Once all these charming old people leave, I will be completely dominating my physical therapist’s waiting room.

We haven’t run a satire of David Brooks in six years. Think it’s time for another. #McSweeneys

Very thankful my football team is garbage this year so I can take a Sunday to binge East of Eden, which I find to be a remarkable retelling of the book.

In all the movies you’ve seen and books that you have read, has ever the guy ordering the public execution been the good guy?

Claimed all his ties to Russia were a hoax. Started a war with Iran no one but the aged and depraved wanted. Then paid Russia for oil when things went bad. 4-D chess at its finest.

Watching an audio-less stream of the Sixers' blue-and-white scrimmage game because I am a sicko. JB just subbed in for LeBron. That's a sentence I never thought I'd write. #Sixers

I grew up watching Denny Doyle play for the Red Sox, so I can’t help but respect. And don’t even get me started on John Denny for the Phils.

Am suddenly overcome with an unbearable wave of dread. What has become of this sordid world? What have I done to deserv… oh wait, just realized I am about to watch my Red Sox play an elimination game at Yankee Stadium.

Eric Schmitt doomscrolls in a Senate restroom stall. As notifications of delivered packages of Hawkeyes jerseys pile up back in his office, he suddenly realizes why his ticket for the “Tigers” game this weekend is at the zoo.

Purposely picking the least popular side on every issue, even the ones your followers support, is called a “Trump Dump.”

The sun just made an appearance here for the first time in five days, and what, I'm supposed to thank it for returning after abandoning us? I'm supposed to be grateful for this seriously messed-up relationship?

She's much likelier to win Senate, but also not running for president pulls the field to the left more than running would. Running means she has the leftmost lane locked up and everyone else is competing over the rest. Not running means those votes are up for grabs, they're worth trying to get.

Ah yes, USC vs Rutgers, a classic Big Ten football rivalry on a Saturday afternoon. College football is so awesome.

At the point now, that when NESN doesn’t show Rutschman greet the pitcher at the end of a good inning, I reflexively yell, “WTF!” #RedSox

Seems I have an impersonator. Aside from trying to swindle writers, the worst thing about this is the sign-off.

An email from someone pretending to be me to a writer.

The email signs off with "Keep being awesome" ugh.

ESPN is so, so broken. It's just one game into the season, guys. Lordy.

People are what they appear to be. Beyond that, unless they can cite specific ACT sequences for their cell or mitochondrial DNA that somehow defy appearances, it's all in their mind.
I've met so many people who look extremely European in every way and tell me they're Jewish. Well, maybe there are a few OG "Jewish ACT" sequences in there somewhere, but clearly not many!
Where is the list of these ACT sequences?

I haven’t seen the movie, and my guess is that when I do I will like it, BUT (butt) the whole framing of it being a symbol of anti-corporation resistence feels really silly.

We had a Havanese (RIP, Mabel) and had previously been cat people, so I pushed hard for this entry.
