I'll admit it: I was genuinely a guy who, when murphy vs ncaa was decided, thought sports betting legalization would be basically fine and not cause any major problems and I was wrong about it.
Coppins apparently feeling emasculated by Nate Silver for his poor betting choices.

We got butt wearables now?
Seriously I am losing my mind about how popular this dumb post/thread is.
I really did think the Riyadh Comedy Festival would help bring peace to the Middle East
Anti white racism as a white person feels a little cringe these days but anti semitism still has that little frisson of naughtiness that makes it fun!
Ross Douthat @DouthatNYT · 12h Lesser of two evils, art of the possible, blah blah blah, but all of the factions that have strong agency in our society right now seem profoundly dangerous. I don't know which one is the most dangerous but none of them should be trusted with power. Ross Douthat @DouthatNYT · 10h Fundamental factional energy -- Silicon Valley: Faust bargaining with the devil RW populism: mob boss in a tinfoil hat The Cathedral: Voluntary human extinction
Ahhh yes still the lesser of two evils for this moron
Multiple “war fighters” too
Where are you on Warnock?
Yes we absolutely can
the only place this should happen is academic conferences
Yeah. Not sure if I’m representative but was the least interesting Super Bowl prior to the game for me in a while and the game kind of went how I expected it to and was just pretty meh overall. Fun halftime tho!
Conor is the apex predator of that style
Look, he hasn’t denied it.
More than 34,000 Minnesotans signed up to be trained as ICED observers with various activist groups in recent weeks, many of them since Jan. 7, when a federal agent shot and killed Renée Good.
They said "free speech" and "academic freedom" but never believed in either and now in texas you need a permission slip to mention race in class and they're fine with it. Might not have worked if people with large platforms weren't furious about marginal increases of black people in their offices
The guy who’s favorite columnist was/is David brooks? Noooooooooo
Actual sign of a “vibe shift”: Ross Douthat has recently made a hard pivot back to trying to seem like the “reasonable conservative” as opposed to the open propagandist he was all of 2025.
Apparently they've made the audition process for a job at DHS more demanding.
Democrats should demand every sitting Republican decry this attack and explicitly denounce it, and then censure all of them when they don’t do it. Act like normal decent humans defending your colleague.
REP. OMAR after being attacked with liquid: “We will continue! These fucking assholes are not gonna get away with this! Here is the reality people like this ugly man don’t understand — we are Minnesota Strong. We’ll stay resilient in the face of whatever they might throw at us.”
This is actual courage and leadership. Wow.
americans hate it when they're shown on tv doing something cool
Alex Pretti’s most immediate legacy is galvanizing the country against tyranny. We should do what we can to see to it that his other legacy is reclaiming the public meaning of masculinity from the whiny, sadistic freaks responsible for his murder. www.offmessage.net/p/alex-prett...
[every Minnesotan standing one by one]: “I am Kent Hrbek 420.”
That’s my takeaway so far. It’s way worse but I haven’t noticed an ideological slant.
This just reads like both sides nonsense. I’m glad they’re saying something, but it fails to identify why tensions are high and who has the power to bring them down.
Gregg Popovich
You have to read this. Firsthand affidavit from one of the women who was there and recording the video. She talks about how Alex Pretti was directing traffic when she arrived. She watched him be killed in front of her. She's afraid to go home, worried she'll be arrested.
