wife guy here, please read about @katcraft.bsky.social’s short film The Hog Queen, which is incredibly cool and had a number of disabled filmmakers on both sides of the camera!!! www.latimes.com/entertainmen...

"in effect"

Today while looking for bagels in an unfamiliar neighborhood I learned that Philly Bagels changed its name to Schmear at some point. And then I just made my way home and stopped at Bart's.

for our "Texas Canon" series, I wrote about Halt and Catch Fire, the underrated AMC show about the '80s Dallas tech boom, and how it reminds us of why we were optimistic about tech in the first place: www.chron.com/culture/arti...

Philadelphia will sit that one out

I don't think texting "FUCK OFF" to Stereogum will get you a subscription discount, but do it anyway (the subscription, not the text) stereogum.com/2476164/who-...

In his budget speech @governor.pa.gov was careful to not say the word 'Philadelphia' once over the 30 minutes, even when talking about next year's 250th anniversary of the US: www.youtube.com/watch?v=xjNN... He's treating Philadelphia as too politically toxic to even mention, let alone defend.

Song I played on college radio still being played on college radio, you absolutely love to see it.

The most relaxing moment you can have as a Philadelphian is when you decide to get on Kelly Drive instead of the Schuylkill

LOLMavs. But you can't fire the owners.

What a thrill to be part of @talkingpointsmemo.com's series about the past 25 years of digital media! I wrote about why private equity goons destroyed Deadspin and why it matters.

The Eagles-Packers game was what a Penn State-Indiana game should look like.

America deserved a safety there tho

For years, advertising has been how Stereogum made money to pay its writers. While we made progress moving away from that model, Google AI search has decimated the business almost overnight. Today we relaunch with a greater focus on subscription. We’d love your support: stereogum.com/2478838/ster...

Six months later story about this showed up in my feed from an aggregator site, so I'm sharing original. We had some in migas yesterday that had no heat whatsoever. www.dmagazine.com/food-drink/2...

Replacing the ACA with PaulRyanCare would be terrible on the merits and terrible politics. Any Democrat voting to replace ACA tax credits with temporary contributions to HSA accounts should face a primary challenge at the earliest possible opportunity www.lawyersgunsmoneyblog.com/2025/11/i-wa...

I, for one, did not know that Sammy Hagar covered "Free Money" (in 1977!) www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

Saw a guy in a Buc-ee's t-shirt standing outside one of the Mummers clubs on Two Street. A+, no notes.

My Mary Margaret O'Hara Google alert frequently sends me random obituaries of various people named O'Hara with similarly named relatives, but this one is actually a family member (and major Canadian herself). RIP www.legacy.com/ca/obituarie...

Hey listen, Penn State needs to be closer to bowl-eligible more than Indiana needs to be undefeated.

I say “I don’t want to get sick, I like not being sick”, and that usually leaves people speechless and confused

Will have a personal moment of silence for Leon Stickle at the Flyers game today. I might be the only one. (I met him in the Ice Bats/Central Hockey League days. IIRC his quote about Flyers fans from 1980 was, "those people are still alive?") www.grahamgiddyfh.com/obituaries/L...

Just when I was ready to take a mild interest in Northwestern football again I remember the Uihleins nusports.com/sports/footb...

Philadelphia is excited about the World Cup. I'm excited about the World Cup. But Chicago sees the World Cup clearly. www.nytimes.com/athletic/677...

broken record on this but a similarly great beat for left wing media would be covering arts and culture and not just focusing primarily on politics and current events because there's a massive void there right now

I will always be amused by the name of the hockey player Ryan O'Reilly in (sort of) the same way I am by the baseball player Dylan Carlson

look, when you can hire the guy who helped trade for and pay Deshaun Watson, you simply have to do it

I'm one of the four fired employees. I was a writer & producer at Bon Appétit for nearly five years, during which I helped organize our union and sat on our bargaining committee. I am, to my knowledge, the only trans woman in our union and the only trans woman on editorial who doesn't work at Them
