I love this account. I secretly hope it’s run by a 60 something Jewish grandmother from the Hasidic part of Brooklyn.

Senator fucking idiot, Your tweet is not a policy critique...it is a masterclass in lethal stupidity, the kind that disarms the Republic while you posture as its guardian. Let this sink in with the cold precision your ignorance so richly deserves: No civilian in these United States can buy an “assault rifle.” Full fucking stop. An assault rifle, by the very definition forged in military ordnance manuals and upheld in federal statute, is a selective-fire weapon...capable of semi-automatic and fully automatic fire...chambered in an intermediate cartridge, with a detachable magazine. Think military-issue AK-47s or M4 carbines. These are not sporting arms; they are crew-served instruments of war. Since the Hughes Amendment of 1986, new ones cannot be manufactured or transferred to civilians at all. Pre-1986 examples exist only in the vaults of Class III NFA collectors who have endured years of ATF scrutiny, $200 tax stamps, fingerprints, photographs, local law-enforcement sign-off, and price tags that dwarf most mortgages. The military owns them. Period. You do not. I do not. Your staffers with their taxpayer-funded security details do not. What Americans can purchase...after clearing the National Instant Criminal Background Check System, completing ATF Form 4473 under penalty of perjury, and often enduring state-mandated waiting periods, photo ID, and additional permitting...are semi-automatic rifles. AR-15 platforms. AK-pattern variants shorn of their full-auto sear. These are constitutionally protected modern sporting arms, not “assault rifles,” any more than a Glock is a submachine gun. The background check already verifies you are not a prohibited person...felon, fugitive, domestic abuser, adjudicated mental defective, or illegal alien. Non-citizens face even tighter statutory chokeholds under 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(5). The transaction is instantaneous only because the federal government already knows who you are. Your grotesque lie...that requiring documentary proof of citizenship to register to vote is somehow “harder” than acquiring a select-fire battlefield rifle...collapses under the weight of its own retardation. The SAVE Act demands what every legitimate voter already possesses: a birth certificate, passport, or naturalization papers. It exempts existing registered citizens. It merely closes the barn door your party has spent decades leaving wide open to foreign interference. Meanwhile, gun buyers already navigate a federal gauntlet you deliberately mischaracterize as a stroll through Walmart. You are not confused, Senator. You are contemptuous. Contemptuous of the English language, of ballistic reality, of the Second Amendment, and of the very citizens you swore to serve. This is not “advocacy.” It is sedition wrapped in Hawaiian floral print. The Republic is done entertaining your performative illiteracy. The next time you feel the urge to lecture Americans on firearms while you yourself could not field-strip a bolt-action .22, remember this: real patriots know the difference between a machine gun and a meme. You do not. And that ignorance is no longer harmless...it is lethal. 🗡️💀🗡️

@Ellieinspace Yikes! Hopefully nothing too serious. Big shame that they don't give exact details though. Definitely in public interest to know what kind of medical issues can happen in space.

This is a developing situation. NASA is considering a rare early return of Crew-11 after canceling a planned ISS spacewalk due to an unspecified medical issue with one astronaut. The crew member is stable, but the EVA — slated for Zena Cardman and Mike Fincke — was scrubbed. That spacewalk would’ve tied a career EVA record for Fincke. NASA says all options are on the table. 👀🚀

@Vern_Funquist Seeing a Goodman article like this makes me wish for some sort of reverse/anti click to register my disgust at the obvious clickbait.

@CFBNerds Situation will presumably only get worse as schools are canceling major out of conference games in reaction to the CFP committee comparing losses and expanding in conference schedules.

Quoting this here for posterity's sake. I think we're going to discover that the ratings were really good through the year at ranking teams within a given conference, but we're probably also going to find that some conferences were over/undervalued. x.com/PDawg206/statu…

Computer ratings and models (incl ours) may prove pretty bad this postseason in college football. In perfectly isolated schedules, ratings show how good you are only relative to your own conf average. In the past, recruiting/priors could compensate, but the portal broke that.

I wonder if CFB has a problem in that there are so many teams that there could be sub-groups of teams with schedules that don’t interact much with each other. The top three highest rated teams in the list are from the Big 10. Is it possible we basically have 2 or more populations in the data with divergent metrics? Meaning a FEI of 1.73 with a Big 10 schedule is not the same as 1.73 with an SEC schedule?

Something we’re seeing in our own model and elsewhere: Indiana is projected a MUCH larger favorite (2+ scores) in computers than the current 1 score Vegas line. This suggests Vegas flagging a scaling issue, or the big SOS difference making the computer ratings inaccurate.

FEI ratings and supporting metrics are updated through Week 17 (last week's bowls and CFP 1st Round games): bcftoys.com/2025-fei Game projections for this week's bowls: bcftoys.com/2025-gp

This may sound strange but congratulations to Oklahoma and Sooners fans on a great season. You guys got us 2 of 3 and tonight was a tough game in a tough atmosphere. And I didn't see any social media whining when you lost either.

Marcel Reed was absolutely dreadful the last two games. Honestly not sure how you can trust him to win anything of substance for A&M next year. The frustrating thing is he’s done enough that replacing him is tough. Tough place to be as a program

@golfschtick @rtraustin_ I feel like this win ticked the season into the “making improvements from last year” column. A loss and this year’s results would’ve felt pretty similar to last year.

@ClintRLamb In the postgame coverage Holly Rowe reported via Chris Fowler that Red Morgan and Tim Keenan could’ve come back into the game if needed.

@BrooksAustinBA The real point is that Alabama, ND and Miami was all significantly better than Tulane and JMU. Ridiculous situation that should change.

I think Notre Dame is better than Miami and Alabama. Willing to take the backlash in the comments for believing it.
