I totally slept on this UMBC team. Last year was so bad I completely tuned out. I apologize for my lack of faith

I’m really not used to seeing UMBC with a “comfortable” lead over Vermont

lol any way 💅

a woman in a purple sweater says they are the same picture ALT: a woman in a purple sweater says they are the same picture

They're the same picture but in different seasons, from different angles?

If you cannot safely walk from your house to a nearby social meeting place you are not a member of society by meaningful definition. Unfortunately we redesigned our entire country to make society illegal

Never Trump Republicans, or, more accurately, Never Hired by Trump Republicans.

It seems like every few months the sports gods queue up another opportunity for Canada to kick the US in the teeth, and eventually they have to pull it off, right?

Comics are a quantity over quality medium, but that’s what’s great about it, everything is thrown against the wall to see what sticks. The character Spider-man wasn’t designed to be Marvel’s great creation, it was the sixteenth thing Marvel tried to keep an anthology series running.

It would be more realistic to build oil pipelines to the other side of the straight. If they start now they could have them online in four years

Some people thought Rambo: First Blood Part 2 was a documentary

bluesky is an echo chamber you guys should really be reading stuff like Why Genocide Is Good Magazine

We should probably prepare for the Straight to be closed for up to a year *after* the war officially ends.

This is Nathan Cavanaugh, another DOGE staffer explaining how he flagged grants at NEH for "DEI" which would be reviewed for termination. 404 Media has reviewed hours of this footage and we'll have more soon.

Part of a lawsuit by @acls1919.bsky.social, @modernlanguage.bsky.social + @historians.org

The billionaire suggesting they just truck the oil through the desert instead of going through the Strait reminds me of the BP oil spill back in the day when they suggested shooting golf balls into the hole to plug the leak. It's like, granted, you ARE thinking, but just stop.

And what’s their legacy? The robber barons were awful but they created institutions that helped revive cities a century later. These guys are just spending their money on yachts and rocket ships

WBAL in Baltimore helping viewers understand the difference between watches and warnings

It’s very possible all the plans simply came to the conclusion that it would be fatally stupid to go to war with Iran so don’t do it

Important to note Liz Landers is with PBS, its not like CNN or CBS grew a spine recently

Pretty crazy how important the blockade of a trade route is right now

This shoe thing is maybe the best example of Trump being an avatar of pure malice. These are his allies. The guys carrying out his agenda, willingly and gladly. And still he’s got to humiliate them. Why? Because it’s just what he wants to do to *everybody*.

Basketball must be rough on the knees, but it does seem like one of the healthiest sports. Very few players die young, they all seem lucid decades after their careers

NEWS: The Trump administration confirmed it bombed a girl’s school in Iran.

It's one of the most devastating military errors in decades.

Trump lied about it. Pete Hegseth gutted the office preventing civilian casualties.

175 are dead. Most were kids. Hegseth should be fired.

Difficult to emphasize just how much a generation of kids has been taught that being dishonest, superficial, and narcissistic is the pathway to attention and therefore success

The first rule of Alpha Club is…hahaha, there are no alphas. It’s all dumb.

I was in a 2 hour briefing today on the Iran War. All the briefings are closed, because Trump can't defend this war in public.

I obviously can't disclose classified info, but you deserve to know how incoherent and incomplete these war plans are.

1/ Here's what I can share:

I hadn't kept up with UMBC men's basketball this year, but they're the #1 seed going into the postseason?

It’s just so obviously bot or a coordinated disinformation campaign. It’s only certain candidates that get this boost from these actors, and Sanders is one of them

Why doesn’t Witkoff just marry Russia if he loves it so much?
