Finally. A sportsball team I can get behind.

SCOOP — Pennsylvania prosecutors were alerted to possible voting irregularities by one of MAGA's leading voices against voter fraud. A long paper trail shows Jack Posobiec has been living in Maryland but voting using his parents' PA address for years. From @jsweetli.bsky.social, @slate.com + me:

American Christians deciding the Pope doesn't know the Bible because he said immigrants are human is the perfect summary of the evangelist movement

Time for someone to get cleared.

What the world needs now is a new World Party album. Or this song on repeat…

Check one.

Had a dream last night that I had discovered my cat was connected to Scattered Spider.

Felt the sweet embrace of Mötörhead as I drove over to prepare my dad for his surgical consult today. St. Lemmy preserve me.

If I ever give notice again, I wanna do it with as much style as Bill Watterson did.

Back in Baltimore for like 15 minutes until I drive up to fetch my parents from Plattsburgh and bring them back to Baltimore. Dad’s surgeon suggested to my dad that getting his surgery done by someone down here was better, in a sort of a “let someone else face these odds “ sort of pivot.

The administration celebrating Wounded Knee is congruent with the administration asking for dismissals or one-day sentences for cops convicted of civil rights violations. It’s part of a coordinated message. /1 apnews.com/article/woun...

PayPal has obviously been inundated with people reporting scam invoices and other lures using their service that allows anyone to email anyone a money request via their domain. So what did they do to deal with this? They stopped monitoring their [email protected] account apparently.

Personally I can think of a few other ones they have already implemented but hey go right ahead and complain about *checks notes* the cost to tech companies.

The transition from angry young man to just angry man to angry old man is pretty freakin’ fast, just as a warning to angry young men. Get some joy where you can so you can sustain the rage.

Woke up this morning With “Master of Puppets” playing in my head This is fine.

My dad is entering his Lear phase Propelled there by his immobilty And my mom’s dementia-fog questions.

So far as I can tell, the only thing that separates us from other living things is that we have written and spoken language. Many species have languages of their own and cephalopods’ could be loosely described as “written” because their communications are visual , based on pigment and have context

Some personal news: I've been fired from the Washington Post in the aftermath of the Charlie Kirk shooting. Thread incoming. substack.com/@karenattiah...

My son and I drove north today. He took the second shift. 8 hours of driving, 9 hours total, over 500 miles…so like an average speed of, uh, 55 miles an hour (when including the hour worth of brief stops).

Let us remember the brave men and women who we on Moonbase Alpha, on this day in 1999. #Space1999

The main thing about the reaction to the Charlie Kirk assassination video for me is that it made it very stark for a moment just how many Americans have been completely sheltered from just how much damage a gun can do to a human body.

So my dad is going to lose toes. If he’s lucky it will end with that—the toes of his right foot. If not, it will be more. I venture yet again to the north for yet another procedure I must take him to, and sit with my mom who has emergent dementia and explain it all again.
