Spell like no one is watching.

Here’s last night’s story about USAID, why the Trump Administration has gutted it, who is being impacted, and how many nice things John can say about George W. Bush. It’s more than zero! By a very narrow margin, it is more than zero. youtu.be/tU8S13xYJNM

Olympic curling: elaborate sweeping operation to tweak the path of the thrown rock, constant screaming, plus an earth-shaking controversy about tapping the rocks post-release to influence direction Paralympic curling: just huckin it down there, don't see what the big deal is, works just fine

Tonight’s dumb napkin cartoon…

A friend sent me this and it is annoyingly good

That was gross.

Happy International Women's Day.

We’ve got a new episode tonight at 11:11pm on HBO Max! Join us! And by “join us,” we mean turn on your TV. You cannot technically “join us.” But when you think about it, you can’t technically join anyone, can you? We enter this world alone, and we leave it alone. Ok! See you tonight!

Jacob Kiplimo’ splits: 5km – 13:28 (13:28) 10km – 27:00 (13:32) 15km – 40:52 (13:52) 20km – 54:23 (13:31) 21.1km – 57:20 (2:57) That's an average of 4:22 per mile for 13.1 miles 🔥

Well, the Hawkeyes are going to finish 2nd.

Val Solario is your 103# champ. She is fun!

Another one! Kylie Welker won by technical superiority at the end of the 1st period.

Yay! Kennedy Blades is the champ by pin!

Reese got pinned by Mir. Blech.

They're giving belts to the champs. Awesome.

It's championship time. Go Hawks!

The McKendree coach gives me the ick. It could be that he's wearing pants at least one size too small.

Things have turned around a bit in the upper weights and wrestlebacks.

Well, things started off well, but Iowa haven't won a match since 103.

The NCC fans are pretty cocky given that one of their wrestlers was DQ from the tournament for "brutality," which included biting her opponent.

A pin for the Hawkeyes out of the gate at 103. I think she even flashed ✌️ while she was doing it. Hope someone got a picture while she was doing it.

Another fun day of women's wrestling on tap. Go Hawks!

🚨 Tornado Watch issued March 6 at 8:20PM CST until March 7 at 4:00AM CST by NWS Quad Cities IA IL 🚨 Additional Details Here.

Also, there's one coach who aggressively fans their wrestler with a towel during the break between periods.

I'm not sure why the North Central fans "bark" (or at least that's what it sounds like) when their mascot is a bird of some sort.

Blades took care of her opponent quickly but was holding her side. Hope she's ok.

Dang, ref called potentially dangerous a second too late. Poor girl may have popped her ACL. (Not an Iowa wrestler, btw.) Of course, she's right back out there.

Tonight's agenda:

Cue the trumpets 🐘

This BAFTAs n-word controversy is a tough one for @joshjohnsoncomedy.bsky.social 🤔

Brian Joens was interviewed for this story for some reason, and no one should listen to anything that lunatic has to say about anything. www.kcrg.com/2026/03/04/i...

I'll never understand how Noem's career wasn't over the minute to dog story came out. I mean, other than it being straight up psychopathic behavior, most people abhor violence against dogs.

Replacing Kristi Noem with Markwayne Mullin is like replacing persistent diarrhea with projectile vomiting.

update here: 1. the runners who were misled are getting the full prize money 🙂👍✅ 2. the story is that a cop got hit by a car, the cops assigned to the race left to go respond to that, another cop filled in for them and thought he was supposed to direct traffic away from that incident

What, and I cannot stress this enough, the fuck

The Kinnick Documentary from 2022 is now being broadcast on Iowa Public Television, if you need to get away from *gestures broadly*.

This made me laugh more than it probably should have. Happy Tuesday! (From the @effinbirds.com desktop calendar.)

I'm sorry, if you're going to make a big show about how you've got a Department of WAR helmed by a Secretary of WAR and staffed by WARfighters, it's totally inane to then claim that your massive bombing of a foreign country constitutes something other than a war.

fuck, I’m sorry, I can’t compete with this

I miss him

Today marks two years since Caitlin Clark set a new record for most points ever scored in NCAA basketball. https://www.kcrg.com/2026/03/03/today-history-caitlin-clark-breaks-ncaa-scoring-record/

I hope they surround it with inspirational quotes from college dropout Charlie Kirk like "college is a scam," or maybe the time he told a 14-year-old girl she should only go to college to find a husband to take care of her, or something detailing the harassment campaigns he led against professors?

Gotta love how academic books don't earn you money, but LLMs can make money off of stealing them in the aggregate and if you write enough, they can also profit from stealing your personality after you are dead.

Coralville will host the NCAA Women's Wrestling Championships Friday and Saturday, and the city is gearing up for thousands of visitors.
