Rempe had a target on him after cheapshotting Siegenthaler the last time these two teams played, but refusing to drop the gloves.

Dudes were lining up the scrap before the drop. In its own weird way, this poo poo is all highly choreographed.

You don't see 5 on 5s barely at all anymore.

Yeah it almost seemed set up which is why I asked

lol Donnie's bond is busted

https://twitter.com/CBSNews/status/1775916240248185320?t=Tt5YRJZ8d-gGv0DC1wyzcg&s=19

- surety company isn't licensed for the state
- surety company is letting Donnie keep the money (WHAT) instead of using it as true collateral
- surety company would be pledging over 10% of their net assets, which is against New York law
- clerk has already returned the bond filing for errors

So where's the truth post along the lines of "the CROOKED judge DENIED my PERFECT bond filing. Many people say to me, Donald, we've NEVER seen such perfectly crafted paperwork. They had tears in their eyes when they looked at my forms"

Trump will never be president again

The destitute and in jail is a reach, I fully admit, but he�s never getting the reigns of power again.

I hope with every fiber of my being that you are correct

Speaking as a big contractor employee, I've never, ever seen early completion bonuses cited as a reasoning to cut corners.

Been witness to some fun close-out punch list shitstorms thanks to that. :allears:

They figured out an onboard flight data subsystem memory chip died, but the craft was otherwise fine. So they shot it a message to perform that chip's functions on other chips and the craft woke up.

That's incredible

Still a bit shocked by this one.

Ben Collins is one of NBCNews's best dystopia beat reporters, basically covering a bunch of internet disinformation poo poo. His poo poo's always been very good and he kind of semi-dropped from the public eye in recent months, sounding very burnt out.

The Onion has been up for sale from a while from that herb Jim Spanfeller and G/O media. The general internet has figured the Onion was going to get cut up like undeadspin did.

A mysterious buyer bought the Onion today, forming a company called Global Tetrahedron, the name of the evil corporation mentioned in lots of Onion stories.

These are all connected.
