So you follow rando's on bluesky and this is your pinned skeet? F-off. Blocked.

One of the hardest jobs in the world has to be the estate attorney trying to parse who gets what, amongst the six sons that all are named George Foreman.

Thus begins the Dance Of Dragons of the remaining George Foreman's. Long live George Foreman VI, sixth of his name, the most worthy, and the true heir of the Foreman Grill empire.

Just wait til next year, with a 10 minute tribute to the Fast and Furious franchise, featuring Pitbull and Robin Thicke.

Click on the magnifying glass icon in your browser bar, then select "DuckDuckGo" as your default search engine.

Take a second:
1. Google Gulf of Mexico
2. β€œGulf of America" is at the top
3. Click on the three dots to the right
4. Select "Send Feedback"
5. Click on "Gulf Of America"
6. Select "Inaccurate content"
7. Select "Incorrect" and type in "The correct name is β€œGulf of Mexico"

I generally watch one football game a year, but am constantly surprised at how bad football players are at catching footballs.

Perhaps the worst choice America made was to hold elections in November. That β€œFuck it, we’ll fix it next year” energy is like holding it at 11:15 PM New Years Eve. To truly harness that β€œI’m joining a gym, for a month” energy, Election Day should be held, ironically, on Jan 6.

I assume by this signage I CAN discharge ammo within 300 feet.

Thanks, amazing analysis. Wasn't just thinking of left abstainers, but 2-4 mostly applies to the both-sides crew as well. In particular I find #2 most compelling. With media being able to micro-target and mirror a persons specific mindset, they lose site of a compromise/consensus solution.

This was eye opening to me. Wondering how this applies to the many non-voters who say they hate Trump but stayed home this election. Perhaps the similar lack of collectivism? Perhaps a misguided desire to to feel superior to others, morally?

This is by far the best analysis of the election I have read, and spot on. Resonated with me to the core. It does not offer a solution, but at least it stares the problem directly in the face, unblinkingly. That's a start.

In 1995 evil owner Art Modell moved the Cleveland Browns, who had existed for over 50 years, to Baltimore and called them the Ravens. Just 4 years later a new team arrived in Cleveland with the Browns name, uniforms and history.

Point is, by 2026 this place will be called Twitter.

β€œThey’ll teach twitter’s collapse in business schools”

Maybe? I guess so. Probably less informative than you’d think though. You could also show Wile E Coyote cartoons as part of OSHA training but most workers probably weren’t planning to glue firework rockets on their roller skates

The assumption the sub only has 30 hours of oxygen left ignores the extremely likely scenario that, upon the first sign of trouble, the billionaire murdered the other four people.

The incredible balls on this announcer, on this pre-taped, very much never broadcast live, Pro Cornhole League match on ESPN2, saying they were taking a "media timeout".

Denver Nuggets have such an unfair advantage, based on altitude. NBA needs to correct. Based on sea level. ie Knicks home games: shoot on 100' rim. Nuggets: shove a ball into an impossibly deep 4000 foot hole.

Joe Mazzulla seems like someone who watched Ted Lasso and did not realize it was fiction.

Surely this does not apply to the jokes of James Bong.
