  1. I heard a rumor that he didn't get the job because he trashed the Saint's locker room.
  2. Not ballgame, but Spurs need to get a goal quick.
  3. Was just about to come and celebrate that Muani goal.
  4. I live in Winchester about 5 miles away as the crow flies from Revere. This hits close to home.
  5. Info on Doge ... queued up around 24:50 when this talk is in here:
  6. I also thought this one was pretty "good":
  7. Is this bad, this seems bad https://bsky.app/profile/mcopelov.bsky.social/post/3m6iammpxbc2a Paywalled - https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-11-25/witkoff-advised-russia-on-how-to-pitch-ukraine-plan-to-trump
  8. AND what a shock Meta buried 'causal' evidence of social media harm, US court filings allege Plaintiffs allege Meta hid product risks from users and authorities Meta accused of ineffective youth safety features and prioritizing growth over safety Meta opposed unsealing of internal documents in court Meta allegedly ignored valid research findings on mental health impacts TikTok allegedly influenced National PTA to publicly support its safety claims https://www.reuters.com/sustainability/boards-policy-regulation/meta-buried-causal-evidence-social-media-harm-us-court-filings-allege-2025-11-23/
  9. Patel was on thin ice for not having Trump's signature "look." So he had better have been damn good at his job and SHOCKING, he wasn't.
  10. I always thought of them more as conquered by their own grief and falling on their own sword.
  11. The draw is being altered slightly. FIFA is adopting a tennis style seeding, with the top 4 teams in the World - Spain, Argentina, France and England - being placed in such a way that should they win their groups - they cannot meet in the knockout rounds until the Semis. Given that Mexico, Canada and the USA are in groups A, B and D respectively, that means the Top 4 Appear to be being placed in Groups C, E, G and K. I gotta say that really fucks Canada and the US. Our group winners meet up with two of these teams in the round of 16: Group D-G and Group B-K. Mexico wouldn't meet one of these teams until the Quarters.

  12. Are the French legionnaires in the room right now?
  13. Maybe this is just the "Cocaine Ketamine is a hell of a drug" moment? Elon's grasp of reality continues to slip and he does incredibly dumb things. "This feature will be great!" <staff implements it> "Oh CRAP!!!" <it's pulled> <its back up> "It's broken a little!" In the end, keep up the stupid Elon, I'm sure something is going to eventually work.
  14. Why did the AI generate picture Elon with butt hole eyes? Also the quote in question from Elon is pretty funny: "unworkable requirements" You mean shit like meeting automotive industry safety standards? Who wants to be tied down to shit like that? Oh you know companies that actually DO take on liability for the performance/results/behaviors of their vehicles. Not like Elon would know anything about that.
  15. Great line in a Dr Octagon song
  16. In a different futbol The TL;DR - FIFA is getting to use the Kennedy Center for $0 rent and making "donations" 😉 to the center for use. FIFA's use has "led to the rescheduling or cancellation of shows and has effectively cost the Center millions of dollars in relinquished rental fees." For the non-subscribers:
  17. I won't post the text at risk of CRing this thread, but a good read.
  18. A direct reply to that
  19. https://streamff.com/v/706b89e7 That's some wild stuff.
  20. You know what I remember? The reasonable ones never able to fully disavow Trump. What bottles the mind is that given the chance to fully call him out, they won't. Mitt Romney could have come correct last year and instead wanted to have it both ways. He wanted Trump out without needing to do the work, but then wanted to retain power in the GOP. Instead he got nothing. Hell, I posted that Swisher above, last week she interviewed Scott Jennings, a GOP pundit from CNN, a former anti-Trumper now a full Trumper and they guy when pressed with some awful realities just side-stepped, dodged and weaved. You could tell he didn't agree with the course of actions, but never could say "no, he was wrong there." So yeah ... This 100,000,000%
