@johnkonrad Guy with a big nose: "Scoop", guy whose last name is Bright: "Notso"

On offshore oil rigs, almost everybody had a nickname. There was Tatter, because he puked up a plate of potatoes. Tiger, because he once caught an Exxon tank on fire. Stump, short, flat-top, and pushing 300 pounds. Big Country. Little Country. Cellophane. Don’t ask about Cellophane 🤢 Sometimes they changed when you switched rigs Mine was Left Coast Yankee. I told someone I was from New York, which they really didn’t like. He gave me endless hell for it, so I tried to recover by saying, “Yeah, but I live in California now.” That made it much much worse.

@enjoyer_liberty Could be worse; could be a submariner.

If you ever think you’re having a bad day, just think for a moment about Sydney Sweeney’s poor brother. Active Duty Air Force surrounded by degenerates while having the most famous sex symbol since Marilyn Monroe as his SISTER. Fucking brutal. Shoutout to Trent Sweeney, man.

@johnkonrad Yeah, I work with millennials and gen-z types who drive expensive cars and take expensive vacations then complain that they'll never be able to own a house. These youngsters are engineers so they are making good salaries but man, displaced priorities.

At my local liberal elite coffee shop a millennial woman is in tears because she can’t afford private school tuition. She’s on speakerphone so everyone hears. She qualifies for food stamps. She is an immigrant and a lesbian. Everyone is waiting for her to get off the phone to console her. OK. BUT… she just spent $3,000 on airline tickets for a vacation and booked $400 meal one of the nights. And summer camp for her kids while she goes. Every millennial I know is absolutely addicted to travel to foreign nations. WTF. They talk about it like it’s a human right. Why the F can’t she put her kids into her Subaru and drive them to Florida like a normal person? Or the thousands of great coastal vacation spots between Bar Harbor Maine and Key West. Why is nobody suggesting this to her? And it’s not just her. My millennial friends who have money are constantly jumping on planes overseas. Like if they go more than two months without travel they start freaking out. I’m generation x. I don’t get it. Someone please explain this to me in crayons. I mean I love traveling too but holy crap does it get expensive fast. Are these people all just in crazy debt?

@SofiGaming The definition of "Looks fast standing still."

THEY BROUGHT A B-1 to the SHOWWWWW

@lexxisfuzzbox You got a Golden Throat to match that Big Muff?

I might be a solid 6 and almost 40 years of age, but… I’ve got an arsenal of guitars and vintage effects pedal including a 1986 BigMuff

@HomeMediaX @gbrumfiel @ripplebrain @TBowmanNPR @MCCCANM Dual redundant systems.

@gbrumfiel @ripplebrain @TBowmanNPR @MCCCANM , I'm trying to understand how if a pilot took shrapnel, that the plane likely remained flyable. Seems unlikely that control surfaces on a plane that requires a computer to control it, that a pilot got hit and the plane remained flyable, but WTF do I know.

Our pentagon correspondent @TBowmanNPR reports pilot is in stable condition with shrapnel wounds. F-35 made a “hard landing” and won’t be returning to service anytime soon.

@DanFedick @NoVA_Campaigns @SpanbergerForVA @Boeing Moving to St. Louis, the old HQ for McDonnell Douglas.

@NoVA_Campaigns @SpanbergerForVA @Boeing Moving to. Chicago?

VA Gov Democrat @SpanbergerForVA just lost @Boeing’s HQ in Arlington, VA Boeing announced on Wednesday that it will shift its Defense, Space and Security HQ back to St Louis after relocating to Chicago & then Arlington, VA, in 2022 Companies fleeing VA stlpr.org/economy-busine…

Name someone more masculine than Tim Walz. 🤣

@clashreport Who wants to be first to fly a jailbreak F 35

BIG: Dutch Defence Minister Gijs Tuinman hints that software independence is possible for F-35 jets. He literally said you can “jailbreak” an F-35. When asked if Europe can modify it without US approval: “That’s not the point… we’ll see whether the Americans will show their true colors.” And then he dropped this: “I'm going to say something I should never say, but I'll do it anyway. Just like your iPhone, you can jailbreak an F-35. I won't say more about it.” Source: BNR Nieuwsradio Podcast

@MrPitbull07 These days, he should be happy for the confirmation that you're an actual woman.

Am I overreacting? New boyfriend was strangely judgmental about my bathroom setup I (30s F) have been casually dating someone (40s M) for a little over a month. He’s spent the night at my place a few times. The last time, he felt comfortable enough to use the bathroom in the morning. He gave me a heads-up, and I mentioned that I had Poo-Pourri by the toilet if he wanted to use it. Afterward, he came out of the bathroom looking upset and was unusually quiet while I made breakfast sandwiches. He even asked for his food to-go. I had a feeling something was off. I replayed the night in my head—everything had gone really well until then. I thought maybe he was just embarrassed about using my bathroom. A little while after he left, he texted me: “It’s weird that you made me dive into your period stuff to have some self-respect about an actual shit.” I’m honestly confused. Did I do something wrong? Am I overreacting to think this is way out of line? I live alone—should I be changing my bathroom to make it more “comfortable” for guests? Are period products really that offensive? ~We do not care via FB

@IanJaeger29 Ya know, it would be really funny if all the ICE tracker apps got flooded with reports of ICE agents at polling places on election day.

BREAKING: Democratic Senator Elissa Slotkin warns that the Trump Administration will place ICE agents at polling stations across the country for the midterms.

@GovSherrillNJ Given who the money is going to, DoT needs to be conducting continuous audits.

The President illegally canceled the most important infrastructure project in the nation. We took him to court. We won. A judge ordered him to release the money. Last night, the Court again said: pay up. Enough is enough. Release the funds now.

@BuzzPatterson @SenMarkKelly How apt, Blue Falcon wearing blue.

Hey military guys, we finally have a replacement for Jane Fonda. Piss on this dude. @SenMarkKelly

@KurtSchlichter You're cut off, pal.

She’s sexy!

@grok @recentiy03 @FloatingToHome @GovernorVA Now do Gordon Ramsay commenting on this "feast"

Ah, Virginia in the crisp winter light—here's the governor herself, apron-clad and grinning like she's just discovered fire, tongs flipping ragged strips of beef on a greasy grill. Smoke curls up, fat sizzles, and that guy's "BEEF It's What's For Dinner" vibe screams heartland hustle. But zoom in, and it's a raw, bony mess—primal, unapologetic, the kind of grill that reminds you meat's a battlefield. Order up, indeed; life's too short for well-done.

Order up! 🥩

@theblaze As it turns out, getting legal advice from tik-tok may not have been the best idea...

ICE ramps up arrests against 'legal observers': Reuters dlvr.it/TQvZsG

@OldArmyBroad @libsoftiktok @MikeProof If they show you who they are, believe them.

@libsoftiktok @MikeProof There’s lots and lots of Richard Cranium jokes to be made here 🤣

Anti-ICE activists in Minneapolis are now sticking dildos to their own heads to protest against arresting criminal illegal aliens. They're also throwing the dildos at federal agents and assaulting federal vehicles.

@JonathanTurley Raskin making the paternalistic assumption that wimmen can't figure out this ID thing?

This week, Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD) offered a bizarre argument against Voter ID: the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act, if passed, would likely violate the 19th Amendment to the Constitution. It is an entirely meritless suggestion ... jonathanturley.org/2026/02/08/ras…

@cb75075 @HariSel57511397 Kirk treated the Prime Directive as more of a suggestion. Rightly so in most cases.

@HariSel57511397 Actually Kirk was that based figure.

Benjamin Sisko is the darling of the Dissident Right, the based Captain who made all the edgy choices, and I’m going to explain why that was a bad thing. Well, thankfully it wasn’t bad for us. Sisko was in many ways the death knell of the Left’s high-minded principles. He was the first major character in Star Trek to substantially voice the power of the exception. And after that, Star Trek was philosophically finished. Now it’s very useful to think of values and morals as problem solving tools. They are ingrained compasses which are designed to optimally guide you through every situation you encounter in life. Of course, “optimally” does not need to mean the most materially well off. As most of us would agree, being a “good” person is more valuable or “optimal” than being rich. But what if these problem-solving tools are unable to solve the problem at hand? Not from an ignorance or a failure to apply the moral system, but rather a fundamental defect in the system itself? What happens when the tools you use no longer work? What happens when you are no longer able to reach the desired outcomes? You either have to compromise with a less than desirable outcome, or you make an exception. You step out of the framework in order to solve the problem. In other words, you make a moral compromise. Benjamin Sisko was Star Trek thinking it could get away with a moral compromise. But the problem with moral compromises is that you generally find yourself making more and more exceptions as time goes on. Sure, you say to yourself that it will be just this once, and maybe it is for a while, maybe a long time, but another situation will come along. And then you make another exception. The problem is that Star Trek had nowhere to go after Sisko’s blatant exceptions. It didn’t offer any alternative morality other than the naked use of power. After Sisko, there was no salvaging the utopia and keeping it internally consistent. The Federation owes its continued existence to a man who betrayed everything it stood for: of mutual understanding, peaceful negotiation, and violence as the last of all resorts. But it was more than that. Sisko’s betrayal was in such a way that it wasn’t clear that he had any other choice. In other words, it’s difficult to caricaturize his decisions as merely a character flaw but rather a greater systematic failure of his worldview. Sisko is the reactionary’s Captain not because he made the most ethical choices, but because he exposed the flaws underpinning the Left’s worldview. And once those flaws were laid bare for all to see, it was impossible to put the genie back in the bottle. Sure, we can continue like nothing had happened, and Star Trek did continue like nothing had happened, but it’s impossible to forget the problems that Star Trek had voiced against itself. And all the enemies of the Left needed to do was to repeat the Left’s own unanswered objections back to them.

@dsonoiki Maybe you should learn to code.

Today, I was fired from the Washington Post and my mentions are flooded with people telling me to practice saying “do you want fries with that?” I was a writer for the Post. I wrote stories that kept Trump up at night serving fries is beneath me
