While you watch the clowns in England, I am rooting for the KNVB BEKER and the DELAY OF GAME CAUSED BY FAN PYROTECHNICS

This is when I like to remind people that LeBron’s first national magazine profile was actually like 8 months earlier, in SLAM. 😉

Today marks 11 years since the death of Freddie Gray. Last year, we documented the ways everyday people in Baltimore came together to create change.

TRAVIS SANHEIM!

DICKS OUT FOR DRYSDALE

A dear friend & organizing colleague of mine invited me to come to this, and it was an evening very well spent. I love Baltimore, and the Beat (which I donate to and YOU SHOULD TOO) is high up on the list of why.

This sucks so much

This shit is what I mean when I say "AI" is the tool of and the prevailing aesthetic of fascism. Nostalgia is a thought terminator.

Alright, time to bust this out

J.A. Happ Pitcher Debut: 2007 - Retired: 2021 PHI - PIT - STL - MIN - TOR - SEA - HOU - NYY

Fire Manfred Into the sun

“The fragmentation Manfred engineered in pursuit of maximum leverage heading into 2028 is now the evidence regulators cite when they argue that leagues have pushed their antitrust protections further than the law intended.” Well well well 👀

Lying about ethical breaches is the A1 way to get told “jump or be pushed”

they did that shit, your honor

Exclusive A formal union complaint has been filed with the National Labor Relations Board against FIFA and Kroenke Sports & Entertainment, which accuses them of failing to restrict ICE access to SoFi Stadium ahead of the World Cup. www.nytimes.com/athletic/720...

The thing about the right is, they want to be able to attack their opponents as if politics were an existential battle of good versus evil they are on the right side of, but demand to be treated by them as if politics were a good faith disagreement among gentlemen about optimising the tax code.

Not everything that breaks is technically the fault of vibe coding but the kind of culture that would foster vibe coding is the kind that produces a lot of shit that breaks.

I am not at all interested in the fantasy that Democrats are ready to put them all in prison that has nothing to say about dismantling the conditions that got us here.

Who thought defense contractors Oshkosh and GE Aero were worth inviting to this these people are so fucking stupid

New York Islanders raise money for convicted killer because he's a cop: defector.com/new-york-isl...

bluesky: we are pivoting to AI [site catches on fire] bluesky: this was not the fault of AI

when people joke about the site crashing because of ai or vibecoding or whatever, it's very funny that the smug tech-brains not only get very upset but also are like errrrrm excuse me it wasn't ai we're just bad at it

not sure any website is going to be able to withstand the internet joy when It Happens but this one is definitely not

Love using this site! So functional!

Dude is such a loser. A true genius at running things into the ground.

The amount of people that did extremely unpaid/far below minimum wage work for this company in order for it to become a place for Kara Swisher to fart on people is truly terrible

One of the biggest labor battles in the US is happening right now in Los Angeles, at USC, where our faculty-union campaign with majority support is being met by nasty, corporate-grade administrative resistance, and national press won't cover it.

The sad, strange Phillies of 2026? The South Philly Slop Boys we called 'em. Brandon Marsh tried to catch a pop-up as a base runner. Kyle Schwarber got really into Hoagiefest and disappeared. Every starting pitcher gave up a homer to TJ Friedl. They say Alec Bohm's glove is still full of screams

if you don't know what the NYPD is fussing about, it's that eric duran THREW A COOLER at someone who was fleeing and killed them and they think they should be able to throw coolers at people and kill them

How did this guy’s nose and eyes and mouth and ears not immediately start bleeding

They made a speedball that’s exactly halfway between “drugs you take in high school because nobody has real drugs yet” and “Miami circuit party blackout juice”

this was a @trashfuture.bsky.social bit a couple of years ago

The very concept of Jeff Passan playing Baseball Ezra Klein makes me want to vomit so hard I turn myself inside out.

We are very, very glad that the PG is surviving! We’re eager to turn over a new leaf with new owners who value journalism, and respect Pittsburgh. We’re also concerned by the new ownership's public statements regarding job cuts.

And the Afro and Baltimore Fishbowl, and Baltimore Brew, and Baltimore Times. Not to mention @baltimorebeat.bsky.social

People really want one white man on a horse made out of money to save journalism in the same way that Charlie Brown really wanted Lucy to let him kick that football.

SV tech bros have been jerking off about the idea of "flat" orgs for decades. But a flat org doesn't mean there are no hierarchies. It means the hierarchies are informal, hidden, inconsistent. Do-nothing meeting attenders appoint themselves feudal lords.

Ten years ago today, Vince Velasquez pitched one of the most dominant games in Phillies history. It’s largely been forgotten. And Velasquez is still pitching … in Iowa. “I love the game. I just wish I could’ve done more.” Let’s remember a day: www.nytimes.com/athletic/719...

I know it’s trite, but someplace a bit of Marx helps is taking seriously the coercive nature of market participation and a recognition of power. Willingness to pay is not an ethical measure

I think this is where reasonable folks can disagree. “Correct” is a load bearing term here and I don’t know if it is appropriate. It simply happens to be the clearing price at this time given the make up of the market itself. We can accept the price without giving it such normative heft.

Flyers? Playoffs?!

I’d take this over the AI-made Jeep ad, to be fair.

What’s wrong babe you’ve barely touched your MLB app specific incorrectly geographically tagged commercial that talks about what you should do if a family member owns a gun and has become unpredictable in Illinois

It can’t ever be just a win for the Phillies. Something always has to happen that makes you question the concept of happiness and the nature of existence itself

Please pull this talentless oaf of a pitcher
