I did not recall that about Candace Owens, but it does not surprise me.

You call them scrubs, but Sully could fly man.

Blazers!!!!

Blazers!!!

This is too much 😬

It allows the schools to pull from their endowments. Schools can't just withdraw from the endowments, they have to be allocated to expenses. So you provide scholarships to cover the fees and expenses.

I thought it was most well known for Jim Byrnes nowadays. *swordfight*beheading*quickening*

I mean, you must be, because those were the millions who didn't see the wage increases. Or you're delusional. It's the or the other.

Except what you're talking about didn't happen. Unless you're talking about the small business owners who took pay cuts or stagnant profits to cover the cost of the raises the provided to the employees they wanted to keep.

Where were you talking about facts? People are getting raises, it's happening in jobs of all varieties and wages rates. And often, in the current economy, if they're not getting raises they're leaving for other jobs that pay more.

How dare you expect people to post on BlueSky with logic and a basic understanding of the topic they're railing on about. Don't you know that they're suffering in their imagined plight! Facts have no place here.

Sincerely, I don't think they know what they mean. To humor the concept that it isn't coded language for racism, much of what they believe to be Western culture originated from cultures outside that purview. Country music as a prime example.

I mean, there were the Nalgene kids, but they were the crunchy, granola types.

The chaos gods are basically all variants of Dobby.

Both Trump administrations have put to the forefront the obscure and the nerdy. From government departments, government processes and procedures, and international relations. The average person now has opinions on academic level issues. It's incredible.

Both gunned down in their primes.

Own it, but haven't gotten to it yet ☹️ it's definitely cutting in line on my bookshelf though. Autonomous was one of the greatest speculative fiction novels I've ever read.

Feels like a novel is hidden in there somewhere. At least I know I'd buy it.

Honestly, it might be the best political ad I've ever seen. Not the most effective, but most entertaining.

As if the line between reality and satire hasn't been blurred enough, the 2026 Texas primary gave us this ad. A work of art.

The lack of a 30 for 30 will never be forgiven, but I'll take this in the meantime.

There's a lot of homoeroticism in LeCarre

This is why I respect you, you stand with purpose and reason on your beliefs. Not simply on your beliefs.

Hot but true take: there are no bad fruits, just bad varietals.

The exception to that rule is coconut.

I mean, you can do the roadside.

But if you want buckets of triple crown, black diamond, natches, and obsidian varietals alongside boysenberries, marionberries, loganberries, and tayberries, plus buckets of the various raspberry varietals, you go to a farm.

You're eating the wrong variety. Come to the PNW and eat them fresh from a berry farm. You'll never want grocery store blackberries again

Basically what's happened in PDX.

You mean monomaniacat.

I'm with you. Truly the take more people need to have with Will and others in general, not everyone needs to be understood as a binary concept, we're complex and not simple.

@joshtpm.bsky.social has been reporting this for months now.

But truthfully, I'm excited by this. A great item to run on, Lutnick stole your tariff refund!
