We just want to know what the hell is going on. If he’s hurt just say so. If he needs surgery just get it done since this season is pretty much lost. We’re not as hard to deal with as the media would have you believe. Just be straightforward with us and tell us how we’re getting the 34 we know and love back and if we can’t have vintage 34, tell us why. Him and the team could avoid all the shade with a little honesty.

Today @amazon sent me shattered chia seeds that can’t be returned. And their Blink customer service wasted an hour of my life before disconnecting.

Putin Meets With Witkoff and Kushner for Nearly Five Hours and the two sides did not reach any specific compromises, an aide to President Vladimir V. Putin said, as the United States pushes a plan to end the war in Ukraine. Let me translate for you what this means. There was never any intention from Russia to settle this conflict (even when they released their 28 point “peace plan”). This whole thing has been a well executed intelligence operation with two very specific objectives: 1) to derail the devastating oil sanctions that Senator Lindsay Graham has tee’d up and 2) to derail the EU plan to transfer the Russian frozen assets to Ukraine. As a result of these so called “peace negotiations” both of these serious consequences have been kicked into the long grass. Putin is happy and Trump will say “we can’t impose sanctions on Russia while we’re trying to get peace”. And he will lean heavily on the EU to not confiscate the frozen assets so they don’t “derail these productive negotiations”. For anyone who understands what Russia cares about, this whole thing is so obvious. It’s a shame we let ourselves get played by Putin. Most importantly, the Russian terrorism against innocent Ukrainians will continue.
"So far, no compromise option has been found, but some American developments look more or less acceptable, but they need to be discussed. Some of the wording that was offered to us does not suit us." Russia pushes back on American peace proposal for #Ukraine. nytimes.com/2025/12/02/world…

Can we acknowledge now, once and for all, that there is no "American position" on Ukraine, that Trump is, simply and squarely, on Russia's side?

Fantastic slip pass by Cowan and the real captain hammers it home. What a goal.

The St Louis Blues should be fined by the league for being the first team to make 3 on 3 overtime boring. William Nylander recognized this and scored the prettiest fucking goal of the season so far

The number 1 seed, division champion, American League Champion, 11th inning Game 7 World Series @BlueJays won ZERO league awards this year. None. Just super culture and an unmatched team ethic - a coach’s dream.

1. Reagan’s speech is real 2. It’s public domain 3. Americans pay the cost of the added 10% tariffs, not Canadians 4. Trump keeps lying because he thinks you’re all too stupid to fact check 5. The average family will pay an extra $4900 this year because his tariffs

Too many shifts of legit nothing from Matthews. Out of Knies, Tavares, and Nylander dude has been the most nonchalant guy out there which is legit insane when you wear captaincy.
