It seems really unprecedented how relatively benign the American occupations of Europe and east Asia were.

Now we know for a fact "woke" means literally nothing.

I don't think we have the manufacturing base in this country to generate pollution anywhere near this level. I don't think we'll get back there until wages for factory workers are driven to south Asian levels.

Vlad is negotiating for a Manchurian envoy.

🤣🤣🤣

All good points, although I was not talking in terms of technical economics, either.

Hitler didn't want a war with the rest of Europe, either. He started the war only once he could not bully and humiliate them into handing him the lebensraum on a silver platter that he wanted.

This should go down as one of the greatest Weekend Update bits in SNL history.

I do? That would make us kind of crowded at SS/3B now, assuming Jace Jung is also not toast. Marte also has not hit enough in the high minors to overcome his awful defense.

Perhaps they simply haven't been provided the correct rhetoric to defend it with. Give it a little time.

The rhetoric is off by only 900 years.

I think it's possible Tork's on the block.

Irrespective of whether it applies with Workman and the Tigers, it is a reminder that sometimes even a good player does not mesh with a good organization's good system.

Apropos of nothing, Death of Stalin has become one of my ten go-to movies I will watch every time it’s on, and can turn on at any point in the middle of it and be happy to watch it through to the end.

To be fair, wholesale prices are coming down, so it’s not a complete lie. That said, isn’t the Republicans saying wholesale egg prices are coming down, while we are still paying elevated and even rising prices at the store, the same as when Democrats last year said inflation is under control while people were reporting rising prices at the grocery store?

They make it sound like Hitler, Mao, and Stalin could not have been at fault for their genocides simply because they identified and hired the five percent of their populations who would find it thrilling to carry them out at their behest.

It might not matter because red hats may have the same malady their dear leader does: the one in which a new piece of information completely pushes out the old piece of information which they won’t remember they ever heard in the first place. So when they say, “we never said consumers won’t pay higher prices because of tariffs”, they’ll genuinely believe it.

Extra Larges are $9.79 at the Kroger here in Big Shoulders.

Gage Tater Workman. True story.

Class up the ass!

Guenther?

As first highlighted by @romad1, we appear to be firmly ensconced in the era of special pleading. 6. 💰 GOP's DOGE back-channel As Elon Musk's slash-and-burn budget cuts hit Republican and Democratic areas alike, some GOP lawmakers are privately back-channeling with the Trump administration to try to shield their constituents from the fallout, Axios' Erin Doherty and Andrew Solender write. Why it matters: Republicans have largely cheered on DOGE in public. But behind the scenes, many of President Trump's allies fear potential political backlash to the cuts — and are scrambling to limit the damage. Of the 60 congressional districts with the most federal workers, a slight majority are represented by Republicans. 👂 What we're hearing: Several House Republicans told Axios they have succeeded in — or at least contributed to — getting DOGE to reverse certain cuts through private back-channeling. Rep. Cliff Bentz (R-Ore.) said he raised concerns about job cuts at the Bonneville Power Administration: "Whether it was my remarks back to DOGE or somebody else's, it got fixed. They ... hired back 30 people." Keep reading.

I feel "schmuck" is too soft a name to call FElon. 😁

So does iOS autocorrect.

Whoa, Foley cut all his straggly hair off!
