Weird they didn't factor this into the headline on fucking betting apps being used to predict election results:

"However, prior to the debate, bookmaker Star Sports gave Mamdani an 80 percent chance of victory, which improved in the immediate aftermath of the debate to 93.3 percent."

Mr. Mamdani, would you go to a parade in Israel celebrating Hitler's death? Why not? Are you afraid of parades? Do you wish Hitler were still alive?

My youtube feed is like 90% games - trackmania, among us, the tower, the bazaar, and 10% other stuff like dan mcclellan, speed running, dropout, and taskmaster. Yet YouTube pushes scantily clad women wearing revealing costumes for halloween? GTFOH.

Typically, if you're going to flip a car over an obstacle in the road, you don't want the ramp launching the car to be so visible in the original and every subsequent shot. #Nemesis4

Having so many issues with Google Home after upgrading my router. Figure the best thing to do is just delete my house from the app and start over completely once the kitchen remodel is done.

Given I've seen 2 of Dustin Ferguson's 206 "films" and they line up, maybe I should try to complete a bingo with The Clown Chainsaw Massacre, A Taste of Phobia, and Zombi VIII: Urban Decay.

You seem to have left out from the headline that the VICE PRESIDENT refuses to condemn the texts.

The New York Times @nytimes.com · 4d

The Republicans officials who participated in a monthslong racist, homophobic and vulgar text chat are being condemned by some in their own party, and some have lost their jobs or been called on to resign.

Still amazing that people think this admin is fighting anti-semitism when their whole rank and file is filled with anti-semites.

Blake (Strixtle) @blakex.com · 4d

Turns out 109 is a common white supremacist/anti Semitic true referring to the Jews allegedly being kicked out of 109 countries. So thanks for making me go down that rabbit hole. Explains a lot of the cryptic comments on the video too.

Blake (Strixtle) @blakex.com · 4d

Thanks TikTok for the thinly-veiled anti Semitic content. Some guy was interviewing a girl in a gym and asked "if you get kicked out of 109 bars, are you the problem?" I was confused why the girl got upset and had to Google it as the comments didn't offer any help.
