Bro, the Pope sent the White Sox letter, they’re going to the World Series.
Letter: 

To Jerry Reinsdorf
Chairman of the Chicago White Sox
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
2026).
In this spirit, it is my hope that the White Sox will
continue to foster
bonds of friendship
and solidarity among
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
Pope Leo XIV

Man listening to a UK Labour pol dance around actually answering a question and I can see the appeal of a lying/deluded right winger who will at least fucking say something definitive.

One thing thats been nice to see in Seattle is a real proliferation of actually protected bike lanes, like concrete barriers not flex sticks. Makes things a little more complicated for my job but that's fine.

BREAKING: In Seattle Mayor Katie Wilson's new proposed city budget being released Tuesday, there is no projected deficit through 2030. Given the state of the projected deficit over the past many years, this is quite an achievement.

So ideally what we ought to do is impeach Trump, Vance, Hegseth and Rubio for waging an illegal war and then charge them with a bunch of crimes for waging an illegal war (misappropriation of funds, at a minimum) and then send them to jail forever. Not a likely outcome, but the correct one.

Seems appropriate to remember that democratic politics has /never/ been a calmly rational debate, its always included a lot of hyperbolic rhetoric with tenuous connection to reality.

Last time I went to Al Mutanabe Street in Baghdad was in 2012 when I took Robert Fisk there. 14 years later here I am leaving it and going back home at 9 PM Baghdad time. The situation in Baghdad used to be drastically different back then; too much death everywhere, terrorism, sectarian conflict.

RS with your home river. The humble Nisqually, which runs along my family's farm in SW Pierce Co. WA. Its one of the least developed rivers on the east side of Puget sound, with only 2 major dams and no significant towns along its banks. The delta is a national wildlife refuge.

-a vital part of the foodways of Wallingfordian culture in the late 20th century

Realizing the extent to which this is true wildly changed my opinions about how to deal with Trumpism, since they're never going to be satisfied unless they're actively dominating everyone else. You can't give them some concessions and go back to the status quo: they're reactionary revolutionaries.
