“You can’t buy anything online that’s illegal and not consider it to be a problem potentially with fentanyl in it,” “Buy em online, well, they’re gonna have fentanyl in them too.”

Yeah, the first boating reference in the piece had me thinking “What? That phrase has nothing to do with boats”, but I (naively, as it turns out) kept waiting for the part where it was all made clear. As you note, it never was; it was just a weird interpretation. DeSantis’ entire point was that Trump’s followers are a

Tell me your CEO is a Danish guy without telling me your CEO is a Danish guy.

If you ever do go, your first glimpse of Assean Lake comes while you’re up on a high ridge. It’s breathtaking, but don’t get too captivated or you will plummet off a very high cliff and die. My first time, I gawped a little too long and almost did it myself.

I drove that highway in February one time, setting out from Edmonton after a morning meeting, about an hour into what would become a full-on blizzard.

“It was about sending a message to the world,” Schiffer told local outlet KHOU. “Do not mess with Texas and do not mess with Texas women.”

Yep, Katy’s putting out a real Cruella de Vil vibe with the hair, clothes, and facial expression. The fact that she’s pulling on a Wimbledon mojito (or Pimm’s or whatever) really completes the look.

My favourite bits (tough to narrow down, there’s just so much batshit stuff):

the dog’s owner continued to its resort destination [emphasis added]

Sure, call out the person who points out the bad act rather than the bad actors themselves. You know what’s many orders of magnitude worse than writing something you find to be in poor taste? Killing people. It’s not DaSilva who needs to grow up.

His name is the correct French spelling of millipede.

Well, what did Portman expect? Dude is literally a worm.

the San Francisco Archdiocese announced on Friday that it’s “very likely” to file for bankruptcy, and is attributing its financial ruin to a recent onslaught of child sexual abuse lawsuits against its priests and other employees spanning decades..

His last name is actually Nelson, but I guess that error kind of underlines your point.

It’s all the Canadians trying to soothe the burn of the big Trudoire breakup.
