just saying

It’s the same excuse Russia used to attack Ukraine.

Yes, I switched to over the air. Usually they are pretty good for me, but not today apparently.

Always a good day when Teng is in the zone.

My favorite part about this though is that trump wants people to stop talking about Epstein, but pulling the Clinton’s in just made all the news stations talk about it more. 😝

They can’t even make money with what they have now. I wonder what the over/under is before the new company goes bankrupt.

Can’t believe it - local news on local fox channel fact checked trump on his economic claims. It’s a separate/extra news show (more in-depth, no weather etc), but still surprised.

Did he not realize that an arrest and 2 misdemeanor charges made him a “criminal” in the maga mind?

My favorite comment that I read concerning the ‘speech’ last night was “could have been an email”
Haha

ngl - as a single woman who often travels alone, Mexico is the only country I’ve never felt safe in (not for work and not even for fun w friends where I felt watched every time I was more than 10ft away from them). There are others, no doubt; I just haven’t been to those.

When asked today if he will call for Gonzales to resign, Very Pious Christian Mike Johnson said no. Hanging on to power is the first chapter in MAGA Mike’s Bible.

Yeah, I don’t see him able to win the ‘flyover’ states imo.

"ICE agents are the equivalent of cartel hitmen" is a wild take, but Mike Lee is here for it.

Finally shooting the open shots.

And King Louie is the king of the jungle because the jungle book says so. I don’t make the rules. /s

Except the blue shirts are also white on the top, so if you aren’t watching closely it is easy to confuse which team is which.

I like hockey, but 1) I don’t care to watch Olympic contests that are sports I can watch all the time and 2) these jerseys are waaayyy too similar to each other.

First storm of the new year. Seems like forever since I last heard thunder.

Constant Sexual Aggression Drives Female Tortoises To Walk Off Cliffs

Then, after many years of study, Dr. Arsovski realized that the females were undersized and dying young. He also realized those once- comical copulatory trains were made up of many males pursuing just one female. When the female tired, the train would become a frenzied heap of reptiles. "She's literally buried by males," Dr. Arsovski said. He and his co-authors wrote that as part of the tortoises' courtship, they "bump, bite (sometimes to the point of blood loss), mount and finally vigorously poke fleeing females" with a sharp tail tip. Three-quarters of the island's females had genital injuries.

Nonstop male attention seemed to be driving females to early deaths. The scientists wondered whether the stress also keeps females from reproducing; they can store sperm for several years rather than fertilizing their eggs. The researchers began transporting female tortoises to a veterinarian's office for X-rays. The scans revealed that most island females' bellies were empty. Only 15 percent of females from the plateau carried any eggs. But among tortoises from a nearby mainland population, every female was pregnant, her belly packed with up to 11 eggs. One more hint about the bleak lives of the Golem Grad females was that on multiple occasions, scientists saw them throw themselves off the cliffs.

The scientists predict in the new study that Golem Grad's last female tortoise will die in 2083. The high concentration of aggressive males "actually seems to be causing an extinction vortex," said Jeanine Refsnider, an evolutionary ecologist at the University of Toledo in Ohio who was not involved in the study. Dr. Refsnider had "never heard of anything like that" in a natural setting without human disturbances such as pollution or habitat loss, she said, adding, "It's really unusual and disturbing, but it's really fascinating." Something must have initially tipped this population into having too many males. The scientists say it could have been random variation. On the mainland, there are slightly more females than males.

The female Golem Grad tortoises chose flung themselves to death because of the constant sexual aggression of the males

lol - I could only see the responses because of the screenshots - I blocked them some time ago.

Huh? One post asked to name one plant opening due to trump in the next two years, you mentioned Hyundai and I mentioned that was started earlier, ergo not a trump plant. Trump being a shitty asshole was a separate matter imo. Think our points got crossed there.

This was kicked off in 2023 during Biden’s term.

The Moroun family has been holding back Detroit for years to line their own pocketbooks.

I want media to start asking, point blank, “how much did Moroun pay you?” Don’t dance around it and ask if he was “influenced” blah blah blah. Just straight up - how much were you paid?

If you had told me back in the day that “I’m too Sexy” would one day be used in an ice dancing performance at the Olympics in any year, let alone multiple times in the same year, I would have asked what you were on. And yet, here we are.

I know a mom who went camping at 8 months with friends and left the baby home with her husband (they’ve been married 30 years now and have 5 kids). I guess I don’t see the big deal as long as she is allowed a weekend trip of her own in the future.

And they got a score out of it. Total BS.

So I’m sorry we only stop play when an Illinois player is “hurt”? And not when an MSU player is actually hurt?

I don't want to speak rashly here, but I'm starting to get the feeling that the Trump administration is *not* actually concerned with holding pedophiles to account?

I was considering getting it just for the Olympics, so thanks for letting me know before I wasted the money.
