it...gives up its nuclear weapons program.

But the price of eggs.

Team USA celebrating with a bunch of sticks and helmets and gloves flying everywhere. Soaring above them all is one goalie stick, higher than the boards surrounding the rink, so far away from the goalie that it doesn't even look like she threw it. (Also sad Canadians in the background.)

dude look at how far Aerin Frankel yeeted her goalie stick after the golden goal. solid 20 feet of elevation here

100% had a dream about US curler Taylor Anderson-Heide last night #WinterOlympics

Complete luck that I got this

This really is a great picture:

I have some questions about proof of use in commerce...

I guess people have forgotten that Trump started the pandemic by refusing to test and bringing in tens of thousands of people in crowded airports. and then stole PPE from blue states. and then suggested bleach or UV light might cure it. and then tried to kill Biden with it. and then

Trump plans to send $10 billion in funds that Congress hasn’t appropriated from the US Treasury to an organization that he will continue to chair personally even after he is out of office.

This is looting.

Ok, so NBC showed the Alysa Liu “that’s what I’m fixing talking about” and just dropped the sound on the f-bomb. I thought they just wouldn’t show it at all

Okay then

a Free Press headline, Why Is No One Having Sex? https://www.thefp.com/p/why-is-no-one-having-sex

The Free Press is discovering new levels of Telling On Yourself that scientists previously thought could not exist

Olympic athletes, some of whom are teenagers, are held to a higher level of expected maturity than the most powerful man in the world.

I know American men haven't been successful at the Olympics. But I really believe that if we televise men's sports and get them some financial support, there's real upside there. Think about it: Nearly half of all Americans are men, surely some of them might be good at sports

5 women, one women's team, and one mixed team have won Olympic gold medals for Team USA at these Olympics. Meanwhile, just one individual male athlete and no men's teams have won gold medals for Team USA

Makes you wonder: when will America start investing in men's sports

And the women’s team:
- the daughter of Chinese immigrants who rebuffed an aggressive campaign to get her to skate for China
- the daughter of an Italian immigrant embryologist mom who named her after a Michelle Pfeiffer character
- the pansexual daughter of a Texas cop (who is her biggest fan)

On the plus side, it will make it far easier for Comey, Schiff, and every one to make the case that they are facing political prosecutions, since Trump is advertising.

Wait, can I not watch the medal ceremony on peacock?

Hell yeah, Alysa Liu!

And Amber Glenn! From 11th to 5th!!

A skater coming off the ice and saying “THAT’S WHAT I’M FUCKIN’ TALKIN’ ABOUT!” makes me so happy, given how punishing the ladylike discourse of my youth was when it came to this sport.

I have watched figure skating before, I have appreciated and enjoyed figure skating before, but I don't think I've ever loved watching someone figure skate before Alysa Liu these past two years, what an awesome athlete
