enough is enough

Folks, we in the Mid-Atlantic region are on track to have some very, VERY hot days, so if you have a yard or a front stoop or anything, consider putting out some water for the wild creatures. Just make sure you put in a rock or a stick or anything to help the smaller ones climb out if they fall in

Not a Catholic, but I thought the whole goal of Catholicism was to not be so loud about your weirdly held beliefs that the Pope excommunicates an entire rogue sect, with underlying threats to do it again if you all don't start behaving?

So someone saw a rage bait genAI "flyer" on Facebook and called the police lol

The image here borrows its title from Grant's 1868 presidential campaign slogan, "Let us have peace." Here's what Frederick Douglass had to say about that sentiment.

It’s ok to root for our country in sports and also want it to be better

The 4th of July tradition* in my house has begun! *watching the televised tour of the Battle of Gettysburg on PCN

You mean the real US National Soccer Team

For the love of God, bring back Freebird!!!

When the arm chair QB becomes the head coach lol

Tuning into Team USA for the first time in the stoppage time like

Mood:

Hope all you guys are having fun watching Team USA. I'm still watching the Pirates because I like pain. 🫠

Listen to Chewie! #StarWars

What I think when I see someone blocking me:

imo "there arent that many trans people" is a bad counterargument to the right's bigotry. who cares if its 1 trans person or 100 million? this week we are literally celebrating the concept that ALL OF US are equal. it doesn't matter the number. ALL OF US OR NONE OF US. period.

Almost forgot it's Bobby Bonilla Day lol

Seth Hernandez & Edward Florentino are the Pirates prospects for the Futures Game this year. Cool! I figured Hernandez would get one spot & couldn't figure out who the other would go to. But I assumed it would be another Greensboro Grasshopper, as that's where all the big prospects are this year.

My face when I find out you hated Social Studies.

Per last repost, I do think that in the US a lot of people, like a LOT of people, do not realize that if a birth certificate is no longer proof of citizenship then most of us have no proof of citizenship. At all.

I think a lot of people underestimate how complicated life could get if your birth certificate wasn't accepted as prima facie evidence of US citizenship, absent some new federal bureaucracy that vetted and registered qualified births.

Changed my display name into an Esmerlyn Valdez homer counter. Hope that doesn't jinx him tonight.

‘I asked ChatGPT’ Well, I asked Gandalf and he told me you should be silent keep your forked tongue behind your teeth because he did not pass through fire and death to bandy crooked words with a witless worm.

anyways can we please go on ideological war footing now? no more fucking baseball games. no more goddamn sports bets. jesus christ on a bike.

i'm seeing a lot of ppl on here today defending the Democratic Party to the trans community and allow me to suggest not doing that

It’s a seismic disaster that “does the Constitution exist” is 5-4.

This birthright ruling is why I just refuse to tolerate all the Democrat garment rending over NY voters choosing progressive candidates. They are incapable of governing in this moment. The politics of appeasement and centrism gets us to a 5-4 decision on the constitutional question.

Notwithstanding the citizenship ruling (which nonetheless had a disturbing margin), any Democratic candidate for President in two years who doesn’t support a complete institutional overhaul/rework of this nakedly partisan Court isn’t getting my support in the primary.

Particularly to every trans kid growing up in a world seemingly intent on attacking you. Know this: You are loved. These adults who get off on trying to bully you are the problem, not you.

It's ginned up bullshit and Democrats and liberals are falling for it instead of saying "Fuck you stop being weird about trans girls in sports you sprouted potatoes." Nobody fucking cared until a few years ago when Roe fell and conservaties needed another wedge issue.

Tonight almost felt like revenge for that first game in Pittsburgh a few weeks ago

If Esmerlyn Valdez can't do it, Endy Rodriguez can!

I am begging Ben Cherington to start moving some of the top pitching prospects to the bullpen instead of penciling them all in as future MLB starters. I think that would help somewhat.

Can ya just elect me as president so I can make online gambling illegal already?

Are Greg Brown and Kevin Young really making references to a 30-year-old movie right now?

Show of hands ✋ Who had Konnor Griffin playing second fiddle to Esmerlyn Valdez on their 2026 Pirates bingo card?

If it means something like the '05 Doctor Who reboot—just looks like they set up a soundstage in a warehouse with a couple cameras—sure. But it's really an excuse the same as "bad writing" or "Mary Sue." The budget doesn't matter. If "fans" don't like it, they'll call it "cheap looking" either way.

I grew up watching syndicated Seinfeld reruns. So, sorry to the future Pirates ace, but this will always be my internal reference when I see Seth Hernandez anywhere lol

This kid looks like Bubba Chandler. Why do they all look like this now? Did the baseball gods' copier get stuck in an infinite loop?

The first thing we're doing is separating the twins? Who's running Penguins development camp? Yoda?

One thing I hope MLB changes soon is the DH spot being immovable in the lineup. If the DH is universal now, why shouldn't you be allowed to treat it like every other position on the field? The one caveat I'd support is the new DH must come off the bench instead of someone originally in the lineup.

The Facebook Boomers are copy pastaing about Social Security cuts—angrily but in a good way? What is going on?

Everybody has a fact that causes their brain to immediately shut off. This is mine.

I always joke about our power hitting prospects hitting one off the Clemente Bridge someday. But, after today, I think Valdez could actually do it. 🤯

some notable professions aside i think its probably not good to be exposed to what like 15-22 year old readers are saying about Books or to be honest really most things

I like how my phone won't even notify me when it receives those texts anymore, like even it can tell how spammy they are, so sometimes I'll just open my Messages and have like 5+ unread texts
