"California couple pleads guilty to plotting $1B Ponzi scheme"
AP:
What Troi's role should have been; adding Q to Picard
I still think she should have been diplomatic corp instead of *handwave* whatever she was. Because that's a needed role, as a partial telepath she would have been AMAZING at it, and the implication that much of the reason the Enterprise exists is to get her to places is powerful.— PHCOFFIN.TXT (@hellsop) January 26, 2020
Well the romulan that made her impersonate a Tal Shiar officer seemed to have realized her true job too ;)— Mario Landgraf (@sirlanda) January 26, 2020
I saw someone on Reddit saying Q should show up in s2 of Picard with de-aging CGI so he looks like 80s deLancie, then when he sees Older Picard he changes to Current Older deLancie to match, as a way to annoy Picard. I am here to say that: is a great idea— Ryan North (@ryanqnorth) January 23, 2020

If you feel at any time like your job sucks, spare a thought for these two Thai policemen who had to re-enact a couple having sex in public.— Jerome Taylor (@JeromeTaylor) January 23, 2020

Girl i dated had an outside cat who really liked me & one day when i went out for a smoke there was a bird heart placed on the wall where i usually sat.

There's so much to unpack in the Kansas K-State brawl but we should take a moment to appreciate the Jayhawk staying in character to solemnly cover his mascot eyes and look away because he can't bear to watch pic.twitter.com/1Z4RFDI7KH— Josh Billinson (@jbillinson) January 22, 2020

Guy opposite me on the train has a Hufflepuff logo on his coat and I love it, so I finally gather the courage to ask where he got it, and told him that I too, am a Hufflepuff.

The Dubious Goals Committee
Wikipedia:
Dubious Goals Committee is a committee in the English football leagues which adjudicates in any instance where the identity of the scorer of a goal is disputed.
The Premier League Committee meets on an ad hoc basis, whenever a disputed goal is brought to its attention. This is generally around three or four times each season.
