PS: If you do want to watch a hockey show in the wake of HR, watch Shoresy, also from Jacob Tierney, which features bro hockey players confronting toxic masculinity, Indigenous characters that are actually powerful, not just symbolically powerful, and a bunch of crazy cool women characters.

i want to know what the baseball players are talking about when they're standing around the bases together, but only if it's something fun like gossip or pop culture recs or plans to hang out later. if it's just baseball stuff i do not want to know

Oh shit the White Sox are literally on a mission from God
Letter to Jerry Reinsdorf from the pope

I was pleased to receive the kind letter that you
sent
following the game that took place at Rate Field on August 11, 2026. I am most grateful for this thoughtful gesture.
As I have noted,
"sport can truly become a school of life,
where all can learn that abundance does not come from victory at any cost, but from sharing, from respecting others and from the joy of walking together" (Letter Life in Abundance, 6 February In this spirit, it is my hope that the White Sox will
continue to foster bonds of friendship and solidarity people, and thus bear hopeful witness to the possibility of living and working together in peace.
With
these sentiments, I willingly invoke the Almighty's
abundant blessings upon you and your loved ones.
From the Vatican, 9 September 2026

It’s very simple. A reality TV host became dictator because he turned down a role for Sharknado 4 and that’s why the king of outer space, who cheats at Diablo, got to kill Africa. Now the economy is controlled by a sex cult that has something to do with Harry Potter fanfic because of robots.

A nice thing: Vince Gilligan won his first Emmy for writing last night because BREAKING BAD's sole writing Emmy was for "Ozymandius," which he surely had a huge hand in shaping but is solely credited to Moira Walley-Beckett. Matthew Weiner would never. DID never, in fact. Vince truly is the best.

"They're not misunderstanding the film; they're co-opting a message"
Screencap from the interview linked in the quoted post

Marlow Stern (the interviewer):  You have one of the most renowned replies in Twitter history. Elon Musk tweeted out, “Take the red pill,” then Ivanka Trump enthusiastically wrote, “Taken!” to him, and then you replied, “Fuck both of you.” I’m curious how you feel about the co-opting of “The Matrix” by those on the right who don’t really seem to understand its messaging.

Lilly Wachowski: I mean, I can’t sit in a room and explain the movie to every single person who watches it. Even if I did sit in a room with Elon Musk and Ivanka Trump — yikes — it doesn’t matter. They’re not misunderstanding the film; they’re co-opting a message. And that’s what fascists do: They co-opt the messages of progressives and use it to their benefit to confuse and obfuscate what is going on and the intention of their ideology. They do it with everything. They do it with Martin Luther King Jr. Look at how they’ve changed the idea of what antisemitism is.

not NOT the plot of Practical Magic 2
the famous "feeding stray cats to coyotes" tweet but altered so it says: "My neighbor told me the curse keeps eating his love interest so I asked how many love interests he has and he said he just goes to the shelter and gets a new love interest afterwards so I said it sounds like he's just feeding love interests to the curse and then his daughter started crying."

Fashion critic Robin Givhan on the Met Gala/Galliano mess www.nytimes.com/2026/09/01/o...
Critics of the now-canceled exhibition are right that the designer should not be venerated. The proposed exhibition on Mr. Galliano's work was an acknowledgment of his influence, not a judgment of his morality.
Hagiography was not preordained.

The Met Gala was an entirely different concern. And that's what should have been canceled. It never should have been attached to this exhibition.

This is pretty fucking wild. I had assumed in a worst case scenario he would target blue zip codes and toss ballots based on technicalities but this is even worse than I imagined.
Not only is this system astonishingly untested, USPS has simultaneously implemented an
impracticable zero percent failure rate.
13 When ballots are submitted to USPS in large-volume
batches, if any one ballot in the batch cannot be verified against the Portal, all ballots in that
batch will be rejected. For example, if a state election official brings a batch of 10,000 ballots to
USPS and USPS is unable to match just one of those ballots against the Portal – because, for
example, someone has recently changed their name after marriage or they’ve moved – then
USPS would refuse to mail the remaining 9,999 ballots as well. As the whistleblower notes,

this is very simple and applies to them all
At the same time, Cunningham is a backup who is probably past the midway point of her career, and it makes total sense for her to be thinking about what comes next. There are plenty of after-basketball paths Sophie Cunningham could explore that do not involve further emboldening vile bigots obsessed with driving trans people from public life. But none of those paths are as easy or as lucrative as this one. That's why she's taking it.
