Gym + leftover chili for lunch was NOT a good combination. Didn’t actually hurl, but it was on the horizon at a couple points.

I need everyone to know that on the crochet subreddit the mods made a big post about how they're taking a week off because there was too much fighting/political posts. so there's currently no mods on r/crochet and people are being absolutely insane

HOW GOES THE FLAG FOOTBALL? (tumbleweed blows across the feed)

Luna has just about had it with winter.

Tarasenko's shot goes off the post, off the top of the goalie's head, then lands on top of the net

The woke scolds are trying to make this about racism. But Musk is right. It's about historical and scientific integrity. When the God of Thunder disguises himself as a swan to seduce and fuck a queen and the resulting baby hatches from an egg, *of course* the baby will be white. It's just science.

Maybe we’ll get an early spring if we buy him a new ballroom for his stump.

I wasn’t aware a bus could experience turbulence, but here we are. (Trying to make Penn Ave a two-lane road again makes for a bumpy ride in the curb lane.)

Establishing the run against authoritarian rule, as @edsbs.bsky.social says, requires the little things, the acts of resistance and kindness and community that eventually add up to something much larger and transformative. I wrote about it for BadFaithTimes.com. badfaithtimes.com/we-must-esta...

IMPORTANT UPDATE Luna’s new PJs arrived 😍

Ya know, I had my doubts about this Melania documentary but I’m man enough to admit when I’m wrong. This is fascinating.

I dunno. Imagining white septugenarians in the flyover states gritting their teeth and pretending they REALLY like Nicki Minaj is a little ray of sunshine, at least.

Oh no. The league-mandated popularity contests may have misfired. Whatever shall we do?

OK, just throwing an alternate theory out there: maybe someone didn't vote for Belichick because they wanted to put him and Brady in in the same class?

As a point of… ummm… scientific inquiry, it appears possible my dog fits in my lunchbox. The practical applications of this “research” cannot be overstated.

OK, but what’s the plan when they take the money and then ignore all those things?

Trump’s civilian killings, near destruction of NATO, and ties to pedophilia threaten to drop him below 95% approval among Republicans.

The Secretary of Homeland Security is asserting that the Deputy White House Chief of Staff ultimately bears responsibility for the murder of two American citizens, which is something that would normally generate a dozen congressional inquiries.

I got not one (flu), not two (COVID), but THREE (pneumonia) vaccinations at my yearly checkup. I figure I’m 12 hours away from either a falling into a coma or developing superpowers.

0, 4, 10, 4, 0. “What is ‘number of Melania tickets pre-sold for opening day showings at a randomly picked theater near me’? At least it makes a nice bell curve?

I realize it’s a little whiny/entitled, but permit me five minutes of grumbling about having to return to work after a two-day weather reprieve. (grumble, grumble) There… got it out of my system.

Before and after. GLOVES WOULD HAVE BEEN NICE.

The Cleveland Browns looking for a head coach

Shedeur got an invite to the flag football game multiple dudes passed on because it's no longer a free vacation in Hawaii. Maybe Cleveland should retire his number too!

There was a problem... and there's nothin' we could do about it.

Bari Weiss thinks she’s here to aggregate and create content, not run a news operation. The problem with content is that it’s cheap, easy, and abundant, the value proposition of the news is that you can’t get it elsewhere.

Happy large boulder the size of a small boulder day for all who celebrate

Making the rounds on FB:

Hey, this Bovino thing is a pathetic attempt to make all these horrors the fault of one guy, and it would be a serious, serious crisis if people fell for it. ICE needs to be abolished, bc this - terror, murder - are what it exists for. Nothing else. This is just an attempt to mollify us. Stay angry

understandable frustration with respectability politics but worth acknowledging that this kind of political situation is what it was for

We need everyone we can get in this fight against a fascist takeover. If your first instinct to someone being politically mobilized by all this is to give them a sneering "well, what took you so long?" you don't actually care about our winning this; you just want to be able to say you were right.

Had a weird moment: saw a photo of Sean McVay and he looked just enough like LA Knight, that I found myself briefly confused.

They plowed the parking lot for my building… but they plowed the snow up against the parked cars. Luckily, that’s more of a tomorrow problem.

Work has entered a weird liminal space: officially, we're "working remotely" but so is anyone who would bother opening a ticket. And my existing open tickets are all very in-person things so...

Thanks, Spotify. I'd forgotten to get around to cancelling my subscription for... take your pick... your CEO endorsing Trump, ripping artists off on royalties, and embracing AI slop. The email about the price hike was a nice reminder.

As the guy who pays all the protestors, bonuses for an audible “Fuck ICE” chant at the Seahawks game, we just approved the budget for it

In case anyone was wondering how it’s going over on American Girl doll Instagram

Teams chat for work currently wrestling with whether IT are considered "essential personnel", as pertains to going in tomorrow. I feel like the answer is no, but waiting for someone in a supervisory role to chime in.

Classes canceled tomorrow. Essential personnel only. So... looks like I can crack a beer? (My daughter also said PRT canceled bus service but so far I can only find it canceled TODAY, resuming Monday morning).

Sure, he can go Yinzer-to-Yinzer with Pat McAfee... but is he the right choice?

We have a Puppy Nesting Advisory for western Pennsylvania.

Currently, I’m fully expecting to call off work tomorrow because of the weather. My employer has 18-20 more hours left to see things my way.

Our government's atrocities are bringing together Bears fans and Packers fans.

a CEO is a vibes based position who, upon learning that one woman can make a baby in nine months, reasons that 9 women can make a baby in one month but as a cost saving measure only hires 0.7 women for 29 hours a month to avoid having to pay benefits
