I know, I know, it's the modern NBA, things can turn around at any time and no lead is built to last

but it's always such a delight to watch the Celtics kick the shit out of the Lakers

I get Vought and Lutnick mixed up in my head

This is my big soap box. We gave the presidency too much power with the PATRIOT Act, extrajudicial drone strikes, indefinite detention and the creation of the Department of Homeland Security. Trump is just using executive authority Congress gave to the presidency after 9/11 to maximum effect.

Fucking timeline is fucked

U.S. Department of Defense's Inspector General's report on the Signalgate saga is now online

You have to admit, this one is a bit confusing to understand.

Pumpkin spice latte protest??

I try my hardest to avoid this one, but this one is the one I reference the most

“the USPS must turn a profit” makes me want to set things on fire

they put a clause in the fucking constitution about postal service, that’s how important it is

nothing in there about “only if you can make money on it”

what a horrible timeline anyways.

That might make some sense

A thing I have to wonder (as a response to his answer), "There was enough of the boat left too flip over???"

I realize everyone knows this, but you'll note that what he saw was two survivors trying to flip a boat over.

Which is a thing literally fucking anyone in a shipwreck would do.

The other stuff he said was fanfic he made up about them.

What a terrible day to have eyes

Let them have their cake and eat it too

SCOOP: Sources tell me Donald Trump's name was added to the exterior of the US Institute of Peace building ahead of Thursday's peace agreement signing between Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), which will be held inside the building. Confirming if it's been officially renamed.

And there has never been any need to defend eugenics.
NEVER.
There are ZERO ethical, moral, philosophical or scientific justifications for eugenics.
You cannot have just a smidge of "nice" eugenics.

Amtrak Mardi Gras route train collides with truck, the third crash in less than 3 months Here’s what we know.

Serious question: why is it always "the train collides with vehicle" and framed as a problem with trains, not cars?

Sorry boss, can't come to work today, experiencing equipment issues

Listening to Arvo Pärt and trying very hard to be serene and not misanthropic.

Remember: Almost all of us are the descendants of immigrants who fled persecution, or were brought to America under duress, or sought better lives for themselves and their descendants.

Politicians who stoke fear and hatred over immigration want you to forget this.

Do not.

I suspect the people up in arms about disability accomodations for students also have a problem with reasonable disability accomodations in the workplace, they just aren't as willing to say that part out loud

Unless your position is that extra time on exams is not a reasonable accomodation what exactly is the difference? It sounds to me like you want the meritocracy to tell you that you're the most special boy and you think accomodating disabilities gives those sneaky disabled people an unfair advantage

1994 and this post would be ***perfect***

People don't bring it up much but of course we know it really hasn't been the same since Santa died in 1999. The new guy is okay but just doesn't have the same rizz. And once the files were opened and we learned all the unfortunate stuff about Original Santa the whole thing just felt off.

INITIAL - Skeleton?

That is very nice

We're shutting down again in Feb everyone knows that right
