Like, there is a decent chance we will be talking about Game 5 of the 2025 ALDS between Detroit and Seattle for the rest of our lives, the same way we talk about Texas/Toronto

I was at hardly strictly with my family and we were like “dang it’s an afternoon game, we’ll miss it, oh well.” and then we watched nine innings of baseball

yeah I’m sure it’s cynical and strategic, lady’s a smart politician. but it’s still strategically asking him to come kill more civilians in boats

This recognition of the struggle of all Venezuelans is a boost to conclude our task: to conquer Freedom.
We are on the threshold of victory and today, more than ever, we count on President Trump, the people of the United States, the peoples of Latin America, and the democratic nations of the world as our principal allies to achieve Freedom and democracy.
I dedicate this prize to the suffering people of Venezuela and to President Trump for his decisive support of our cause!

an anti communist who openly supports US military intervention and has specifically supported the trump admin's illegal strikes on civilian boats in the gulf winning the nobel peace prize is not a refutation of trump just because she's a woman. it is, if anything, a strengthening of his position.

sure he’s a great player but the clubhouse is so fucking sick of hearing “damn! We’re in a tight spot” every time someone goes down 0-2

Clayton Kershaw’s postseason legacy is a full season sample size of being, essentially, Patrick Corbin
