I don’t care how many shots he hits or total points he scores- watching James Harden play basketball just sucks.

I know they haven’t played anyone good except the Bills, but it’s still worth noting the Pats are on pace to absolutely shatter their own NFL record for point differential in a season (+315 in 2007, currently at +175 and on pace for +400).

I can only hope, for completeness’s sake, that a third fan yelled out “Play Free Bird!”

David Attenborough. Richard only commentated on dinosaurs.

Nice try Jake, but you’re not getting my AI glasses.

I know, I get it. Trust me I do. I root for human shit, and Rudy Guiliani loves our team. I legitimately have no come back for that, and I don’t expect you to ever come around.

Eh, posting things to a locked, private social media account restricted to trusted friends and family is not meaningfully different from sending an email to a private mailing list, or just talking to a group of close associates around a dinner table. It’s fine to expect those people to keep what they hear private, and…

Fun fact: the English verb “bugger,” which means “to have anal sex,” derives from “Bulgar.” A heretical medieval sect named the Cathars called on its members to eschew having children, but did not proscribe sex; this meant lots of anal.
