If you're the parent of a disabled kid, I just want to tell you I know it's hard and I know you feel like you're failing constantly, but you're doing it and you're doing the best you can and your kid absolutely loves you for it.

Yes I do. {Sigh} Yes I do.

Rather than banter (is that the right word) with randos here and other places online, I just put some thoughts down over at Medium. As usual, my self-impossed 2200 character limit applies. medium.com/@jonathanscr...

This didn't end up quite the way Judge Pirro thought, me thinks.

Press: Speaker Johnson, what is your response to yesterday election results? Speaker Johnson: I didn't see the results; this isn't really my lane.

A very quick post about Trump and The Great Gatsby. www.instagram.com/p/DQg5jWvDXK...

Too bad for Mariners. Great night for Jays. Love Ohtani, but Dodgers need to go down!

Yikes.

Great timing. I just landed in Paris.

Brilliant Idea!

It being Constitution Day and all, it was a good time to have a bit of a refresher for our students and community. Had fun moderating this discussion.

You have my attention.

More instrumental National Anthems please!! #Commanders #Packers

There should be a pitch clock on performances of the National Anthem.

Well that was one crazy @orioles.com ending. I was actually at the @baysoxofficial.bsky.social game, so missed it.

That'll do. #TottenhamManCity #COYS @spursarmy.bsky.social

You know what, this honest self reflection by @shadihamid.bsky.social is both refreshing...and really good.

My university (Maryland suburbs) is taking new first year students to DC tomorrow to see sites, etc. Several students have asked if they can be excused because they are afraid to go downtown. They are not afraid of crime, they are afraid of our federal government. Just get that message out there!!

That one was wild. How many times did Sox have based loaded in the final few innings but get no runs?

What did Rico Garcia just do? Wow. #Orioles

Look, I don't love that we're in "hey, the young prospects look pretty" mode at this point in the season -- a lot more was expected from this year. But...hey, the young prospects look pretty good. #Orioles @afkostka.bsky.social @thebaltimorebanner.com

Somewhere I hope @kasie.bsky.social is texting Lemire and Scarborough. #Orioles #LetsGoOs

I kinda like this Basallo kid. #Orioles

Federal agents prepare to arrest a statue of Abraham Lincoln after learning about his DEI proclamation.

This is LITERALLY where we parked a couple weekends ago @jcscriv.bsky.social

EARNED? Pray tell, what exactly does that mean?

Nothing else to say here, right? If you know, you know.

I don't want to get too excited here, but Trevor Rogers has some super-good stats this year: 56.1 innings pitched; 1.44 ERA, and WHIP of .75. Under contract for next year but arbitration eligible if I remember correctly. In the plans for next year? @afkostka.bsky.social #Orioles

Finally, some good ol' fashioned socialism!

One Championship already. (Hey, it's on the sign).

'He stole her' is one heck of a way to phrase it.

I mean, with the team getting healthy, the offense clicking and the pitching holding up, there's still ti..... (I stopped myself) #Orioles #GoOs

I think we may know how he 'wins' all those club championships.

What if Ro Khanna's position is that pedophiles should be outed and held responsible for their crimes?

No brainer. Legend in this town.

Boy, Luka Vuscovic is a big dude. Seems to tower over everyone else. Looked pretty good in his first match. #COYS #Tottenham

Over/Under 1 week until shirts with the Trump Birthday drawing go on sale on the Trump website.

Questioning the actual effects of the B2 strikes is not unpatriotic nor does it tarnish the brilliance and bravery of the pilots and support personnel. That's just nonsensical BS that nobody serious in ntl security believes. It kind of matters if the strikes were successful, no?

A very important point. The cable news/social media ecosystem leads viewers to believe consequences happen in hours or days. It's months or years, sometimes.

So, changing policy again. For what reason? Was any given?

Current state of things: the current POTUS posting that Dems are “sick of mind” and “hate our country” immediately after 2 Dem lawmakers and their spouses were shot in their homes is...exactly what we'd expect.

Who is checking on @jonlemire.bsky.social @samsteindc.bsky.social @mpolymer1.bsky.social?
