Every Super Bowl ad was just β€œHEY REMEMBER THIS SHIT? HUH? YOU REMEMBER THE POP CULTURE YOU CONSUMED THAT ONE TIME IN YOUR LIFE WHEN NOT ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING FUCKING SUCKED. REMEMBER THAT?? brought to you by a company causing your electric bill to increase 287%”

Before that, in medieval times East African slaves were stolen by the Indian Ocean slave trade to work sugar plantations in the Middle East and Central Asia. It's a brutal cash crop

This was after the July 4 Russia Today lunch in Moscow, though, right?

Minneapolis protesters arrested during one-month anniversary of Renee Good’s death Several demonstrators taken into custody Saturday after marking killing of Minnesota woman by immigration officer

"One person, as they appear to be placed in handcuffs, says: 'I was here delivering pizza for the protesters. I had no idea that this was happening. I moved to the side of the curb when they started rushing everyone and now they’re arresting me.'"

Ring also has partnerships (or pending) with two of the biggest police surveillance companies that are growing apps that merges dozens of data streams, Flock and Axonβ€”how will search party show up in that partnership? Maybe not at all but it’s always a fluid and secretive situation!

That Ring β€œsearch party” ad was unsubtle enough that even my 10yo watched it and was like β€œare they gonna use this for ICE?”

For those unaware, SpaceX has already shifted focus to building a self-growing city on the Moon, as we can potentially achieve that in less than 10 years, whereas Mars would take 20+ years.

My favorite Super Bowl memory is still when Elon Musk was at the 2023 game in Arizona and panicked about his Eagles tweet getting less engagement than Joe Biden's. He then flew immediately to Twitter's San Francisco office to start emergency meetings to fix the site's algorithm.

Yes, there was a real wedding during Bad Bunny's Super Bowl halftime show Bad Bunny's Super Bowl halftime show featured a real wedding. About five minutes into the performance at Levi's Stadium, a couple was married on stage.

A couple invited Bad Bunny to their wedding. He suggested they be part of his halftime show instead.

"β€œAny claim that there are subprime conditions at ICE facilities are FALSE,” DHS said in a statement Feb. 7."

Good. Then YOU won't have any problem with us going in with cameras to confirm that to the people.

They are the conservatives. Whatever the Never Trumpets thought that word meant, they were wrong. It never meant anything but white supremacy and the people who sincerely believed it was about Oakeshott or whatever were being foolish

I guess the implication here is supposed to be that we shouldn’t tarnish the good name of conservatives by associating them with Nazis to which I say [waves arms at the last 50 years]

When it comes to choosing between storing a championship ring or trophy in a room, or providing kids with an opportunity to change their lives, the choice is pretty simple. Sell it all.
