My friend Dave has restored a sweet '68 912 coupe in Irish green, so if you're a car nerd with some American green to throw, check it! And don't miss the video in the BaT listing bringatrailer.com/listing/1968...
Vive la France!
Tom Homan asks “where is that line,” as if it is mysterious or unknowable. It’s not. Tom’s saying it that way because he’s too much of a coward just to say “she should be arrested for telling people their rights.” Also, to be fair, he may be too dim to understand the line.
This feels like a subplot in a '90s mob movie. "You work for US now, mayor."

Love to be added! Thanks!
Bluesky really nailing the reaction gif thing. Comedy gold!
Democrats have the majority for less than two more months. I'll be using every second to push for passage of my PRESS Act to protect journalists from government spying and surveillance.
I mean you clearly have no clue how newspaper press runs work, but they don’t print the whole Sunday paper at once. Different sections require different press configurations for color/ad placement. So advance Sunday sections are run earlier in the week when the press isn’t busy doing the daily run
You think there were more CD stores in 2001 than there are places to buy the Sunday NYT? You heard of Starbucks and 7-11s and the whole rest of the country where today’s National Edition was on various presses before the shooting even happened?
