  1. Question for Bateshorn, has there ever been a shutdown that a party or admin thinks they ā€œwonā€. My recollections are usually that everyone regrets it and that the exits are harder to identify and bring fewer benefits than the drawbacks to all.
  2. Good idea, bleh execution. I am a WWII aviation fan and leaning into the P-40 Warhawk angle is cool. But they use an actual hawk on all their other branding. The mascot was chosen to honor Chennault so why not make that the primary focus? The shark mouth is cool but it’s itching to be the helmet mark, not a sleeve. It is one of the most iconic WWII era symbols and should have pride of place. Move the Louisiana with the roundel to the sleeve. The roundel in the middle of the jersey is odd. Why not use the Flying Tigers’ actual squadron symbol if you’re doing this tribute instead of the roundel? Walt Disney did this for the squadron. Gray sucks. Go with the airplane’s actual olive drab if you’re not doing school colors.
  3. I tend to agree that it’s time to give the people what they voted for. It’s going to be a hard sell to constituent supporters.
  4. Well, Russ Voight has told agencies to use this as a chance to do mass layoffs. It will be bad for any fed, but worse for others. The politics are one thing but the admin is deeply prepared to do real harm to actual people and the economy, which will be a calculus for many Ds who still see politics as the means not the end. Do the Dems have a Siberia to fall back to?
  5. Muscle Shoals
  6. They also considered ā€œBhryghlinneh.ā€
  7. Let’s give our previous act a hand, folks. No, really, we’ve got plenty lying around!
  8. Take my wives, please!
  9. ā€œBrilynā€ is a tragediegh of a name.
  10. Paydirt Pete is great. I do also like the pickaxe as the T in ā€œUTEPā€ and the single pickaxe. UTEP has some great and unique stuff to work with; and should completely ditch the modern miner mark that just looks like a cowboy. The baby blue is so great, much better and eye catching than the navy. Kind of the inverse of the classic Gulf racing livery. I welcome all moves back to brighter colors and away from muddy tones and shades of gray/white. It’s just much nicer to see colors and contrast on the field. That’s part of why the Cardinals stuff sucks, just a bunch of muted ā€œdesert tones.ā€ The AZ flag is great and iconic because of the colors and they took them all out.
  11. Oh, whatever. He’s a bad guy and should be in jail, does it matter what reason is written on the paper? I am a serious libertarian.
  12. We must stand against any rhetoric that encourages political violence. Except for calling to execute teacher union leadership, that’s just some funnin’. Goofin’. https://www.thedailybeast.com/trump-nominee-jeremy-carl-demanded-political-opponents-death-before-tweet-purge/
  13. I approve of this.
  14. This is one of the great weekends of college football this season. I think the fighting Kiffins beat LSU. My pick for most likely upset, followed by Oregon over PSU although that’s not much of an upset TBH.
  15. Israel is in the European qualifying region and has never made it to a WC since moving into that region in the 1970s. Vanishingly small chance Israel qualifies. It’s just posture from the Euros, Spain and Portugal will not boycott a WC.
  16. Non-zero chance this will be an awards ceremony for the Indian Wars and potentially unveiling of throwback uniforms.
  17. We’re attaining incredible advances in principled libertarianism and hostility to government abuse of power in these latter days.
  18. I love how this is called a blunder and how CBS just repeats that and assures us that people investigating to see how it happened. That’s the good shit, that’s the straight Putinst dope right into my veins. In 2026 we will be investigating tragic window accidents.
  19. The ones who survive will be getting orders how to go back and implement purges and loyalty tests at their commands.
  20. MAGA understands that the important thing is bringing the charge. Not a favorable verdict. The charge isn’t directed at Comey, it’s directed at any officials who retain a sense of ethics.
  21. I am skeptical that it’s a major military action but could be wrong. I think it’s more likely to ā€œpresentā€ the new domestic first security posture and begin ushering out GOFOs who want to be American officers and not Trump’s officers.
  22. America is being run like a business— that’s been acquired by private equity and is being stripped for parts. This isn’t exactly new— corporate America has long treated their sector that way— but it’s now the entrenched worldview of the highest level of government. Anything of value or functioning is going to be seen by the regime as a failure—because it represents a loss of short term profit to keep it. It’s best to adjust accordingly and try to make out as best as you can in the coming years. Look for exposed copper wiring.
  23. Theo Von: Wait, no, I just wanted to dog whistle. Not really whistle.
  24. So fortunate we have a VPOTUS to remind Zelenskyy to say thank you and now Jimmy to say sowwy. https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/5520203-kimmel-apology-charlie-kirk-comments/amp/
