CHECK OUT MY LATEST BLOG! I keep forgetting to promote this, but I did post on some random thoughts on ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE and it's use in FILM, and entertainment, and society in general. davidbaruffi.blogspot.com/2026/01/random…

@Dtgreat13 @PeteThamel It wouldn't have to just be an overly large bet, a bunch of smaller bets adding up to those big numbers on games involving goddamn Towson St. and Robert Morris would also draw obvious suspicion. Nobody bets on these games, much less stuff like props and 1st half bets!

@PeteThamel Wait! I thought we were all assured that overly large one time wagers on small events would be flagged. Who the hell is out there betting 1/2 a mil on Towson vs. UNC A&T?

Among the Wagers listed in the indictment *Approximately $458,000 on Towson to beat UNC A&T *Approximately $424,000 on Kent State to cover the first-half spread against Buffalo * $275,000 on South Alabama to cover the first-half spread of against Southern Miss * $256,000 on Northern Kentucky to cover the first-half spread against Robert Morris. * Approximately $ 161,000 on Louisiana-Lafayette to cover the first-half spread against Southern Miss.

We climbed through the canopy Only to find a crack in our gauge The last thing, a look you gave And then we tumbled out of control I tried to strike a deal with the universe Me and my deals with the universe Smacked upside the head Wish the harsh of daylight....

Donald Trump: “Why can’t we have some people from Norway?” As a Norwegian, here is my answer: In Norway, we have permanent employment guaranteed by law, collective wage agreements, and strong unions. In the US, you can lose your job overnight, without any reason. In Norway, you can be sick without being financially punished. In the US, getting sick can mean losing both your pay and your job. In Norway, we have the right to paid holiday, leave, and a secure pension. And healthcare and education are free. In the US, much of this is up to your boss—if you are lucky. And this is not a coincidence. It is the result of ordinary people standing together, organising, and fighting for these rights. So no thanks, I am not moving to get worse rights. I will stay and defend the working life we have built here.

So, CBS News decided not to air this 25 yr veteran federal agent pointing out all the ways the ICE agent was in the wrong for shooting Renee Good, on its broadcast (I wonder why🤨). At least it’s online. Reshare.

None of this would be happening if we held Trump accountable for trying to overthrow our government 5 years ago.

“They’re eating the dogs. They’re eating the cats.” “The 2020 election was stolen.” “January 6th was Nancy Pelosi’s fault.” “She’s a domestic terrorist.” “I’ll lower grocery prices on day one.” “No new foreign entanglements.” Lies. All lies.

2 died of Ebola: They said Obama should resign. 4 died in Benghazi: They had Hillary testify for 11 hours, held 33 hearings, and launched a 4-year probe. 881,776 Covid deaths, an armed insurrection & theft of classified documents: They cheered, and elected Trump as dictator.

A reminder - before Trump, MAGA, Musk and Fox rewrote history - that this is what the entire country agreed had happened five years ago today:

Samuel Alito flew two flags used by insurrectionists. Clarence Thomas' wife plotted to overturn the 2020 election. Both justices refused to recuse themselves from SCOTUS cases related to the January 6th plot. It's a stain on our nation that this has effectively been forgotten.

Never was a cornflake girl Thought it was a good solution Hanging with the raisin girls She's gone to the other side Giving us the yo heave ho Things are getting kind of gross And I go at sleepy time This is not really This, this, this is not really happening....

Someone's knockin' on my kitchen door Leave the wood outside what All the girls here are freezing cold Leave me with your Borneo I said I don't need much to keep me warm Don't stop now what you're doing What you're doing my ugly one Bring them all here....

Okay, music friends help me on this, BILLY JOEL's "THE STRANGER" album, if you take all the songs on the album and rank the best-to-worst, where do you rank "VIENNA"? Like, I love the song but I'd put it like 6th or 7th best song on the album? open.spotify.com/album/3IILMjMM…

I've been on the other side Got my lips smacked, now they're dry Then you call me, call me in You think I am your possession You're messing with a southern girl But my recipe is on with your Stale bread, yeah it's hot But, baby, I don't need your cash So, baby, maybe I let....

Heard from the TV Of the latest bombing The girls were dancing She was coming of age Shells fired out Flowers mowed down Innocence targeted Whose God is this? Wish that she had one more day There at the seaside 5th of December We chased the tide As her treasures Were gathered...
