I think I listened to roughly 200 new albums this year. Here are the 50 that I liked the most. 🎧 #MusicSky

This website needs less Billy Pencils and more Tommy Pencils

Years ago I went to our corner liquor store to buy some of those little 7 oz beer bottles for my wife and her friends to have a Bloody Mary bar. Another customer pointed at the little beers, then pointed at me and said, “Cerveza pequeña para un hombre pequeño.”

My most cherished Christmas tradition is reading this out loud to my wife on our way home from her mother’s house on Christmas morning every year

Happy birthday to the most perfect person in history, the light of the world, Rickey Henderson

This is the one youtu.be/KIhIBFPtnoc?...

Returning the rental car is the best part of the trip because it means that now it’s time to eat all the rest of the weed gummies before my flight

The last day of visiting my mother is going to break me. Mom: “Is that a new tattoo?” Me: “Huh? No.” Mom: “I don’t think I have seen that one before, only your other one.” Me: “This the only one I have.” Mom: “Really? I didn’t think it looked like that.”

Books are great and all but god damn

@hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social bro, did you know you can do this?

Extroverted people freak me the fuck out.

One of our largest cultural divides is between people who back into parking spots and people who aren’t weird assholes

It’s really wild how often exactly the minimum number of Democrats needed to pass something vote for it. They’ve been doing the rotating villain thing for like 20 years now at least.

Chicago, I don't ask you for much, just more accountability of CPD, more taxes on the super wealthy, no Paul Vallas types as mayor and naming a snowplow Abolish Ice. Let's make this happen.

I am so grateful that @jessiefuentes.bsky.social is my alderperson. She may be the only person that I’ve ever voted for (for any office) that I’ve liked even more a year or two into her term than I did when I voted for her.

A date which will live in infamy

Do you ever wake up at 4:00 in the morning just wondering what Rico Brogna’s been up to

I’ve always enjoyed that U2 has a guitar player named The Edge and a drummer that’s just named Larry

This dude just keeps rolling around in the snow instead of taking care of business

I love it when older people call their email address their “number”

Everything sucks but at least there’s a new Mint Mile album. Music to the rescue, again.

oh cool my life is unraveling

Hanging out with an old guy

Found the funniest post on Bluesky

Nigel McGuinness just recited a list of things that allow PAC to have the physique that he does and I feel like he left off one really important thing 🤼

Just like Sister Ray said

Cramming for the physical exam I have tomorrow morning by having a big salad for dinner

Why does the camera have to be so close to the microphone?

Will Stancil’s “Why I Left the Left” is going to be legendary

A year or two ago a centrist guy I know who hates Trump defended Thomas Jefferson because he was “of his time.” I pointed out that Trump is very much of his time as well, and that early 1800s abolitionists were as much of their time as Jefferson was but he acted like I was saying something crazy.

Liberals say communism is a fantasy because of the immutably greedy and vicious human nature, then say "Our institutions will be fine actually because they rely entirely on the grand character, integrity, and judgment of a handful of very rich men directly beholden to the status quo"

Booing the commissioner of any league is an important responsibility for sports fans everywhere

The one cool thing about insomnia is that there are 2-3 times a year that if I wake up at 3:00 a.m. I can listen to a new Guided by Voices album

One time I saw the Go at the Magic Stick in Detroit and they played so loud that they exploded a speaker or something and the sound guy got on the stage and yelled at them.

They snuck a half time show into a World Series game by disguising it as a cancer fundraiser

I see that Blake Snell is back on his Blake Snell bullshit tonight

Does right wing ideology have a future on the American left?

If you don’t like the Clash I’m gonna just assume it’s because you’re a fascist

Revisiting some bad Ohtani takes of the past

Is Ohtani having the greatest game anyone has ever played? I can’t imagine a better one.

Jake Rogers had more WAR as a pitcher this year than Tommy Kahnle did.

AJ Pierzynski must be the only person in the world who thinks this game hasn’t had enough bunting.

Dillon Dingler is the best thing to come from Ohio since Guided by Voices

Lots of people here talking about leaving for Mastadon or Threads and I realized that if everyone cool leaves this place I’ll probably end up on reddit and that is so depressing

The way the ESPN broadcast framed Emanuel Clase being on the restricted list as a positive thing that brought the team together (without mentioning the reason he’s on the restricted list, of course) was fucking wild

The real tip off that MLB isn’t real is the names of some of the players are so obviously just made up. Richard Lovelady? Janson Junk? Chadwick Tromp? Come the fuck on

When you’re in the Northwoods

Whoever labelled the mute button at this gas pump is a hero

Wow I wasn’t expecting the highway rest stop historical marker to bum me out
