Male friendship should evolve from the celebrated "Dylan, you son of a bitch" handclasp arm wrestling greeting in Predator and more toward the confession Robert Pattinson's Neil makes to John David Washington's Protagonist in describing their mobius-enduring bond in Tenet, "We get up to some stuff."

Power Greater is a really inspired, so to speak, program, and this sounds like it'll be a timely entry.
(For those who shudder at the timeslot, KALX keeps all its programming available to stream for two weeks after initial broadcast, though I did actually wake up to tune into the Joy Division ep).

Bob Iger saw the SNL Green Flags sketch not even a week ago and thought "this could be us."
I mean maybe he knew "it's already us" in markets they can't police so might as let the real D cash in.

Also I can only read this signature as Peanut Butter Kegstand for some reason. Might be a hallucinatory artifact.

The addiction to oil metaphor has gone too far.
A press corps with stones would ask whether the administration is following the example of Somali pirates or Iran. Follow up with what's being said by the U.S. doing this and jack all about a Russian shadow fleet actually violating oil sanctions.

“What is will power?” asked Toad.

If you think screen time was bad for kids last year because of serious brain development issues, it's about to get a lot worse as hucksters like Kevin Fischer screw with their emotional and social development with fake friends online.

They're using the confinement box, one of the most horrific methods of CIA torture in the post-9/11 black sites, against migrants now. This is the direct result of the lack of consequences for the architects of the torture program. Either there will be criminal penalties for this or it will expand.

We need someone born on February 3 needs to provide a 28 days later perspective.
There’s a sentence on page 2 that is longer than Bluesky’s character limit.
And the sole knowledge that sentence conveys is “Olivia was born on January 6th.”
