A 'hot blob' and an 'earth tilt' will make the Chicago winter catastrophic and uninhabitable

Apocalyptic winter might be upon us. Why? I think it's inhabitable winter. We might just have to go out of country... High pressure, massive ocean heat wave up in North Pacific. The blob... They're saying 2013-2014 had nothing on this blob.

Chicago winter 2025-26 was close to normal (0.8°F below average) with below-average snowfall. Far from 'catastrophic and uninhabitable.'

The College Football Playoff committee is intentionally keeping JMU out because they don't want any 'presidents' in the bracket

I think it's a anti-PFT thing. I think maybe the college football playoff committee has gone woke and they don't want any presidents in their bracket. Makes sense. It's sad. I mean, just fast forward 20 years, Trump University probably will be blacklisted too.

The committee rankings are based on performance and strength of schedule, not a political aversion to 'presidents'.

If South Florida wins out, they absolutely deserve to be in the College Football Playoff.

If South Florida runs the table... I also understand that South Florida is deserved to go in. Because they went and they beat Florida, you know, in the swamp. So that, you know, that's a, that's a big, big time win.

Whether a G5 champion with a signature P4 win 'deserves' a spot is a matter of opinion, though USF did beat Florida in 2025.

James Madison deserves a playoff spot because they are undefeated on Saturdays.

One school [James Madison] has not lost on a single Saturday... Undefeated on Saturdays. The other school [South Florida] has lost twice on Saturdays... You better hope to God that it's on a Friday if you don't put the undefeated on Saturday team in.

The merit of a team's record based on the day of the week is inherently subjective and satirical.

The Tesla-SpaceX Car Is a Lethal Public Weapon

I think we're going zero to 60 in like 0.8 seconds, which just feels like a lethal weapon for the public to have. I don't know how I feel about this. It's cool to see on a track. I don't know if it's gonna be cool to see on a highway.

This is a safety judgment about a proposed vehicle and is inherently evaluative.

Penny Hardaway's roster investment is a genius move

If Penny Hardaway has money, putting two to three million dollars in your roster—if your team does well, you could probably make millions more on your contract. It's actually a genius move. More guys should do it.

Whether this is a genius strategy is a subjective evaluation.
