I'm rewatching Bring Her Back. Maybe I'll be a brave boy this time and not block my eyes for the worst bits!

We Are Lindsey Graham We Carry the Flame

If you betray every principle you have to keep your job for an extra 8 years, then one day you can have a buffoon president eulogize you in a not tweet where he typoes by not hitting the space bar. 🫡

President Trump on the death of U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham. Graham died at age 71 on Saturday evening in Washington, D.C., after emergency personnel were called to his home for a reported cardiac arrest.

If Lindsey Graham didn't want me to mock him in death, then he wouldn't have become a contemptible person to Lindsey Graham. If anything, I'm *honoring* Senator Graham.

he actually did the meme

Conor McGregor blew out his knee on his very first kick and his debut after a five year hiatus ends in the first round

Lindsay Graham was, I think, one of the most contemptible figures in US politics, a titan of respectable bipartisan foreign policy for years who displayed no principles, no insight, and no beliefs beyond a gleeful and vicarious love of violence. An indictment of every institution he served in. RIP.

I think maybe people think platner was a bluesky guy, but he was always very Twitter, in a broader sense than just support.

My AC decided to break in the middle of summer in Florida so I'm basically living a European lifestyle now.

Anyone else screaming at their TV playing mina the hollower?

Holy shit. I'm watching the green book and I expected it to maybe be better than the complaints, but this is much worse than crash. This movie is fucking *awful*.

I'm tired boss

I’m sorry but y’all are truly unhinged.

One of the few great things Jonah Goldberg has written is describing this type of writing as "Conservatives in the Mist"

Nothing New York media likes better than going to the provinces and talking to the savages

I remember when the Obama Iran nuclear deal was unacceptable to Trump solely on the basis that it unfroze Iranian funds. (It also made no sense anyways, because Trump didn't refreeze the funds bc that's not a thing that is/was possible.)

One thing is to withdraw, another thing is to withdraw with defeat.

I really try to stay off this type of social media, but without football it's hard. But I have watched like 2 hours of colin cowherd out of desperation and that's probably worse for my mental health than bluesky tbh.

No tint on the glass. Colonel Sanders.

Pretty rich that all this is happening in response to SCOTUS essentially asserting that the US is post racist and no longer needs Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act to address racial discrimination in voting

“Speaker of the TN House Cameron Sexton just removed me and every Democrat — and therefore every Black elected official in the state legislature from any committee we served on," Rep. Pearson said. Fascist reprisals for protesting.

It's ridiculous, but this is what Orbanism looks like. Eventually the news is justa feed of scary bs, and even worse, that scary bs can be "guy said x!" When guy really said "~x!" and now you have to explain to your parents not just a diff in opinion, but a difference in the very most basic facts.

The elite’s capture of America’s covid-19 response

I think if I was in law school it would be my duty to consistently prank the federalist society kids until they quit.

Dissent is pretty good reading tbh

My feed was consistently furry porn and for a minute I judged all of you, but then I realized. I was in "what's hot classic" and I apologize for that.

It's very rough to be a Pittsburgh and Orlando fan. Can I experience a single playoff win please?

Learning that the epic crowd work guy’s parents are a private equity guy and a woman who dated Jeff Epstein before watching the video really makes this hit different

We gotta start sending Americans to gun school.

I legitimately was like "what are you talking about, I know exactly who this is" for a second before I finished reading.

I’ve literally never heard of this man labelled “America’s most acclaimed novelist” by GQ, and who is not Will Poulter from Black Mirror

One of the worst things to happen to America was journalism ceasing to be a middle income career like teaching or accounting and transforming into a bullshit job for precocious rich kids because parental subsidies are required for your first decade in the business.

Feels great that, during a large shortage of tech jobs, Meta has continually fired their employees over and over bc Zuckerberg is an idiot who had half of a single good idea and is filling the market with ex-FANG guys. I'm just going to take my degree and become a walmart greeter.

The addled president fired the secretary of the Navy for failing to deliver an impossible supership he made up in three years

Apparently the Steelers were on the phone with Lemon when Jerry gave the Eagles their pick for a bag of Doritos. (I hate the Cowboys.)

My take on the draft is that Max Iheanachor is going to be a perennial all-pro and KC Concepcion will be out of the league in 4 years.
