Big Texas game tomorrow and YouTube + Disney decide they don't have enough $ … so I just rush-ordered a TV antenna from Amazon like it’s 1978. Wild that in 2025, the “open” option is literal broadcast air.
So tempted to cancel YouTube TV for good...

The 10 college football coaches fired so far this season are owed a collective $169 MILLION to do nothing. Meanwhile our government public servants are getting paid nothing while working thankless jobs. #merica

Trying to rationalize all the division we see around us. Maybe it really comes down to one thing — a complete lack of trust.
Trust
While trying to rationalize all the division we see around us, it hit me. Maybe it really comes down to one thing — a complete lack of trust. At this point, the cause almost doesn’t matter. Media, algorithms, and AI are not helping. Trust is built slowly and lost quickly. It grows when we show up consistently, listen more than we talk, and work to understand instead of rushing to judge.

You can tell trump actually wrote the first paragraph but not the rest Because of the Senseless use of Capital letters!
The United States is seeking to steal the sovereignty of Brazil, there's really no other way to describe this. It's an effort to overthrow their domestic political institutions.
