  1. Yes. For starters, one thing he actually said, the other he didn't. Then if you want to engage in good faith you can start to parse out what he actually meant by what he said, but the twitter personalities you bring in here aren't interested in that.
  2. The standards on quoting from your post contribution keep getting worse and worse. There was no quote told to him, unless you mean the "so called 'don't say gay' bill" which she air quotes. She says, "which he says will kill kids". That's not a quote.
  3. Just add a 'd' at the end of 'Hol' and you got it.
  4. Nice original tweet that quotes Buttigieg as saying "that's right" even though he never actually said those words.
  5. Another reason journalists happen to lean more liberal/progressive is because part of the job involves the idea of exposing or holding accountable. Conservatism is called such because it seeks to conserve - to hold on to how things have been. Some amount of that is fundamentally at odds with a profession that requires a willingness or eagerness to do the opposite.
  6. It's hilarious that the "find local showings" button on the website takes you to a page that shows four showings at the Rococo Theater in Lincoln.....and that's it
  7. what in the actual f#&% is "letters and sciences"?
  8. In one of Jon Stewart's legendary conversations with Bill O'Reilly, he broke this down well. Basically, he said that of course his worldview (and the worldviews of people in journalism) will effect the way they see things. But there's a distinction between that and ideological or 'activist' news entertainment. They're different categories alltogether, which is why even if NPR is left leaning (because journalists are left-leaning folks generally) it's nowhere in the ballpark of Fox News/Breitbart/Jezebel/Young Turks.
  9. He was a 3* in high school, aka 5 years ago. Now he's a two-time 2nd team All-Big 12 player at a position we need playmakers at. Bringing up the stars of a player out of high school when they've been playing at a higher level for years is hilariously stupid. Imagine if the Seahawks didn't want Richard Sherman in 2011 because he was a 2 star recruit in 2005
  10. And by the way the rule is written, runningbacks commit targeting violations more than defensive backs do. But we all know the real reason the rule is there, and we all know that it will be enforced one way and ignored the other.
  11. Something tells me that Florida's sex conversations bill isn't going to apply to references to cisgendered or heterosexual examples. Just a hunch.
  12. Nice timing on John Oliver's trucking bit:
  13. CaN yOu PoInT oUt To Me WhErE mY pOsT sAiD tHaT tHeY'Re ThE sAmE?
  14. I wonder if Jim Crow laws literally said things like, "Disenfranchise racial minority voters with extremely hard literacy tests"? If they didn't, I wonder how many clowns in the early 1900's defended them because they didn't literally spell out their intended effects in practice.
  15. Today I learned that twitter determines if newspapers can report on stories.
  16. But it still exists. And even raises money for chairity every year.
  17. Oh you made it very, very, abundantly, unnecesssarily clear, and people rightfully mocked your position on it.
  18. Be that as it may, our staff made plenty of mistakes, and moral ones at that, in that quest to help that were even very apparent at the time.
  19. Definitely don't need 50% of that.
  20. @Hooked on Huskers do you have like a google alert setup every time there's a context where you can share this image? Can't believe you didn't share the other one with the connected second deck.
  21. It's already sucked for us for a long time. This is beyond suckage.
  22. Make up your mind. Did he refer to him as a white supremacist, or did he insinuate that he was a white supremacist? Those aren't the same.
  23. I would like an apology for Biden not canceling my student loan debt doubt I'll get it What does Rittenhouse want an apology for that he deserves acknowledgment from Biden on?
  24. You nailed it! I'm sure Scott, who has played under or coached with Bill Walsh, Tom Osborne, Bill Parcells, Bill Belicheck, Tony Dungey, Mike Tomlin, Jon Gruden and Coach Kelly, has forgotten how to practice in such a way as to make an offense run well.
  25. This was the same game where Suh got flagged for a personal foul for "slamming the quarterback into the ground". Didn't illegally tackle, just....tackled too hard.
