  1. Start cultivating a love of the semi-colon and shorten sentences; AI prefers em-dashes and piling up clauses between commas.
  2. The coaches from Grant Union are completely out of line. Can’t expect a high school team to play in control when the leaders are behaving that way.
  3. Yep. They’ve got five of Maryland’s top 15 recruits this year including two five stars and are ranked like 5 nationally. They have multiple other FBS commitments on the roster, too. Basically an IMG type operation except there is a real Catholic school attached to it.
  4. On the topic of the deadly Yakuza, wow. They seem to have really fallen off.
  5. The whole enterprise got shut down because it was basically a Yakuza front.
  6. West Broward got rocked by a Provo, UT team.
  7. Think tank shit and some civil service or Schedule C jobs with State, and a DASDE for strategy in Trump I.
  8. Bridge Colby doing Bridge Colby things. He set up a long-range strike review in the Pentagon for anything involving U.S. weapons or intelligence including using European stuff.
  9. Garbage statement with complete lack of accountability. “Well first of all he hit my son first, second my son was told he could get him back, third they never should have allowed my son to the event, fourth my son was concussed.”
  10. Even if the suplex and initial jumping in ring was a stunt, it’s a brutal assault. He landed 22 haymakers on an unconscious person. Not an opponent because pro wrestling isn’t real and the other guy didn’t know he was in a real fight. Raja being an MMA fighter makes it worse because he (should) be aware of what he’s doing and that he’s not in the octagon with an MMA ref. MMA stays in MMA. Dude needs to be in jail for a long time.
  11. Its the DSA that would be very comfortable on this one:
  12. Super serious non-tankie stuff from the beloved DSA a few days after Russia tried to seize Kyiv.
  13. I don’t think Nike has been doing Tennessee particularly well. Their basic look is fine and won’t change much. Nike is responsible for some really bad Halloween candy wrappers. This is really bad.
  14. Dogshit. I’m completely over black and grey alternate uniforms. Baylor’s green on top of gold is a great look. UNM shows how to do an alternate with a great color that has resonance with the state. Also love the Zia, which should just be the logo. It reminds me of the last time the NFL Cardinals had a good set, and they worked the AŽ flag in on the sleeve.
  15. December 21 was not 22. Deterrence failed because we didn’t try it. Anyway, more Ukrainians would have been alive. It is hilarious that the worst case you can come up with here is a Trump victory with a platformed Tulsi Gabbard. Imagine if that had happened.
  16. The Dems anyway, he got massive protests anyway. So not really a big difference; although there wouldn’t have been a further invasion and people would have forgotten it anyway. But yes, tankies like you would have protested.
  17. Hard disagree. He was too cautious on everything but messaging; following the Obama playbook. And always had the politics front of mind. Bold leadership would have been a company on a training mission near Kyiv and declaring an air policing coalition of willing flying out of Germany and Poland in December 21. That would have flipped Putin’s card table over and make him think of another game.
  18. This was a horrible rebrand. The previous branding and specially logo were perfect: Widget and blob rebranding is nearly always awful. For plane livery changes, it’s hard to beat Aer Lingus’ move to Euro-white as an all-time downgrade. Bring back colors to airports!
  19. Defeating the Woke Marxists by state ownership of industry.
  20. Also of note: Dobson graduated from San Benito High School. Was apparently a good tennis player. Luckily Freddy Fender and Bobby Morrow cancel out Dobson’s suck. They can’t overcome the suck of the Greyhounds though.
  21. Was coming here to post this. I think that the key here is that this needs to be taken as messaging guidance for politicians. I do have to say that I don’t hear many of these (I do hear some) from national level reps. I do hear most from local officials and the NGO sectors. But by far this is vocabulary most used by online people who aren’t anything except online. List below. The categories are theirs and not mine. Therapy speak: Seminar Language: Organizer Jargon: Gender/Orientation Correctness: Shifting language on race: Explaining away crime:
  22. Nope. Irregular entry is a misdemeanor or felony depending on circumstances. Overstay or unauthorized work, etc. is not a criminal offense. But there is a flip side to the coin: removal, visa revocation, denial of status is not a judicial punishment and the level of due process and burden of proof is much lower. When review is needed, you go before a special administrative judge and not to criminal court. My own stance is pretty simple: removal to a prison in a third country is clearly extrajudicial punishment and prohibited. The CECOT shit is outrageous. Expedited removals, visa revocations, toughening asylum criteria and similar tactics are not punishment and it’s squarely within the remit of the executive to do it. The level and approach to enforcement is a question for voters and Congress to address if they choose. Conditions at detention centers while waiting for removal are a clear human rights and likely 8th Amendment issue.
  23. I knew a family that used his techniques. He suggested to name a stick or belt something like the “rod of discipline” and leave it on the kid’s dresser as a “sign of authority.” Really whack shit. The kid I knew turned out all kinds of fucked up. And my dad spanked, but that kid was getting whacked for all kinds of petty shit. They’d tell him to go get the “rod of discipline” or “belt of correction” and go to town. FWIW shortly before I had my first kid, my dad said “I won’t tell you how to parent but I don’t think spanking helped you and I did it because everyone told me I needed to. I wish I hadn’t.”
  24. Tucker’s most recent guest is a chemistry professor who thinks we should have sided with Hitler in World War II and I can say that this is the trajectory we all expected.
