Just pulled from the water bath a porterhouse off of a Limousin. I have consumed an omelette, toast, and who bowls of cereal today to accommodate this into my diet.

every single week they're throwing this guy a special oval office love-in that appears to be the presidential equivalent of letting your dog scarf an entire big mac and fries before that last trip to the vet
Pirro: "Mr President, there is in this room a group of people who love you, who believe in you, and who are so proud to be in this Oval Office and to be part of this amazing day because you have changed the course of America."

People on here have like five betes noires and I get that this is a lot to keep track of but this isn’t really an excuse to mash them all together for simplicity of accounting, especially when the result just makes you look like *Pepe Silvia meme* except for “politics stuff that you find upsetting”

As part of the Giants' statement firing Brian Daboll, John Mara and Steve Tisch say, "Joe Schoen remains in his position as general manager and will lead the search for a new head coach."

Absolutely hilarious rep from Darnell Wright who spikes Brian Burns into the turf mid-spin move, pauses, starts helping him up, then realizes that Caleb Williams is still running around five seconds into the play, and starts blocking him again before CW launches a missile to Loveland downfield

I personally am very charmed by “Star Wars is absurd as hell (laudatory)“ existing on the full spectrum of ways it is possible to be ridiculous
Fun fact: 0.25% of the profits from Phantom Menace were used to purchase surplus ex-East German mortar munitions for the LTTE.

One problem of following news out on the skyway is that whenever people are super mad there always seems to be a noisy “Biden could have ended this all with a phone call” adjunct that’s facially untrue which in turn makes it much harder to parse exactly how directionally correct the anger is
