"It feels so good to be an Islander" - Matthew Schaefer on the #Isles push to the playoffs and owing Ilya Sorokin a meal. @NYIslanders | @Shannon_Hogan

@jonkay @dstaples @bruce_arthur Instead of retweeting it Dave, why don't you step out and say something yourself? Be a man, be a role model stand up against it, instead of riding the backs of other

She’s talking about you, @bruce_arthur

@DannyWxo @jk_rowling It's not reducing, THAT'S WHAT IT IS IDIOT

@jk_rowling Reducing it to “two men boxing against women” leaves out important context. Further discussions are more productive when you acknowledge the full picture rather than boiling it down to a single, loaded statement.

Today's ruling by the IOC means a welcome return to fair sport for women and girls, but I'll never forget the scandal of Paris 2024, when people who consider themselves supremely virtuous and progressive publicly cheered on men punching women.

@sagathena @AltMarket1 @bestofstarwar Unlike yourself I live in reality, and truth is price we pay

@TopNotchBrain81 @AltMarket1 @bestofstarwar Tell yourself what you need to.

“I genuinely can't understand how the previous generation saw this in 1999 and said "this sucks".”

@AhGungSeto @damonimani Let me get this straight, you actually ask rock about this video? What an utter moron

Grok: **Objectively speaking, Trump was not trolling in the original interview—nor was this some calculated “multi-level circular plot dynamic.”** It was just classic, unfiltered Trump: genuine (if hyperbolic) praise mixed with his signature stream-of-consciousness tangents, delivered exactly as he thinks and speaks. Here’s the breakdown from the actual 50-second clip you linked (it’s an *edited* excerpt from the Oct 25, 2024 Rogan interview, not one continuous thought): - Trump starts with sincere admiration for Elon: “By the way, Elon is great. That guy is such a great guy. I think you’re a fan of Elon. He’s from a different planet.” (This matches what he said elsewhere in the full 3-hour podcast and throughout the 2024 campaign—Trump repeatedly called Musk brilliant, credited Starlink, and floated him for government efficiency roles.) - The clip then jumps (via editing) to a separate moment: Trump pivots hard to “I hate Obama. They all came to see me. They said Kamala’s a very low IQ person.” That abrupt cut is what makes it look bizarre and “what the hell was that about?”—exactly why the X post resurfaced it with that caption. In the real interview, these weren’t back-to-back sentences; Rogan’s podcast flows with long, meandering exchanges, and Trump’s mind jumps topics constantly (it’s his documented speaking pattern—Rogan even commented on it during/after the episode). ### Was he trolling? No. Trolling implies insincerity, sarcasm, or deliberate baiting for laughs/reaction while not meaning it. Trump meant every word: - He *does* think Elon is exceptionally smart and “from a different planet” (he’s said variations of this multiple times, including post-election). - He *does* hate Obama and has called Kamala Harris “low IQ” repeatedly for years (it’s one of his standard attack lines, not a one-off joke). This isn’t manipulation or 4D chess here—it’s Trump being Trump. He’s not reading from a script or winking at the camera. His style *is* nonlinear and associative (praise one ally → immediately contrast with enemies). Critics call it rambling or chaotic; fans call it authentic and strategic. Either way, the content reflects his real views, not performance art. The clip’s editing just amplifies how jarring his thought process can sound out of context—which is why it still gets shared in 2026 as a “WTF” moment. No hidden plot, no trolling, just the raw Donald Trump experience that 40+ million people tuned in for.

We never got answers on wth this was about

@mrfinch52 @islanders_takes Aren't they referencing the whole movie and not that just one scene???

@islanders_takes Duel of the Fates is easily one of the best scenes in Star Wars… I don’t think anyone has ever said it sucks 😭 One of the best duels and an incredible soundtrack.

This wasn't the part where people said that. Hope this helps.

@AltMarket1 @bestofstarwar We did, actually

@bestofstarwar We didn't. This is a made up narrative created in the past decade by people who mostly weren't there or weren't old enough to remember. The massive box office and the billions in merchandise sales debunk all these claims. Anyone who says otherwise is a liar.

@sagathena @AltMarket1 @bestofstarwar For the most part people didnt love this, actually

@AltMarket1 @bestofstarwar For the most part, people loved this. It was the gatekeeping toxic side of the fandom we had to make documentaries about that really did this. And they just got louder with an active internet.

@simmo1024 @bestofstarwar Shame that they couldn't figure this out on their own, which technically screams they are more cringe then jar jar, if they cant see jar jar is cringe

@bestofstarwar 1) Midichlorians 2) Pod Racing 3) Jar Jar binks. The lightsaber fights were superb though.

@bestofstarwar You must be brain dead or a 32 year old

Brentwood Police says no charges will be filed against actor Alan Ritchson after a neighbor claimed he attacked him, "After reviewing available evidence... Mr. Ritchson’s actions were found to be in self-defense."

@amato_mike I hope he destroys every possible aspect of hockey and his legacy in Toronto to provide as much positive karma to the islanders as possible

John Tavares scoring his 500th goal vs. John Tavares scoring the GWG to end the Leafs chances at a top-5 pick

@TheJoeySwoll @TheJoeySwoll i'm gonna be completely honest here I went 21 years without missing a day in the gym I got into a massive car accident Now, 2 years later, i'm starting all over, My 1st day back this week i used the same weight as this fella in the video What a shame to poke fun

It's NEVER ok to film and make fun of someone like this in the gym. I hope they kick you out! 😡

@BatukaCo Like... what?

Give your walls a sense of humor! The Vintage “Stink” Lisa Poster takes a classic painting and gives it a brilliantly funny twist everyone will notice.

Imagine going through all that strife in edmundton, then voluntarily choosing toronto after the leafs bounce marner, and john tavares being almost 40. If he were to make that decision consciously, then, he's a fucking moron and deserves nothing

The clock is officially ticking on the Connor McDavid era in Edmonton. Reports are surfacing that if the Oilers don't turn into a true Cup contender fast, he could be eyeing an exit by 2027. The wildest rumor? McDavid in Toronto. nhltraderumor.com/connor-mcdavid…

@NMercad Let me get this straight, so you think everything in life happens at a snap of a finger, right? Nothing requires patience? Everything happens at a whim?

Dog, gas at COSTCO is $3.77/$4.49 here. That’s the lowest it gets in our region and it’s over $1/g more than this time last year. What are we even talking about anymore? Who supports this?
