Change of behavior for the clips - didn't post anything from their media day. Wonder why.... https://www.tomthefinder.com/p/amid-kawhi-investigation-the-clippers “We are eager for the whole truth,” Frank said during a prepared statement, “the whole picture to be revealed.” The team’s digital channels don’t seem so eager. You can’t find those remarks anywhere on the Clippers’ official channels. As of Thursday morning, the Clippers’ official YouTube account has not posted a single video from Media Day or training camp, breaking away from its own tradition and standard practice from NBA teams. Want to hear what its superstar Kawhi Leonard had to say about his first healthy offseason in years? Chris Paul’s long-awaited return to the Media Day podium in a Clippers uniform? Newcomer Bradley Beal? You’ll have to keep waiting. The team’s 219,000 subscribers have only a highlight reel of James Harden scoring lots of points, posted on September 24, to watch. The lack of activity from the organization’s official feed represents a stark contrast to their publishing cadence in the past. Here is what their feed looked after last year’s Media Day:

I like Homefield in general but damn if it isn't annoying how so much of their best stuff doesn't include Texas. -

notably - Robert Morris was also President Trump's spiritual advisor during the 45th presidency. So, it tracks that the Pedophile President has pedophile spiritual advisors. -
Government Shutdown 2025: This Time It’s Personal
Nivek replied to Bozo_Casanova's topic in Cloak Room
Another thing I failed to address. This week Bessant was caught admitting how we fucked over American farmers with tariffs, then Argentina won that business from America, and now we are propping up their government and subsidizing their farming of soybeans at our taxpayers expense. Last term, Trump took $28 billion from tax money to pay the farmers for the damage he caused. Redistribution of wealth. This term, he is reportedly looking at sending them $10 billion from the tax money collected to pay farmers for the damage he caused. Redistribution of wealth. For a party that cries about redistributing of wealth, you certainly have no qualms about stealing tax money from urban regions and using it to pay for the poor rural folks to not work, to not sell goods, to not support their own communities. If American farmers can't make a go of it, fuck em. Let someone else do their job. Or are you some sort of commie? -
Game Week Thread 2025 Game Week 5: Texas at Florida
Red Five replied to Wulaw Horn's topic in Football
Kinda sorta seems like we have two true freshmen who are already pushing Guilbeau at corner. To say nothing of Kobe Black, and MM when healthy, obviously. Guilbeau needs to be back at star pretty soon IMO. -

Government Shutdown 2025: This Time It’s Personal
Bozo_Casanova replied to Bozo_Casanova's topic in Cloak Room
@Nivek you are missing the point. When I talk about Warren’s toxicity, I’m talking about the negative electoral drag her influence exerts on the rest of the party, and since her “leadership” on bitcoin played a decisive role in making Trump president, it’s hard to argue otherwise. And Hillary Clinton’s largely unearned influence did the same thing. And you seem to understand the point, but choose to ignore it, since you seem to think that Ted Cruz is liked by Republicans and R-leans, which is flatly incorrect. He’s mostly tolerated. So no, I am not falling for right-wing anything. What I am doing is humbling myself to the reality of the situation and what the data tells me, regardless of whether it confirms my worldview or aspirations. The fact that the Democratic Party doesn’t have the strategic discipline to do the same is the primary reason I don’t really identify with it anymore. Hope is great, but it’s not a strategy. Neither is disdain. -
One Battle After Another, the next Paul Thomas Anderson film
LCHorn replied to mdmost's topic in Movies and TV
I'm still stewing on my thoughts, but what a rich experience. It's just so welcome to have a film chock full of ideas. I was trying to place PTA in the pantheon of filmmakers, and one thing I think he does better than anyone else consistently is endings. A lot of that is the ride leading up to it, but his super-power is wrapping it up. -
Not sure if any of yall know him personally. But thought this board would want to know…

What I find fascinating is that this great "crisis" in higher ed is almost entirely made up. For real. To get an accurate picture, measure things RELATIVELY. Yep, academia has more hippie-dippie leftist types in it.....just like it did in the 60s, 70s, 80s, etc. FFS, it was a discussion and a real thing when I was on campus, back in the days of popped collars and sorority girls wearing wind shorts. Is it materially greater/worse, than it was before? Nope. Higher education typically leads to more nuanced, moderated thinking. Sorry, conservatives, that's just the way it be. Kind of like traveling makes it much less likely that you'll be a xenophobic bigot. Foreign students? Same deal. DEI and affirmative action? Well, first....the venom for "DEI" is utterly insane bullshit. DEI efforts do not grant admission preferences. Instead, they do things like increase recruiting at historically underrepresented high schools and communities, offer college readiness/prep to students in those schools, and provide resources for them when the get here because they have fewer such resources than students from college-educated families. Sorry, guys, but the reality is that the American legacy of racial discrimination has a LONG tail when it comes to education, success, and family wealth. We locked black people out of home ownership/owning homes in valuable neighborhoods for generations, so their ability to build equity wealth that passed on was sharply limited, and that takes generations to fix. And no, the students at Westlake and Alamo Heights don't need to be recruited, don't need to be offered college readiness assistance. Honestly, I think that UT's top 10% (or top 5% or whatever it is these days) does a decent job of getting a diverse student body, but the kid who is top 5% at Shit Hole High still needs to know what UT has to offer, and may need some help navigating UT once he gets here, because he's the first kid in his family to go to college. "Merit-based" but "ignore that some people are born on 3rd base while others have to sneak into the stadium" is a shitty approach to building an educated population. And I say this as a college-prep educated kid, son of a college grad with kids who were raised by people with 5 degrees between them. Cool, my kids had every advantage, and they will find success. But we're also helping a refugee, first-gen American with few resources navigate the college process now, and it's a very different game. If America in the next generation is going to prosper, that kid needs to get the full benefits of higher ed as well. We should all be in favor of that. Tuition? Now THAT is a worthwhile conversation. Relatively speaking (I really like the metric of "how many hours a week would you have to work to pay your tuition, room, and board?"), it's gone way up. Real action needs to be taken, some of it shouldn't be pleasant (e.g., free flow of student loan dollars had a "pump up the money supply, you inflate prices to match" effect). But this shit? It's thought control bullshit, and that's their open goal. Stop pretending it's anything but that.

Mittens replied to MuellerHorn's topic in Baseball
I'm excited about next year. Tons of young arms. Casas coming back. A full year of Anthony. As chaotic as this year was, they figured it out and made the playoffs, and that's something to build on for sure. -
