@FlossingMeat @horvick MANY!

@horvick one has to wonder how many of those Deschutes county movers are high-income households that escaped from Multnomah county

The US Census has updated population estimates out today. Here are the total changes by Oregon county from 2020 to 2025.

@SaraEisen Hey Sara, have you figured out who pays the tariffs yet? Just checking. If you need enlightenment, as a 32 year importer of building products, I would be happy to educate you on the nuances of tariffs!

“I think the Iran war makes it a better chance in the long run — it’s probably riskier in the short run, because we don’t know the outcome of it,” Dimon told Palantir executive and former Congressman Mike Gallagher at a conference held in Washington, D.C.

@BBGreatMoments Grew up going to Candelstick! Many GREAT memories, but it was windy, cold and foggy, especially during night games!

What’s the worst ballpark, arena, or stadium you’ve ever been to?

@TheCinesthetic You cannot be serious. Tarantino has become a one trick pony. I was looking forward to its release and saw it the first week after. Did no one but myself predict during the viewing as to the ending? His outlandishly gory endings are old! Boring!

The climax of Once Upon a Time in Hollywood (2019) lands like a full release. The film spends hours pointing toward that night, then flips it in seconds. Cliff, the dog, Rick with the flamethrower, and the entire theater just breaking into cheers.

@jedirich_ @Bellagio Since table min’s have gone up, a $25 min pass line with max odds and minimum two come line with max odds tends to weed out many players on a cold table! Your point is great provided Vegas doesn’t like this level of action! Some old town locations allow $10 min, they are few!

Sure… Vegas is “dead.” Meanwhile, inside the Bellagio Conservatory — packed every day. Here’s the reality people don’t want to admit: Vegas didn’t die… it filtered. Post-Covid, they let anyone in just to survive. Cheap rooms, chaos, TikTok fights, people crying about $20 water in the desert. Now? That era’s over. Prices went up. Vibe cleaned up. And the people who can actually afford to be here showed back up. If you think Vegas is dead… you’re probably just not the target customer anymore. And judging by the crowds — they’re perfectly fine with that.

@SaraEisen Hey Sara….Have you figured out who pays the tariffs yet? Just checking…

We debate the Iran war

@emily_tweets 81 here in Colorado Springs….elevation 6200’. Crazy!

SoCal thinks it’s summer. 85° on the coast. 🫠🌡️

@SaraEisen Hey Sara….Have you figured out who pays the tariffs yet? Just checking…

On high gas prices and the Trump economy…

@KATUNews The aggressive corruption of PDX and actually the state govt are slowly coming to light! Money (taxes) received without proper oversight = corruption. We were told the homeless tax enacted Jan 1, 2021 would end homelessness in PDX!!! It has not been reduced. It has grown!

Portland has not effectively managed the Arts Tax since it was approved by voters in 2012, and it has failed to measure how the tax has improved access to arts education to elementary school students, especially under-served ones, according to an audit. katu.com/news/local/por…

@HistoryBoomer @jeffgiesea So the brothers are a couple? I don’t understand. They do seem pretty damn fem acting tough in disguise!

The manosphere is depressingly shallow. They sell a fantasy of eating steaks, driving fast cars (with a woman in a bikini), having big houses with stereos and a sauna (filled with women in bikinis), eating more steaks, and dying. No art, no life of the mind, just animal grunts.

@MrJerryOC Dude, as a husband of a leftist woman and three young ladies, two of which agree with their mom’s politics…I can honestly say you sounded like a sissy ass bitch on the one clip I heard from the podcast. I’m centrist right and we argue regularly! Quit being a pussy!

Now that I am a Political Pundit, I can say: This one hurt today. This post is not sponsored. Just still wearing St. Paddy's gear.

@MorganLBrennan @WaltDisneyWorld @CNBCWEX Cool to see the reality behind the scenes. Looks like a good time. Appreciate your work. Honest!

Got stuck in Florida with all of the crazy east coast weather. Bonus trip to @WaltDisneyWorld See you on @CNBCWEX tomorrow!

@RealJessica Commies are going to Commie!

New York Gov Kathy Hochul is begging wealthy people who have moved to Florida and Texas to come back to New York and pay taxes. 🤣 "I need people who are high net worth to support the generous social programs that we want to have in our state. Now, there are some patriotic millionaires who stepped up. OK, cut me the checks if you want to be supportive, but maybe the first step should be go down to Palm Beach and see who you can bring back home." "I have to look at the fact that we are in competition with other states who have less of a tax burden on their corporations and their individuals. And I would say remote work changed everything." "There were people who could only work in an office in Manhattan and work in New York state. And they were captives to our state, they were going to stay. We saw that that's not the case. Wall Street businesses looking at Texas, they're not going there because they have a nicer governor. They're going there because of the tax rate."

@kev5673 @babybullHinson @Atencio Yeah, that is the point. We have had that exact metaphor shoved down our throat for the past twenty years. It gets old!

@babybullHinson @Atencio It’s insane that you don’t think it was a metaphorical story with deeper meaning. You want coogler to write you some cliffs notes?

People who don't watch many movies love talking about how there were so few good movies last year. In reality '25 was one of the best years for movies I can remember. Here's my top ten for last year in no order (and I still have a few yet to see):

@Jkylebass Whether I agree with your point or not, you actually give solid points as to why. Unfortunately our administration made none of these. Hegseth does not have enough professionalism to merit the position he has. He was and has chosen to be a justifying administration spokesman.

The closure of the Strait of Hormuz is a serious escalation, no doubt, and it's affecting the front-end crude pricing…but pinning this solely on President Trump and Secretary Hegseth ignores the broader context and Iran's decades-long aggression. Iran has threatened to close the Strait for years as leverage against the West, especially in response to sanctions or military pressure. The U.S.-Israeli strikes starting February 28 weren't some reckless "bomb them into submission" gamble; they were a targeted response to Iran's rapid nuclear ☢️ advancements, missile programs, and proxy attacks across the region that have destabilized the Middle East for decades. Doing nothing would have allowed Iran to cross bright red lines - arming the madmen with nuclear ☢️ weapons or further entrenching Hezbollah and Houthis. "Trust me, bro" isn't the strategy; it's calculated deterrence backed by intelligence. As for Hegseth, calling him the "most incompetent" DoD head ever is partisan hyperbole. He's a combat vet with real experience, and under his leadership, we've seen precise strikes that have degraded Iran's capabilities without full invasion. We have also experienced record recruiting numbers under Sec Hegseth. He has brought physical fitness and lethality back to our fighting forces …while also dismissing the LBGTQ+ nonsense the democrats infected our forces with. The U.S. Navy is providing political risk insurance to maritime trade and offering escorts where feasible, while Trump is rallying an international coalition…including potential partners like France, Japan, South Korea, and the UK, to reopen the Strait with warships. This isn't isolationist folly; it's multilateral burden-sharing to counter a murderous rogue regime. Our service members aren't cannon fodder for "fools' failures"…they're defending global stability and U.S. interests against a murderous theocracy that's exported terror to the world for 45 years. The real failure would be continued democratic appeasement, letting Iran dictate terms. We've mitigated worse price shocks before, and with our world-leading domestic hydrocarbon production, we'll weather this. Blame the terrorist ‘leadership’ in Tehran, not those brave enough to finally hold them accountable.

@kimmie_c_ I’m sorry, but this isn’t all that great of a movie. Watchable for sure, but…cmon now. Jordan essentially played himself x2. A Hollywood actor transparently acting like he was in the Jim Crow south, same as everyone else. Something was missing in his role…didn’t buy it!

Um... it's kind of about white people. Remmick is the antagonist feeding on black culture. Annoying he was portrayed as Irish. It's not like Irish didn't have to deal with discrimination of their own 🙄 I mean fine. I liked the movie. Music was dope. But it's not a masterpiece.

@TheCinesthetic Casey Afleck for Manchester by the sea. He is a good actor, but winning that award over Denzel’s performance in Fences made no sense. A dynamic and nuanced performance loses to a guy who simply moped around the entire movie…just stupid!

Who is the worst actor to win an Oscar?

@BestMovieMom Scorsese chose to edit it himself which ended up as a bloated mess!

Hot take: The Irishman is one of Scorsese’s greatest films. The fact that it didn’t win a single Oscar still feels completely wrong.

@CopaExMachina @SukomoHatakeWF Agree. It was ok, but pretty transparent. Same message sent at least once every year in cinema.

@SukomoHatakeWF It's not that I don't like, it's objectively mediocre AT BEST.

Sinners is by far the most gaslit movie of all time. The critics have engaged in such a transparent campaign to manufacture its importance that it's hysterical. When it wins Best Picture (and it will win), it will expose how much of a farce the Academy Awards have become.

Let’s do something fun. Drop the name of any city or town in the world. I’ll reply with a photo or short video of it. Hidden gems. Famous icons. Tiny villages. Doesn’t matter. Let’s see where this goes... 👇
