If I ever do something stupid that gains public attention, I pray to all the gods that Ben Shapiro doesn't come to my defense.

Nick Nolte feels this in his bones.

That could be. It's quite possible your experience is no worse than that of the person watching the broadcast on CBC, we've all just forgotten how bad that experience was. I know I feel the same watching something on Roku TV or even Amazon.

The paid version of Gem is only about 8/mo, and it's pretty easy to cancel when you're done with it. It might be worth it for the duration of the games.

Grew up and went to school with a Dallas Glasscock. Needless to say, he got saddled with "CrystalPrick" as a nickname.

Hoo, boy, I wish. But it was only a couple of days ago, U.S. media were talking about Trump "softening" his position on ICE.

Bravo!
See, @evansolomon.bsky.social, this is what responsible governments do.

I waved at the baby in the seat in front of me on the plane and accidentally locked myself into a waving competition I refuse to lose.

This prayer can essentially be boiled down to this: "Dear God, please make our president less of an asshole. Amen."

Damn.

It's like being able to hear what a puppy's thinking while it shakes the heck out of its favourite stuffie.

I come late to the Nick Cave Appreciation Club, but my conclusion is that he's the Australian Leonard Cohen.

To think that ICE, an ill-conceived militia comprised of racist goons and untrained military fetishist wannabes can be reformed is like dreaming that I, with just a little more training and discipline, could morph into an Olympic-caliber figure skater.

Chuck Schumer is obviously living in the timeline that I wish I were living in. That's unfortunate, because the rest of us are stuck in this timeline.

I get that men our age (Chuck's and mine) have difficulty adapting to abrupt, wrenching change, but my oath, what a failure to rise to the occasion.

Shall I be Mother?

The Quebec number is impressive given his plume-de-ma-tante French, but perhaps it's just as much a manifestation of their abhorrence for Mr. Poilievre.

I didn't realize they walk like bears - both left feet, then both right feet. That's what gives them the lumbering, waddling gait.

Europe just started building a ‘kill switch’ for U.S. tech — and the market isn’t priced for it, says this strategist — MarketWatch Zoom and Microsoft are among those companies that could lose business, says Matthew Tuttle

“The main event is this: the world is building optionality away from U.S. policy and platform dependence. And once you see it, you can’t unsee it — because it’s showing up in procurement decisions, supply chains, defense budgets, and capital flows”

Kudos for being able to enunciate that clearly while gargling a pair of shriveled balls. Missed out on a career in ventriloquism.

Do you have this one available on a t-shirt? 'Cause I'd buy that shirt.

Impressive sense of scale when it comes to planet size.

He's gonna rip down the f'in Kennedy Center now. Just watch.

Imagine wading through hundreds of juicy stories doing this, because your eyes are focused on a big pile of MEH off in the distance.

What with all the drinking, and the AIDS and the spousal homicide, ...

Who's the organ grinder who puts this stuff on his desk and says, "Dance, Monkey!"?

'Cause he sure as hell doesn't come up with this on his own.

The failure of Democrats to rise to this historic moment is an indictment of the entire American political ecosystem, a demonstration of just how broken it has been for decades.
