The world is crazy but my kid went to showcase in Omaha this weekend and went 1-0-1 with a 1.00 GAA and stopped 68 of 70 shots. Great kid. Terrible haircut, but great kid.

Most coastal New England pic yet. Poland spring bottle for effect.

The idiots are in charge and we have to live in the world they’ve created. Fuck everything.

My bar of soap cost me thirty min and complete search at airport. The 9/11 guys won by making our lives miserable. Fucking insane

Interior Secretary Doug Burgum says they're starting excavation work on Trump's arch

Doug Burgum: We are pleased to announce that after a very long wait (over 125 years!), we are preparing to start, over the next two-week period, the excavation work necessary for the Great Triumphal Arch and Military Observation Deck, at Memorial Circle on Columbia Island between the Lincoln Memorial and Arlington National Cemetery. This will be one of the Great Pieces of American Architecture, honoring the history and significance of Arlington Cemetery and befitting the most powerful Capital in the World.

Reminded that my father had a suit like that that he loved.

Happy anniversary to all who celebrate

So guess he has to ban Gordon Lightfoot now.

Holy shit — the purpose of this Trump event is to announce that he’s changing the name of Lake Ontario to “Lake America.” It will be interesting to see which if any institutions and companies go along with this

What’s funny and scary is that Lutnick made a fortune w/Cantor and had lots of sympathy from 9/11 and yet he will publicly eat this crap for Trump like he needs the work to eat.

Q: Why not just put Trump's name on the building in two years after the renovation is done? Isn't that usually how it works? LUTNICK: Actually, that's not usually how it works. When you have the greatest philanthropist, you just need him to agree. He is the most credible person in the world.

Funny bc I was at the Ben Folds concert last year where he said he resigned from the NSO board bc of DT. I’d say he’s more credible.

Trump claims the leadership of the National Symphony Orchestra was "in my office when we made the deal, and the leadership stared crying. Because they didn't know how much the president loves them."

Gutless.

The Navy is weighing renaming an aircraft carrier under construction that was set to honor Doris Miller, a Black war hero, and potentially switching it to honor Trump

Reminder that he sees them all as cannon fodder no matter what platitudes he mouths.

Q: The family members of US service members are concerned about the conditions on the USS Lincoln TRUMP: No they're not Q: Has the deployment gone on too long? TRUMP: No no no. Not nearly long enough.

We could really use a soft ban on professors at top 30 schools (and hard ban on top 10 college professors) pontificating on the state of American colleges. You are so far removed from the average experience you might as well be on Mars.

Over last 100 years no vaccine has been as much a threat to public health as the actions of the Kennedy men have.

I’ve got a personal commitment that enslavement of humans is evil. Fire me for that, I guess.

In a declaration, the board states intention to impose ideological control, under the guise of neutrality: "Faculty..fail in their responsibility if course offerings, syllabi, or class discussions suppress or promote ideas and perspectives that are rooted in political or personal commitments" 2/x

Most of the Covid critics then and now are motivated by the need to defend the votes they cast on 2016 that left that fucking Guy in charge in an emergency.

His brothers OD and ski into trees and somehow this one survived. Should have put all the Kennedys men on an island far away. Jackie O knew this.

Had to get Skubal after they saw the Red Sox up close. I'll see myself out now.

19yo just got tattoo. Texts among him and my brother and me followed.

We live in Jonestown now. The combination of eugenics, racism, greed, and sheer ignorance on display daily is breathtaking. I’ve studied the declines of empires but never wanted to live through one.

Sen. Roger Marshall: "Who didn't have a friend who took this vaccine and had some time of complication? A stroke, a blood clot, a young man getting some type of heart inflammation. That's what destroyed the trust in the American people for our government."

Didn’t think he could bankrupt a casino either. He loves to prove the doubters wrong

I will confess that I did not believe he would get below 35%. I thought that was his floor. Color me intrigued.

moving Dulles a mile from the district is the only way it can be improved.

Trump: "The last major airport built in the US was Denver in 1995. It hasn't gotten very great reviews. So we're doing something with Dulles that's gonna make it I think maybe the top anywhere in the world. By the way, Palm Beach is gonna be one of the top too."
