Wind & solar have been the cheapest energy for over a decade, we have ways to store it for nighttime & calm conditions, & we're still fighting wars over oil. It is what it is folks

Any journalists who go to this event are smearing themselves with shit and blood.

Hard to have our minds on this right now — but it goes on regardless so you can watch this space for updates on all the races we're watching.

Polls close at 7pm ET in Georgia. They close at 7pm local, meaning 8pm ET, in Oklahoma. They close at 7pm local, meaning 8pm ET, in Missouri. They close at 8pm local, meaning 9pm ET, in Wisconsin. They close at 7pm local, meaning 10pm ET, in Arizona.

Now up to 12,500 calls an hour on 5 Calls!!

You are currently averaging over 10,000 calls per hour on 5 Calls (!!!) to demand your reps rein in Trump and his catastrophic threats. 🔥📞🔥

All of this...

I really hope Doug Christie isn't back next year for the Kings. He isn't a good coach. The Kings need to find their coach of the future and start building. No more wasted years.

US voters worried about high food prices in 2024. This admin has: 1) taxed food & fertilizer imports 2) deported farmworkers 3) canceled food/climate investments 4) started a war that spiked energy/fertilizer prices 5) increased crop-based biofuel mandates 6) released dietary guidance centering meat

People saying this game is over...

Good luck with that, the kids are way ahead of you

Just in case folks miss this due to the block

anyone attending the white house correspondents dinner is a fucking traitor

Good thing the Kings will not institutionalize losing and tank like the Spurs, Rockets, Thunder, and Pistons have done in the past. Look where they are.

Kings are now in a tie with Utah for 4th/5th in the lotto. 11-13 since the All Star break. The Kings now have greater odds of picking 6th 7th or 8th than picking top 4. What a stupid franchise.

Sure, the most influential accounts on X are all right-wing influencers who spew a steady stream of misinformation and hatred, but I'm sure you're not feeling any downstream effects from all of that. You're just too smart and savvy to be influenced by propaganda, not like literally everyone else.

Pointed enough to make them feel good about themselves. Subtle enough to keep them out of any kind of trouble.

here’s what would be better than this performative bullshit: if he looked out into the crowd and saw … no crowd. because reporters who actually care about the first amendment kept they asses at home. (via @status.news, a newsletter well worth paying for)

When Dave Arneson purchased some wacky 20-sided dice in London, then later used them for his Blackmoor game, there's no way he even considered someone might be throwing one in space 50+ years later. And talking about the gaming style he co-created.

That they should have tanked better? 😂

If Michigan wins the National Title, the Kings will draft Yaxel Lendeborg, "because he's a winner."

Lotta men getting emotional and angry over at the bad place about this post

Remember: Immigrants, enslaved people and their descendants, and working people from all backgrounds built this country. Not billionaires.

'An MIT Media Lab study titled “Your Brain on ChatGPT” found that LLM users “consistently underperformed at neural, linguistic, and behavioral levels.” The tech oligarchs have somehow managed to enshittify thinking.'

The 2039-2040 NBA season has just concluded. The Sacramento Kings have missed the playoffs the 17th year in a row. While they have not surpassed 35 wins in the last 14 years, they have a winning record over the final 10 games in 11 of the last 14 years to avoid institutionalizing a losing culture.

I'll be glad when the NBA flattens the odds for the lotto or whatever they do just so we’ll be less infuriated when the Kings win meaningless late season games they have no business in Been 20 years of this

I'll laugh my ass off if they end up with a better record than the Mavs.

I'm going to remember folks Max takes.

Will's point is legit. My frustration is in the big picture. Wins like this will happen. It's the wins where they play the vets big minutes, etc., over the last month that makes me cranky about this win. In a vacuum, it's fine, but it didn't happen in a vacuum.

The Kings really are going to have another 17 year playoff drought. 🤦‍♂️

I told you all a month ago when the Kings had the worst record that they would fall to the 5th position or worse. Folks told me it couldn't happen. This is the worst run organization in the league.

My team can’t even be shitty correctly

Narrator: He will not.

Do you know what would make the expansion draft WAY cooler? If it was for the Sacramento Monarchs

Limiting college athletes to one transfer in a five-year window should be matched by limiting coaches to changing jobs of their own volition more than once in a five-year window too.

Goddammit.

'Senior Army officers reacted with anger...to the news of General George’s dismissal' The reason for the dismissal? Gen. Randy George disagreed with Hegseth blocking the promotions of 2 women and 2 black Army officers. Arguably the more consequential firing today. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/02/u...

I'm simultaneously happy for Max Raynaud, and cautious what it actually means for his future as a player. He's been playing against a lot of teams playing third stringers. That said, he did what he's supposed to do. At least offensively. I still have a lot of defensive concerns.

I don't dismiss career stats. They say a lot about longevity and should be celebrated. They don't tell you who's a better player. For example, I'd take peak Jordan over peak James. Yes, this is a kind of subskeet.

Utah is going to jump ahead of Sacramento for draft position. Bet.

The Kings are a colossally stupid franchise.

Jrue Holiday is the greatest player of all-time.

I am such a Jrue Holiday fan.

A history of the top marginal tax rates on the wealthiest Americans: 1940: 81% 1950: 84% 1960: 91% 1970: 72% 1980: 70% 1990: 28% 2000: 40% 2010: 35% For 50 years, corporate backed politicians in Congress have slashed taxes to line the pockets of their wealthy donors.

I think a desperate all-hands-on-deck moonshot effort to build EVs affordably is the only thing that could save any western automaker from being completely cooked

The Supreme Court's "conversion therapy" decision today is indefensible on its own terms. A ton of medical regulations restrict speech on the basis of "viewpoint." Nobody thinks they're unconstitutional. This court just subjects pro-LGBTQ protections to special hostility. slate.com/news-and-pol...

checking in on this: we're now 6 days from the filing deadline, and still no challenger.

When it comes to elite tastemaking, the Atlantic and the New York Times are unparalleled. That's why it's so concerning that both outlets are committed to an anti-trans political project. New, from @billiejsweeney.bsky.social www.assignedmedia.org/breaking-new...
