    I am finally buying new basketball shoes. Since I last did this, they came up with like three more ways to tighten and fasten them. So as an old jump shooter with a history of ankle problems who still tries to defend and appreciates long-term reliability, what are the best ones?

    He lost 26 pounds in 23 days. He lost 26 pounds in 23 days. He lost 26 pounds in 23 days. Think about what this means about the conditions and treatment in these camps. What this means for people there for longer. For children who need nutrition to grow.

    After 23 days, ICE finally released Francisco Erwin Galicia—a Dallas-born U.S. CITIZEN •He lost 26 pounds b/c they starved him •They denied him showers •They crammed him in a tiny space w/60 men How much longer y’all who support 45 staying silent?🤔

    Depressing theory: The chief political correspondent for the New York Times is basically Chris Cillizza but less of a Mr. Peanut Butter human golden retriever

    I'm tempted to make a joke about Kawhi having the Raptors saved as "Free Food" in his phone. But the truth is, he's always been very serious about getting discounted food.

    I will never, ever understand how sports team owners get away with this shit. Angry mobs should be descending on their homes.

    Calgary council voted last night to cut $60-million from the city budget, everything from 911 service and disaster preparedness to policing and buses will be reduced. The list of cuts is 23 pages long:

    This tweet reminded me that my dad had to sit next to Rodney Dangerfield on a cross country flight once. He said it was the worst flight he had ever been on because Rodney wouldn't quit doing his shtick.
