republicans have literally made everything worse and harder and more terrible over the course of my entire life and somehow* they keep coming back to power bc of our feckless corporate press and a weak willed opposition 😒 *sob

Now more than ever I’m convinced losing Anthony Bourdain meant we lost probably the biggest person on tv who advocated for the wonders of meeting new people and calling anyone online who hated learning new cultures the children they were, ruthlessly to the camera.

things every single republican president of your lifetime has done - started a war in the middle east - completely destroyed the economy

🧵 Living in Michigan, if a political issue seems frustratingly impossible to advance, you can almost always find the roots in policies motivated by racial and economic segregation. When you scrape back the "housing theory of everything" you find racism and classism under the hood.

“the president’s speech is going to be over two hours long!” they’re doing kalshi shit guys. they’re leaking a bunch of stuff about a super long speech and he’ll go about 2 minutes short of the supposed mark and everyone in the white house will make $200k on it

Waiting to see how long it takes institutions reinstate the diversity, equity, and inclusion programs they shut down, re-hire those they pushed out, and rewrite all the language they rushed to change. Something tells me it'll likely be a long wait.

Feels like the officials are letting a lot of contact go both ways. That plays to Michigan's size advantage. Gotta keep up the shooting.

Why does everyone on Purdue have a neckbeard

Hootin. Hollerin.

if you missed it, i wrote about naz hillmon's jersey ceremony, the ground michigan wbb has covered since hillmon came to ann arbor, and brooke quarles daniels sparking a comeback-turned-blowout against michigan state. thebucketproblem.beehiiv.com/p/michigan-m...

Curling teams coming back to Earth/choking against bad teams (depending on your point of view) is going to really put a damper on my week

yes this appears what to be what happened. it was a 3-run competition and it started snowing super-hard halfway through the third round so they just called it and used the results from rounds 1 and 2. will investigate to see if it clearly cost anybody

@rodger.bsky.social what the hell just happened with ski jumping?!? Goldzone is saying they're just stopping and giving the medals to whoever was leading at the time?

😭😭😭 a community member just handed this off to a patroller in our neighborhood

Which is why Shuster doing daily curling commentary on GoldZone is the highlight of this year's broadcast.

In terms of what cures are being lost: - Epstein-Barr virus is perhaps the major trigger for multiple sclerosis - herpes simplex virus causes cold sores, genital herpes, infections in babies, deadly meningitis - shingles virus causes an intensely painful disease

Just said on the podcast that today feels like an NFL Sunday because my feed is full of people complaining about refs: 🔘 French figure skating judge 🔘 Chloe Kim score 🔘 Snowboard cross DQ 🔘 2 hockey goals taken off the board 🔘Surprise tiebreaker in men’s freeski moguls

I agree with all of this, especially restarting world war 1, except that I am also watching the Olympics.
