Obviously happy for Stafford and Donald and Whitworth getting their first rings. Great to see guys like OBJ and Von Miller succeed. And happy for all 8 fans of the LA Rams. But man.
Same, girl.
Sorry this is unclear but I do have a tv, guys, I promise - the laptop is hooked up to it.

Blue states across the country are finally allowing kids to go to school without masks.
You may remember, a few short months ago, Florida was demonized for allowing the same.
Who’s up for a little side-by-side? And where does @GovRonDeSantis go for his apology? ⤵️
You may remember that, when DeSantis banned mandates, @CNN put together a heart-wrenching story about how even 12 year old kids knew that masks were necessary in schools.
But when it isn’t Florida allowing kids to be unmasked, we just get the facts.
Why the change?
Over at @CNNPolitics, the same agitprop story got recycled in Florida.
But now? We’re told “Democratic governors outpace the White House with masking pullbacks.”
Oddly, I don’t recall the term “outpace” being used about DeSantis.
It seems not all cases of a president swearing at a reporter are created equal.
When Trump used an expletive about journalist Chuck Todd, it was a crisis.
When Biden did the same thing to Peter Doocy? Well, let me know if you can spot a different attitude.⤵️
First, some context. Back in 2018, then-President Trump called Chuck Todd, host of Meet the Press, a “son of a bitch” at a rally. The MSM was apoplectic.
Yesterday, Biden used the same term in response to a question from Fox’s Peter Doocy during a presser. This time, no outrage.
Back when Todd was on the receiving end of an insult, Politico wrote a piece titled “When the president of the United States calls you a ‘son of a bitch’” but when Biden does the same he’s just making “plain his opinion” about a reporter.
I mean no offense to the Science Correspondent at the “Unbiased Science Podcast,” the various veterinarians and their associates, the marriage therapist (licensed!) and the “science communicators” of course.
An explosive story from @NPR and @NinaTotenberg about supposed high drama around masking at the Supreme Court imploded today.
I want to take you through how misinformation like this gets mainstreamed by the corporate press and others.
Start here ⤵️
First, some background. @NPR reporter @NinaTotenberg reported that tensions were high at SCOTUS, particularly because Justice Gorsuch had supposedly refused a request from Chief Justice Roberts to put on a mask to help protect Justice Sotomayor.
But then the story started unraveling. First Sotomayor and Gorsuch put out a statement disputing some aspects of the reporting/narrative.
Then, this afternoon, Chief Justice Roberts went on the record to say the masking story was bogus.
Although as others have pointed out, while this statement clearly shoots down a Twitter talking point, it doesn’t directly dispute the reporting by NPR.
