I tried to stand up and fly straight, but it wasn't easy with that sumbitch Reagan in the White House.

Just had a Super Bowl halftime where the singer:
1) boasts about the poor place he’s from;
2) boosts the value of agriculture;
3) celebrates small town life;
4) highlights the joy of inter-generational celebrations; and
5) promotes marriage.

And tomorrow, the MAGA movement will attack it.

In the past, Super Bowl commercials were snapshots of the cultural moment. The past few years they've felt like projections of a future elites want to force us into against our will.

Hurry it up, jackass! We're finally outside.

I didn't ride very far this afternoon but I rode "not very far" outside and that feels like a win in 2026.

41 days to MidSouth Gravel. I'm tired of riding inside and would really appreciate if Mother Nature would start to cooperate.

Went to the Rainy Day Books Chuck Klosterman event. It was entertaining but zero discussion on Guns N' Roses or Cinderella was pretty disappointing.

BREAKING Greg Bovino has been removed as Border Patrol "commander at large" and will return to El Centro Calif, where he is expected to retire soon. A stunning turnaround after Pretti killing. Bovino's traveling blue city crackdown is over www.theatlantic.com/politics/202...

President Donald Trump will not be attending Super Bowl LX on Feb. 8 in Santa Clara, Calif., he said in an interview with the New York Post.

“It’s just too far away,” he said.

I showed Luna some reels of dogs playing in the snow and refusing to come out of the cold and she thinks those dogs are morons.

Gonna be hard to move the ball down field via two hand chest pass.

I saw the post from Pretti's local bike shop and decided to support them by buying some merch. It appears many in the cycling community had the same idea.

This is not what "we're supposed to do."

You don't need a concealed carry permit in Texas. Texans do not have to show our IDs to police unless we are lawfully detained (reasonable suspicion) or arrested (probable cause).

This guy would rather sacrifice his own rights than break the party line.
Chip Roy: "As someone who carries a weapon in TX, if I'm in front of law enforcement or if I get stopped, I tell them that. I tell them that I've got a concealed carry permit. I show them my ID. I tell them where the weapon is bc that's what we're supposed to do. That's not what I think I saw here"

They came after Nazi guards until those bastards were 100 years old, and we should do the same to these guys. Not a moment's peace in their brain until the day they die. They should live in constant, everlasting fear of arrest, trial, and prison time (and possible execution).
Trials for every ICE member.

I just took the dog out and it's upsetting that it is currently the warmest it'll be over the next 96 hours.

Again, they're assigned readings for a reason.
Matt Taibbi criticizes the ICE protests in Minneapolis, and says Martin Luther King Jr. would not have approved of them.

Taibbi claims MLK would not support "guilt because of racial identity" or "bringing religion into it".

One thing most people don't understand is that we in the US enjoy greater wealth funded by other countries because they assume we are a stable and relatively friendly hegemon.
