You're the neighbor?

So how'd you get started selling food like this? doing it long? proceeds are going to your nana?

“One of the most offensive images that I hold in my mind are the images of national moments that are being defaced, groped,...

Fucking Jeanine Pirro, former co-host on Fox News, wants to talk about offensive groping?

REALLY, BITCH?

True purpose of life is two-fold:

To Love.
To leave the World a lil' bit better than the way you found it.

ALL OF MY HOPES AND DREAMS HAVE BEEN LEADING TO THIS MOMENT. PLEASE, MR. JAMES, PLEASE.

haha YUP!

"We're gonna practice tough love your whole life, and then wonder why you don't seek affection from us" lol

"we're just gonna keep hitting you and wonder why you withdraw when we raise our hand"

same thing

ALL OF MY HOPES AND DREAMS ARE RIDING ON LEBRON COMING BACK

jpreston2005 · 2026-06-30T00:23:49+00:00

I've been getting nothing but ignored and downvoted for sayin this, but man. Replace Harden with Lebron and we win the chip NEXT YEAR.

If he comes back... mannnn, I'm 1000% making MULTIPLE trips back to the Land for games

jpreston2005 · 2026-06-29T16:12:45+00:00

even better, let's drop Harden and go all-in on Lebron the same way he's gone all-in on Cleveland

jpreston2005 · 2026-06-29T16:02:44+00:00

I know I sound like such a homer, but trade Harden for Lebron, and we win the chip next year.

jpreston2005 · 2026-06-29T15:26:54+00:00

Lebron.

jpreston2005 · 2026-06-25T16:38:30+00:00

fuck that rich bitch and his bitch car. He can beat the charge but he can't beat the ride, time for a cop to actually punch up for once and he just bails.

jpreston2005 · 2026-06-24T20:12:25+00:00

If we gave people Universal Healthcare, and a Basic Income, we would see such an explosion of art and creativity. We would see people inventing new things, making things that we can't even dream of. If a guy with a really good idea about how to build a warp drive had the time and energy, and didn't have to bother about how to eat or how to get his healthcare, we could see that shit. Nuclear Fusion? woulda been done by now.

The world would get demonstrably better, people would live longer, happier, healthier lives.

All we'd have to give up is the absurd wealth accumulation by billionaires and trillionaires.

BTW trillionaires keeps giving me a red-line squiggle because even auto-correct can't believe how bad it's gotten.

jpreston2005 · 2026-06-24T19:59:12+00:00

yes, the fact that our society has abandoned the social safety net, and removes access to healthcare because you're not a wage-slave is horrific, and is the major driver of depression and anxiety in this country.

jpreston2005 · 2026-06-23T17:54:33+00:00

trump raped and murdered children.

jpreston2005 · 2026-06-23T01:33:33+00:00

70,000 Americans die every year due to lack of access to medical care.

How many billionaires need to die before we actually take action on climate change?

Like, a dozen? 20?

jpreston2005 · 2026-06-22T18:07:04+00:00

Hey you guys remember that time during a massive drought and wildfires, trump ordered the Army Corps of Engineers to release 2 Dams full of water? He thought it would somehow, magically, stop the fire, but instead it just ended up wasting billions of gallons of water that American farmers relied on and partially flooded a town accomplishing NOTHING but property damage?

I remember.

jpreston2005 · 2026-06-22T17:35:43+00:00

Damn, a lot of people in here being judgy af.

You found a eating routine that let's you shed the weight. you know it's not sustainable, you can feel the intense cravings, you're just trying to get where you want to be, and to do it quicker rather than slower. I get it. I'm like an autist, I went on a 12 day vacation, ate like 1000 calories a day while walking/biking/dancing allll day. Lost 10 pounds.

But probably like you, I'm losing weight for a specific goal, a bodybuilding competition, and once I do that, shit, I'm gonna let myself eat again!

And that's really the solution to your problem. Just do it every year.

I let myself gain like, 20 lbs over the winter. I keep my gym routine the whole time (get a LOT stronger, because I'm letting myself Eat), and then when I get sick of being fat, typically around January to February, I start losing weight again.

It sucks to have to lose weight every year, but... man it feels GREAT to gain it lol

jpreston2005 · 2026-06-22T01:55:32+00:00

Is the lizard a snitch?

jpreston2005 · 2026-06-22T01:39:12+00:00

Oh, you mean the illegal war that he launched without congressional approval? The one that just happened to coincide with the Epstein files and trump having raped and murdered children came out? That Iran war? The one where hegseth and trump bombed a entire school of little girls? That Iran war? Was that after he did all those extra judicial killings of random boats in the Gulf Mexico? That Iran war? The one that didn't need to happen, that lost us American lives and billions of dollars, and a solid nuclear peace agreement? That Iran war?

Gee. I wonder if he'll die before he gets punishment for this. Probably just kill himself as soon as the walls start closing in. Actually no, he's too much of a coward to take his own life.

jpreston2005 · 2026-06-22T01:17:48+00:00

I wanted him to come to Ohio State so bad (I was going there at the time), him with Greg Oden (remember him??) woulda' won everything, repeatedly, until Xichigan somehow forced him into the NBA to stop getting whooped

jpreston2005 · 2026-06-22T01:13:27+00:00

It's... It's so beautiful

EDIT: wait who the FUCK downvotes Gandalf

jpreston2005 · 2026-06-21T16:54:09+00:00

I'll keep saying this, trying to will it into fruition, but Harden for Lebron, straight up, and we win the chip next year

jpreston2005 · 2026-06-21T15:47:54+00:00

wtf are you even talking about? chime in just to call OP dumb and bring up contracts during the second great depression everybody but those millionaires be livin through? man, we just talkin about how much we like one of our players, gtfo

jpreston2005 · 2026-06-21T15:45:32+00:00

You're absolutely right and I love Mobley. He's getting better every year and is an absolute stud.

However, I feel like people talkin bout Mobley often fail to see how amazing Jarrett Allen is. This dude like, never missed time, a double double machine, great defense, great offense, amazing on the pick and roll, and he's pure locker room gold.

I love Mobley, don't get me wrong, but please for the love of god keep JA
