I would loooooove to see Democrats with a trifecta in 2028 (knock wood) institute a 50% wealth tax on anyone worth more than, I dunno, $800 billion dollars. And if it only applies to a single US citizen, so be it.

I have to explain to my kids all the time that they’ve been living through a highly abnormal period of American history. They don’t know anything else.

My feed is absolutely filled with NFL posts so I guess I’m gonna have to stop scrolling on BlueSky on Sundays for the next few months.

That’s an excellent way to put it.

Right. Which is why the true problem facing America right now isn’t really Donald Trump; it’s Donald Trump’s voters.

I think he is truly only interested in trappings and monetization. But he has a very severe personality disorder, and he’s an idiot, and therefore he has been very bad at understanding how to effectively achieve his goals.

I mean banning any book is retrograde and stupid, but imagine banning one of the crown jewels of American literature…

You left out War, which was what really made them big. But I would say that Achtung Baby is easily their best album. Better than Joshua Tree.

Also, companies will start mandating that all employees integrate piles of clothes into their workflow.

I hope everyone in Canada and everywhere else recognizes that, because of the nature of our (non-parliamentary) system, we don’t have a realistic path to get rid of him for the next 2 years. He is widely hated now, but we’re stuck with him. Few Americans agree with his Canada-bashing nonsense.

Scott Mintzer @scottmintzer.bsky.social · 17/09/2026

That’s a plausible interpretation. But don’t forgot how the GOP-operative complex works. It could also be pure grift and incompetence.

So Josh, can you please tell me why we keep getting news stories about how Warsh is “under pressure” from Trump? There’s literally nothing that Trump can do to him! You might as well say that Donald Trump is “under pressure” from me!

@sixersnba.bsky.social what's a guy gotta do to buy season tickets?? I have submitted my name for information multiple times, starting over a month ago, and nobody has gotten back to me. I can't chat with a rep... I can't get anyone on the phone... I had tickets 2 years ago and it wasn't this hard.

This is without doubt one of the most fun parts of having a kid. One of my sons decided, around that same age, that the “Jose” of “no way Jose” could be more widely evoked in exclamations. He used to say stuff like “Oh man, Jose.”

If your judgement is so poor that you think you should listen to RFKJ rather than your pediatrician, there’s nothing I nor anyone else can do. If people have agency, you need to acknowledge the consequences of their agency rather than shifting the blame elsewhere.

Amitriptyline is very commonly used as a first trial, but if it didn’t work, there are tons of good options.

I have literally never in my life gotten the date wrong for a concert. But apparently you’ve had not one, but two different guys do this??

This is a highly underrated point. And it’s why the Dem party should be declaring *open war* on SCOTUS right now. There’s the possibility that you get them to materially modify future rulings.

If you’re a football fan, you’ve seen the latest study showing that at least 25% of NFL players get CTE, and probably much more. This is your regular reminder that American football is a bloodsport and should not exist.

I agree this is depressing. But also wonder how much word choice / framing influences the responses. Would like to see a *lot* more polling data on this.

I do this all the time, except that I live in Philly, so it’s a soft pretzel rather than a donut.

He’s an extremely savvy politician, definitely not progressive, though perhaps he might be capable of being moved in progressive directions sometimes because of his savvy. However, he is a major supporter of Israel, which will make him unelectable in a national Dem primary.

Neither AOC nor Shapiro is electable as President (for completely different reasons).

share.inquirer.com/3SgaoH Infantino just concluded a highly successful World Cup. That he now finds himself clinging to the FIFA Presidency by his fingernails has to go down as one of the greateat political missteps in decades. A truly breathtaking feat of hubris, misjudgment, and stupidity.

Europe maintains World Cup boycott threat after Gianni Infantino’s FIFA crisis meeting

UEFA on Thursday reiterated that it had lost confidence in Infantino, and said conditions to withdraw its threat had not been met. The boycott would start with next month's under-20 women's World Cup.

You left out the most legitimate critique of all, which is: will they have any chemistry? And this is completely unknowable, because honestly, has the NBA ever seen a roster like this??? I think it’s going to be a major challenge for Nurse to figure out how to get the most out of them.

This is just a very large-scale and severe demonstration of the principle that when you play too hard to win your primary, you screw yourself for the general election.

Lindsay Graham died. Meanwhile, the World Cup semifinal matches should be pretty awesome.

This is why I don’t mind some of the more normie Dems — the smartest ones are *moveable* on issues, and that’s the most important thing right now. I would love to have a more progressive governor than Shapiro, but he is a very savvy pol, and thus he will always be moveable.
