I wrote this about Santos and Menendez, but relevant again: "The Senate [or House], by constitutional design, is not dependent on the actions of the executive and judicial branches to fix the Senate’s problems. Senators have both the right and the obligation to judge the evidence for themselves"
May Victor Orbán simply be the first in a string of countries engaging in overdue housecleaning by kicking their authoritarian leaders to the curb.
A few years ago, I finally decided to be honest with myself: I just don't like IPAs much. So I quit trying. Just give me a nice clean light pilsner, a day beer, a post-mowing-the-lawn beer, a hydrating beer, an adjacent-to-water beer. I am what I am.
My hatred is infinite.

Pope Leo XIV was seen spinning a basketball on his finger in Saint Peter's Square during a visit from the US exhibition basketball crew, the Harlem Globetrotters. One of the players helped the pontiff with the classic trick in front of a cheering crowd.

The man who was killed—backed into and left in the road to die like a dog— was walking to his job at Home Depot on 1st Ave. He never made it to work.
Traffic violence is a CLASS issue. The working class is disproportionately affected.
Sinners deserves Best Cinematographer simply for the fact that it's a modern movie where you can tell what's going on during all the night scenes
This is, to put it mildly, a double standard. This guy was part of a government that encouraged online social media figures to engage in routine harassment of government employees to the point that many were fired or went into hiding. Some of it was done by Elon Musk, this guy's boss.
I'll admit it: I was genuinely a guy who, when murphy vs ncaa was decided, thought sports betting legalization would be basically fine and not cause any major problems and I was wrong about it.
