PhD candidate Zoe Tzanis joins me to discuss their recent research on ESPN’s coverage of racial tension during the 2024 WNBA playoffs, the impact of traditional media platforming social media content, and why trolls aren’t the ones creating public narratives. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/g...

In the before the internet times—reading sports illustrated cover to cover was the distraction

Sydney Somerndike feels right for the season

This ish was not fair (and I am so happy)

The refugees aren't to blame for the war.

Most of life has been defined by giant corporations demanding (and getting) all the right and privileges of individual people so I don’t think it’s asking much for them to also face the same burdens and responsibilities. Sucks to suck, man.

The best analogy to DeAndre Ayton is a generic Democratic Member of Congress. Tone-deaf, out of touch, unrealized potential, not a team player, no spine, can always count on to not do the right thing

roki vs the giants is some real stoppable force vs movable object energy

Harris/Walz would’ve won if those fucking establishment consultant hacks had just gotten out of the way and let them say “These freaks are weird!” every day for three months and you’ll never convince me otherwise

I wish you well in your adult literacy journey

“For the good of society, your son will work in the trades. Oh, my son? My son will be a titan of politics and industry. For the good of society, your daughter will be a tradwife. Oh, my daughter? My daughter will host a lucrative rightwing podcast.”

Offenbach Barcarolle, by Carol Bove, 1971

Women got paid and said we will show you why we deserved it

One of the defining hallmarks of our modern age is that people in charge of good things are willing to make them incrementally worse for a chance to make more money, knowing most people are powerless to stop it.

One of the toughest conversations we are having daily. Something so safe and effective is being questioned, and children are dying.

For a lot of people, chatbots are essentially Narcissus's pond

That's my sweet mama front and center! Gathered 2000 signatures herself

trying to govern a 21st Century digital republic based on 18th Century ideas is going pretty much how you'd expect

No powerful person in my lifetime has degraded American discourse and vilified, dehumanized and demonized those who disagree with him more than Donald Trump. He and his sycophants are blaming the left for the world they themselves built, and their complaints should not be given a moment's credence.

Almost 500k more than last year. HALF A MIL. And all without major media recognition/amplification.

$89 plus fees for the 89th anniversary today of the bombing of Gernika (Guernica) by fascists. My grandfather was an immigrant from a town a few km away. So let’s go immigrants and fuck fascists. #ptku #charitibundibowl @edsbs.bsky.social @hollyanderson.bsky.social Edsbscharitybowl.com

The amount of misinformation we’re getting about an incident that just occurred in front of 1,500 news reporters is truly the metaphor of our generation.

anyway, here I am watching Blake Treinen pitch again

This dude is a hero and fuck ICE. But also/always, Muck Fichigan. #charitibundibowl #goirish edsbscharitybowl.org

This feels like the religious sects out here who believe that illness is a sign that God is punishing you. Different root, same idea: sickness is a sign of weakness.

i mean just how was this a touchdown lol

Not really a complaint or whatever. We've long been used to being both "widely acknowledged as being everywhere" and "kind of invisible." Much like the Holy Spirit

we're gonna win

Because I do what Mina tells me to do. #bowdowntowashington #charitibundibowl

PTKU is clearly the IU of the #charitibundibowl. (Curbstomping blue bloods in the money and talent race, like it's hard?) As such, this is honor of IU's most recent victory over UM in football: 20-15 in 2024. Go Hoosiers, Go Sharks. @edsbs.bsky.social @hollyanderson.bsky.social edsbscharitybowl.com

Don't have to ask me twice! Anyone else want me to match a worthy PTKU donation? #charitbundibowl

they are calling it the perfect summary of the "keep men out of women's sports" movement

In a world of myriad possibilities, be a Norm

@hollyanderson.bsky.social @edsbs.bsky.social @jacketdan.bsky.social $2 for every year since the first meeting between Notre Dame and USC (1926), plus $1 for every good reason USC has to stop playing the rivalry. Which is zero. ZERO REASONS YOU TROJAN COWARDS! (Oh and plus fees)

not sure if this includes today but, he has more total bases than... • Josh Bell • William & Willson Contreras • Jackson Merrill • Austin Riley • Byron Buxton • Corey Seager • Ketel Marte • Kyle Tucker • Ronald Acuña • Bobby Witt

PT 👏👏 KU 👏👏

In honor of the days we have been Lou Holtz free (+fees). GO BLUE SHARKS #PTKU @edsbs.bsky.social @hollyanderson.bsky.social

Jokes on the Dawgs, PTKU crossed that line first. BLUE SHARKS!

“Feud with the Pope” is BACK as a likely Wikipedia section heading after a 400-year gap.

trans women have a biological advantage at being hot now

Somewhere I have a picture of me and a hipster dude in an A’ja tshirt standing in line for portapotties at a music festival in Boise

Would be cool if there were consequences for intentionally lying to Congress! The state does not force anyone to immunize. Parents already refuse vaccines bc of misinfo like this. The HepB vaccine is one of the most-tested & studied therapeutics of all time. It’s safer than most of your daily life

We did a lot of reading on the Just War Doctrine when we were making "The Good Place." tl;dr "I want that oil" is not one of the justifications

That's my power straight!! Deserved
