I was radicalized by the Verizon-Jurassic Park/AI death mask commercial

Before everyone rushes to judgment, let me just say: I'm sure at least a few NFL owners aren't in the Epstein Files. Maybe as many as 3-4

Quite the blow to meritocracy myths when half the billionaires in the country are in the Epstein files emailing shit like “hey best friend, what should I wear to the crimes party?”

Fully vindicated in his belief that Americans were filthy treatlers who'd accept mass unemployment and a slow recovery over borger getting one dollar more expensive

This must be the steering of the Titanic that JD was talking about

Nothing with the gameplan makes much sense to me so far. They were way too soft on defense early on. Meanwhile the only thing they seem to be doing on defense is trying to mask how bad the line has been.

This has the tone of an NFL Owner writing a letter to season ticket holders to express his disappointment with the way a season went. Not exactly meeting the moment.

100% Andrew.

Oh yeah, it is(was?) the hot new romance genre.

I'm pretty sure it's usually through the lens of like, 'Beauty and the Beast' 'chick fiction' though, so if Heated Rivalry is a queer take I think that's great! Perhaps I'll get to it in the 2030s.

It's one of those things that has popped up in my social media periphery, and I'm like "huh? what? go away idk what that is"

Like I literally had no idea it was part of the hockey enemy-to-romance genre until a second ago looking it up haha

It's obvious Trump is a lifeless lump that they juice up for big events and that Miller is running the show.

Trump's only power is to know when optics are bad. Not when things are morally bad, but the optics.

Doubling down on "kill the libs" is from someone who actually believes in something.

To be fair, this is more than just a "I suspect it's not my sorta thing" thing

I also am just very bad at keeping current!

Like I -might- get to The Wire this year.

I'm going to easily coast through this decade without ever knowing what the fuck 'Heated Rivalry' is

Unfortunately nonsensical, single issue consumer obsessions like this is are a big reason why were in this mess

Qanon ex (sorta) saying that she’s outraged about Minneapolis on Instagram because she voted Trump for RFK and to bring back beef tallow, not this.

You know, when these types said 'give me liberty or give me death', it woulda been smart to ask which they actually wanted

something else that’s really clear is the extent to which Trump himself is checked out and declining and Miller is running the show

Trump used to have some lizard brain sense of optics - not an understanding that things are bad but an understanding that they looked bad

that’s completely gone now

It’s a welcome break in these times Andrew, and I appreciate what you and others covering this stupid but beautiful sport do

you cannot retrain ICE. they are doing what they are hired for: acting as an occupying army to punish those who will not submit to Trump.

You make an example out or one of two of these goons and Schumer would put out an approving message ("A promising start!") and a lot of Middle America would be duped into acquiescence.

But these are not smart people. They'd rather double down on 'kill libs'.

b. kristol considered to the left of democratic congressional leadership

I have spent my entire adult life being lectured by Republican politicians and conservative legal movement types about how important it is to preserve the sacred constitutional right to self-defense of *specifically this person* and then secret police murdered him in the street

It just now strikes me that the United States, unlike every other democracy in the world, has never ever ever had an early presidential election. This seems like a problem? Like you need to have an institutionalized path for designating an entire administration illegitimate and voting for a new one?

Stop calling people trying to protect their neighbors and their communities "protesters."

This is what you do when you’re running death camps

This is as useless as Schumer's messaging, yeah

That money could’ve ended homelessness in the US, or established UBI for every American, student loan erasure, or supercharged every creative industry in existence to pay artists better,

instead of, yknow, blowing it on dead malls full of Elegy of Emptiness statues for rich people

I hate it here

That’s the risk part of loving art. Good on him

Many thanks 🙏
