Houston has, so far, outcoached and outplayed K-State on both sides of the ball. Multiple somebodies (on O and on D) and coaches need to have some pride and step up. It feels like the Wildcats are playing the Chiefs out there. #EMAW

I guess the concept of an uncatchable pass no longer factors into a PI call in Big XII officiating anymore … *sigh* Also, our D looks outmatched. #EMAW

I declare that we can no longer refer to the USA's favorite satire musician as "Weird" Al Yankovic. Everyone is now to refer to him as "Weird" Super Intelligence Yankovic. Thank you for your attention to this matter, ibb cc: @alyankovic.bsky.social

Completely out of the blue opinion here, _Las Azules (Women in Blue)_ is a fun series. If you're able to understand it, watch it in its original Spanish. tv.apple.com/no/show/las-... *Note: I am not a huge cop show/series lover, but this is much more along the lines of telenovela meets comedy.

NEW: The Trump administration keeps denying and downplaying that immigration agents have been detaining Americans. It’s wrong. We’ve found more than 500 U.S. citizens have been held against their will, including handcuffed or held at gunpoint.

I feel like somewhere in this universe the ghosts of Jane Addams, Sinclair Lewis, WEB Du Bois, Ida Wells, Jacob Riis, Crazy Horse, and Teddy Roosevelt are having brunch together and shaking their heads (or facepalming?) at the three ring circus the United States of America is at the moment.

Here’s my optimistic beginning of NFL season post. I’m a KC football fan. I HATE “the chop.” I wish my team would NOT caricature indigenous American cultures as a thematic brand. The Superbowl victories I have been fortunate to experience are amazing. I’d love to root on more success this season! ❤️💛

KC 2 - Banda 2. A draw is better than an “L.” I really thought we’d find one more goal for the 3 points. Take the point and move forward. Hopefully EVERYBODY’s healthy from here on out. #KCBaby 🩵❤️🩵

As a dad of a daughter, a son of a mom (& grandson, etc.), a husband to a wife and general appreciator of women - I have great gratitude to Ms. Steinem for all she did to push for (and to achieve in many cases) equity & justice for women. ✊🏽

OK, fellow USA English speakers, can we talk honestly? When did we decide the proper response to someone telling us “thank you,” was to tell THEM “thank you,” in return? The correct responses are: “you’re welcome,” “my pleasure,” “it was nothing,” “of course,” etc. What are we even doing anymore? 🤨

What's your favorite bible verse? Wrong answers only. (from the Book of MCs, verses 1989 through 1990) "Amps and crossovers under my rear hood; Because the bass is bumpin' from the back of my Fleetwood; They tell us what to do, hell no! Shadrach, Meshach, Abednego"
