One of the goofier aspects of 90s MMA is how dudes had no idea how to get away from the fence. Tank Abbott pressed Anjo's head halfway towards the Goddamn scorer's table 😆

At UFC Ultimate Japan, Buffer announces Yoji Anjo as having a pro MMA record of "14-2" 😂😂😂😂😂 SEG made records up ALL THE TIME. I think I'm gonna run to Twitter & report every time one of their fabrications makes me laugh. It was the 90s. No one really even had a record!

In my opinion, the best movies do 3 things: 1. Tickle your funny bone 2. Tug on your heart strings 3. Blow your mind Agreed?

Can you name all 59 women who came forward against Cosby? Can you name half of them? Can you name 5? Would you recognize them out of context? Do you want an autograph? Cool so we agree that women don’t make rape accusations to become famous.

Yeah, this is an echo chamber moment for sure You haven't talked to anyone normal in like 12 years
No one believes Russell Brand actually raped anyone. That's what's terrifying.

The centrist mandate: Dissipate voters’ energy and urgency, ensure progress be near-invisible, and help fascists regroup. Every single time.
Neera Tanden at The National Press Club: The next two years should not be an opportunity for every group in DC to dust off their wish list for the last decade. It's not a time to pressure Congress to fruitlessly spend time, political capital on ideas that we couldn't get done in a Democratic trifecta just a few years ago.

Coddled, brainless millionaire fatso freaked out by crowded parking lot This is the man the Trump administration wants you to believe is a fighter
Dana White says he finally convinced himself to stop relying on his assistant and buy his own razor, but the moment he pulled into Target and saw how packed the parking lot was, he turned right around and went back to asking his assistant to get it "I have an assistant that buys all my sh*t. Like shoes, socks, everything I’m wearing." "And then I got people at my house that buy the food and all that stuff. So I needed a a shaver. So I said, 'F*ck, I gotta call and have her get me a shaver." "And I’m driving. I’m like, “M*therfucker, who do you think you are? Get your ass over to Target and go buy a shaver." "I pulled into the Target parking lot. And there was 650,000 cars. I was going to have to like park all the way down..." "I said, “Yeah, f*ck this sh*t, 'Hey, would you get me a razor?'"

This is one of the worst articles I've ever read. It gives this sleazy cringelord a one sided pulpit to spew bullshit from and tries to paint her story as a tale of resilience in the face of adversity. It's bananas. This women has zero integrity snd only cares about "scoops".

Lots of overrated comedians but I think Bill Hicks is #1. He didn't even do stand up in the "form of funny". Other overrated comics: Norm (completely obsessed with his own obviousness) Chappelle (acts like he reinvents comedy with every breath) Burr (performed for terrorists)

Translation: "I'm a racist and I definitely lost sleep over this but my petty racism carried me through." What a piece of shit.
"I"ve never lost a night’s sleep." This man dropped the atomic bomb on Hiroshima. When he died, he asked for no funeral and no headstone. Watch his face when the interviewer brings up the people who called him a killer. Paul Tibbets was 30. The night before the mission, he named the plane after his mother, Enola Gay. On August 6, 1945, tens of thousands of people in Hiroshima died in a single moment. By the end of the year, the count was around 140,000. Asked how he wanted to be remembered, he said: “I did what I was told to do, and I was damn proud of it.” His answer never changed. No regrets. This was war. He didn’t start it. He died in 2007 at 92. He was afraid protesters would turn his grave into a target, so his ashes were scattered over the English Channel. At what number of dead does "I followed orders" stop being an answer?

What a reference
its remarkable how little gen z drinks. it doesnt hit you til youre out w gen z coworkers, and even if youre the most washed up blown out millenial chungus who can only have like 2 beers, these teetotaling ipad babies will make you feel like orson wells shooting a wine commercial

This looks both dumb and bad and it's crazy that AI people can't see this. The original Star Wars looked so fucking cool because of how "lived in" the universe felt, how DIRTY everything looked. You know what you get when you "2026" it up? You get The Phantom Mencace.
Imagine watching the original Star Wars trilogy with 2026 visual effects. The younger generations deserve to experience this (and the older ones too). @Disney @starwars, make it happen!

Makes sense. It really didn't seem like he meant anything by it on that podcast ep, he just misspoke.

Especially funny that Trump wants him for this job at the very moment Dana is giving the worst press conference performances of his career.
BREAKING: President Trump announces he has offered the White House Press Secretary job to UFC President Dana White.

If I had to choose any MMA promoter to be the White House's Press Secretary it would 100% be Bjorn Rebney

You introduced a bill to help destroy the sport of boxing and hand it over to monopolists. You did this with Brian Jack, a Republican. Bipartisanship in service of corporate interests is no prize or goal.
Folks are frustrated with the dysfunction in Washington. So am I. We need more leaders willing to put aside partisanship and work across the aisle. That’s my playbook in Congress.

Renee Good and Alex Pretti were murdered on camera Abolish ICE
It’s time for ICE to take the masks off, turn the body cameras on, and start answering to the American people who pay for their bloated budget.

Somewhere in corrupt Dem consultant-land, a group of “strategists” really thought “pull the masks down and turn the bodycams on” was gonna knock our socks off. We all know Alex Pretti’s murder was captured on bodycam, right? Renee Good’s was captured on cell ph video being recorded like bodycam. Elsewhere, bodycams haven’t done shit to reduce non-ICE use of force incidents. Yet they’re a CENTERPIECE of centrist ICE “reform” proposals? What’s Jeffries’ and Schumer’s goal here—do they just want better quality video of ICE kidnapping, assaulting and/or killing innocent people? Or do they just want to see the faces of the perpetrators so they know exactly who DOJ is refusing to prosecute? America is so G-D sick of this infuriating lack of conviction or real action from Dem leaders. It’s never going to change until there’s a change in leadership itself.

Nope. Absolutely not! Go on down to coach's office. He wants to see you. And bring your playbook.
