AOC: "It is unconscionable that what we are debating right now is legislation that will give 8 senators over $1 million a piece & we're robbing people of their food assistance & healthcare to pay for it. How can we vote to enrich ourselves by stealing from the American people?"

Something that’s so striking in these emails is how…unimpressive Epstein is. He comes off as a pompous, sub-literate lech. Yes everyone is so mortifyingly solicitous of him! All fawning and flattery! Why?????

Chris Jericho has a keen mind and sharp eye for adaptation.
He was instrumental in building AEW'S perception to wider audiences when it first started, and has helped build many talents along the way.
Over time, perception has shifted. That's okay. The WWE audience will welcome him with open arms.

I just walked out of federal court where I pleaded NOT GUILTY to the charges against me.
I will continue to stand up to authoritarianism and call this out for what it is: a political prosecution.

The president of the united states is a pedophile rapist who was best buddies with Jeffrey Epstein and spent hours with an underage victim at Epstein's home. Now he's currently huddled in the situation room directing a cover up about it like it's a seal team 6 operation. Do I have that right?

MLS is moving to multiple divisions and a playoff format where if you lose against good teams you drop down and play bad teams. What if they combined these ideas? Top teams play against each other in one division, and the losers drop to a worse division next season — could be really innovative

Mercedes Moné has gone around the world, putting her spotlight on promotions and female talent and having great matches.
She deserves to be #1 in the PWI 500.
Rhea, IYO, et al in WWE are equally talented and influential.
I think Mone gets points for doing it w/o WWE machine behind her.

If you are taught to guess instead of read then I suppose a predictive text model that creates facsimiles of information might look like thinking to you…
ever since I learned about three-cueing I've developed infinitely more patience for replies on social media. mfers literally do not know how to read. people are walking around conjuring random meanings into words they don't know, and they don't know a lot of words. it's crazy

I figured that Streeting would build on his creep towards the leadership over the next 6+ months, ready to oust Starmer after the inevitably terrible local election results. But now I think he'll be in place by Monday afternoon. And his popularity will be lower than Starmer's by Monday evening.
