Ordered a Lyft and asked for extra roomy as I’m fluffy.

The car was a Toyota Camry.

And, of course, no way to reach out to Lyft and ask what the fuck.

Yes, first world problems. But still annoying

What the hell happened to Jared Moskovitz?

I mean, is @jasmineforus.bsky.social the only elected official left in Congress who won’t surrender in advance?

Miller's announcement that Trump will use his "absolute authority" (whatever that means) is an anticipatory declaration of dictatorship.
Take it seriously folks.
"Everything in the world is gonna change on January 20" -- Tim Miller on his pod today flagged this clip of Stephen Miller outlining Trump's hardline immigration policies, including using the military for deportations. It's a sobering watch.

ASU looks one hell of a lot better against Iowa State than Boise did at home against a far less impressive UNLV team.

Tell me I’m wrong.

The thing I can’t get over is how by just about any measure you can find, life in the US is better than the recent past and dramatically better than the distant past, and yet it’s taken as a given that we live in a dystopia. We simply do not, except for how we keep electing dystopian leaders

There's a fundamental arrogance in assuming that everything will always be ok in America.

"We're better than that" is a blindfold -- self-imposed.

He lost three games.
His team isn’t going to its conference championship.

He’s not even the best choice in his own conference.

GTFOOH with this garbage.

The Bush pardons of Iron-Contra figures, after Bush lost the 1992 election? You never hear about that.

Bush letting Scooter Libby off, then Trump giving Libby a full pardon? Nobody gives a shit.

Washington loves to predict the Judgment of History and it's TERRIBLE at it.

Zero percent chance Colorado should be mentioned at all for the CFP ahead of the loser of this week’s Big XII Championship game.

If there’s a second Big XII berth, it belongs to the team who loses Saturday, not a three-win team sitting on their asses because they didn’t make the game.

Saying ASU was picked last in the Big XII doesn’t give the full story of how remarkable the Sun Devils’ story is …

Political commentators are broken at this point. Sure, let’s forget everything we have seen - a cult leader who has convinced imbeciles that up is down won the election, but let’s talk about policy like it’s going to matter.

In Tucson for ASU-UA. A couple walks up the stands (sadly in ASU colors) with matching Trump 2024 necklaces.

Seriously, how fucked up are these people? How deeply broken they must be that their only identity comes from Trump.

It would be sad if the morons weren’t in charge.

A fine day for an ass whipping.

From picked for last in the Big XII to being a win away from a potential CFP bye and a home quarterfinal.
