We are barely beginning the process and you’re already going “just compromise already.” What if, and here’s a wild idea, we don’t have to yet? Because we have a whole menu of options right now and a year and a half for massive shifts in political perception?

‪“I think this guy is a bad choice.”‬
‪“So you want four more years under the GOP?”‬
‪MOTHERFUCKER THE ELECTION PROCESS HASN’T EVEN STARTED, THERE ARE WAY MORE OPTIONS THAN THOSE?!‬

People keep getting mad when leftists say they don’t like Newsom as a candidate and it’s like…it’s 2 and a half years before an election? Shouldn’t this be where we draw hard lines to figure out who moves people at large? There isn’t even a field, there is no election yet to lose.
February 12, 2026 at 6:39 AM
Yeah that would make sense. I feel like they may wait a year to not do them back to back though.

Billie has the catalog but I do wonder if she’d do such a showy choreographed event, she seems to mostly reject the idea of it. She has the hits but I don’t think she’s ever done like…a set piece.
February 12, 2026 at 4:47 AM
Ariana could do it but also I think that’s down to when she moves onto her next era, she’s still kind of in Wicked mode. They are not giving it to Kanye (don’t even try). Britney would be an incredible story but that’s up to her, she has every right to say no with her trauma.

I’m sure they’ve asked Taylor Swift at some point, it only makes sense, so I’m assuming she’s a decided no. Drake is ABSOLUTELY not doing it after last year. Sabrina Carpenter is too early with only two albums. I don’t think Ed Sheeran or Billie Eilish want to be that flashy…
February 12, 2026 at 4:42 AM
Been trying to think of possible next halftime hosts, who is on that top artist level, with multiple albums of hits spanning several years, someone with a legacy…and also who hasn’t done it and is willing to do it still.

There’s a few that make sense…Bieber, Harry Styles…please not Morgan Wallen.

Though I probably would’ve picked the three nominated rap albums for the Grammy for album of the year over it, but that speaks to how good Let God Sort ‘Em Out, Chromakopia, and GNX are. Hell Sabrina’s isn’t far behind Bad Bunny either, some good choices this year.
February 12, 2026 at 12:46 AM
My favorites? DtMF, BAILE INoLVIDABLE, BOKeTE, CAFé CON RON, PIToRRO DE COCO, LO QUE LE PASÓ A HAWAii, LA MuDANZA, and EoO (that beat goes OFF)

Yes I’m aware that’s half the tracklist, it’s a great album.
February 12, 2026 at 12:41 AM
If anyone’s curious, the songs I was less into were PERFuMITO NUEVO, VeLDÁ, KETU TeCRÉ (felt very Drake to me, it’s the only heartbreak song where he blames the woman exclusively), and KLOuFRENS (I can’t take yelling over Instagram close friends status seriously, I’m sorry)
February 12, 2026 at 12:34 AM
After the halftime show, I’m listening to the new Bad Bunny album with translations and it’s REALLY good.

If a bit long, you could cut like 4 songs in particular, but the great songs are transcendent.

Have all your laughs, but they’re doing this to the baby youtuber tomorrow, I hope you’re all proud

‪Like regardless of what happened, you can’t tell me that doesn’t hugely disqualify a documentary from being taken seriously, right?‬

Kurt Cobain: *has recording of himself describing a suicide attempt no one else knew about, literally writes a song titled “I Hate Myself and I Want to Die”*

Guy who lived in his town and didn’t know him that well: he wasn’t depressed at all, he’d never kill himself
February 11, 2026 at 3:47 PM
Back in 2015 I saw two Cobain documentaries, one was Montage of Heck which featured a recording of Kurt describing a suicide attempt.

And another was about the Courtney conspiracy and it interviewed a guy who grew up in the same town and went “eh he didn’t seem depressed to me.”

They're calling HRT a "sex-rejecting procedure" now. I guess that means my wife gives me HRT every night!

‪Oh shit I forgot JJ McCarthy was that draft too.‬

‪BUT ALSO HE JUST TURNED 23 AND HASNT HAD A COMPLETE INJURY FREE STARTING SEASON, SO LIKE PENIX I STILL THINK ITS TOO EARLY‬

“But Drake Maye looked bad in the Super Bowl”

HE MADE A SUPER BOWL BEFORE HE WAS 24. CALEB JUST HAD THE MOST PASSING YARDS IN BEARS HISTORY AT 24. JAYDEN DANIELS MADE IT TO THE NFC CHAMPIONSHIP HIS ROOKIE YEAR. BO NIX BEAT JOSH ALLEN IN THE PLAYOFFS HIS SECOND YEAR.
February 9, 2026 at 11:02 PM
I mean in what world is Jayden Daniels and Drake Maye receiving MVP votes before 25 or Caleb having one of the best QB seasons in Bears history or Bo Nix never missing the playoffs NOT overachieving the average. Trevor Lawrence is barely playing like that 5 seasons in.
February 9, 2026 at 11:02 PM
I think it’s too early to predict the career arcs of any of the 2024 QB first round class. 4 out of the 5 have majorly turned their teams around and made the playoff, all of those playoff QBs got at least one win, and the only one not there hasn’t had a full starting season.
February 9, 2026 at 11:02 PM
Good game, Mia! I’m sad my team lost, but the fact Drake is only 23 and was clearly nervous…I still have hope for the future and pride in how much they overperformed expectations.

And Seattle earned that win, that defense was terrifying and I hope you really enjoy it! :)
February 9, 2026 at 4:10 AM
Oh no it’s alright! Totally fine!
February 9, 2026 at 4:02 AM
Honestly I’m being positive right now because I hate trash talk. I don’t want shit in these moments, so I don’t talk shit. So instead I’ll be positive that the Patriots overperformed my expectations and have a chance to get back there, and wish Seattle fans a fun celebration!
