Obviously, I'm just one guy who doesn't use FedEx generally because their workers aren't unionized, but also I've NEVER had an issue receiving UPS or USPS deliveries, while FedEx has repeatedly delivered my stuff to wrong addresses or notified stuff is delivered when it isn't across multiple homes.

We never got a story asking about why JD Vance was in group chats with high schoolers

Stephan Pastis just made a new meme template. Knock yourselves out, poasters. Specifically looking forward to Goat with big naturals.

You have to stick around for the interview of the fortunate coach.

Friday Night Lights was a documentary

I made a “how do you do, fellow kids?” joke to someone in their mid 20s who, it turns out, was too young to have heard of that meme. So “how do you do, fellow kids?” is now an example of “how do you do, fellow kids?”

Wild times when you have to read succeeding skeets SUPER carefully or else you get the impression the US almost began a war in Europe.

New frontiers in Making Up a Guy to Be Mad At

Refuse to believe New Dorp Beach is a real place and not a fat finger Grink-style typo

This is fascinating because this is such a new field and somehow they are going to hire 100 tenure-track faculty in the next 5 years who specialize in it. And yet when asked to fill spots with faculty of color/women/marginalized groups, administrators often cry about how the pipelines don't exist.

There are a lot of podcasts worthy of your time, so I'd appreciate if you gave mine a chance. Interviews with interesting people about the movies they watched as kids and the kids movies they find interesting today. The first two episodes are out, with more to come! popcorn.29sunset.com

i realize car dealership owners are his demographic but holy shit lol

Story about the Blue Jays picking up Schneider's option has an example of management referring to him as "Schneids", which I totally get why that's his baseball nickname, but it's weird to see it written out that way. Also, obligatory:

In case you're forgotten

My only GTA VI take is that it would be very GTA to have a ride-share service in the city that's called FUBAR.

Don't see jalapeños smh

I only know of Tom Scocca from his published work and social media presence, but based on that, it has boggled my mind that he didn't appear to be a top target for damn near every news org with a NYC presence. CNN got a great one.

#tbt sorry we missed this, @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social

TIL that the same guy wrote the screenplays for The Sting, Major League, Sleepless in Seattle, and The Program, which is RIDICULOUS range, right?

She can cast this as going out on her own terms all she likes, but if she wanted to come back she was going to have a tough fight in a new environment.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Nancy Pelosi won't seek reelection, ending her storied career in the US House.

There are probably a couple dozen countries or combos of countries that have the stadium infrastructure already in place to host, also a strong proxy for having hospitality and transportation infrastructure to host.

Cover just dropped. Coming in 2026 from Oxford University Press.

Is there anything that Caltrain did recently that might be instructive to other agencies? Something about wires?

The more I think about it, the more intrigued I am that (Barry Bonds caveat included), the Giants have had so few Hall of Famers the past few decades. In the past four decades, we're talking Old McCovey, Old Joe Morgan, Washed Steve Carlton, Old Gary Carter, Old Randy Johnson.

[P] Found a higher-quality photo; IT *IS* TAPED UP SHEETS OF PAPER!

competing organizational units not well aligned with another u say?

A thing about being in an open office is you'll hear a couple co-workers talking over a public email they're composing and they keep using the full word "hyperlink" over and over as in "maybe we should put a hyperlink here?" and as this goes on for 10+ minutes you melt into your desk.

if i were running for office i would absolutely call my volunteers “the wide awakes,” i would hand out wide awake pins and stickers and hats for people to wear and campaign events would have wide awake banners

BREAKING: Former FTC chair Lina Khan to serve as co-chair of Zohran Mamdani’s mayoral transition team.

one of the all-time great suckups. first-ballot Brown-Nosing Hall of Fame

I’m just a small-town political scientist, & it’s still relatively early, but it appears that The Actual Democrats did not Need To Do any of the Things or Learn any of the Obvious Lessons that Ezra Douthglesias said they Must Do & Learn.

Just an overall great night. We're so back.

Reminder that stanning a politician will only lead to bad places, BUT super hopeful on behalf of all my NYC friends that this guy is everything he seems to be.

Mamdani has won more votes than the entire population of any of the 5 smallest states.

this is a reminder that we dont have to settle for newsom in 2028

You have to survive. There are graves to piss on that haven't been dug yet.

this is objectively hilarious

lol. lmao.

the cia won’t see your jokes about rigging the virginia election. that’s the nsa’s job

For ppl whose kids want to be a journalist, I pass on the GREAT advice a now-cancelled, but very good journalism instructor, I had in college told our class: "Don't major in journalism. Go become an expert in something else, then come back to journalism with that expertise." (It was Barbara Fedida)

Tottenham Hotspur [3] - 0 FC København - M. van de Ven 64' I can't stop moaning watching this goal

This is correct, and I'll add that it seems bad that a 67-year-old guy is financing a brand new truck for more than $50k. (Not even going to get into how even a contractor is likely to get more value out of a minivan than a pickup.)

You like the Marx Brothers? Miyazaki? Edgar Wright? Rodgers and Hammerstein? Then the latest episode of the Kids Popcorn Podcast, an interview w/ @mariabustillos.com, is for you. Don't like any of them? It's still for you! Listen/subscribe at popcorn.29sunset.com or wherever you get your podcasts.

Gavin dressed in a suit gives off boss that protagonist’s corporate exec girlfriend cheats on him with before he rediscovers a lust for life with free spirited barista vibes. Gavin business casual looks like a Bruce Wayne, Gavin casual casual looks like he liked your vibe from across the bar.

Reminder to baseball fans: it's not your money. You gain nothing by your team cutting salary every year and attempting to get the sixth wild card by the slimmest margin possible. You don't have to defend these people, who are pocketing $$$ in real estate deals while using the other hand to cry poor.

let’s check that % of revenue spent on payroll chart ah yes hmm I see

Yeah I dunno I still think teams like the Cubs not acting like the big market behemoths they are is worse for MLB than the Dodgers.
