How You Can Count on Me Let Mark Ruffalo Be His Combustible Best

The scale of the B-36 is hard to measure when the aircraft is on its own. So here is a pic of a B-18 Bolo (at the back), a B-17 (in the front), a B-29 (on the left), and the B-36, dominating the space.

The same motherfuckers who wailed about Kaepernick kneeling during anthems because it "brought politics into the sport" are almost certainly doing victory laps when the President of the United fucking States is in the commentary booth cause that ain't political, obviously!

5️⃣ JD Vance's half-brother, Cory Bowman, was crushed in his challenge Cincinnati's Democratic mayor Aftab Pureval.

His loss was unsurprising in this blue-leaning city.

But he lost 78% to 22%: That's the biggest margin in a mayoral race in Cincy since it started electing mayors directly in 2001.
