Large land-dwelling mammal with full use of opposable thumbs & an innate ability to use tools. TS/EFG are fake stats used by lying grifters

To the folks who wait 15 minutes to enter an auction mock, make it to a room full of actual humans, and then bid $187 on Bronny James with the second nomination.... Y'all on some extra evil shit and I hope y'all drown in a pile of loose dicks for several centuries.

It's official, another Dubs championship incoming 💪😤

W.E.B. Du Bois on Robert E. Lee: “Either he knew what slavery meant when he helped maim and murder thousands in its defense, or he did not. If he did not he was a fool. If he did, Robert Lee was a traitor and a rebel–not indeed to his country, but to humanity and humanity’s God.”

"I could explain Hasan Piker’s politics to you, but that’s entirely irrelevant. The bold, all caps, underlined point is that a high profile, US-born American citizen was detained on Sunday by US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) for, it would seem, the crime of speech."

This is why TS/EFG are dumb stats that don't help anyone understand what is going on. In this example, it's particularly egregious to invoke TS, as that stat involves FT in the calculation, of which, Buddy attempted and made zero. Why not just say he only missed three shots the entire game?

Buddy Hield had a true shooting percentage of 110% on Sunday, the highest ever by a player with 30+ points in a Game 7. 🤯 Best true shooting percentage with 30+ points in a Game 7: stathead.com/tiny/mW6xM

We are living through an authoritarian/fascist regime. The rest of the world sees it and is acting accordingly, while most Americans are more concerned about the price of eggs. I remain convinced there is a unique evil/dumbness to our country.

🚨A U.S. born citizen was arrested in Florida for entering the state as an “unauthorized alien.” His mother and a community advocate showed his birth certificate during a hearing in Leon County. The judge said she had no authority to release him.

If this means a democratic administration could rescind tax-exempt status from Liberty University, I'm all for it. I mean, fuck these elitists amirite?

Didn't think this was possible. Perhaps a positive sign for Wemby?

AOC: I saw on Fox, Jeanine Pirro says that they found so many babies and two year olds and four year olds receiving social security. I got a notice for you Jeanine Pirro: those babies receive social security because their parents died. That’s not a waste. That’s humanity. That’s America.

Lmao, they had a Finals team before changing ownership. Remember all the fluff that came out about Matt Ishbia when he bought the club? This guy might actually be worse than Dolan 😂😂😂

FROM SHAMS: ESPN story on the Suns firing coach Mike Budenholzer after a failed season with the highest payroll in NBA history – beginning a summer of major changes that will include working with Kevin Durant and his business partner Rich Kleiman on a trade:

JJ Redick on MIP: “I hate that award because they’ve failed to define it. The spirit of it has been taken out of whack. Just call it the high draft pick who’s on a max contract and now is an All-Star. Just call it that award. Who’s that guy? Because that’s what it’s become.”

But there's no difference between Democrats and Republicans amirite?

Hundreds of international students have just received an email telling them their visas have been revoked. The ‘justification’ is campus activism or social media posts. timesofindia.indiatimes.com/world/us/hun...
