  1. When Kamala, who is running for president, heard Dick Cheney had endorsed her, she should have responded just like a TV comedian. She should have said “fuck him and his bloodstained endorsement, I don’t need it. And fuck anyone who might think of voting for me based on it, I don’t want your filthy and stupid votes.” Then she should have looked at the camera and explained that she is exactly the same type of progressive that MC Fresh Breath is.
  2. Yeah, this stuff happens when someone moves beyond parody.
  3. LOL, 90 percent of Maria Zakharova’s schtick is whining about sanctions, nuclear fear-mongering, and accusing the U.S of trying to destroy Russia and those are the lines this guy pulls to prove this lady isn’t spewing Red Square agitprop. Is this a bit? I am kind of concerned about his position on Venezuela.
  4. Syria was a crucible for their kinetic tactics and information tactics. Same playbook, a lot of chuds believed that Assad was defending Christians and they held a classical concert in Palmyra to show how they were spreading great culture. The leftists got people like Caitlin Johnstone. The right is far more useful for them in the U.S. but it’s a global machine and leftism is useful elsewhere.
  5. Off-topic but every time I see a clip of Indiana at home I think there’s something off with the color settings of the video. That gray court is turrble.
  6. Garlic herb crusted leg of lamb on the grill, Greek salet, tzatziki. And some stuffed jalapeños because they are so awesome.
  7. If FBI counterintelligence or JTTF has questions about your mysterious foreign financier it is not the most excellent idea to refuse to talk and cite a NDA.
  8. I really hope your little girl recovers soon. It will be interesting to see what breed the family told their insurer they had as nearly all refuse to cover pits and similar dogs.
  9. I hate to see anyone have an injury. This quote made me LOL. She was drafted number 7! Some people desperately need to believe in a hostile universe.
  10. Babylon Bee guy continues to weigh in on Tucker and his Nazi guest.
  11. Did you call the police and local animal control yet? Important to do so even if they don’t remove the animal, and get an official report in and the owners with a record.
  12. My wife has a fairly rigid work schedule and she told me that for the fall semester, after school ballet started earlier one day of the week. She asked if I could switch up my work from home schedule since she wouldn’t be able to meet the bus and get to the studio from work, and of course I said yes. When I asked her whether I needed to move to Mondays or Thursdays she huffily told me to look at the shared family Google calendar because she couldn’t keep it all memorized. I did, and negotiated a Monday home day (the team requires in-office coverage all days). Tonight she starts looking at the paper schedule and PANIK: data entry error, Thursday is the real early start date and class starts this week. Now I have to try and renegotiate this shit with colleagues and bosses, and she is big mad at me for failing to cross-reference her calendar with the paper schedule (which was inside her purse, although she says she’d have given it to me if I asked about it).
  13. Well, look here. A huge 52-10 win over McNeese State which was clearly the best 8th place Southland team last year. And Notre Dame goes down to Northern Illinois, clearly showing how much we softened them up last week so that loss doesn’t look so bad now. Revising my prediction to one loss and a CFP championship.
  14. One under-appreciated aspect of all this is the bomb that went off in the conservative grifter community, which is famously known for solidarity and good will, not paranoia and backbiting. Every single one of these tools is frenetically trying to figure out who is working with either the Russians or the feds while feverishly paying lawyers to comb through their affairs. Every single sponsor is paying someone a retainer. I wonder how many “retroactive FARA registration?” searches have been registered. Truly a shame what this may do to a tight-knit community.
  15. Travis Kelce is a future NFL Hall of Fame football player with multiple Super Bowl rings and his girlfriend can raise a developed nation’s GDP by a percentage point by choosing to hold a concert there. Tim Pool has a beanie and a 9th grade education. So they are in the same ballpark when it comes to podcasting.
  16. Clark is so ridiculously good and fun to watch. She plays a relentless, pressing, athletic game with unreal floor presence and the ability to make shots from anywhere. Swoopes and the others are upset that she has done what they didn’t— make the WNBA into a nationally relevant phenom and not a niche interest. Swoopes was great at the game but Clark is reinventing it. On a human level that feeling is understandable but it’s best not to show it so publicly.
  17. Technically the distant ancestors of everyone who will ever exist have already been born.
  18. This is in jest but the fact is that Russian security services are in a bad place. They are run by vicious mediocrities with few institutional checks and balances answerable to a tyrant who no longer cares about his image. Britney Griner is a good example, she was in Russia because the Russian state wanted high-profile athletic talent to play there. They had no compunction about tossing her in Russian prison in a bid to retrieve an arms dealer. The long term is not part of their game now and potential collaborators should think about how they might treat someone nobody cares about when the world isn’t watching. Federal prison is actually one of the more optimal outcomes to getting in bed with them.
  19. In the past, idiots who independently invented check kiting could only tell their big brain schemes to their immediate social circle.
  20. My “I am not a Kremlin asset” t-shirt is raising a lot of questions that have already been answered by the shirt.”
  21. “Nothing in this think piece which says that Ukrainians are victims of proxy wars and that sanctions against Russia are victimizing innocent people could be considered Russian propaganda. Also, progressive shouldn’t vote for Harris because there is no real difference between her and Trump.” That’s the good stuff, the real galaxy brained stuff.
  22. I’m sorry your preferred political commentator is on the payroll of Kremlin controlled media. Tim Pool fans might have some coping strategies to compare.
  23. It’s so cool to post Kremlin propaganda, but Progressively.
  24. There is a cadre of guys (mostly guys)— mostly old cold warriors and anti-Soviet Russian emigres— who dedicated their life to fighting the Reds and then became emotionally unable to accept what Russia turned into under Putin. They became extremely valuable for the Putin regime and they played the long game. Back in the early to mid-2000s, Russia went on a charm offensive to woo these communities. Putin arranged paid trips to Russia for former dissidents and the children/grandchildren of the White exile communities and engaged in a push to get them passports. They lured the Russian Church Abroad back into union with Moscow and embarked on a campaign to install friendly bishops and clergy and ostracize intransigent old anti-Communists who objected that Patriarchs Alexei and Kirill were former KGB agents and not to be trusted. They wined and dined former foreign policy mandarins and had them meet “former enemies who were now friends” at think tank events and paid them to help build a “new relationship.” In retrospect it’s all completely obvious but it’s very hard to admit that you’ve allowed yourself to get played. And eventually you double down and believe that these people really are your friends. The PRC is currently using very similar tactics against Chinese diaspora as well as the huge group of “China hands” especially in the business community who were proud of the work to build things and open doors in the 1990s and 2000s and who are loathe to admit that Xi’s China is not “peacefully rising” and that it views the U.S. as an enemy. The story of that Albany staffer is amazing, she was openly posting from PRC official receptions! There are a handful of countries— Russia, China, Iran, and increasingly Turkey and Hungary— where any sort of engagement with their officials should be viewed as most likely compromise unless there’s a clear and easily explainable reason for it. If you’re in the orbit by choice, thats a bad sign.
