Mike Conley said he hoped Nickeil Alexander-Walker could "take a breath" after tonight and realize how far he has come in the arc of his career, especially from some darker days in Utah. I asked NAW if he was able to do that. Here's his response:

Blind squirrel, nut, etc., but this is a damn good statement from Ken Martin. Well done.

Tim Walz calling Elon a dipshit was the high point of the 2024 presidential campaign, and the Democratic Party immediately told him to cut that shit out. Burn the party down.

LPT: get organic eggs

At least at the stores we shop at, organic eggs are either the same price or even cheaper than the crappy bleached factory farm eggs right now, and they taste way better IMO

I understand it's not viable for a lot of folks when the white ones are $3 cheaper in normal times tho

Is there anyone who has T-Mobile who would let me use their Little Caesar's offer from T-Mobile Tuesdays for this week?

I won our D.A.R.E. writing contest in fifth grade and read my speech in front of the school. By high school, I was doing research papers on how poorly the D.A.R.E. program is run and its lack of effectiveness (and even counterproductivity in many cases).
We’ve known for 30 years that this is a waste of money that prevents Americans from being safe

Metal as fuck. Thank you, Chris! You're a beautifully unique sparklepony.
If you want video, Team Protect HB on Instagram has it. I’m unsure if this link will work.

(TW: plane crash)

Was the landing gear not locked into place, or was it just overwhelmed and collapsed because basically the whole weight of the plane appeared to touch down on the back right wheels first? Man that's fucking terrifying.
I wasn't on duty yesterday when this happened, but watching our emergency response systems light up and coordinate minutes after this happened was amazing to see. Patients were taken across the city and seen and treated within minutes of arrival. No deaths, thankfully. Bravo!

They're just speed-running it with almost zero opposition.
History buffs will know that every authoritarian leader eventually converges on some version of: "I *am* the state. I can not break the law, I am the law, the law is instantiated in me."

Our march to authoritarianism so far has been excruciatingly by-the-book. Hitting every beat. No surprises.

Strong rumor with credible sourcing: DOJ has put all of public integrity line attorneys in a room and told them they have an hour for someone to choose who will sign motion to dismiss and if nobody does, they will all be fired. The nastiest strong-arming in DOJ history by a long shot.
