in vegas in one of the big sports betting bars, watching the korean soccer game surrounded by a crowd of koreans on one side, the mexico game with mexicans on the other, and the dodgers game with one loud degenerate gambler happy not to be cheering alone. sports!

Like many people who have worked in politics for decades, I am baffled and upset to see candidates who say they are going to try to make things better defeating candidates who say they are trying to make it more or less like it was in the years before things tipped over into Oaf-Style Fascism.

it is truly bazonkers that anybody who considers themselves a serious person would characterize the rise of mamdani as MAGA-like lmao

The baseball question is, “When you’re 15 games below .500 and have produced your share of totally horseshit moments on and off the field so far this season, is it worth rostering bigots who are at odds with your fan base and your franchise’s legacy?

SENEGAL

upset that the second half of france-iraq is delayed by rain? well, the deciding game of the college (baseball) world series between oklahoma and north carolina is in the top of the first inning on espn.

People choosing to believe that the process and the long-term engagement of creatives isn't a valuable part of the artistic process reveals, at least to me, a notion that many people do not see creative work as enrichment, but as a means of facilitating an addiction to dopamine release.

Every remix, meme, parody, and fanfic anyone has ever enjoyed was the result of a person or people taking actual time and effort to create something as an artistic response to something which engaged them emotionally. Definitionally, Generative AI output is a counter to this - and a hollow one.

if you are in LA, i beg you to wear a mask outside, even if you think you're far from danger. the aqi in atwater, 7 miles away, is nearly 200.

The contamination and pollution from the fire in Boyle Heights is much, much worse than Los Angeles political leaders are admitting to. This is a huge scandal. So many people are getting genuinely sick.

zoe saldaña dances differently in the spanish language version of her t-mobile iphone commercial than she does in the english language one.

yeah, like... what the fuck?

just watched the smoke from the warehouse fire roll into atwater like horror movie fog

There's a fire in a Los Angeles warehouse that has made the air in all of Southern California toxic. Kind of wrecks the illusion that the region is 191 hermetically-sealed jurisdictions where governance in one has no effect on any of the others.

okay this was the real point of the trip and ive been practicing for weeks and weeks AND I FUCKIN DID I DID IT I DID IT just hand developed this shit TODAY fuckin ASTROPHOTOGRAPHY ON FILM MOTHERFUCKER fucking KODAK T-MAX 400 hell yesssssssssss 🔭

When I was in Japan, my wife said I was gratuitously looking for opportunities to just name Japanese baseball players to show off. And I told her that was ridiculous. I was there for the culture, the food, and the scenes. And if Akinori Iwamura were traveling with me, he'd have said the same thing

WHAT THE HOLY FUCK DODGERS

i think this is my first time watching roki pitch!

Sometimes people will hear some of the side effects of my psych meds and be like, “omg I could never” and it’s like that’s great, Janet, but also the alternative is thinking I’m a prophet and the streetlights are speaking to me in code and also my neighbor is an alien. So. Yeah.

i never gave soccer its due for just how fucking hard it seems! this is the closest i've watched and holy shit. scoring a goal feels almost as miraculous as a home run.

🎵If I could score a goal, things would get better We could leave this pitch and run forever

The about-face, reported Thursday by The New York Times, comes months after the agency purchased a massive warehouse on Salt Lake City's west side.

is there rodeo blueksy? does sports bluesky extend that far?

i know literally nothing about soccer other than: 1. score goals 2. no hands except a goalie 3. if you do bad things you get cards pulled at you, red means you're ejected 4. if somebody does a bad thing you get a penalty kick what broad strokes stuff am i missing

That second half was something to behold. What a win for Mexico.

my people 💙🤍

fuckin chills

if this song comes on at a bar i will leave

let's go senegal

being anonymous online was the only way i could safely explore my gayness and anti-mormon views without my mom, or worse my church, finding out. requiring real names will only result in vulnerable kids being further isolated.

very few things in this life unite people like sports. friendships are deepened, communities are formed in celebration. takes a bummer kind of person not to see how beautiful and rare such a connective joy is and dismiss it as "just sportsball"

i am aching in jealousy of all my ny friends tonight. never been so nostalgic for that place as i am now!

mexico has the best italian food in the world

slightly unrelated but what's so cringe about his fans is that they don't realize he'd throw them into the same labor camps in a heartbeat if it made him even $1

the power has been out all day which is why i am now sitting on a patio in the pitch dark, drinking wine, listening to the sound of the ocean and jungle birds and frogs. i'm also understanding why people went to bed so early before tv

sayulita, mexico. always recommend traveling internationally during the world cup. no other experience like it. i don't even like soccer.

i would take a bullet for freddie freeman

yesterday was my husband's 15 year sobriety anniversary! no meth, no heroin, no coke, no crack! i watched him go from a fucked up 13 year old smoking weed just to get through, to somebody i wouldn't speak to, to the kind, wonderful, generous man i knew he always was.

the least accurate thing about red dead redemption is that your horse only spooks at like snakes and shit. i'm sorry, there was an unexpected rock or bush around the corner? that bitch should be flinging me off
