nytimes.comWhy Anger About Data Centers and Energy Prices May Not Swing Votes (Gift Article)In Ohio, many voters say their frustration about the increase in electricity and fuel prices and the growth of data centers won’t influence whom they vote for.

Never forget that Turkiye bought Eric Adams for $50,000 and some business class air tickets. Bargain!

thinking about how i wasted all this money on clothes when i could have invested this money in an index fund and eventually bought a senator like elon musk

The top quote in the ESPN story about Boone is from Aaron Judge, and that tells you everything you need to know about the #Yankees ... the monkeys are running the circus. Where's Cashman? Where's Hal? And really, where are GEORGE Steinbrenner and Billy Martin when you need 'em?!?

It is a mystery to me why some people dubbed Marco Rubio as the one sane, thoughtful and reasonable person in the Trump admin despite not a shred of demonstrable objective evidence to support that position since the day he has been in office.

Trump was given the inaugural prize last December but he could be the only recipient with a FIFA committee now reviewing the award. 🤡🤡🤡

www.nytimes.com/2026/10/08/b... "Finding champagne in Manhattan before 10 a.m. was not easy, but the New Directions president and publisher Barbara Epler managed to procure two bottles on her way to the office as she absorbed the news." Not easy??? Tell me you're not trying without telling me ...

Russell Westbrook has said he wants to participate in the torch relay in the run-up to the 2028 Olympic Games, which is cool. But who should light the torch in the stadium? My vote: Tommie Smith and John Carlos. Bring it full circle. ✊

“We’ve got to be more complete offensively, defensively, pitching,” Boone said. “We did really good things this year, but ultimately not good enough to beat a really good Rays team.” Boone is like Crash Davis with the nonsense that comes out of his mouth. More complete PITCHING???

Here's The New York Times (daily global newsletter) with yet another legacy media "appears to say". I guess if you're deaf and your lip-reading skills are not good, "appears to say" would be appropriate. Otherwise, ridiculous (and typical) sane-washing.

Aaron Boone showing how little he knows about recovering from injury and physiotherapy. You're not "building endurance" to any significant extent in a couple of days. I'll be shocked if Judge plays in the post-season, and his absence is on Boone (and Judge himself, but Boone is the manager).

LOL, the Trump administration files an ethics complaint ...

Just warriors being let down by REMFers, same as it ever was.

Hegseth: "It's worth saying again so the fake news understands it. We are no longer the woke department or the weak department. Simple translation of that -- no fatties no trannies no beardos no weirdos no wimps no radicals. Just warriors."

US Ambassador to Greece has to be one of the greatest jobs you can get. You can represent your country in a beautiful place with great people and amazing food. But Guilfoyle had to go straight to plotting, scheming, and generating controversy. Because of course she did.

This poster is not completely correct. In 2022, Xi Jinping had Hu Jintao, one of his predecessors, publicly removed from the National Party Congress. In Chinese there's an expression for what he did: kill the chicken to scare the monkeys. And Trump has scared plenty of GOP monkeys.

Fuck "defies." That sounds almost heroic and ennobled, like some sort of none-shall-pass defense of the realm. In a presumed nation of laws, when you ignore the order of a court, you VIOLATE that order and place yourself outside ot the law and in opposition to the premise of the republic itself.

Zelenskyy: "For first time in Russia’s history, we now hear that its oil industry is running on fumes. Our target is Russia’s ability to finance this war, to drag it out, to make it more brutal & destructive. Russia’s finances & Russia’s production are what must be stopped if Putin is to be stopped”
