My dog of almost 20yrs had died. We just lost her "sister" we had for about 18yrs a few months back. This just hurts.

Bill Walton. Only player to win 6th Man of the Year, MVP, & Finals MVP. All with only about 4-5 years not derailed by injury. Without injuries Walton is likely in top 5 consideration.
You can’t say Derrick Rose. Name an athlete you wish had a fully healthy career.

Imagining explaining to the Founding Fathers that the president imposed tariffs without an act of Congress and then removed them at the request of the King of England
NEW: Trump dropping all tariffs on Scottish whiskey in honor of King Charles

Please follow my dude @DeivonDrago . It's an intellectual crime he's got less than 1000 followers! Excellent science and philosophy commentaries!
A couple of things: 1) no one actually uses this form of the SM Lagrangian. We always use some subset of it depending on what we are working on and we write in it a much shorter compact form. Usually fits on one line. 2) you can put gravity in there! All you have to do is write down a Lagrangian for GR as an EFT, and you can add it in here just fine. (works well in the infrared).

MAGA authoritarianism is pretending the president is “joking” when he makes death threats, but comedians are somehow “shaping public policy” when they make jokes.

If God is all-powerful it could simply will that everyone knows it exists. Or everyone that desires to know it exists. Or everyone it wants to know it exists. The issue isn't with those who don't know God exists. God could resolve it all with a thought.
Dear athiest, is there anything I can say to convince you that God is real?

This is the real "fake news." Media covering up for authoritarians pilfering the nation's US wealth & labor to enrich "elite" morons. An older Biden overcoming a stutter was a national emergency. An unhinged moron unable to even stay awake is just "Trump being Trump."
Trump fell asleep again during a live televised meeting. If Joe Biden had done that, the media would have treated it like a national emergency and run wall-to-wall panic coverage for a week. But when Trump does it, they look the other way because the clown show keeps their ratings up and their pockets full. The hypocrisy is disgraceful. The media failed the country, and they know it.

It's difficult for me to conceive of causing worse harm in a more despicable way with just a media platform than what Alex Jones did to Sandy Hook families after the tragedy. Families dealing with the slaughter of their children being unable to visit the graves. Having to move!
If Alex Jones had tormented me after my child was murdered then I’d want him destroyed and never show him any mercy. It’s always been strange that right wingers believe the Sandy Hook parents should give him a pass I wouldn’t

What is really wild is that they were out there doing this shit on non-guaranteed contracts
They used to find the fastest man in the NFL by actually racing. No debates or hypotheticals. And even with no force plates, no resisted devices, etc. they had legit speed. Bring this back!!

This is actually one of my favorite photos from the era. A stark reminder that resistance is strategic, planned, and disciplined.

Yesterday should have been a national day of celebration. The President should have been on tv telling the country to “look up” and marvel at what we can do. Instead he announced the continuation of a war he started.

Yea, the absolute earliest we can have a democratic president is January 2029. And yea it will be a tough, painful lesson for some of you. Next time we give you a normal, qualified, decent person to vote for you better jump at the chance.
We’re beyond a tipping point and democrats are really like “we’ll get him in 2029” Baby there ain’t gonna be a 2029 at this rate.

I'd like to revisit to Charlie Kirk phenomenon. Here's a guy who said, the Civil Rights Act of the 60's was a mistake that was turned into an anti-white weapon. He once said, "If I see a Black pilot, I’m going to be like, ‘Boy, I hope he’s qualified." He went as far as to called Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson (a black woman) a 'diversity hire' saying she wasn't qualified to serve on the court despite her extraordinary judicial experience. He was a vile racist, who was embraced by this administration, millions adore him and he was given a National Day of Remembrance and flags were lowered to half staff. Yet, the same wasn't done for Civil Rights leader (Rev. Jessie Jacskon). I won't ask why or how Charlie Kirk was embraced this way. I already know. So when I say that everything in America is about race. This is what I mean.
