Sam Darnold is averaging 10.1 yards per attempt. There is not a Seahawk with more than one reception. JSN doesn't have a target.

"the menswear guy isn't fair and balanced." do you even hear yourself?

"fork lady is eroding public confidence."

"ladder baby is undermining the credibility of the field."

"lemon raccoon is acting without transparency or accountability."

that's what you sound like.

I know this has come up before, but it still boggles my mind that there's an account out here that labels itself as the "official" resistance account for the National Park Service and there are a ton of people who buy that and get mad if you question it.

Like what the hell makes you "official"??

Fun fact: My former State Rep. Melody Hernandez apparently got the nickname "the ethical Hernandez" from her peers in the state legislature to distinguish herself from Daniel and his siblings.

(This was before former State Sen./current Councilwoman Anna Hernandez won a seat, who's also dope)

I once got denied service in Barcelona for speaking Spanish *too* well - it was a Catalan nationalist bar, and my accent (learned it from Mexican-American teachers) must have seemed like I was from Madrid. Bartender was astounded when I produced a US passport, and gladly served me afterwards.
