Stop making believe we don't know how this will end.

On some random day a week or a month from now, Trump will announce on Truth.social that we've won, there's no need for any more bombing and $4/gallon gas is cheaper than it was under Biden.

Then he'll go on Fox and claim he ended his 10th war.

Some Mafia type or other to Azerbaijan: Nice airspace you have there. It would be ashamed if something happened to it.

"Good guys win in the end, not because they’re good, but because they’re willing to be accountable in ways that the bad guys are not. " -- Lacy Baugher (@lacymb.bsky.social), review of season finale of Starfleet Academy.

If only someone, anyone, in the Trump Administration understood that.

Bam Adebayo also had three assists in his 83-point game.

Just sayin' ...

In other words, this war is turning into a real life version of Star Trek DS9. Some Iranian guy named Rom has invented self-replicating mines and Gul Dukat (Trump), Damar (Hegseth) and Weyoun (Rubio) are stymied ...

Trump only has one thing left in his aging and predictable bag of tricks: Suing Iran for a fraudulent election and claiming that he would have been elected the new Ayatollah if not for mail-in ballots used by the Council of Elders.

At a Waffle House in Tupelo, Mississippi, three Elvis impersonators and a Joe Rogan listener told us they feared that the New York Times Pitchbot erred when he suggested salted caramel lattes were fundamental to Burkean Democracy.

But it all worked out. After some intense workouts with Charles Atlas, he became Duffman ...

Knicks win by 39 on the road against Nuggets, playing the second game of a back-to-back.

Thunder on Wednesday won on the road by 3 against Knicks, playing the second game of a back-to-back.

Back-to-backs warp the game. NBA shouldn't schedule them. The NBA players association should fight them.

Donald Trump is the Chancellor Gowron of Gul Dukats ...

Trump/Hegseth/Rubio have floated more rationales for our attack on Iran than commercial flights have operated since Saturday ...

They have to start on their version of Hitler Youth somewhere ....

Does this involve a hand-held VCR camera, someone's wood-paneled basement, an old Castro convertible and bad lighting? Cause, you know ...

Been there. Done that. Never shared, though ... Thankfully, my wife prefers the shortbread.

Lufthansa Express Rail (using DB, of course) has connected Cologne and Bonn to Frankfurt Airport since at least the early 1980s. Given the limited flight connections at BRU and DB's dreadful operational issues, not sure I see a benefit here.

Donald Trump is the Spirit Airlines of presidents.

--OR--

Spirit Airlines is the Donald Trump of airlines.

You choose. Either way, there are lots of bankruptcies, bad faith, bad taste and general yellow incompetence...

If you piled up all the snow that New York, Boston and Buffalo got in 1978, it actually did reach the moon ...

When they acquire some eye of newt, they can make their own Elon ...

Sorry, I only care about the French national anthem when Victor Lazo is fronting the band!

By the way, in case you've never been: Verona IS that beautiful. It's the most sophisticated small city in Italy. The Arena is spectacular, the streets are made of marble and, honest, everyone seems to wear Armani all the time ...

The thing I'm proudest of in life is that I do not own a shovel ...

Alternate take: Hockey is silly and Celtics-Lakers is as existentially meaningless as yesterday's Rockets-Knicks game. Relax and soak in the glory of Verona, site of the Olympics Closing Ceremonies. Much better option.

So the burning question now: Who got to Security Barbie Kristi Noem and told her not to shut down PreCheck? Toy Boy Corey? Suzie Wiles? TSA Secretary Sean I'm-not-that-stupid Duffy? I got calls out ...

"Never surrender. Keep hope alive!"

Trump as Kaiser Wilhelm. Interesting ...

This is all a fix, right? Now Tom Brady comes trotting on the field to lead a Patriots comeback, then flies to Cortina to heal Lindsey Vonn...

Name the products ... :)

Look, Dunkin' coffee is still pretty good, especially compared to Starbucks. But their donuts are awful now. No longer made on-site. They're worse than the commercial, actually.

Bad Bunny show looked and sounded great. Didn't understand it, wished there were English subtitles.
