Oh you mean LIKE THIS!?! (have to put the toys away before the kids come home and ruin them.)
Yes, I am absolutely going to see this piece of cinema in Infinity Vision.
When you get to very end part of the crushed red pepper container and each last serving gets exponentially spicier, all of the accumulated heat forced down to the bottom, you can’t rush this process, it’s like a holiday, a delicious lunch holiday.
Gift link: Definitely investigate municipal corruption. But the framing of this headline forces you to focus on "plumber" and "$465,000," drawing the reader in with a shared assumption that a tradesman doesn't deserve this much money. Oligarchs take in much more. www.nytimes.com/2026/07/07/n...
I don’t known man, you throw statements like this deep into a straight Times report about congress, and it’s like, that’s not true. We had a decade of Mitch McConnell shaping SCOTUS via raw majority rule. Every reconciliation bill since. How do you write a sentence like this with a straight face?
Sliced steak and no sides, plates, or non-knife utensils, NYTimes gets it.
Macho Man and Elizabeth also got married at MSG, for WWF Summer Slam 1991. I guarantee you Taylor and Travis will use this iconic moment as inspiration:
How would Batman exist in the popular culture today if this series never happened? Cemented Batman for like three additional generations. You need to keep these characters alive or they will disappear like Dick Tracy and the Lone Ranger.
I’d suggest next time authorities say it in a way that doesn’t require rereading it five times just to make it make sense.
Happy Shamrock Shake day for everyone who observes. 8 years and counting.
Wow can’t wait to see what other weapons we fire off that we haven’t used since WWII.
George W Bush declared mission accomplished in Iraq after 6 weeks of war.
Went to the corner deli, picked up sodas for the kids as a treat. My son is like, this tastes different. I look closer and it turns out it’s a version of Sprite from … Iraq? Then I tasted it and it tasted way different, like an xmas wreath and cumin. Anyway glad their export soda biz is doing well.
So will we get any clarity about the two women charged with biting a federal officer’s finger off? Or will it turn out that Noem made it up and pushed out an AI pic of a finger in a jar moments after they killed Alex Pretti? CBS says the bite was through a glove and the tip was found severed inside?
"The military occupation did little to subdue the rising anger between Boston colonists and British power. Instead of controlling the population, British military presence only exacerbated the issue." - National Park Service web site. www.nps.gov/articles/000...
Very disappointed the NHL didn’t postpone all hockey games today, especially the Panthers v Minnesota Wild in the Twin Cities. All teams should have protested, like the Timberwolves did in the NBA. This shit is unacceptable and will only stop when the public makes it crystal clear we demand it now.
