The funniest, most Sorkin-esque possible outcome would be if Kamala becomes the nominee and then selects Joe Biden as her running mate.

The main character in Run Lola Run

In the "oh hey, I did something creative for once" category, I posted a DBZ video essay on my YouTube channel that I meant to post right after Akira Toriyama died but wasn't able to until now because of health issues. If you've ever wondered what I sound like, here ya go!

Why I Like That The Other Z Fighters Attacked Cell Before Vegeta - A DBZ Video Essaywww.youtube.com Gohan defeating Perfect Cell with a kamehameha is one of the greatest moments in all of anime, let alone in Dragon Ball Z. And it's a moment that couldn't ha...

It's funny how Kendrick accused Drake of having a secret daughter in Meet the Grahams, which is a gigantic accusation to make, and yet it's a total afterthought because Not Like Us is such a sensation that neither side has had to follow up on if it's true or not.

No matter how much America spirals towards disaster or destroys the planet, no one can ever take away that it momentarily got to be canon in Dragon Ball that one time.

Few things in life must feel better than name-dropping a six-time NBA all-star in your diss track and that all-star winds up siding with you so much that he appears in the music video for it.

Fwiw, I think a freshly-anointed presidential nominee Kamala Harris would get a honeymoon reception in the media because a candidate swooping in from the sidelines to challenge Trump is a phenomenal story and they would absolutely build up that aspect of it, at least at first.

I wish more ppl got that perception is reality. It doesn't matter that Biden is probably fine and saner and more competent than Trump. These are things that DO NOT matter in a popularity contest. What matters is what people *believe*, and headlines like this reinforce that.

Man, idk if this is going to work out www.cnn.com/2024/07/04/p...

In 2016, Hillary had huge unfavorables but she led almost the whole race, so there was a logic to ppl thinking it would all work out. In 2024, Biden has huge unfavorables and is LOSING. It is now *ill*logical to assume he just wins, he is in a spectacularly worse position than HRC ever was.

What's wild to me is that their primary argument is basically "well maybe the polls are just not real." Like I've seen zero plan on how to overcome the collosal hole he's in if they're accurate, which most polls still are. It's just straight "maybe everything will work out" hopium.

The Warriors have a new elite shooter in their backcourt. Nature is hielding.

FROM WOJ: ESPN Sources: Free agent Buddy Hield is joining Golden State on a sign-and-trade deal guaranteed for two years and $21 million. Hield gets $18M in first two years, a $3M partial guarantee in 3rd year and player option on non-guaranteed 4th year. Warriors send Sixers 2031 second

The British mind cannot comprehend this

It really sucks that a humongous warning sign that someone is totally out of their mind is if the only emoji on their profile is of the American flag.

Happy 248th birthday to *audience groans* the United States of America! We're only two years away now from its semiquincentennial, which I'm happy to point out because I love getting to use the word "semiquincentennial." 🇺🇲

I honestly think we're gonna look back at that debate as Biden's Benghazi, as the epicenter of an endless series of negative coverage that just never stopped whittling away at him - and I don't think a lot of ppl in the present get that it's quite *that* bad.

The paradox of torrent/piracy sites is that it's important that people know about the best ones but it's equally important that no one ever explicitly says what they are out loud.

Wolf Blitzer on election night: Well folks, the nightmare lives on. Donald Trump has been elected the 47th president Me posting through the worst panic attack of my life: "Donald Trump" suggests the existence of Daffy Trump

Soon, an eternal question may finally get answered: is America ready to have a Golden State Warriors fan as president?

Politics shmolitics, the real crisis looming over America is how bad the new MLB All-Star Game uniforms are. I mean sheesh.

Joe Biden will not be the presidential nominee. It's just a matter of everyone realizing it.

I think ppl are underestimating how unbelievably refreshing Kamala is gonna come off to people, who've spent the last few years only hearing from two incredibly old white guys. Now suddenly they'll hear from someone younger and different, it's a low bar she gets to soar over.

Joe Biden has been the best president of my life, and the media freakout over his debate is partly hysterical. I also DO NOT feel remotely sorry for him because he has jeopardized the country with a selfish vanity run that 70% of voters didn't want. He brought this upon himself.

I'm on board w calling for Biden to leave, but it is objectively nuts that the most horrendous, deranged stories possible dropped about both Trump and RFK Jr. yesterday and yet neither story was able to resonate because of how much attention was going to Biden's age.

Keep Kamala and Carry On... would be a pretty good slogan

What I love about anime is that you could be watching the goofiest, silliest, most slapstick series imaginable and it will be totally liable to drop the most beautifully rendered depiction of a power line at any given moment.

If Biden gets dropped, it's because Democratic constituents backed an extremely vulnerable candidate in 2016 on the pitch that they couldn't do better electorally, watched that candidate lose, and will go the rest of their life vowing to never get burned like that ever again.

I'm like... trying to process that the Clippers might have Miles Bridges and Kevin Porter Jr in the same lineup next year. I feel like a team *that* ostentatiously evil might finally jar ppl in the media into haranguing the league about how indefensible their DV policy is.

Wow, all those times ppl joked about every bad guy joining the Hornets or Browns and forming a suicide squad, and the Clippers are out here actually doing it

Clippers look into acquiring free agent Miles Bridgeswww.latimes.com The 6-foot-7 forward, who had off-court issues, could help fill the void after Paul George agreed to join the Philadelphia 76ers in free agency.

There are ppl on here I really, really respect who don't seem to appreciate just *how* much ordinary, non-online Americans will not feel incentivized to vote for an 82-yr-old guy they were meh about to begin with who's now visibly deteriorating before their eyes - even if it means Trump wins again.

I cant tell you how much I'd be doom-posting rn if I wasn't honestly convinced that Biden will have to drop out and a Kamala-whoever ticket will do fine versus Trump.

Look at my candidate, dawg. My country's going to die
