@omgsidewalks Don’t follow your passion, do what you’re good at.

I'm 22. Please recommend to me oddly specific life tips. No general “surround yourself with positive people” tips. I want the most random, specific advice possible please.

@krassenstein He will claim victory because the Strait is open. No regime change, no seizure of the enriched uranium. Wasn’t the strait open for all before the war? We blew a bunch of shit up , Hegseth puffed up his chest, nothing changed. Bebe played DJT like a fiddle. If I were a rich man

My guess is that Trump chickens out this evening and extends the deadline, claiming that the discussions have been positive, even though nothing has changed. I hope this is the case

@atrupar Never mind the 4.19 a gallon paid to fill up.

Trump: "The biggest problem we have in our negotiation is they can't communicate. I said to Steve, what are they saying? 'Sir, they can't communicate. They have no method of communication.' So we're communicating like they used to communicate 2,000 years ago with children bringing a note back and forth."

@RpsAgainstTrump Us Boomers who brought you personal computers and cell phones. Those guys? GTFOH Pillsbury doughboy

Chris Christie: “Baby boomers—the most selfish generation in American history, the most self-centered generation…You look at Biden and Trump in particular, and they personify that”

@JakePearson303 Problem is I don’t see Dr In front of your name. I have quite a few Dr buddies and when I was hesitant about taking a statin they all basically had the same reply. “Don’t be a f**king idiot, take the statin.” So there’s that!

Big Pharma told you statins were the only way, but they didn’t tell you about muscle pain, brain fog, and T-killing effects. It’s a trap. It’s time to escape the statin deception. Take control of your heart health with Citrus Bergamot + Berberine. 1… twitter.com/i/web/status/2…

@game7__ Let me get you a good hunk of cheese with that whine brother. UConn all day every day!!

It's rare that sports fans agree on anything. But everyone seems to be in agreement today: Duke got robbed this weekend. Dan Hurley and UConn have been flagrantly ignoring the rules for the entirety of the NCAA Tournament. Sunday was no exception. There were still 0.4 seconds on the clock. The game was live. Dan Hurley walked toward a referee on the sideline. He got in the official’s face. Then he pressed his forehead directly into the ref’s forehead. SI called it a “menacing forehead tap.” No technical foul was called. If it had been, Duke shoots two free throws. Down one. With an 86% free throw shooter at the line. Here's what actually happened and why this should be a much bigger story than it is. Braylon Mullins hit a 35-foot three to give UConn a 73-72 lead with 0.4 seconds left. It was the shot of the tournament. Nobody is disputing that. But in the seconds after the shot, Hurley walked toward a referee, got in his face, and pressed his forehead directly into the official's forehead. Sports Illustrated described it as a "menacing forehead tap." The clock still showed 0.4 seconds. The game was not over. A technical foul on a head coach for making contact with an official during a live ball is one of the easiest calls in basketball. There is no gray area. Contact with a game official is a technical. If it's called, Duke's Isaiah Evans steps to the free throw line, trailing 73-72. He shot 86% from the stripe this season. Makes both? Duke wins 74-73. Makes one? Overtime. That wasn't the only violation. When Mullins' shot went in, UConn bench players ran onto the court to celebrate before the game was over. They caught themselves and ran back, but they had already entered the playing area during a live ball. Duke's radio announcers immediately called for a technical. That wasn't called either. Two separate technical foul violations. Zero calls. In the span of 0.4 seconds. And here's what makes the Hurley part impossible to ignore. Three weeks ago, on March 7, Hurley was ejected from UConn's game at Marquette in the final second for getting in a referee's face. He was chest-to-shoulder with the official. Double technical. Ejected. The Big East fined him $25,000 for unsportsmanlike conduct. In the Sweet 16 against Michigan State on March 27, Hurley challenged an out-of-bounds call, got it overturned, and then sarcastically offered his glasses to the ref who got it wrong. Lip readers caught him asking about Lasik. Nothing was called. Two days later against Duke, Hurley was officially "warned" during the game for leaving his coach's box. Told to stay put. Then after the buzzer beater, he went forehead-to-forehead with a ref. Ejected and fined $25,000 at Marquette. Taunted a ref to his face at Michigan State with no consequences. Warned during the Duke game for leaving his coach's box. Then physical contact with a referee in the biggest moment of the tournament. The full breakdown of every missed call and what would have happened if any of them were made is here: itsgame7.com/news/duke-got-… UConn came back from 19 down. Mullins hit one of the greatest shots in tournament history. That part was earned. But two technical foul violations in 0.4 seconds, and neither one called, on a coach who was ejected for the same thing three weeks ago? That's not intensity. That's a pattern. And last night, it changed the outcome of a game.

@gregkellyusa F**king clown show

Pete Hegseth should save his “trash talk” for his Podcast Bros. The reason PROFESSIONAL WARRIORS avoid unnecessary TAUNTING of the Enemy: it can come back and Bite, HARD. And it’s the PILOTS who fly over enemy territory at Risk. I served with FOUR PILOTS who got shot down and TORTURED. Lose an engine (only one in the F-35, thanks a lot Lockheed Martin!)—and they’ll be the ones to answer for Pete’s Rhetoric. Let General Cain talk more.

@MAGACult2 Seems like he’s been topping the scotch a lot lately. Maybe it’s just me but his speech is very slurry every time he speaks. He used to be a guy with some decorum but now? Geez

So Lindsey Graham went on TV and casually suggested the Gulf states might join a war with Iran. Because apparently Lindsey Graham now speaks for the entire Middle East. Bold strategy. Unfortunately for Lindsey, someone in the region actually heard him. Enter Emirati billionaire Khalaf Al Habtoor… who basically responded with the diplomatic equivalent of: “Who the f do you think you are?” And he didn’t whisper it behind closed doors. He said it in public. Which in international politics is the same thing as getting your ass handed to you in the middle of the cafeteria. And honestly… the funniest part is the confidence. Lindsey delivered the line like it’s still 2003, like everyone’s just waiting around for Washington to start another war so they can jump in line. Meanwhile the Gulf is looking at this guy like: “Buddy… we already rode that ride. It was a clusterf.” So now we’ve got an American senator volunteering half the Middle East for a war… …and the Middle East responding with the international relations version of: “Yeah… f no.” Somewhere in the State Department there is absolutely a career diplomat staring at the TV thinking: “Jesus Christ, Lindsey… stop talking.” Our favorite all-time Lady G clip will be in the comments.

Daylight Savings Time is coming. Please don’t remind me to change my clocks. It’s 2026 people, my clocks change themselves. Haha

@thejackhopkins That dude is a dope. Really

UPDATE: The WH states this is effective as of March 31st, 2026

Donald Trump has fired Kristi Noem. That's the good news. The bad news? Markwayne Mullin is taking her job. My Dad used to say something about "be careful what you wish for."

@AudreyFahlberg @joncoopertweets @NRO MarkWayne? That’s really going Dumb than Dumber.

SCOOP: Trump's furious that Noem said under oath in her Senate Judiciary hearing that the he had advance knowledge of the $220M DHS ad campaign & approved its release He's privately floated Markwayne Mullin as prospective replacement, @NRO has learned nationalreview.com/news/exclusive…

@NotAvgLiberal My bet is he’ll be there providing it’s not raining, but it will be the only one he does and let’s really pray there are no more. After today he’ll send JD and Pete.

Congratulations to the NE COY Clinic award winners. Scott Putnam Southington Knights youth football coach of the year. Cheshire’s Mike Ciotti, high school Assistant Coach of the year and Berlin Head Coach John Capodice the high school Head Coach of the year. @NECOYFootball

@LucasSa56947288 Sadly that’s probably very true. She is doing exactly what she was told to do by DJT. We know this and will reap the consequences of this for many years. People won’t forget.

🚨BREAKING: Pam Bondi was reportedly worried she will be heckled everywhere she goes for the rest of her life. You think she deserves it? 👍🏾

@Mollyploofkins Her conduct is embarrassing. When she started to spout about the stock market the committee should gave adjourned and went straight to an impeachment hearing, The fact she wouldn’t face victims and offer any sort of response was an egregious act that defies any sort of decency.

What word best describes US Attorney Gereral Pam Bondi?

@allenanalysis A man who’s reputation is now in tatters. He has been tossed from the elite circles he so enjoyed for so long ago. He is trying to make a comeback which will NOT happen. He is now the virus.

🚨 Alan Dershowitz is now claiming he’s the real victim. He says the Epstein files are “McCarthyism,” complains that accusers’ names are redacted, and argues he can’t “defend himself” without knowing who accused him. Meanwhile, this is the same man who: - Publicly smeared young victims - Called them liars and criminals - Tried to intimidate them - Now threatens lawsuits

@TheFungi669 Hahaha. That’s about 5 minutes in court to get that tossed.

Karoline Leavitt: “President Trump will revoke the passport of any Olympics athlete who has criticized him.”

@mmpadellan Bad Bunny made perfect sense from a business standpoint. There are 50 million Spanish speakers in the USA. Do you know how popular football is in the Spanish community? Ridiculously popular. (Mostly Cowboy fans). Haha. They’ll be a team in 🇲🇽 Mexico City one day. Seriously

BAD BUNNY: 135.4 million viewers KID ROCK: 5.7 million sad clowns WINNER: AMERICA 🇺🇸

@travisakers People love watching train wrecks dude.

CBS: 9.2 billion people around the world tuned into the TPUSA alternative halftime show.

@RepJackKimble HahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaGTFOHahahahaha

The crowd at the Olympics was not booing JD Vance. If you’ve ever been at a sporting event where they yell Coop or Lou it sounds very similar. They were yelling JD.
