Did I go to the Popehat game? Is the Pope a White Sox fan?

Cannot find anything about this mural I saw yesterday in Chicago, apparently dated 2025, on Western about 18th Street on north part of rail embankment, apparently depicting a soldadera. I love it. Reminds me of the pioneer-theme public art you see out west, but rarely here.

On the other site: Politicalmath: They're going to target and kill every Republican they can! Reply: We don't know the motive yet, wait. PM: Yes we do! Here's AutismCapital! You'll never admit you're wrong, and you'll yell at your cat for your hurt feelings! ... PM: *never admits he's wrong*

Politicalmath on Xitter: The left is going to target and kill every effective Republican they can find

Politicalmath: When you find out you're wrong, you'll never apologize. You'll never admit it. You'll fall into a hole and yell and your cat about how mean reality is to your poor feelings.

I didn't even recognize Alison Bree in those Macy's commercials except for her voice. Looks so different to me.

Very proud to have helped with this brief. (It helps that smart economists did all the real work, including the Simpsons opening.)

John Mulaney announces free tickets for his Wrigley show in July if you conceived a baby after the announcement but before the show, and free tickets if your teen quit smoking. Jokes? @wgntv.com trying to make it happen by putting email addresses in chron.

Three related things I dislike about Trumpism: 1. MAGA lies all the time, about everything, sometimes for no reason. 2. Some believe the lies without reservation. 3. Others who once understood the truth can be dissuaded from it after years of hearing the lies repeated. J6 was just a "protest"!

Aside from the bad legal take, you don't normally want imitate the people who cracked down after the Reichstag fire.

Dunno who needs to hear this, but Costco has Coke in their food court now or soon (if not already). Cup on the left I got Monday, and cup on the right I got today with my hot dog.

Anyone who believes this would also believe that the Biden administration was in on the coverup. It's Elon Musk's pitch. Again, funny to see Musk turn on Trump, but I firmly don't believe more unhinged conspiracy theories is the answer to too many conspiracy theories.

Frank Bednarz @bednarz.bsky.social · 09/07/2025

I agree. Like, what is this? Most of this has already been disclosed or described (CDs with child porn). Does not imply what Glenn Beck wants his audience to gather. It's amusing to see Trump devoured by the conspiracy theorists he encouraged for years, but this just isn't sound thinking.

Grok says Adolf Hitler would best deal with the problem.

Frank Bednarz @bednarz.bsky.social · 08/07/2025

I mused that it's not surprising that an AI trained on the site would respond this way, and it doubled-down. When I noted that grok itself called it a toxic trope, it decided that it's good, actually. Grok's just (((noticing))).

Meanwhile on the other site, the resident AI, grok, has decided to go full antisemitic.

Update on securities strike suits, which have evolved since we filed a motion to intervene 7.5 years ago(!) Intervention granted! Strike suit plaintiffs violated PSLRA (15 U.S.C. §78u–4(c)(1)) and Rule 11. hlli.org/wp-content/u...

Happy Casimir Pulaski Day to those who celebrate (mostly Illinois government). Good day for a paczki and celebrating those who fight for self-representation and against foreign hegemony.

The best rhetorical defense of J6ers is they were repeatedly, cynically, lied to by grifters & a petty conman who just wanted to feel important as the subject of an underwear pants gnome putsch. Instead, the pastor tells whopper lies of his own about being a peaceful protestor.
