Both the NYT and NBC reported within the hour that SCOTUS said “no” to turnip on the issue of National Guard troops in Illinois. No idea about the particulars, and of course this but a data point amidst fluidity,
So when he does it anyway does everyone just throw their hands in the air and say “well he’s the boss so let’s head out to Illinois!”

Fascinating that we have a pdf from the DOJ's website of this Epstein letter to Nassar, which was confirmed to have existed by Rolling Stone in a 2023 article (but letter hadn't been opened yet per reporting), and the contents of which are absolutely explosive and pointed directly at Trump...yet everyone is treading lightly about it. In a previous world, this alleged piece of evidence would be a global story and all anyone talks about.
Trump getting away with everything and the constant misinformation we are fed has completed altered our reality.
Outside of the United States it is what people talk about. I meet people from all over the world and anytime TFG’s name comes up they just assume he’s a pedophile and ask why he is not in prison for what he did.

Watched it in IMAX 3D. Had to go back for the last hour and a half today because my eye has a cut on it and I could take about two hours exposed to light before it was too much. There are some scenes that were a bit long and the movie could’ve been a bit shorter, but those are trivial complaints. Watching it in that format is just incredible. If my eye wasn’t so irritated right now I’d go and watch it again this week. I love all the attention to detail put into the movie and Inam glad James Cameron has spent the time on the Avatar films that he has. When you care that much about a project and put in the work he and his team have you get beautiful work like this.

friends, its been hard days since 2016. Jan 6th was bad, the wars are bad, and the dumbasses are big bad. But today is maybe the worst day for me as an American. The gov is obviously working to coverup a decades long, global human trafficking ring, which yeah, we all know, but now its out there in plain sight. In addition, we are committing crimes against humanity with this deportation mess, which I know, we know. Its a fucking travesty that these poor fucking people are removed from their families, not given any due process, and sent to a prison where they are goddamn sexually and physically assaulted. I just can't fucking take it today. I am mortified. New video here that was (maybe) the 60 minutes piece banned or not allowed to show
I got through about five minutes of it earlier. That was more than enough to make me dislike these people even more. Nothing but racist white trash at all levels of our government that deserves all of this in return when they have to one day answer for this.

That is because they were on islands (a long way away from each other) and to your last point, sustained and large-scale war requires a certain level of technology and bureaucracy to include writing. As far as treating each other better, it’s a matter of perspective. Europeans generally did not eat people they defeated on the battlefield.
Calling them savages without calling them savages.

Got along with each other? Man, you might want to touch up on your pre European Māori history.
They could get their fucking war on. If you were drafting an army from scratch, they are potential #1 picks.
I am aware of their history and when they fought it didn’t go on continuously like Europe because kings and queens treated war like a sport all the way into the 20th Century. The Pacific Peoples are more interesting and still treated each other better than the people that populated Europe, even in war footing time. The only thing they don’t have that the barbarians in Europe do is an extensive written history noting all the wars they fought on that continent.

And formerly Anglo-Saxons, Picts and Normans.
Sometimes I wish I could find an interest in European history outside of my dad’s home country, but I always conclude it’s not worth the effort so I stick with learning about Pacific Peoples instead. Far more interesting to me at least and these people got along with each other better most of the time and thrived in some of the most remote places on the planet until white people showed up.

This right here is something every single person should look at that blames minorities for their economic life being in shambles. It would take a massive societal upheaval to get equality for everyone in how we all live, but this is where you start. That we have people hoarding unconscionable amounts money that should be in circulation for everyone just really strikes a nerve with me. Even right now trying to type out my thoughts on that picture really overwhelms me.
I don’t know who the person or group will be that finally breaks this down and takes back the money that all Americans should have access to in the form of better pay or even programs to help people attain a better education, but I’ll support them. The amount of good paying jobs that could be created for people with that hoarded money would go a long way towards our society finding some middle ground. It’s all so pointless and ridiculous that we’re going into the year 2026 and we’ve still got a set of ghouls like the person in the center of the picture doing that to everyone.

Roth would be the guy to read and listen to here. He’s far and away the best political writer we have in America. Not even a close 2nd to his work. I asked him a similar question to this at one of Defector’s birthday parties about how he understands this stuff so well and the answer more/less was rich people are lazy.

But most of the people on this thread are saying that ~28% aren’t actually getting a smaller part, or if they are, they need to shut up because they make the people getting a bigger piece feel bad by looking like them.
I’ll gladly admit that this is not an area I am as well-versed in as others. I’ll gladly listen to others on this and what they think because the economics that undergird a society is always a complex issue. I think this is especially true in a country as multicultural as ours. We have had a dominant race economically (whites) since our inception. Now we HAVE to share that pie. I am in favor of that. We all live once and we should, for the sake of wanting a thriving multicultural society, want to see the wealth spread. Everyone benefits from that.
We are hurting as a society monetarily because we have a small percentage hoarding wealth while many of the rest of us are left to fight over scraps. It’s ridiculous on its face that the wealthiest country in the history of the world has so many people either already living in poverty or just a missed check away from the poorhouse. To me this is a sign of when a society will lose its moorings if things do not change. You cannot have a small class of people worth hundreds of millions to several hundred billion and expect that society to be thriving. This should be a shared concern for everyone. I feel the angst needs to be directed there because that old quote comes to mind of a house divided against itself cannot stand.
This doesn’t mean I support disenfranchised white men vs. minorities looking for their fair share of the pie. We all, college educated or not, need to look at the cartoon villains holding all the money tha holds our society back from realizing its promise of having an actual American dream instead of the nightmare it has become for millions of people. That sucks to me because we get this one chance at life and a small group of folks want the super majority of it for themselves. We can do better I think.

I'd really like to hear your solution. Empathize and then.... what? Let's say for a second the problem isn't discrimination against white men. Let's just assume the problem is that a person of lesser ability is angry because their lot in life sucks, and it sucks because our society does a poor job of providing for those with lesser abilities. Do we have to cater to their fantasies that white people are being discriminated against? Or can we try and address the problem of society doing a sucky job of providing for everyone?
Feels like a good place to start would be the ultra-wealthy class that has accumulated money to the point where most of the population, college educated or not, are fighting for a smaller and smaller economic pie. That part of the equation never seems to change.

LOL, Defector took this "interview" apart today. Good stuff.
Gift link for you guys:
The recap is 100x better than spending your time watching the real thing.
I love Defector. Not just for recaps like that, but overall. Best site I read each day.

Would be more appropriate to release her movie on pornhub.
She’s trash just like the rest of them. Has a voice like a B movie cartoon villain and has the intellectual abilities of, well, she’s right there with TFG so it’s not much. Anyone who ever feels bad for her needs to remember she signed up for this. I hope when this ends that she gets deported to Slovenia and that they deny her entry. Spend your life in a North Korean prison camp you worthless thief.

My wife and I have these in sweatshirt form.
I want to get these for my niece and nephew to wear next year. It will mean nothing to them at their age of 7 and 4 next year, but I still will get it and have them take a picture with their Grannie. Think I will get her a shirt I’ve had before. You serious Clark? I say that every single time someone says something ridiculous to me.

There were some holy shit moments for me, like watching him do the Three Amigos salute, and saying "Live from New York, it's Saturday Night". He also recited the "hallelujah, holy shit. Where's the Tylenol" rant.
It was fun watching Christmas Vacation in front of a large audience like that. There were, I think, three big applause moments. 1) When Cousin Eddie first shows up, 2) That rant, and 3) Chevy's "I did it' at the end. Really cool.
That rant was probably the highlight from when I saw him in 2023 in New Jersey. I want to say I was down in Newark at a really big theatre. I remember it was really nice. Like you I remember how cool it was watching the movie with a large audience. Good memories and thank you for sharing your experience.

You can also see her right nip in the bed scene where his hand gets stuck to her hair.
This is my favorite Christmas movie. She’s also in my 2nd favorite one, Violent Night. She was pretty humorous in that one as well.

Saw it at the Bass Concert Hall with a Q&A with Chevy afterwards. He's was Biden-esque. I really wouldn't expect him to be doing this again next year.
That fall in Buffalo in 2023 might have been worse than he let on. Either way it’s cool you were able to see him while he can still get out there. The movie just never gets old.

Dumb question:
Obviously the incoming freshman class will have holes and won’t solve the roster. Is it unreasonable to expect Texas to be active in the portal to fix the roster for next season?
I would guess you’ll be hitting up the portal if the roster is this mismatched.

I think it would be a good idea if we started our own PAC and donated towards the small amount politicians and organizations out there that actually deserve it.

I feel that some people, not just here but in life in general, think they have to share their opinion on everything. Guess what? YOU DON’T. If you do not like that Derka started this thread then don’t click on it and move on. Throwing in a negative comment about him, or anyone else starting a similar thread, is pointless on the part of the person doing it. This site has quite a few people who post in this manner (talking about thread police or people who ALWAYS have something negative to say about EVERYTHING.) and it’s old and tiresome. I put people on ignore who do this.
Maybe a decade ago I’d have antagonized when seeing this thread, but you learn about people and how we are all different and it changes the way you process thoughts. Now I’m glad Derka gets it out. It can be a way to get out frustrations with what he sees from the games and the man entrusted to coach this team. I’d say to keep posting about this Derka. You aren’t hurting anyone by doing so and neither would anyone else if they did something similar. Heck take a look at a football game day here to see how many random posts are started from people venting their anger and frustration.

Tonight in a game no one will willingly watch, UCLA takes on the 5th or 6th best coach in the Hurley family. I am sure @Sbbruin has been anticipating this matchup as little as I have. I at least hope UCLA can win this one. We don’t have many opportunities for wins left once conference play starts. The more losses that pile up the quicker this 12 year long reign of mediocrity can end. @Derka no matter how much a past his prime Sean Miller frustrates you just be glad you don’t have our guy instead.

I think Saban should shock everybody and take the Michigan job…..just for the hell of it…..then we could watch Bama heads explode!
That might be one of the best things to happen in the sport in years. Would be plenty of Lulz on that Finebaum show for sure.
