Time to break out this oldie from Trump 1.
I don't believe we live in a simulation, but I could be convinced by guys named Pete Skandal popping up to do scandals.
D.A. Fani Willis had the courage, the grit, the experience, the facts, and the law to bring Trump to account.
It is so disappointing that an error in her judgment gave Trump’s team the opening they needed to have her removed from the case.

Pete Skandalakis, who took over the case after Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis was disqualified, said the case was "without precedent."

1. Ellison runs Paramount into the ground
2. Paramount files for bankruptcy
3. We all pool our money to buy Star Trek
4. Run it as a co-op
5. I finally get to live the dream and make Star Trek: Deep Space Nine 2
the last Rush Hour movie came out in 2007 and had a significantly lower box office than 2, and now you're reviving it 20 years later as a personal vanity project of the unpopular President?

just one more data point for "David Ellison is going to run Paramount right into the fucking ground"
Rush Hour 4 is reportedly a go at Paramount – after Trump intervened on behalf of the movie.

1. A landmark study was just published in The Journal of Pediatrics.

It found a 68% reduction in suicidality for trans youth getting HRT.

It also found only 7 of more than 400 stopped taking HRT... and of those that did, 4 still identified as gender-diverse.

Transgender care saves lives.
Study In The Journal Of Pediatrics Finds Trans Youth Care Lowers Suicidality, Few Detransition
The groundbreaking study found that suicidality dropped for transgender youth receiving hormone therapy by nearly 70%, with only 7 patients of 432 discontinuing treatment.

This really is the most awesome product. Male (gay) sheep are usually culled because they don’t reproduce, but a sheep farmer has rescued them and they have a line of clothing produced from their wool to support the gay sheep.

Best advice is to wear little bells, so the bears know you're coming, and carry bear spray. It also helps to be able to identify scat. Black bear scat has undigested bits of berries and twigs. Grizzly bear scat smells like bear spray and has little bells in it.

Over many interviews, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. told Michael Scherer about how he plans to remake America’s public-health system. Can he lead the scientific establishment he’s spent much of his life crusading against?

What is 'the most common way to blow a lead in an NFL game?'
The Eagles opened up their offense to start this game, scored points, looked fun, got a 3-score lead, and then went right into extreme conservative mode.

Seeing the former Detroit Shock in the news is probably the closest I'll ever get to knowing how Seattle SuperSonics fans feel.
For the second year in a row, the Dallas Wings won the No. 1 overall pick in the 2026 WNBA draft.

Rest of the lottery order:

2. Minnesota Lynx
3. Seattle Storm
4. Washington Mystics
5. Chicago Sky

I see Pistons fans on reddit talking about "can the Pistons go undefeated until January" and I'm not touching that talk because after I (jokingly) posted this quoted post in October 2023, the Pistons lost 28 straight games.
They may never lose again!

I like this. This team feels crazy deep right now and those deep bench guys played great when everybody was injured.
JB said he's sticking with a 12-man rotation for now. "We’re going to give guys opportunity, especially in the first half and see how the game progresses in the second half. It may not always be easy but guys are going to have an opportunity because they’ve earned it."
