They're going back to their old super conservative ways where they can't call aggressive scoring plays, even from the red zone. I think last week was a fluke.

β€œRather than AI being able to enhance human innovation, critical thinking, the progress of scienceβ€”it’s being used to exploit our insecurities. That’s the thing about so many of these Silicon Valley tech bros. They’re essentially emotionally maladapted psychopaths.”

Speaking nothing but the truth.

People in some states are already getting notices about their health insurance prices doubling or tripling. Arizonans will see their increases when they sign up next month. This is simply unaffordable, and the American people are counting on us to do something about it.

Book: John Fugelsang, Separation of Church & Hate

"'Love your neighbor as yourself' is a commandment, not an option. It's an order that transcends social boundaries, identities, & comfort levels. Jesus goes out of his way to preach compassion for any outsiders a society has decided it's allowed to hate.

Ted finally deleted this lie over 24 hours later. Only the 900th time he has posted a fake right-wing internet lie. You would think a US Senator would take a few minutes to make sure these things are legit, but we are talking about Ted Cruz.

IRS files tax lien against Jim Justice The former governor, who joined the Senate in 2025, has repeatedly brushed off questions about his finances.

The IRS has filed a tax lien against Republican Sen. Jim Justice of West Virginia.

It's the latest example of ongoing financial troubles that have trailed the former governor, members of his family and their network of businesses over the years.

Trump’s tariff formula used the wrong value in its calculations, conservative think tank says. β€˜This whole thing was rigged’ β€œWhat’s driving the policy is that since the 1980s Trump has been a protectionist, and he thinks trade deficits are losses and trade surpluses are profits,” AEI’s Stan Veuger told Fortune.

The math ain't mathing...

Their "One Drive" is even more annoying. You keep clicking you're not interested but every few days they spam you again to remind you're not signed in. Is it really necessary on Windows 11? And if not, is there any way to get rid of it completely.....like forever? πŸ™ƒ

Whoa! The shutdown’s ripple effect starting to hit.

Burbank Airport in LA County has no air traffic controllers on duty due to sick calls, last-minute day-off requests, and staffing shortages.

If you’re flying anywhere in the country, check for delays.

Nothing has ever trickled down.

Airlines merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today.

Four giants control 80% of meat processing.

A handful of companies control the pharmaceutical industry.

The evidence of corporate concentration is everywhere.

It means more power for them and less freedom for you.

The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns.

The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate.

Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care.

The list goes on and on.

Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

As long as guns are easily available to crazy people, mass killings directed at so-called soft targets will continue. This is a fact. Countries where it's more difficult for crazy people to obtain guns have less shootings. This is also a fact. Do with these facts as you will.

Children murdered because they went to school.

Seniors shots because they went to mass.

Public servants assassinated because they chose to serve.

When will it be enough for us to decide that we deserve better? To acknowledge that we, quite literally, cannot live like this?

The Department of Homeland Security is reportedly barring states and organizations that receive government funds from helping undocumented immigrants.

This will make it harder for the most vulnerable people to get help in the aftermath of disasters.

It was always about cruelty.

'Flesh-Eating' Bacteria Vibrio Cases Are Rising in Several States. Should You Skip the Beach? Ten people have died in the U.S. this year, mostly in Florida and Louisiana, from Vibrio vulnificus, a "flesh-eating" bacteria that spreads through seawater and shellfish.

My dad just emailed me about this- be careful if you’re going in the water in the Gulf in Louisiana, or eating raw shellfish from here. Don’t go swimming if you’ve got uncovered wounds of any kind. There are cases elsewhere in the Gulf, and as far north as Massachusetts.

Their latest GFM reads:

Any funds earned will be used for fixing our car and taking care of all our cats. We appreciate all the help given prior for our storage unit. That has given us some piece of mind during these trying times. Still waiting for SSI approval which could take some time. Thank you for all the help it truly means a lot.”

when I hear people hacking on the homeless (not trying hard enough, just want drugs, freeloaders by choice, prefer to steal than to work) I wish I could explain to them how hard it is to act in your own best interest in a world that's devoted itself to enhancing your misery.

94% of teachers have had to dip into their own pockets to buy school supplies. An estimated 1 in 6 have second jobs during the school year to make ends meet.

The average Wall Street employee got a record $244,700 bonus last year.
