i just told a friend on my couch, "shots fired at the White House" and they responded, in a tired voice, "ok"

Maybe he should’ve gone to Jr’s wedding? (Given the ballroom construction pit, does he even have a bunker to hide in?)

It's a good thing the fascists drove the trans people, women and Black flag officers out of the military, because we might have won had they been involved.

Abraham Lincoln Sees Most of Play

Because yeah, he couldn’t have done that.

10 years ago, prosecutors dropped domestic assault charges against José Reyes. MLB execs responded by persuading the baseball superstar to waive his legal rights and release his sealed police files to his employers. What does this reveal about how MLB investigates misconduct? issa new [eyeblack]:

Still resonates 20 years later. These days, it would spark an indictment, if not an on-camera arrest.

This is the correct answer.

Anger over Trump's $1.8 billion slush fund has risen so high that Senate Republicans are now considering the once unthinkable step of sending the president a sternly-worded letter.

So something crazy is happening in the minor leagues this year. Runs scored and home run rates have exploded. Why? That's a mystery. www.baseballamerica.com/stories/home...

Maybe someone (🙋🏼‍♀️) should find out!!! If you can help me get Minor League baseballs, please reach out! ⚾️⚾️👀

WASHINGTON—In the latest of a series of escalations in President Donald Trump’s highly publicized war on “woke,” the U.S. Department of Justice reportedly removed all mentions of justice from its website Friday.

Even better: “Buyers will also receive free round-trip bus travel to attend.”

Good for Mamdani, but also smart move by ticket sellers. FIFA can’t afford to have empty stadia broadcast worldwide.

I've got a new book coming out next week, so of course I'm looking at where it's ranking, sales figures, etc. This is a first for me, AI is being credited as an illustrator in this context. Promising that my 150+ illustrations were by me and me alone :)

Easier than that. Pass it in one of the appropriations bills with language that says "no funds may be used for..." If he doesn't sign it, he will be shutting down the government for this.

BOB RUBIN: “.. markets and the economy seem largely inured to the chaos, leading some to conclude that Trump’s policies have not resulted in the serious economic damage many predicted. I disagree. “.. enormous damage has been done ..” @financialtimes.com www.ft.com/content/d95c...

Pitch framing is one of the dumbest, most flawed metrics out there.

We live in the dumbest dystopia

Imagine being stressed out about life and the state of the world and then you walk outside to clear your head and see this

I am not remotely a lawyer, but I think if you agree to review a manuscript for a press and then feed that manuscript into AI without the permission of the author, the author should be allowed to sue you into poverty.

So much for emulating his hero, Alphonse Capone…

Don’t know what I think of this. When I was in school, there was a huge disparity between liberal arts and STEM. I fought for every B+, while my Hist & Lit roomie was disappointed if she got an A-. So yes, grading was a problem. Not sure a hard cap is the best fix tho. www.wsj.com/us-news/educ...

I have just received word that the Emperor has dissolved the council permanently. The last remnants of the Old Republic have been swept away. bsky.app/profile/lemi...

Trump’s mean tweets are still capable of swinging a primary in Kentucky. His approval rating is barely above drinking age and he will never be on the ballot again. His second term is already an abject failure. Other than that he’s killing it!

terrible. 20 years ago, the internet was full of hobbyist blogs and forums. over time, these have been replaced by paywalled substacks and private discord channels, each a walled garden. google's decision to prioritize AI just makes it less likely people will create free, public info

I’m not sure why this isn’t being mentioned more, but: IRS policy for 50 years has been that the sitting president & VP get audited every year, in an effort to reassure the public they’re not corruptly abusing the office to enrich themselves.

Let the universe retire.

The most important question: how do you turn it the f*ck off?!

Make it make sense…

i cannot. I CANNOT.
