Exceptional solidarity from ASU hockey players who have demanded their coach be placed on leave for essentially overseeing the murder of their teammate and have disputed the university’s findings. www.nytimes.com/athletic/764...

Seven Arizona State men’s hockey players asked the university’s president to place the Sun Devils’ coaching staff on administrative leave pending further investigation into the workout that left sophomore transfer Matthew Mayich on life support.

In a 26-page letter sent to ASU president Michael Crow on Monday and obtained by The Athletic, the players disputed numerous findings from the university’s initial review of the Aug. 20 workout, writing that Mayich did not receive water and was provided inadequate medical care after his collapse.

The motorist community needs to clean up its act, especially if drivers expect taxpayers to keep building car lanes.

His points around needing public commitments on police oversight/reform are valid. Part of why the parks were facing cuts at all was because the city is facing police led cost overruns. Next week we need to fully fund parks (which the BET showed support for) and keep police accountable.

Sean Manaea is wearing a "New York Is Love" Mets Pride shirt after pitching six solid innings to beat the Texas Rangers, the MLB's only team without a Pride night. Perhaps coincidence, perhaps not.

i hate when people say evil democrats are republicans. “they don’t support X! they’re a republican!” no, they’re literally an elected democrat. that’s the harder reality to deal with. it’s easy to hate republicans; they’re cartoon villains. but the democratic party is ALSO mostly evil. now what?

oh btw edina yards, lake harriet yards, etc. are LOUSY with anders folk signs. it’s a class war (also if his supporters are mostly rich, they probably already voted in the primary and there’s not as much room for growth in the general, so another point in frazier’s favor i think)

a lie. 2001-2004 was a hateful, harmful, awful era. the “shared bond” was white supremacist solidarity masquerading as patriotism, and the racism and islamophobia that defined the era persist today in the hatred that dictates how people like ilhan omar, omar el-sayed, and zohran mamdani are treated.

reminder that the hivemind gave martha holton dimick a 60% of winning. mary moriarty won by SIXTEEN POINTS. the frey/republican alliance is juiceless in even years until proven otherwise. (see also: CD5 primaries.) i know everyone gets mad at me for punditry but please do not doom unnecessarily

what % odds do you give mary moriarty of beating martha holton dimick (higher
number = better odds for
moriarty)

one really good way to think about elections are going to go is: which races that *should* be competitive are already being treated like they’re done deals? this year, it seems like jon ossoff and roy cooper have basically already won their swing state senate races. extremely good sign for dems.

it’s hilarious that anyone thinks that business owners’ own accounts of why they closed their business are an accurate representation of why they closed their business. they get interviewed as if they are experts, but they will say literally anything if it serves their political narrative.

the icons, as usual, have incredibly short-sighted strategy #bb28 the ideal way to deal with the medieval nonsense is actually to get 2 of the last 3 to be your own loyalists—then you have a 2/3 chance of a win and, supposing everyone is trustworthy, a 2/3 chance of a non-crossovers elimination

here’s an ACTUAL problem: being a long-term substitute comes with all of the stress of being a full-time teacher but with pay that doesn’t match your experience and with few or no benefits. teachers worry about taking time off for family because school districts are so bad at filling these positions

biking is mostly only dangerous because of cars. there would be not much reason to wear a helmet if there were no cars trying (and succeeding) to flatten cyclists on a daily basis. this is my final statement on this matter.

my new conspiracy is that jon ossoff knows he won’t be president (and maybe won’t even run) but he is being positioned by conservatives to be the acceptable “progressive choice” for vice president to a conservative democratic nominee (aka kamala harris)

this is why i’ve always been pretty confident frey doesn’t have a future besides maybe a state house/state senate seat in a handpicked district where the primary will be favorable to him (which is presumably why he moved to SW - that wouldn’t happen in NE).

birdo 🏳️‍🌈 @mercurymn.bsky.social · 20/08/2026

the frey machine thinks they are so powerful and popular, but minneapolis elections are so well-tailored to his strengths and every other election just isn’t. frey basically doesn’t have a coalition if he doesn’t get his comparatively huge turnout in his big wards like 13.
