    UNC Sports Biorhythms for UNC v Michigan State Game, 4:30 Start

    Pretty soft performance all around. My kingdom for a mid-range pull-up jumper. From literally anyone.

    Politics 2 National Guard Members shot near White House

    The difference between them is purely circumstantial, adventitious. Intrinsically, not so different. Not the slightest indication of empathy, compassion, good will toward anyone but their own tribe. And even that, where a glimmer might exist, is self-serving. Anyone who doesn’t see that is...

    Off-Topic Movies Thread

    I read that Ari Aster had it written as a western and had been developing it when the pandemic hit, and he overhauled it to include those topical elements. I appreciated what he was trying to do, but it just got kinda muddled. Agreed that Phoenix was good, as usual. Pascal was fine, everyone...

    Politics Twitter does something right: exposes locations of accounts

    A whole bunch of dumb maga folks and fraudsters are about to learn what a VPN is.

    Off-Topic Movies Thread

    Finally got around to this one, I’d been putting it off, since a 2.5 hour picture that drags us back to the heart of the pandemic wasn’t screaming my name. I give it a B/B-. It tried to pack in way too much and got pretty messy and very violent… but it underscores some important messages...

    Sports Drake Maye attacked (verbally)

    “Attacked”? Sorry but the thread title is as click-baity as the whole stupid dust up.

    Sports RIP Rodney Rogers

    Damn. I’m glad he had a last hurrah with his contributions to that We Beat the Dream Team doc. And a very funny Larry Bird story that involved him. What a great watch that is.

    Politics Epstein Files | Ghislaine Maxwell

    Exactly. I’ve never been all that interested in these files once this administration got ahold of them. Scrubbed, doctored, shredded, who knows. There’s no accountability, and that’s of course by design. This is why he’s destroyed all semblance of checks and balances the country was founded on...

    Politics Bill Maher dines with The Donald

    Maher’s standup is terrible anyway. When he’s funny it’s in the context of his show, and off the cuff. His written bits and monologues on the show were never great. But either way, haven’t watched his show in ages because he’s one of those people who even when you agree with him, you still...

    Sports 2025-2026 NBA Thread - Pelicans fire their HC

    Before the season I put some fun money on Detroit to win the East, it was as much a bet against the field as it was a bet on the Pistons. Plus I’m a huge Cade fan. But they are cookin’ out of the gate. Aside from beating the Rockets, they haven’t played any of the big boys from the West yet...

    UNC Sports Biorhythms for UNC v Navy, 7 pm in The Dean E. Smith Center

    This Luka guy looking pretty solid tonight. Also looks like he’s about 36 years old.

    Incredibly affecting, rang very true. I love One Battle but I think I’m giving this one the nod. I can’t imagine there will be a better picture this year.

    Politics Terror in Charlotte

    Poor ICE just doing their jobs! Plenty of vitriol earned, encouraged, and instigated by various parties, including them. Go fuck yourself, clown.

    Sports 2025-2026 NBA Thread - Pelicans fire their HC

    You’re using generational talent and generational player interchangeably, when there’s a big difference. One is based on potential, the other is based on performance and longevity. You’d be hard pressed to find anyone reasonable who’d not consider Zion and Wemby generational talents. The world...
