Watching Passan's expansion candidates video and I never miss a chance to bang this drom: I'm rooting for the "Nashville Stars" BUT I have one "demand" - go out and acquire the rights to use the old Astros Blue and Gold colored kit with the star logo. It's a fantastic look

One of Trump's tells is that when he uses the word "loyalty" he always - ALWAYS - means loyalty to HIM. What he reveals (again) here is that in his mind, he IS the country.

I don't know how much it's "hated" but seems to get a lot of "meh"

In possibly his finest performance! For those who can't get enough Gary Cole there's also this largely forgotten show

and speaking of Claude Akins, I have irrationally found memories of his other, better show

Tammy Rainey @tammybeth.bsky.social · 17/06/2026
the other is so obscure it's hard to even find a good image. I'm not saying I have found memories, I watched it but remember nothing about it, but it DID exist

In Sagal's thread I'm thinking "I recognize all this stuff" but in yours it's around 50/50 folks actually getting obscure enough to name something I don't. So in that spirit I have two answers. One is a show I'm sure isn't forgotten but no one ever discusses it despite the stellar cast:

That's the first time this figure has started with a 1 since sometime in high school. The progression is uneven, up a little, down a little, so I'm not completely done with the 200s I'm sure. But you can't not mark the occasion.

@jamestalarico.bsky.social My man,you literally just took a dump on your entire brand less than a week into the real campaign. WTAF are you doing here, listening to party consultants? That's a recipe for losing the one thing that made you popular. DON'T let them bait you into the zealots' frame.

not the point of the (good) article but the idea that a "conservative Christian" party would advocate the "religious liberty" is a ludicrous level of steelmaning. There whole ideology is to seek religious dominance at the expense of everyone else's liberty.

As I said, there's plenty out there and I have no patience for "prove me wrong!" from someone with no desire at all to shift their views in light of contrary information. But here's a summary to give you (or the fair-minded third-party reader) a starting point

"Doing a lot" is not at all the same as "doing a lot of good" or even necessary. Though you know HE thinks that's what he's saying.

No. I was doing this most of last season & assume there will be a lot more in this one. Jays had a late-April-early-May slump during which they went 4-12. Leaving them 16-20, their worst record of the season. May 8 through the rest of the month they were 13-8 Rest of the season best in the AL

Just some of the women who would fail the IOC sex tests now. None of them are Trans. The IOC insists that their test is based on science, they just won't tell you who the "scientists" were who told them that. They've kept them anonymous.

These scholars just met in Ireland for 3 hours to discuss the science and other issues of leprechauns. Articles will be written eventually.

I posted this elsewhere but to avoid the character limit I offer it here as an image
I offer only circumstantial evidence for this hypothesis but consider:

What if this Greenland fixation is not actually about Greenland per se. What if it's actual purpose is to rationalize the end of NATO in collusion with Putin. Once the US is out, Putin will assume Europe (even with commonwealth allies) cannot stop him Ukraine falls, and other small targets like the Baltics, Hungary switches sides.

China feels no impediment to taking Taiwan. The US annexes Greenland anyway and the canal zone, and for thanks,Putin hands over control of Cuba.

From their point of view, who among the three dictators would see any downside?

Interestingly, ZIPS sees Bo and Okamoto as mostly the same guy: If you adjust the WAR to plate appearances would bring Okamoto to 3.1 WAR and the marginal difference appears to be hits. TBH, if it played out this way the Okamoto would be the (relative) bargain of the off-season by a huge margin.
