@kylebandujo.bsky.social @alexmcdaniel.co For the more serious Ted Lasso stuff it’s clear that Mae’s shares potential with the 3 barflys determine team ownership. Who do they go to do that? The women’s team members? Alice? Ted? Baz, et al? The city? Bar likely goes to Higgins or the bar flys.

@kylebandujo.bsky.social @alexmcdaniel.co Less serious Ted Lasso comments but notice how Ted says “games” and “practice without correction this year? Is he less invested? The nameplates show Beards name is “Willis Beard”

Matt Ben @mattben.bsky.social · 24/09/2026
@bigscreensports Minor thing but this year in Ted Lasso Ted has repeatedly said “practice” rather than “training” without correction by anyone. Not sure if this is accepting of Ted’s American background or if it’s lazier writing.

The Susan Collins canvasser who stole a package on camera should be charged, but let’s look at the larger picture. The fact that a citizen has to steal to make ends meet is directly caused by republicans.

Apparently people are sharing this far and wide on social media, which I think is horrible. This could cripple ICE operations. PLEASE do not share this.

Alex Pretti was a colleague at the VA. We hired him to recruit for our trial. He became an ICU nurse- I lover working with him. He was a good kind person who lived to help and these fuckers executed him. White. Hot. Rage.
