@HeatherMcDonald Idk if this is rage bait but this is so dumb. He’s not going to leave her alone to pilot his untethered multimillion dollar catamaran or whatever. That would be scary and unfair and unlikely to end well for anyone. Also she probably swam like 20 feet

Dave Portnoy has a new, young, hot girlfriend 🔥. What are your thoughts on this age gap? 💔🍿 #daveportnoy #relationship #couple #hollywood #dating

@hanslorei Yes. This often happens automatically for people with a really specific perspective

@rankintweets All water bottles are disgusting traps for mold. There’s nothing wrong with a glass of water

Every 3 years a new water bottle brand completely oneshots middle class white women like clockwork

@paulg Shout out to Mr 55/59 🫡

A Brown professor gave his students a take-home midterm exam. After suspecting many cheated using AI, he made the final in-person. The orange dots are the midterm scores and the gray dots are the final scores. Looks like all but 3 cheated on the midterm.

@lisavsworld They also listen to the aunt/nanny/rando store clerk more in situations like this. Sometimes that alone can make a big difference

"I will not allow you to jump on the couch." As a speech-language pathologist who works with very young children for a living, this kind of language is insufferable. Simply because I will see parents use it with 3 and 4 year olds who do not have the ability to pick up on the nuance of your language. I am not opposed to treating children with respect and explaining consequences to their actions, but you cannot rattle off all of this info to a small child and expect them to grasp anything of what you're saying. You need nice short sentences with direct language. Not a paragraph of grammatically complex information. "Do not jump on the couch. You are hurting the couch. If you jump on the couch again, you're in trouble. Do you understand?" I did a very similar thing with my second youngest nephew who was 3 years old at the time of this story. We were at the pool together and he was standing over the deep end, kicking things into the pool. The situation was dangerous as he could have easily lost balance, fallen into the pool, and possibly hit his head in the process. My brother had been struggling to get him to follow directions all day... mostly because he uses this type of language with him. I put a stop to it immediately. This is what I did: "Hey! T------. Look at me." *Gestures to eyes.* "Do not kick the toys. It is dangerous. You will get hurt. Now, you can stay here and not kick the toys... OR you can pick up the toy, and go play with it over there with your dad." My nephew, T----- silently picked up his toy and carried it over to his dad. It's that simple.

I once left a single raw chicken filet in the trash and forgot to take it out before leaving town for the weekend and almost had to renovate my kitchen due to the smell

Good lord one of those warehouses that got burned down in LA (most likely by communist activists) turns out was one of the largest cold storage warehouses on the west coast, and contained 65 million lbs of raw meat.... Some of which was roasted, but most of which is now sitting UNREFRIGERATED in the LA heat... Fire Department estimates 1700 semi trucks to remove it People are saying this might be the largest ecological disaster in American history.... what do you do with 65 MILLION POUNDS of rotten meat?

Shaw, Drake, MJ et al are the spiritual heirs of the Bourbon kings and other French chateau builders. Hard to overstate how ambitious a 76,000 square foot house is. You really don’t see that very often nowadays regardless of how rich someone is.

@cremieuxrecueil Rumpelstitskin ass company

Neat idea: Free egg freezing, but the company keeps half.

Yes many people do not understand the necessary/sufficient distinction

@zeta_globin Can someone just tell me what the dreams were about

holy shit how was this not used to teach the pauli exclusion principle

A couple of Germans on a road trip have done more to inspire patriotism ahead of America’s 250th anniversary than the entirety of the U.S. government.

@parallelecinico @SkySportBasket @nyknicks @joshhart Hell yeah Fabio!!!!

Ciao ragazzi, quella che voglio raccontarvi è una follia. Una follia che mi ha portato ad essere al Madison Square Garden ad assistere ad una delle partite più incredibili della storia: gara 4 tra Knicks e Spurs. Mi chiamo Fabio, sono di Bologna, e martedì sera ero a spasso con la mia ragazza. Sono da sempre un tifoso Knicks, e più passeggiavamo col nostro cane “Brooklyn” (siamo grandi amanti di New York), più aumentava la mia curiosità di controllare l’andamento dei prezzi folli del Madison… Mi sono detto “Se riesco a trovarli in resell sotto i 4000 dollari, lo compro”. Faccio una premessa: ho purtroppo avuto a che fare con un delicato problema di salute nella mia vita. Questo mi ha dato la possibilità di vedere il presente il futuro in modo diverso. Passano le ore e trovo un biglietto a 3900 dollari. Ho chiuso gli occhi, e l’ho comprato. Non dico nulla alla mia ragazza. Andiamo a casa e accendo il computer. Trovo un volo da Roma. Prima di dormire trovo il coraggio di dirglielo. “Ho la sveglia tra quattro ore, vado a New York a vedere gara 4…”. Gelo. Poi mi abbraccia e mi dice “Goditela”. Ed eccomi qui, testimone della più grande rimonta nella storia delle Finals, di un clima pazzesco, di una città che esplode di passione per il basket, di una due giorni che non dimenticherò mai. Ho avuto un grave problema cardiaco 5 anni fa. Ho comprato la canotta di Hart, perché il suo nome mi ricorda quel cuore che è stato croce e delizia nella mia vita. Salterò le vacanze, dovrò fare delle rinunce, ma sono felice di aver fatto questa follia. (Fabio Augeri) @SkySportBasket @nyknicks @joshhart

It’s SO sad we aren’t getting mayor adams knicks commentary

@RoKhanna @grahamformaine You absolute fool!

I am supporting @grahamformaine today because of his passion for opposing war. An honest conversation about the human toll and his journey.

@Bill8082 @revhannahking Bill do you think kids should wear life jackets even if they can swim well? I feel like it can’t hurt

@revhannahking Born and raised in Hawaii and an avid waterman, I've saved a few people and seen a few not make it. The ocean is a powerful source of energy. Not like swimming in a pool!

My sons almost drowned in a riptide at the beach last week. My husband and I alone could not save them. A courageous, merciful stranger got us all to shore. God shows his face in many ways.

@MikeBeauvais @brianschatz Mike Bloomberg erasure

Courtside at MSG is funny because it’s like beloved former Knicks star from the ‘90s next to an insanely famous actor next to the CEO of a company that turns orphans into AI data center liquid coolant.

@FreddyLA7 Freddy I mean this with all sincerity you need to be really carefully in summer thunderstorms in the South. There is nothing comparable in Europe. They are biblical. Sometimes the rain is so bad you have to stop driving.

We got hit by a severe rainstorm while on top. And I’m up here wearing slides and socks because my shoes got completely soaked during our river tubing trip fuck😭😭

@FreeBeacon Weird that they say this and then sort of tried to grow him in a vat

Graham Platner was recruited to run for Senate by a pair of socialist political operatives, Daniel Moraff and Leanne Fan, who determined that another prospective candidate had “a skeleton in the closet.” The Wall Street Journal published a rare interview with the duo on Sunday who revealed they paid “a whole chunk of money” to vet Platner but managed to turn up neither his Nazi ink nor many of his Reddit posts.

It’s because they are all people at the lower end of upper/upper middle class and as a result think they are oppressed; they are the worst off of their cohort. Being an architect’s child in westchester doesn’t make you poor it just makes you feel poor. But they then identify with actual subjugated people. They authentically believe they have the most in common with actual oppressed people. They may even feel some kind of inverted noblesse oblige since they are at the top of the oppressed class as they see it, not the bottom of the privileged class. They don’t outgrow this belief because they are also low horsepower intellectually and low in conscientiousness/self awareness. I think this is the most charitable explanation in some ways but also the most likely. I don’t think all of them know they are lying, but it doesn’t excuse it

If AOC really grew up in the Bronx in a working class family and went to say, CUNY, instead of her father being an architect, growing up in Westchester, and going to BU, it would be a better story. If Platner really was a salt-of-the-earth working class type guy, had a family he was raising, had a real, profitable aquaculture business, and had some organic class interests that he translated into lib politics, it would be a better story. I could go on, but none of this stuff feels real. It comes off as staged and contrived and I think a lot of people get that. No one who is paying attention thinks these politics have an honest referent and it’s unclear why the lib left can’t articulate itself ideologically in a transparent way without the subterfuge and artifice.
