Wordle 876 4/6 🟨🟨🟨 🟨🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 I took you up on your challenge and got a really good start, went for it on two thinking it was easy... no...no... wound up saving my ass on a 50/50 on four. "Well that didn't work" Then it occurred to me that you were probably talking about a movie. The second guess must be easy... Framed #611 🟥 🟩 https://framed.wtf

Wordle 875 4/6 🟨 🟨🟨🟨 🟩🟨🟨🟨 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 Had four letters and no clue. Finally found something but that didn't work. Now I had one green and three letters, each with two spots blocked off, and still didn't see it. Was an easy word, I felt stupid.

San Francisco: People are pooping more than ever on the streets...

So they can just flip a switch and not be America's posterchild leftoid sh*thole anymore? Well.... props to them then... LA, Seattle, Portland, Minneapolis ... apparently there's an easy to carry out working template. -
Michigan with it's first real win of the season and were the better team. That Penn State TD at the end was utter cheese. That the interception was overturned and the excessive celebration flag stood was particularly ridiculous. Go fock off.

So, the NCAA came sniffing around Ann Arbor again and Jim Harbaugh got suspended again. The first time was bullsh*t about giving kids hamburgers because of bullsh*t rules in place for COVID. Fock off. This time though they were caught stealing signs which is real a scandal that ought to have legs. I don't know if "all schools do it" and UM just got caught because the other B1G schools complained, or if they're the only ones who do it and are focking d0uchebags. What makes this scandal particularly pathetic is that they've played nobodies all year. Cheating against Penn State or Ohio State would be horrible ... why you even feel a need to cheat against UNLV or Indiana is focking incomprehensible. There's a mosquito over there, this flyswatter and long sleeve sweatshirt isn't enough, no, we need mustard gas cannisters. It pisses me off and is embarrassing. So Harbaugh gets a three game suspension. A partial suspension. It keeps him off the sideline during game time on Saturday but the other 6 and 9/10 days of the week he's training, coaching, making game plans. He might even be allowed in the booth (or not. I'm not sure.) Anyway, I think that's fine. Great. If we beat Penn State and Ohio State, then we're paid in full and still allowed to fight for the national title. It's not like we're being kicked out of the college football playoffs, which would have been a disaster. But no, we can't admit we did anything wrong. So they're fighting this. Gimme a break. Just deal with it and move on.

I like to think it would be a flashback to a previous life

I don't know if you know this, but that's exactly what happened in London. They've already banned guns so, since they had a whole bunch of stabbings instead, the solution, obviously, was to ban knives. "Turn in your knives." It's a great story what happened next... simultaneously both horrible and hilarious... https://archive.is/gI8LV This happened everywhere, different story/ same story https://pluralist.com/knife-surrender-bin-broken-into-knives-stolen/

When this happened I was positive it was a Muslim extremism that did it, but uh... I gotta say it's not looking like that's the case after all. We'll see.

This game against the Chargers on the road is a big one for the Lions. If you want to be considered an elite team instead of a very good one, you have to win games like this or the Chiefs when missing two top stars. The Chargers have had issues defending the pass since they play in the AFC but playing against the scrub Jets and Bears backup QBs have helped with their numbers lately. These guys are inconsistent but on a good day can play with the best of them plus it's in LA. The Lions are mostly healthy coming off the bye. Finally. Moseley, of course, is out for the year. CJGJ may be too, although he insists a late season return is possible. James Houston, their best pass rusher opposite Hutchinson, has been gone since week two, won't be back until December, and has been deeply missed. Brad Holmes did next to nothing at the trade deadline, he sent a 2025 6th round pick to Cleveland to bring in a big bodies WR that the Browns weren't using very much. Thanks to an assist from a weak schedule, the Lions have a very good chance at landing the #1 playoff seed, bye week, and home field advantage. They probably need 13 wins to get there, so games like this need to be won. I keep wishing death on the Eagles, it's only worked one time, what happens instead is that they keep pissing me off by pulling close games out of their asses. By comparison, I've had more success with wishing death on the 49ers lately. Both teams have a much tougher schedule the rest of the way than Detroit. If the 49ers are to catch the Lions for the 2nd seed, they'll have their work cut out for them. Thank you Jets, Bengals, Vikings, and Browns.

I'm a fake astronaut and fake lion tamer, not a fake psychologist nor movie producer but I think EG's dream could be the next Lucasfilm box office disaster. Here you have EG hanging out with the most famous chick in the world and a HoF quarterback. Nice start there. The chick wants to toss the football because this is a Disney production so we need the chick to initiate playing football. Then there's the quarterback is there too but he isn't interested in the football. This is a Disney production so EG's needs a gay date for the evening, someone who wants to share a platter of wings with him. Get Harrison Ford involved and we've got a nice dinner scene in a sports bar going for either Indiana Jones Part V or alternate universe Star Wars. "No, hot football chick, I won't play catch with you." "No, my gay Hall of Fame quarterback date, you can't have any more chicken wings." Get a fight scene in there against Snow White's diverse, equitable, and inclusive non-dwarf miners. The fight ends when Peyton Manning's head explodes. Nobody dies and they all escape unharmed, including Peyton. You've got the chick in there at quarterback. You've taken the straight white male patriarchy guy and made him gay and lame with an inflatable head. I think Disney would go for it.

The IDF who gets their paychecks from Netanyahu and are responsible for keeping a lid on the settlers were someplace else. The settlers crossed a line and deserved being called out. This is more a case of the mice will play while the cat's away.
-
That wasn't IDF. That was settlers going crazy because the IDF units who kept them in check were withdrawn.

He's right and nothing... it was a tangent, nevermind.

You missed my point but gutterboy gets it.

The difference between denying the existence of dead babies at Kfer Aza and at Sandy Hook is maybe lost on people.

I don't know what liberals dream about. I suspect it involves some combination of Shaquille O'Neil, a ten-year old boy, a sheep, and/or a cucumber. Leftoid lunatics invading Black Rock headquarters seems more along the lines of something that I might come up with. In my dream they'd be running up the stairs and rampaging through offices with torches which they'd burn the skyscraper down with themselves and Black Rock's top executives trapped inside. I'd be outside doing the Ray Epps thing, putting marshmallows on a stick, and helping the cleaning staff escape.

Congrats. I can't get a streak that high, I always forget a day here or there and start over.

Hold on, hold on. It's taking me a moment to grasp that leftoid protestors have actually found a legitimate vulture capitalist target to vent their frustrations on. This isn't a hapless Kenosha car dealership, these are the left's very own evil Davos-tied leftoid masters of the universes they are confronting. If any place on this planet deserves a visit by firey but mostly peaceful protesters, Black Rock corporate HQs would be near the top of the list.

Regarding the coverage we've seen of the atrocities committed in Israel on the day, you believe that they were exaggerated. That's a rough position to take. It occurs to me that in a different time and place, you would be Alex Jones which would explain why you're reaping Alex Jones type blowback. -- I don't know about Reuters, my understanding is that a lot of these guys are independent contractors. It's not my scandal though. If a news agency has a presence in Gaza, I know and accept that the journalists they hire are either pro-Hamas or have to pretend to be in order to maintain a pulse. You either hire them anyway because it's newsworthy place and you want feet on the ground there, or you do without a presence in Gaza. Are they doing a bad job, no, they're doing the job we expect, which is Palestinian sympathetic and Hamas sympathetic. I also understand full well why partisan pro-Hamas journalists wouldn't tip off Israel of an impending attack. Getting back to the different time and place theme, were I a journalist with a scoop about the D-Day invasion, I wouldn't have reported it to my bosses either until after it starts.

He's disparaging the anti-American, anti-West, pro-criminal, pro-terrorist sentiment in college students because decent people got complacent and hadn't noticed until recently that schools promote the same rhetoric that comes from you and Tim and likely got fed into you and Tim once upon a time as students yourselves.
-
Whenever you see a journalist based in Gaza, you can presume you're getting a pro-Hamas journalist, just like if you get a journalist from the New York Times, you can presume you're getting a pro-abortion, pro-LGBTQ journalist. You hope the facts are accurate, and almost all of the time they are, but you also have to keep in mind that they are presented comes with a spin and through a filter.

I gave you my first like in a very long time for this post. Other than being normal and not weird, It's a great observation and very true. It cuts both ways and pretty much all of us are guilty of it, including me, but you're a big participant too. It occurs to me that people know more about the bullsh*t the other side is doing than the bullsh^t their own side is doing. Look at how well-versed Blue Horseshoe and League Champion being on the trannny stuff. If you look in the mirror though, you claim to not know fock all about the World Economic Forum and worms claims to know fock all about Ibrahim X. Kendi, but the pair of you are the forum's top two experts on Q-Anon nonsense.
