I know memes come and go, but we're probably only 5 or so years from 67 becoming a popular uniform number in the pros. I mention this because everyone knows Spencer Jones picked his number because he likes the "7 8 (i.e. ate) 9" joke.

Cc on the Yankees game just read "Orson Welles made a great throw there", that probably explains why they have 5 errors so far. Nevertheless, he remains one of the greats.

Seems like if you're going to make a national story out of Hasan Piker, who campaigned a few times with the Democratic Senate candidate in Michigan, saying Israel causes antisemitism, you should also make a national story out of the favorite intellectual of the US Vice President supporting Hitler.

"De-Trumpification" has to be one of the top agenda items if Dems win power. All the lawlessness and every last one of his efforts to turn DC into an imperial capital should be undone.

There is no Super Intelligence. There is no Department of War. There is no Lake America. There is no Gulf of America. There is no Fort Bragg. Any media outlet or platform that spreads these lies is an enemy of the people, determined to undermine democracy. Make note.

It's what explains why Musk runs roughshod over environmental or consumer-safety laws, and Meta thumbs its nose at corporate-tax laws: experience has taught them to expect no punishment. It's elite impunity in practice: when you're a star, they let you do it.

It's fascinating to learn how many more kids die in ATV accidents every year than in e-bike accidents, then observing that there is a moral panic about kids riding e-bikes but not about kids riding ATVs.

I know media consolidation means good ideas like this don't get made anymore, but I really do believe in my "Paul Blubs: Mall Carp" movie. Animated, Paul lives in the mall water feature & refuses to believe that malls are dying, until one day they announce they're draining his water feature.

Staring down a round number school reunion, and I don't think it's uncommon to be feeling a little anxiety about needing to have some accomplishment, etc. to talk about for the inevitable "so what you been up to?" conversations that come with that. Luckily, I have a cool bird feeder, so I'm good.

The Chair Fight is common in retail and comes down to control. My first thought that it’s particularly discriminatory to pregnant women. The second is the extremely fuzzy definition of “fitness standards” and how those are measured.

We need a party that starts out with a sense of its own convictions: Good government, an equitable and just society, zero tolerance for dictators, capitalist vultures, and foreign genociders. This is basic human morality and people are showing right now that this is what they thirst for.

The death penalty is a moral abomination. State-sanctioned barbarism pushed by incompetent morons and sanctioned by the Supreme Court. Absolute ghoul shit. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

The lone woman on Tennessee's death row was still alive after she was administered two lethal injections, her lawyer said in a motion seeking to halt her execution Wednesday night, a stunning development after the Supreme Court had stepped in to allow the state to put her to death.
At 8:26 p.m. local time, witnesses said
"executioners had injected both syringes of lethal injection chemicals and Pike is still alive and snoring," her lawyers said in a federal court filing.
They said Pike "has not lost consciousness and still has a heartbeat," and that curtains to the death chamber "have gone down twice."

Again, much of Pete Hegseth’s deal is the only skill his job demanded for a long time was keeping a trim figure to be conventionally pretty for stay-at-home moms watching daytime tv. His job was “be pretty,” but he knows that’s a girl job, so he’s deeply insecure and is trying to make it a boy job.
