In my neighborhood this morning. This Cybertruck is towing an enclosed trailer. Will report later if the bumper & trailer are still in place after the truck leaves.

I was approached by fake cheerful but slightly aggressive tract-toting Christians on the sidewalk today. I indicated I was not interested. He persisted with "I have a question for you." Was it rude to reply "Yes they're real. No you can't touch them." before walking off? ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ would do it again

Such cazy news! They're withdrawing the subpoenas issued for NYT journalists. It's almost as if it was never about "finding the truth" and is more about intimidation. Support and defend a free press. Democracy does in the dark.

Heading to the beach for a week, bringing a large cooler with us. We stopped for ice and Kris tightened the ratchet straps down. BUT he didn't slap it and say "That's not going anywhere." So to set the universe and avoid potential calamity, I had to do it. He watched, bemused. Am I a Dad now?

A large blue cooler filled with 20lbs of ice. It's strapped on a platform behind a truck. It's not going anywhere.

The only thing to do to maintain the integrity of the USMNT is to not put Balogun in the line up. Sit him down on the bench. Make him stay in the locker room. I don't care. It's the only thing that balances out the World Cup because Trump stuck his fat butcher thumb on the scale.

Billionaire Knicks owner, James Dolan, cancelled the NBA finals watch party outside Madison Square Garden last night, for game 4. So mayor of New York fuck'n City turned the whole city into one gigantic watch party! Watch the reaction from real Knicks fans.

Ohio State University settles lawsuit from 280 former Buckeyes who were abused by Strauss for failing to protect them from a predator. How unsurprising that Rep Jim Jordan has been named by several victims to be complicit in knowing about and hiding the abuse.

Ohio State University reaches $100 million settlement in sex abuse lawsuits All but one of the 280 former students who sued the school through five lawsuits for failing to protect them from a man accused of being a sexual predator have signed on to the agreement. U.S. Rep. Jim Jordan, the powerful Republican congressman from Ohio, was among the former coaches DiSabato and numerous other former OSU wrestlers accused of having done nothing to stop Strauss from abusing them. Jordan was an assistant wrestling coach at Ohio State from 1986 to 1994. He has repeatedly denied any knowledge of what Strauss is alleged to have done to the athletes. 2 134 3

Me, noticing my husband staring intently over my shoulder: Are you watching basketball, baseball or hockey? Him: I'm looking at the beer menu. Literally the most Kris Merritt of answers he could have given me.

Chief Justice bemoans that the American people finally realized the Supreme Court has failed to protect the rights of We, The People in it's rush to advance a white rich male centric political agenda. There, I fixed it.

NEW: Chief Justice John Roberts bemoans that Americans don't understand how the Supreme Court operates and see justices as "political actors". The court at times simply has to make "unpopular" decisions, he adds: www.nbcnews.com/politics/sup...
