Waterloo is not only a great pop single, it’s the best Eurovision song ever. I say that as a Gay without the Eurovision gene so take that at face value. #AT40

Ok what is up with the Braves' organist? Before the commercial break, they were playing Take Five by Dave Brubeck (yes, really, took me 30 seconds to figure it out) and just now they played "I'm a Little Teapot". Not complaining, just confuzzled.

That thing when you go to look up a fact, and you find that you wrote the authoritative article nearly 30 years ago that establishes the details behind the fact. Part of the irony of being cited heavily by Wikipedia, but being deemed not noteworthy enough for an entry.

If you are creating a fantasy species or a fantasy race, please, please, please, make it clear how to make the name plural. For example, if I said there was a rose-viola hybrid flower called a riola, is it a bouquet of riolas? Or a bouquet of riola? #AmEditing

John Roberts' friend and defender is quoted in the piece, saying they shouldn't be shaming Roberts for the wreckage and ruin he's brought to this country because of "civility." The bullies always cry "civility" when the victims push back in the slightest.

It never ceases to amaze me that the sort of men who claim women are too impulsive and emotional to be leaders are the same ones who swear sober men become completely incapacitated in reason and empathy in the presence of a drunk woman.

Real men understand that even if they're doing something to help women already in society, there's still more they can do. If you're off feeling sorry for yourself that women are this enraged and ready to burn it down right now? Maybe ask why you're feeling that way.

The big lesson from the Biden era is that you can't be worried about what people will claim is politicized/weaponized/etc. They will claim that no matter what. None of that should stop you from targeting all of the corruption, and all of the enemies of American democracy.

Some of those above and others, like Ron Johnson, actively participated in encouraging a violent insurrection. Many who knew it was the fault of Donald Trump still caved and refused to convict him of it. But Eric Schmidt is a special kind of immoral evil. He besmirches the Senate I revered.

It’s one thing to rely on faulty evidence while thinking you have a gotcha moment. It’s another thing to start by slimming the witness, gloating, while you lie, being smug afterwards, and refusing to apologize. Schmitt may not be the worst Senator – Mike Lee, Josh Hawley, Ted Cruz are contenders. 2

I first started working in the Senate in 1970–56 years ago. I have loved and revered the institution, worked in it and with it over all these decades, with dozens of senators from both parties. I’ve seen bad stuff and bad people along with great ones. Nothing quite compares to Eric Schmitt. 1

Oh shit the White Sox are literally on a mission from God
Letter to Jerry Reinsdorf from the pope

I 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 In this spirit, it is my hope that the White Sox will
continue to foster bonds of friendship and solidarity 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
