  1. I’ve heard this theory floated but I’m not sure how plausible it is. Some believe Ears is trying to pull a stunt similar to the one Mitch executed. Can he keep 300 plus positions vacant until 11/24?
  2. I blame Rush Limbaugh and Howard Stern (and I’m only mildly kidding)
  3. You highlight another interesting challenge confronting us. It’s becoming a liability to be or to aspire to be smart and knowledgeable
  4. Are the networks concerned about the academic profiles of their chess pieces or are they leaving that piece up to the schools to pretend how important it is?
  5. I can’t help but recall how Ted Haggard regaled the unsuspecting with stories of how spiritually, emotionally and sexually satisfied conservatives Christians like himself were, only to find out it was the coke and the man on man sex that put a smile on his face.
  6. I used to think the lack of a teaching office in evangelical spaces was the problem until I discovered that a good many of the most virulent christo fascists are Catholics.
  7. Yours is a point that cannot be overstated. Simply lumping everybody who calls themselves Christian into a pot of non thinking, hateful, mean, ignorant, greedy hypocrites gives short shrift to millions faithful people who takes seriously the primacy of the love ethic in Christian praxis. Despite what we see representing Christianity in America, social holiness is really a thing.
  8. There are five military installations in Alabama and nearly 9,000 military personnel living there. Is there a provision that would allow the services to request relocation to other states?
  9. I don’t think we have any idea what all Jack Smith knows about Trump’s criminality: https://thehill.com/regulation/court-battles/4145619-special-counsel-won-secret-search-warrant-for-trumps-twitter-account/#:~:text=The case%2C decided in July,court order of the records. The Justice Department (DOJ), which first sought the records in January, also obtained a nondisclosure order that prohibited X from disclosing the existence or contents of the search warrant to anyone, including Trump himself. The filing details a months-long battle between X and the special counsel’s office over the efforts to get information tied to Trump’s account, with an appeals court backing a lower court ruling “in all respects.” “The district court found that there were ‘reasonable grounds to believe’ that disclosing the warrant to former President Trump ‘would seriously jeopardize the ongoing investigation’ by giving him ‘an opportunity to destroy evidence, change patterns of behavior, [or] notify confederates,’” the U.S. Court of Appeals for D.C. noted in its ruling. The lower court’s March ruling also found probable cause to search Trump’s Twitter account “for evidence of criminal offenses.” The ruling does not offer specific details about DOJ’s warrant or the subpoena. Trump on Wednesday bashed the move on social media, accusing DOJ of “making it a point not to let me know about this major ‘hit’ on my civil rights.
  10. The first line of the Black National Anthem is; Lift every voice and sing… We now have a new version that can be found on black social media along with other hilarious memes on The Riverboat Revolution: Lift every chair and swing… …folding chairs are now “freedom chairs” Black people have to find the humor in this kind of shit, because without it, we’d be the ones scaling the walls of the Capitol. I fully expect for there to be sermons on swimming as a metaphor for love preached in black churches across the country. We’ll all know the name of the 16 year old swimmer Sunday afternoon.
  11. Get concerned when ESPN plasters BIG docs all across all of its platforms all day like it does for the SEC.
  12. The most familiar example of this phenomenon is seen in those who look for ways to rationalize hatred of the other that competes with something inside of them that tells them it’s wrong. Zimmerman supporters used a teenager’s weed use to justify Zimmerman shooting Trayvon Martin in the heart. Eric Garner illegally sold cigarettes so his murder was justified…
  13. Still more pics from The Riverboat Revolution: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-12379669/Wild-new-footage-emerges-brawl-black-cruise-staff-white-pleasure-craft-owners-Alabama-dock-skipper-heard-speaker-saying-future-dont-f-k-riverboat-crew.html
  14. I blame drag queens. Republicans can’t focus on anything of importance until we solve drag queen story hour.
  15. This^ Watching greed and ethics dance around each other in the era of big time college football is otherworldly.
  16. Interestingly, the Big 12 is as urban, culturally and ethnically diverse as it is rural - DFW, Houston, Cincinnati, Phoenix, Orlando…
  17. Could be nothing more than click bait, but the cold reality of needing money now, might be calling some to become pragmatic https://twitter.com/MHver3/status/1687841142644047872?t=1uM8EyqyPeVWSg5ePZnI5g&s=09
  18. Because they’re Cal and Stanford. The B1G, more than anybody, is all about better thanness
