  1. Or…. We could prioritize the sport that is far more popular….. before we ruin the sport we have. It’s also hard to be more dominant than literal #1. Why can’t we just have both? also. GR is barely worth mentioning.
  2. U17 world champs. I guess folkstyle isn’t ruining our talent on the world stage and we really don’t need to turn folkstyle into freestyle.
  3. I don’t pay attention to most of those things. But she is hot no? Megan Kelly is pretty hot too.
  4. I mean good summary. I didn’t know who Sydney was before this but I know she’s smokin hot now.
  5. Maybe cnn doesn’t like Sydney Sweeney? This is from May… or does cnn like edgy titles to grab views too Sydney Sweeney is selling soap infused with her ‘actual’ bathwater… and we feel dirty just typing this https://amp.cnn.com/cnn/2025/05/29/entertainment/sydney-sweeney-soap-bathwater
  6. CNN felt compelled to comment on it again https://amp.cnn.com/cnn/2025/08/02/entertainment/sydney-sweeney-american-eagle-ad-dunkin-drama-cec
  7. You’re the master of the famous argument I know you are but what am I.
  8. That was a coup. They planned this months ahead of time.
  9. Call their bluff and release the hostages.
  10. https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8ku3fg6/ Transcript of you won’t click the link. It’s an ap journalist discussing how Hamas censorship works in western journalism 00:00:00 --> 00:00:02 The AP, as far as I know, 00:00:02 --> 00:00:05 I was the first staffer to erase information from a story 00:00:05 --> 00:00:07 because we were threatened by Hamas, 00:00:07 --> 00:00:09 which happened at the very end of, 00:00:09 --> 00:00:11 of 2008. We had a great reporter in Gaza, 00:00:11 --> 00:00:14 a Palestinian who had always been, um, 00:00:14 --> 00:00:15 really an excellent reporter. 00:00:15 --> 00:00:16 We had a detail in a story. 00:00:16 --> 00:00:18 The detail was a crucial one. 00:00:18 --> 00:00:20 It was that Hamas fighters were dressed as civilians 00:00:20 --> 00:00:23 and were being counted as civilians in the death toll, 00:00:24 --> 00:00:27 an important thing to know that went out in an AP story. 00:00:27 --> 00:00:29 The reporter called me a few hours later. 00:00:29 --> 00:00:31 It was clear that someone had spoken to him. 00:00:32 --> 00:00:34 And he told me, I was on the desk in Jerusalem, 00:00:34 --> 00:00:37 so I was kind of writing the story from the main bureau in Jerusalem. 00:00:37 --> 00:00:38 And he said, Mattie, 00:00:38 --> 00:00:40 you have to take that detail out of the story. 00:00:40 --> 00:00:42 And it was clear that someone had threatened him. 00:00:42 --> 00:00:43 I took the detail out of the story. 00:00:43 --> 00:00:47 I suggested to, to our editors that we note in an editor's note 00:00:47 --> 00:00:50 that we were now complying with Hamas censorship. 00:00:50 --> 00:00:53 I was overruled. And from that point in time, 00:00:53 --> 00:00:55 the AP, like all of its sister organizations, 00:00:55 --> 00:00:57 collaborates with Hamas censorship in Gaza. 00:00:57 --> 00:00:58 What does that mean? 00:00:59 --> 00:01:02 You'll see a lot of dead civilians and you won't see dead militants. 00:01:02 --> 00:01:05 You won't have a clear idea of what the Hamas military strategy is. And, 00:01:05 --> 00:01:08 and this is the kicker. The center Of the coverage will be a number, 00:01:08 --> 00:01:11 a casualty number that is provided to the press 00:01:11 --> 00:01:13 by something called the Gaza Health Ministry, 00:01:13 --> 00:01:17 which is Hamas. And we've been doing that since 2,008. 00:01:17 --> 00:01:18 And it's a way of basically 00:01:19 --> 00:01:22 settling the story before you get into any other information. 00:01:22 --> 00:01:23 Because when you put, you know, 00:01:23 --> 00:01:26 when you say 50,000, 50, 00:01:26 --> 00:01:29 50 Palestinians were killed and one Israeli on a given day, 00:01:29 --> 00:01:32 you know, it doesn't matter what else you say. 00:01:32 --> 00:01:34 The numbers kind of tell their own story. 00:01:34 --> 00:01:35 And it's a way of kind of 00:01:35 --> 00:01:36 settling the story 00:01:36 --> 00:01:38 with something that sounds like a concrete statistic. 00:01:38 --> 00:01:41 And the statistic is being, 00:01:41 --> 00:01:45 you know, given to us by one of the combatant sides. 00:01:45 --> 00:01:47 But because the reporters sympathize with that side, 00:01:47 --> 00:01:50 they're happy to, they're happy to play along. 00:01:50 --> 00:01:52 So since 2008, certainly since 2014, 00:01:52 --> 00:01:55 when we had another serious war in Gaza, 00:01:55 --> 00:01:58 the press has not been covering in Gaza. 00:01:58 --> 00:01:59 The press has been essentially 00:01:59 --> 00:02:04 an amplifier for one of the most poisonous ideologies on earth. 00:02:04 --> 00:02:09 Hamas has figured out how to make the press amplify its messaging 00:02:09 --> 00:02:11 rather than covering Hamas. 00:02:11 --> 00:02:13 There are no western reporters in Gaza. 00:02:13 --> 00:02:17 All of the reporters in Gaza are Palestinians. 00:02:17 --> 00:02:19 And those people fall into three categories. 00:02:19 --> 00:02:21 Some of them identify with Hamas. 00:02:21 --> 00:02:24 Some of them are intimidated by Hamas and won't cross Hamas, 00:02:24 --> 00:02:25 which makes a lot of sense. 00:02:25 --> 00:02:27 I wouldn't want to cross Hamas either. 00:02:27 --> 00:02:28 And the third category is people. 00:02:28 --> 00:02:30 Who actually belong to Hamas. 00:02:31 --> 00:02:34 That's where the information from Gaza is coming from. 00:02:34 --> 00:02:36 And if you're credulous, then of course, 00:02:36 --> 00:02:39 you're gonna get a story that makes Israel look pretty bad.
  11. Just release the hostages. That’s pretty easy to do.
  12. You’re condoning one. While denigrating another. May as well say it. It’s what you mean. Or. You can acknowledge just a few short months ago the other team was doing similar shyte
  13. Than my original comment stands. It’s funny how the Biden admin didn’t meddle in other orgs … cause my team good. And everything in trumps admin is day 1 dictatorship/orders. Keep on keepin on brother.
  14. You did what you insinuated you didn’t do. It’s ok. Both teams do it.
  15. I don’t know what your insinuating here then.
  16. The left is not always you boss. It’s just the left.
  17. Yup. What’s good for theee. But not for me. My team good. Your team bad.
  18. You know his handlers made his moves for him. Should I type that out every time. Or should I just say the Biden admin. How should I word that for y’all. Question still stands. The Biden admin said they didn’t pressure the doj to do anything. It was just destiny that occurred organically. Everything in this admin (according to some …. Not typically you) is Trump ordering it to happen.
  19. I love how Biden clearly had nothing to do with ordering the doj around and Trump obviously has everything to do with ordering everyone around. It’s almost like a cartoon.
  20. Were was your whining and malcontent when Obama was deporting citizens on accident?
  21. Relative to deportations. Citizens or not. Nothing new is happening under Trump that hasn’t been happening for decades. You’re just whining about it.
  22. It says show some evidence. You didn’t.
  23. I am 35 mins into episode 1 yes. That’s true.
  24. Good night boss. Imma watch a music documentary. The new zeppelin one or a long strange trip. Any votes for either ?
