@karlykingsley It would have been disrespectful and embarrassing if it was any country but embarrassing and disrespecting their leader like that is FAR worse in Japanese culture. Of course MAGA wouldn’t understand that either.

MAGA not understanding why Trump’s Pearl Harbor “joke”wasn’t funny sums it up. It was a disrespectful, embarrassing display of ignorance on a global stage. Japan is appalled, our allies are mortified, the international press is mocking us. MAGA thinks this is “winning.” It’s not

@NYSportsfan63 @karlykingsley No, this is just how you cultists deflect and refuse to acknowledge very real and very valid criticism of Trump. It’s no different than “Orange man bad” which immediately reveals that you are incapable of objective or honest assessment.

@karlykingsley Problem is you folks are offended by the sun rising in the morning. Go away.

@ShonieCarter69 @MuchoTV2 Oh shut up with that pedantic nonsense. 🤣 NYC is slivers of sky through tall buildings (high rises, brownstones, projects and skyscrapers).

@EricJRacy @MuchoTV2 Doesn’t seem like you know much about NYC. The majority of the city doesn’t have skyscrapers.

It’s why LA makes me so mad. You had the chance to do New York with the best weather in the world but instead you created Mississauga

@JuvenileBluster @My_Marig0ld @AdamKinzinger Damn. I was about to write the same thing about my cat while he sits here and drools on me. Still smarter than Bessent.

@My_Marig0ld @AdamKinzinger My cat is smarter than Bessent.

YOU HAVE GOT TO BE JOKING We are lifting sanctions on IRAN. Tell me how this is going “as planned” again please MAGA?

@IronChevsky I’m as excited about 2021 as I have been about 2016. In fact, maybe more because a lot of wines are already open and expressive but seem to have the stuff to go the distance too (if you can wait).

Barolo 2021: Vietti Castiglione vs Vajra Bricco delle Viole. Both show the vintage’s DNA—open aromatics, firm structure. Tar, leather, dark fruit, roses in the background. Barolo is a paradox—pale, deceptively light, yet built on fierce, furry tannins and gutsy, leathery depth that with age dissolves into silk and roses (a ’78 Giacosa this week was the reminder). Vietti—historic Castiglione Falletto estate shaped by Alfredo Currado and later refined by Luca Currado—leans broader, more savory, slightly tar-driven. Vajra—family-run since the 1970s under Aldo Vajra—shows its high-altitude Bricco delle Viole in a more refined, polished frame. Two of my go-to producers. Not charming today—these need time. Some 2021s (Bovio) show early appeal, but the serious wines are built for the long haul.

@ellipsi_music Not just hi hats. All drums.

pssst… vary your hi hat velocity. makes it sound human

@GShaneMorris Claiming that people hated “The Village” because it didn’t have a twist / gimmick is like claiming that people hated “Water World” because it didn’t have enough water.

M. Night Shyamalan's "The Village." Eerie, soulful masterpiece brimming with symbolism and asking the deepest questions about human nature and the origin of evil. 10/10 score and acting. Hated for not being a twist gimmick or slasher (due largely to bad marketing).

@ProfitMoneyBeat It’s wild when people don’t respect or value other people’s work or livelihood but want other people to pay them for theirs. An account called “ProfitMoneyBeat” doing it just makes it even more ridiculous.

if your DAW is legit you the feds

@aa9dj44jfk @tomfgoodwin @pitdesi Or people

@tomfgoodwin @pitdesi Not with real trees and hills

Got served this listing for a house in the Hollywood Hills and it’s so gorgeous that it almost makes me want to live in a completely car-dependent area in LA Also - how is this so cheap? redf.in/wOqAVr

@itsR3LL I can’t remember if it was Acid Pro or Soundforge first but same era. The struggle (and fun) was real!

what's the first piece of music software you ever opened? mine was ACID Pro. i had no idea what i was doing and it was the best feeling ever.

@ripblackmamba @cnnbrk No, we absolutely do not support this war or sending our soldiers to fight it.

@cnnbrk Let’s get em boys 🇺🇸 the peoples support is with you 🇺🇸💪

Thousands more US Marines and sailors are being deployed to the Middle East, officials say. cnn.it/4lDM2Ce

@edthesoundman Be thankful for everything you have and everything you have achieved. Instead of looking at who has more, remember that there was a time when all you wanted was what you have now.

Drop some advice, even if you’re not the type 👇

@ThoughtCrimes80 Absolute scumbag behavior and according to these comments, there are a lot of them out there.

If you rack up a $1,800 dinner bill and tip $30, you’re a horrible person. 😒

@Bill_m10 @friendsofdoge @realDailyWire We all know the nonsense talking points you have been fed. You cultists regurgitate them non stop. You don’t need to keep at it and they won’t magically become true if you do.

@EricJRacy @friendsofdoge @realDailyWire Literally everything about this tweet describes the Democratic Party to a T lol. Illegal immigration and the last administrations inability to do anything productive brought America to its lowest point in almost a century. Stop it.

This might actually be Trump's funniest moment 😂 Japanese Reporter: Why didn't you tell us before you struck Iran? Trump: "Why didn't you tell me about Pearl Harbor?" 💀🔥😂

@MoutonIsAClaret And like the tariff debacle, we are destroying ourselves and dragging the rest of the world down with us for no good reason. It’s all self inflicted insanity.

In 1973, we had an oil crisis. That crisis was linked to oil production from the Gulf states. A three-day week and blackouts were introduced. Contrary to what you may hear, those times are likely to return. What does this mean today? I find it very concerning. Everything we do in terms of banking, shopping, streaming, internet access, business trading could also be subject to blackouts. How does that equate to data centers, which businesses are dependent on? It’s quite hard to believe now, because it all feels constant, but everything we do depends on power generated from oil and gas.

@sigma485849 @friendsofdoge @realDailyWire This is why it’s important to actually understand other cultures when practicing diplomacy. You clearly don’t know anything about the Japanese.

@friendsofdoge @realDailyWire A small joke isn't going to ruin a real relationship

@friendsofdoge @realDailyWire These morons just clap like seals as he systematically destroys our country. It’s unbelievable that it isn’t being destroyed by another superpower but by pure ignorance, stupidity and an anti-American cult that cheers it on.

You MAGA retards dont know jack shit about being diplomatic. If you know anything about Japan this is a really bad look. She actually liked Trump and he humiliated her on live TV. Why does this guy have to always ruin our relationships with allies? Just to provide entertainment to you low IQ MAGA retards?

@klwines I was just popping in to pick up the Marcarini auction bottles… 👀 whoops 😬

@EricJRacy Sweet lineup!

Another great haul from @klwines highlighting just how insane the QPR from Piedmont is! Amazing wines without breaking the bank. I’m excited to try these 2016 Discovery series Barolos and maybe even find out who the producer is when I cut the foil 👀 #piedmont #barolo #barbaresco

@IronChevsky Absolutely incredible lineup! I’m extremely jealous but thank you so much for taking the time to share.

There’s something deeply emotional about great wines at full maturity — when structure has fully resolved into silk, when everything turns seamless, suave, almost other-worldly… even if the flavors themselves are fragile and fleeting. This wasn’t just an “old wines” dinner — it was a study in how structure resolves. The best wines didn’t show more flavor — they showed less friction. Many great regions can achieve this — Burgundy, Bordeaux, Rhône, Rioja, even Aglianico — but on this night, Nebbiolo stood out, with Rioja (my favorite Spanish region) not far behind. Quick highlights for me: Giacosa Barolo Villero 1978, Conterno Barolo 1969, Flaccianello 2006, and Viña Monty Gran Reserva 1970 — all showing that rare combination of completeness, texture, and effortless balance. Dinner at the French Club, SF. Classic setting, excellent food, serious bottles. Theme: 2016 and older, non-France / non-USA. Piedmont led. Giacosa Barolo Villero 1978 (red label) — from a great Nebbiolo vintage and a structured Castiglione Falletto cru. Wine of the night — fully resolved, perfectly balanced. Conterno Barolo 1969 — traditional Serralunga (likely early Francia sourcing). Darker, firmer, more powerful. Giacosa Barbaresco Rabajà 2001 — benchmark site and vintage; still structured but precise. Giacosa Barolo Le Rocche 2004 (magnum) — classic year, but still very young in magnum. Gaja Barbaresco & Sorì Tildìn 1985 — excellent, more polished, slightly less pure. Cavallotto 2010 — good but not ready. Marchesi di Barolo 61/67 — powerful but less refined. Central Italy showed range. Flaccianello 2006 (Fontodi) — from Panzano’s Conca d’Oro. 2006 a strong vintage; initially structured, but with air turned silky and complete. A reminder Sangiovese can age when done right. Paolo Bea Pagliaro 2010 — benchmark Umbrian producer. Still young, long arc, already showing depth and identity. Sassicaia 2014 — classic, balanced, but didn’t stand out here. Ornellaia 2003 — rich, hot vintage, a bit heavy. Dal Forno Valpolicella 2000 — powerful yet pure, dark and cocoa-driven. Whites were excellent and intellectually engaging. Valentini 2016, LdH Blanco 2012, Keller 2014, Dönnhoff 2011, Schmitt-Wagner 2001 — all serious wines. But in the end, the reds still ruled. Sparkling: Ca’ del Bosco Annamaria Clementi 2015 — rich, impressive, more power than precision. Other highlights: Creation Chardonnay 2016 (Hemel-en-Aarde) — cool-climate, ocean-influenced, precise and textured. A real eye-opener. Emidio Pepe 2003 — good, but didn’t justify the hype on this night. Rioja showed beautifully — and differently: Viña Monty Gran Reserva 1970 (Montecillo) — silky, harmonious, fully resolved. Bordón Gran Reserva Especial 1970 — fresher, more energetic, less charming but very alive. Tons more on the table I didn’t even get to.
