I still like yellow numbers. I now like blue skies.
I don’t think the odds are in favor of SCOTUS turning around and blocking California’s congressional maps, but it’s gotta be at least like 25% that they do right?

“the USPS must turn a profit” makes me want to set things on fire

they put a clause in the fucking constitution about postal service, that’s how important it is

nothing in there about “only if you can make money on it”
🚨SCOOP: Amazon is preparing to sever ties with USPS and expand its shipping network as a true coast-to-coast rival.

It could cost USPS more than *$6 billion* a year in lost revenue, and lead Amazon to dominate yet another facet of the economy.

USPS posted a *$9 billion* loss in 2025.

Amazon looks into expanding its nationwide delivery network and giving up its longstanding partnership with the U.S. Postal Service.

DC statehood is the moderate position.
NEW: Republican-led states, in a new filing at the D.C. Circuit, say D.C. residents are irrelevant, D.C. belongs to everyone else. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

The filing is led by the South Carolina and West Virginia attorneys general. Both states sent troops to DC.

I cannot imagine ever wanting to attend a university where my studies are limited rather explicitly to what is needed for professional licensure or even just explicitly relevant to my chosen professional pathway.
TX Tech has a flow chat for guidance on what can be taught in the university system. Two things:
1. Very little content seems to be permitted. This is partisan control of the curriculum.
2. I would not enjoy teaching under these conditions, but I really would not want to be a Chair or Dean.

Connor Bedard is going to get his a** kicked soon. He’s not nearly good enough to act the way he does.

Don’t have strong feeling on the situation or the parties involved overall, but it’s sad to see Lane Kiffin mature and succeed into a likeable figure only to seemingly go right back to villain status so willingly.

Eat sh*t you subservient POS Wildcats. Serves Northwestern right.

NHL taking points away here from the Blues with an absolutely awful major penalty call on replay.

I didn’t think it was possible to have a disappointing 7-win Illini football season but here we are.

Every single Arkansas tackler tried to strip the football and not a single one of them tried to actually tackle the returner.

What the hell is Arkansas doing kicking FGs
November 29, 2025 at 10:51 PM
Arkansas just choosing not to get two points and then celebrating lol.

If Mizzou is going to pay Drinkwitz and his staff that much money, do the expectations change for him? Idk if you can get paid that much and still have the soft fall back of “winning 9 games is still a great season here.”

One of the reasons other teams keep beating the Blues is that they have good players.

Probably the best part about this trade currently isn't the parts involved (I see some smart people saying good things, though), but just the fact that it was made.

Welcome to the Chaim Bloom era: where things actually happen.

Can't wait for the Arenado trade to break.

Somebody tell me how to feel about the Sonny Gray trade bc I don't know anything about the prospects.

Not my most favorite idea, but I do have a strong confidence he’d win.

Trump and his Administration are targeting me because I said something they didn’t like — but here’s the thing: I won’t be intimidated into silence. I’ve overcome challenges a lot tougher than Donald Trump or Pete Hegseth.

Put Star Wars opinions up there with your fantasy football team happenings and AI discourse as things I simply do not want to hear from you.

(And I love Star Wars. And have opinions. And even say them outloud sometimes.)
