Could go for some tacos, and a nap
There’s a thing in Texas High School Girls Soccer that your chances of going to State depend on how close the school is to a Whole Foods. And it’s true, at least in 5A/6A
One of the things that personally drives me crazy in the U.S. is how youth sports/athletic activities went from a part of the public good (municipal leagues and fields! rec centers! public parks!) to a privatized, expensive, highly competitive, highly structured pursuit for wealthy kids’ résumés
NBC ran a piece where Mary Carrillo went to Norway to find out why they're so good at the Winter Olympics and i was yelling BECAUSE IT'S COLD THERE

then she went to a little tiny ski jump for kids and was like "it's free, equipment is provided, & they don't emphasize results"

and i was like.
oh!

Reach across the aisle while wearing brass knuckles
Someone doused Renee Good’s Minneapolis memorial and a nearby pile of wood with gasoline and started a fire at about 9 p.m. Tuesday.
Renee Good memorial site in south Minneapolis doused in gasoline
Damage was minimal but police are investigating.

Can’t wait for Marco Rubio to give a press conference tomorrow announcing that he has personally ordered the deaths of a number of people with the Ash Wednesday smear on his forehead

Someone tell Ian The Twat that it’s “too”
AI filmmaking is completely unserious.

You've got people with $30k begging the internet for ideas by next week because they have nothing of their own to say, it's just slop for the sake of slop. Embarrassing state of affairs.

I think about "a feed of jitter dogs" at least twice a day
Heres a simple trick even an idiot can do

Make a pot of coffee, boil up a bunch of hot dogs in there. You got yourself a feed of jitter dogs. Simple

It won’t be long before the people who said “We were scared of Chris Rufo and JD Vance” will be shouted out of society
Devastated to learn that Univ of Texas at Austin is closing the American Studies dept. The years I spent there earning my PhD were formative, making me the teacher, thinker, and writer I am today. I've passed on what I learned at UT to thousands of students over the past 20 years. Just awful.

One of my best jokes on the other site was “Wuhan! Got you all in check” when COVID first dropped
“Woo-Hah!! Got You All In Check,” the highly entertaining debut solo single from Leaders Of The New School’s Busta Rhymes, was released 30 years ago today. Written and produced with Rashad Smith, it went on to top Billboard’s Hot Rap Singles chart for seven weeks.

Who can forget the Biblical parable of the Good Samaritan, who got disappeared by the secret police after helping the injured traveler
CCTV footage appears to show DHS agents posing as people having car trouble in order to lure a target out of his house before arresting them. The target comes out and starts helping them before 3 vehicles surround the scene. The car "experiencing" trouble then drives off with them.

Well of course the Scandinavians dominate cross-country skiing, that’s how they get around.

If there was a “Drive Your SUV Into A Crowd of Protestors While Holding a Big Mac And Refreshing Facebook” event the USA would dominate, too
