First time I remember crying because of a movie.
I loved Harry too.
This essay is going to break me isn’t it.

This coach got burned calling the goalline defense on the 50 yard line on a 4th an 2 when they didn’t have anyone cover the WR, and lost his voice screaming about the lack of execution.

Treated like a dog. She’s probably thankful it’s not one of her dogs.

What a 🤯 stat from the I on Hawks pod- this @IowaWBB team is heading into the B1G tourney with a better record than any year with Caitlin. Jan has some assassins and Ava Heiden is setting up for a RUN

Mr. White - sounds both like a title and an occupation. So who is Mr. Blonde?

Throw back to 2022, seeing Caitlin Clark run it up, win a B1G title, and making a core memory with my little army 🫶🏻

"Friends" is a beloved American sitcom that aired from 1994 to 2004, following six young adults—Rachel, Ross, Monica, Chandler, Joey, and Phoebe—living in New York City. The show explores their friendships, romances, careers, and personal growth over ten seasons.

Also following it up with the organ intro, giving both Dracula and Phantom vibes…10/10

When I heard this, I drafted a skeet about it, then thought "naaah, there's no way his speechwriters would allow him to contradict himself within one sentence." But they really and truly did.

@hollyanderson.bsky.social after last night’s absurdity, Dracula PLUS is the most rational
concept I’ve heard in a minute. Dracula PLUS can save America’s healthcare system.

I’m here to plant the flag that this is a shadow prequel to The Expanse, and i want to see Season 6 become the Asteroid Belt expansion. I simply hope AppleTV keeps barreling forward. Also:
Silo, Invasion, Monarch, Foundation! Dark Matter! SEVERANCE! PLURIBUS! Keep going!

Friend, you took the words right out of my brain. Just waiting for a reference to starting a colony on the asteroid belt…

I mean, I’ve been watching this Fallout show, and this seems…spot on?

Public school administrators- superintendents, principals, directors, are told not to post pictures on vacations or situations where it looks bad ethically in order to avoid the scrutiny of public dollars paying their salaries and how it can be perceived. Guess that doesn’t apply to the FBI

No. Beer. Go. Hawks.

Surrounding himself with terrible people, and terrible corn? I shouldn’t be surprised. If this squatty person is seeing over top of your tasseled corn, you need to find a better seed corn dealer. Maybe because I grew up in Iowa and know good corn should tower over top of this boy

Blame the editor who should have caught this. I read the article, and yet the headline persists to make people avoid doing so, and my bad, it’s 10 months early! Hope the Olympics are still going

I think we have found JD’s perfect role.

I know nobody watches local tv anymore, except to maybe catch the weather or news. But back in the day they had some ear worms in their ads. Every once in a while one gets triggered- if you lived in NW Iowa, Beano & Sherry’s Casino was a banger.

Pate puts on a clown nose when he’s made a bad pick. I know his “fox hole” boys are supporting him, but this isn’t the hill. This is a bad call. Ignoring all the bad and saying it’s “just football” just looks naive and ignorant. Unfollowed, unsubscribed, all of them.

When they started shooting fireworks at each other, from boat to boat, at sea…I thought…hey these guys might not be ok
