I post about politics, hockey, baseball, football and things that are funny to me. Okay, sometimes other things, too.
Seeing news reports that one of the Air Force Thunderbirds crashed during training. The pilot ejected and was rescued. Not sure of the pilot's condition at this time. x.com/MarioNawfal/...

Kelly: He runs around on stage talking about lethality and the warrior ethos.. That’s not the message that should be coming from the Secretary of Defense… He runs around on a stage like he’s a 12 year old playing army. It’s embarrassing.

That young woman who was a member of the National Guard is dead because of Trump. FULL STOP!
I base this on the same principle that Republicans did to blame Biden for what happened in Afghanistan and Hillary Clinton for the deaths in Benghazi.

I think you make a good point about RO/Andor, but I fundamentally disagree that "a movie should be judged in a vacuum of its own merits" when ... why would I watch the third episode of anything unless it's doing a good job courting the plot points of the first two?

I always hated this choice of music. It just didn't seem to fit - yeah, I get "Magic Carpet Ride" but the vibe of the song just didn't work for me.

While I am angry at the few Dems that caved on the shutdown, I do feel that the issues that they were, overall, highlighting (ACA, SNAP, High Cost of Living) were clearly identified as problems the Repubs fully own. This could be a net positive, longterm. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/11/u...
