@ChuckWendig @MikeDrucker Bruce Wayne crying over his parents while repeating “daddy would you like some sausage” through the sobs.

I’m sorry, I was reliably told this was going to be privately funded.

@Bob4Florida @_IamtheManager @kennewickmike He is the only true pf on that roster so the sim played him 47 minutes.

@_IamtheManager @kennewickmike Playing Larry for only 17 minutes off the bench is certainly a choice. And in no version of reality is Karl Malone winning player of the game with all these players

Wild story: A man in Kentucky laughed so hard at a botched Younghoe Koo FG last season that it triggered a seizure, sending him to the hospital, where doctors discovered a tennis-ball-sized brain tumor. The tumor was removed and was deemed not cancerous. The man believes that missed kick saved his life. Full story here: apnews.com/article/kentuc…

The President has repeatedly said the ballroom is fully paid for already by private donations, and by himself

Am I the only one who remembers a year ago when a bunch of teenagers said we had to cut the funding to like Sesame Street and AIDS prevention because we were on the verge of financial collapse? Did we all just imagine that?

The Hilton donated the ~2600 dinners that went unserved at WHCD. They freeze dried the steak and lobster for longer shelf life before giving them to 2 shelters for abused women and children. HUGE thank you to the staff that worked through the night under terrible circumstances.

JD Vance compared Trump to Hitler.

He knew the accusations were coming and wanted that win to be cleaaaaaaaannnn

In 2025, Sabastian Sawe asked the AIU to test him as frequently as possible. He underwent 25 tests in the build-up to the Berlin Marathon, blood and urine, around 2–3 times per week, including days where he was tested twice. He maintained that same approach into 2026. Now, he has broken the Marathon World Record, clocking 1:59:30 in London. Officially the first man to go sub-2 in the marathon.

Nike spent ten years trying to break the 2-hour marathon. They named a project after it. They built special shoes. They paid the greatest marathoner alive to chase it. Yesterday, a Kenyan runner finally did it in 1:59:30, wearing Adidas. Sabastian Sawe used to be a pacemaker. A pacemaker is the kind of runner you hire to set the speed for the first few miles of a race and then drop out before the finish. In January 2022, Sawe got booked to do exactly that at a half-marathon in Spain. He'd never raced more than three miles in his life. He stayed in for the full 13 and won the whole thing. Adidas signed him not long after. Four years later, he became the first human ever to run an official marathon under 2 hours. Nike, meanwhile, started this whole project in 2016 with a public goal called "Breaking2." They paid for the shoes, the pacemakers, the science labs, and Eliud Kipchoge himself. Kipchoge ran 1:59:40 in Vienna in 2019, but the event was a closed-course exhibition with rotating pacemakers and a pace car projecting a green laser line onto the road. The sport's governing body never recognized it as a real race. It didn't count. Then Nike's running business cratered. Digital sales fell 26% in one quarter. Their share of footwear sold at Dick's Sporting Goods went from 39% to 32% in five months. On Running grew from $330 million to $1.8 billion between 2020 and 2025. Hoka nearly quadrupled. Roger Federer left Nike for On. Nike's board fired the CEO in October 2024. Adidas spent the same period building a better shoe. The new Adizero Adios Pro Evo 3 took three years to develop. It weighs 97 grams, about 3.4 ounces, lighter than a deck of cards. A Wall Street Journal-cited study found that wearing a shoe 3.5 ounces lighter saves a runner around 57 seconds across a marathon. Sawe beat the third-place finisher by 58 seconds. Adidas also did something Nike never did for Kipchoge. They wrote a $50,000 check to the official anti-doping body for track and field, asking it to test Sawe more aggressively than any other runner alive. He got tested 25 times in the two months before last year's Berlin Marathon, and Adidas signed up to fund this for the length of his contract. The logic: the moment Sawe ran a marathon this fast, the world was going to ask if he cheated, especially after his countrywoman Ruth Chepngetich got a 3-year doping ban in 2025. Adidas got out ahead of it. The shoe retails at $500 and is barely available. Adidas's Adizero shoes won half of all major marathon races in 2024. Yesterday in London, four of the top five finishers wore the same Adidas shoe. Yomif Kejelcha crossed the line 11 seconds after Sawe and also broke 2 hours. The top three runners all beat the previous world record. Nike's only response was an Instagram post. Three sentences long: "The clock has been reset. There is no finish line." That was their entire public reaction to losing a 10-year moonshot to their biggest rival.

Karoline Leavitt compares free-speaking Americans who question and criticize their government to an attempted presidential assassin. They’re coming for free speech.

Trying to figure out where you went wrong building that IKEA cupboard

If you’ve ever wondered why K** and P*el* don’t work together anymore, well, watch the next video in this thread.

I’m glad I got to this payoff because acting like you’re having an allergic reaction to a plant until someone points out it’s fake and then acting like nothing happened is insane and hilarious

I realize that laws don't matter anymore, but for me if you are going to cover Florida redistricting, you must lead with the fact that whatever is being proposed here is explicitly prohibited by the state constitution. What are we even doing here.

This is a crazy outcome for a human rights lawyer appointed by the UN to do her job

Life is a marathon, not a sprint *pulls out calculator and divides 1:59:30 by 26.2* alright, you know what, life might be multiple things simultaneously

WHAT?!... DOJ Lawyer Sarah M. Harris who is arguing on behalf of the Trump Admin tomorrow in favor of Monsanto Bayer - also used to clerk for Justice Clarence Thomas (who used to work for Monsanto). And also worked on Bayer Monsanto cases at her previous lawfirm. Is this case rigged from the start?fedsoc.org/bio/sarah-harr…

> Republicans steal 14 Congressional seats by brutally gerrymandering mid-cycle. > Democrats respond with temporary maps and the consent of the people to take 9 back. Democrats also propose legislation to ban gerrymandering federally. The media: Both sides are bad!!!

Trump is now trying to pass the FISA spying act, using his 'assassination attempt' as 'evidence' it is needed. The act will allow the US (and Palantir) to collect unlimited information on any non-US national, anywhere in the world without a warrant OR any reason to do so.
