Portland Trail Blazers coach Chauncey Billups charged in illegal poker operation tied to Mafia: Sources Portland Trail Blazers head coach Chauncey Billups has been charged in an illegal poker operation tied to the mafia, law enforcement sources told ABC News.

None of our season preview writing included the phrase "illegal poker operation tied to the Mafia." We regret the error. abcnews.go.com/US/miami-hea...

White people have a kind of intra-white respectability politics about the level of racism that's considered permissible in polite company and I think a lot of polite racists are mad the gutter racists are tarnishing their good name.

I don't care for any kinda racist but I love myself, so. πŸ€·πŸ½β€β™€οΈ

How Messy, Peppercorn-Packed Chinese Irish Spice Bags Took Over the World The freewheeling meal of spicy fried chicken and fries has spread abroad as Irish culture and food have become popular online.

The only good thing that can be said about #MonacoGP #F1 is that it’s radicalized George Russell

Val Kilmer tweeting I once tickled Lou Reed. I regretted it for the longest while as he spoke to me few times after that dinner. But I'm glad now. He needed it.

I am seeing more and more opinions bubbling up about how throwing trans people to the wolves would be a winning strategy for Democrats, and I just want to quickly say: Fuck off with that absolute dog shit.

I think this is right. Also, if anyone is looking for someone to blame, it should be focused on the people who looked exactly at what Trump was selling and said "yes."

Can anyone help with how to use a blocklist? Meaning, is there a bulk function or do you need to block each account manually?
