I can’t believe I’m writing this…

This morning, a family member was taken away by ICE.

We have no idea where this person is being taken to, if we’ll ever see them again, or how they’ll be able to restart in a new random country with nothing to their name.

With each passing day, I get slightly more adventurous with the Indian tap water. So far, so good, but I am sure this ends with the most excruciating flight home imaginable

I know less about gambling than dildos and don’t know much about the latter, but can’t you just bet $10K on blue and bring one to the game, chuck it onto the court and win?

TRUE FACT: By simply calling it flatbread instead of pizza, you absorb only 75% of the calories.

Specifically, I have seen far too many β€œlive” updates happen several minutes after the fact. There used to be an urgency to show the latest highlights NOW, but now they let other narratives play out first instead

People mad/worried about RedZone being compromised by ESPN do not acknowledge that it has already been slowly degraded the last couple of years.
