Thorns on the road means calling the game in studio! Catch us on 94.7 KNRK HD-2 or streaming on the Audacy app (same station)...

From his invitation to the potential shooting, this whole dinner has been one giant metaphor for how Trump has been covered by the press in the last decade.

In the grand Oregon tradition of removing large, dead things from Oregon beaches, it should be blown up with sticks of dynamite and Paul Linnman brought out of retirement to narrate.

You read this and think "wow this a hilarious parody of US politicians ha ha ha," and then you depressingly realize this is a legit policy platform of some numbskull in South Carolina who thinks he's got a snowball's chance of primarying Lindsey Graham.

In advance tonight's Game 3 between the Spurs and Blazers, please enjoy this Hater's Guide To Tom Dundon that I wrote. www.sfgate.com/sports/artic...

Did you think I actually looked like Wonder Woman? I do not. Anyway, glad this is officially official and happy to get a chance to work in the NWSL again!

Happy Earth Day.

I am so hyped for this. I love these cartoons, man. I might even fly to Colorado for the day to take my brother's kids to it. The next generation needs to know how great these cartoons are. There is something else out there for you besides Bluey and K-Pop Demon Hunters (no shade to either!)!

"should we really resort to playing dirty to defeat the nazis i–" yes. kick em in the fucking balls. what kind of question is that. grow the fuck up

every conservative political complaint comes back to "those people shouldn't count because they disagree with me"

Listen, they are building concentration camps and threatening genocide against a country of 90 million people. There is not a single remotely legal tactic that is impermissible when it comes to stopping them.

just saw someone call Kash Patel “J Edgar Boozer” and need to lie down

people who say this act like if they weren't at the airport they'd be at home curing cancer. what exactly are your big plans for your extra 45 minutes at home you fuckin loser

in general, & across the world, the political gender divide really opens up around 2016 wonder if something happened then?

The moment Natasha Hiedeman realizes her new city of Seattle contains multitudes, including both skyscrapers and a “big ass mountain, volcano, thingymabober.”

We do bingo at holidays for prizes that fit in a paper lunch sack. I know everyone has Big Feelings about Funko figurines, but a few years ago I got the The Godfather set for prizes and, hysterically, the Sonny one came with a trash can lid. My brother traded away everything he won just to get it.

Stopped for gas now, but been going about 10 over the speed limit on 84 and people are still in passing me like I'm standing still. One dude tailgated me so hard when I was passing a semi (bc I wasn't going fast enough around it, I guess), that I couldn't see his headlights in any of my mirrors.

Yeah geez weird impossible to know I guess

My parents, lifelong Catholics, just hung the Vatican flag and a newly-acquired Chicago White Sox flag off the roof of their house. (We are Mariners fans.)

Describing Billboard's number one solo artist of all-time, who went 18x platinum, was the first woman to make a billion in concert revenue, and ran one of the most successful artist-run labels ever, as Just A Marketing Trick wasn't the dumbest thing I expected to read today, but here we are.

It is a gd miracle I ever remember where I parked my car at the airport.

It will never stop pissing me off how much trump is going to walk away from this presidency as a “real” billionaire in a way he never was before, and it is going to be solely because of the public office

"Always read Brian Phillips" is one of my many mottos.

I’m old enough to remember when NPR did their annual recitation of the Declaration of Independence in 2017 and a bunch of Trump voters called it anti-Trump propaganda because we live in hell

I need to know who Ron Wyden is training to take over for him, both locally and nationally, when he retires, because this is what we'll lose...

Wow! This second jersey of #Haiti 😍

Sophia Wilson has the opportunity to do the funniest thing possible...

its a theory the same way that gravity is a theory

This is genuinely unbelievable (-bly awesome)!

No hell hot enough, etc....

You're won't see these kinds of high-quality stats from Opta.

This is also why lower tier soccer clubs in the states are exploding right now. Look what’s happening in Portland (ME), Pawtucket, Burlington. Quality play. Meaningful community. The best experience you will find in sport.

not many people know this, but Barilla has a line of 3D printed pasta it sells mostly to the fine dining industry. I don't want the pasta. I want the pasta printer

Trying to explain St Augustine to the pope, the former head of the Augustinian order, who wrote his doctoral thesis on Augustine, on his way back from celebrating mass at the Basilica of St Augustine in Annaba, Algeria, overlooking the site where Augustine lived is peak Adult Catholic Convert.

"The rise of extreme wealth is one of the clearest signs of this imbalance. In 1987, billionaires held wealth equal to 3% of global GDP. Today this tiny elite, just 0.0001% of the world population, owns the equivalent of *16%* of world GDP in wealth."

The double pitch lines are killing me. They really needed a second set of lines for a field 5 yards shorter but 3 yards wider? What?

incredible that the lifelong Catholic in this specific situation is The Pope

Walking into a Care Bear Bar and they all stare until you leave

Get his ass, Your Holiness

alright i'm giving up on understanding geopolitics

Best possible scenario for us: Trump lives long enough to see the 2028 election and the GOP lose in landslide numbers, and then dies the week of the inauguration so no one in his admin gets pardoned.

Also because we ended up with a fuck ton of coders who had never taken courses in humanities or the social sciences so they created sadness/narcissm/conspiracy theory machines which have clearly been awesome for youth, democracy, and societal health.

I firmly believe that the Dem frontrunner for president will be the first one who says that, starting after the convention, they're establishing a Commission for Unfucking Things, whose sole job will be restoring the federal government. They should hire Mamadani's comms team to message everything.
