Snow event here is absolutely guaranteed to be a bust because tonight's band concert has been cancelled.

Is getting a message from your therapist like this bad? This sounds bad.

Why are ads for generic Viagra running on ESPN in prime time? Is it that hard up ... I mean, uh... I better rephrase that.

Of course ESPN finds Caitlin Clark's parents at Hilton Coliseum during the ISU-Iowa game.

Forum page has finally loaded after I skeeted this.

/sees news alert //starts Matt Campbell to Michigan rumors

The TV in the workout room at the apartment office is still broken. That means if I drag myself onto the treadmill, the turned-off TV reflects my Bozo the Clown-shaped natural hair, Klingon-ridge fivehead (from hair loss and birth doctor's use of forceps), sunken eye sockets and wide shoulders. 😑 😢

After Colin-Jost-as-Pete-Hegseth made an Animaniacs joke on SNL, I looked up info on the real Hegseth. He graduated high school in 1999. That is extremely too close to me for comfort. And his hair looks like THAT.

Is this the first appearance of @sickoscommittee.org in the Washington Post?

You will be visited by three spirits

It's a heck of a thing to wake up at 1 PM, realize there are only four hours of sunlight left, and accomplish precisely nothing except adding 10 new tabs during that period.

For those who wish to be educated and erudite: -Upper right photo is Cedar Rock, a house in the area designed by Frank Lloyd Wright -Upper left photo is the town museum downtown (which I loved) -It's one of two towns in Iowa that start with Q -It's pronounced Quas-quittin’ or just “Quasky” 1/2

The robots gave us answers that certain people didn't like. We killed the robots. Now we're back to the equivalent of smoke-filled rooms where some teams and conferences are more equal than others.

Campbell at PSU, 2026: $8 million in year 1, with $250,000 increase each year and $1M/year retention bonus (below) Campbell at ISU, 2025: $3.7 million (KCCI, 8/1/25) Ferentz at Iowa, 2025: $7,175,000 with $1M retention bonus (HawkCentral, 10/8/25)

I need to write something about my feelings about Matt Campbell, but I was also saving up certain things for a stemwinder of a rant at the beginning of next college football season, and if I go at everything that has pissed me off about this situation it's going to be 5000 words.

/resets "days since Mom not only e-mailed my deadname Gmail but deliberately deadnamed me in the intro" to zero

It is taking a LOT of restraint right now to not call the Fullcast number and drop a bunch of F-bombs in various directions. (None toward the crew, of course.)

FUCKING HELL HOW DOES PENN STATE FUCKING UP A COACHING SEARCH FUCK IOWA STATE THIS BADLY

IOWA STATE DID WHAT SERIOUSLY I left my phone because I had to shovel the car out before church and then I had an afternoon concert and IOWA STATE DID FUCKING WHAT

Guess who happened to find out the door to the apartment building was open by a WHOLE FOOT while snow has continued to fall?

@sickoscommittee.org Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to come into possession of BOTH the "Ohio State 2025 Big Ten Football Champions" and "Virginia 2025 ACC Football Champions" T-shirts.

been there (well, not at a CCG)

This means Stanford is going to win the ACC men's basketball season, doesn't it?

This came up a full 30 seconds before I saw it happen, burn the witch

The team that wakes up the cheeziest shall choose whether they start on offense or defense.

oh ffs duke

/Iowa State, Vanderbilt, Mississippi State, Ole Miss, Minnesota, and Kansas wave as Indiana leaves the "no conference title since before the moon landing" club

ALL THE OHIO STATE SURRENDER COBRAS

WIDE LEFT

An illegal block on the DEFENSE? Man.

The Register's Iowa State sports columnist screwed up a DuckTales reference and I am annoyed. It was NEVER a "swimming pool of gold." IT IS A MONEY BIN.

Congratulations to Texas Tech on having the best non-Big Ten non-SEC football team money can buy, I guess.

Thanks to my futzing around on BlueSky not only did I not have time to get to the gym (the TV in the apartment complex workout room is still broken), but I needed milk and the lines at Wal-Mart were 10 deep, negating anything else before work.

🌪️ 81 🚂 58 😳 🍆

Tyrese Haliburton is in the house for ISU at Purdue. Celebrity camera sighting and everything.

The good news is, I have successfully stayed cooped up for the past three days. The bad news is, I need milk.

I DON'T HAVE ANY NUTS ANYMORE AND I STILL MANAGED TO BE KICKED IN THEM

ISU players meeting at 7 PM. That's it, then.

If Campbell goes to Penn State, should I call in a pithy rant to the Fullcast number?

One is a street-hardened cat who knows the law of the urban jungle and makes sure no one gets hurt. One is a new addition to the force, a loose cannon leaving no mouse alone, no box un-sat-in. Now they have to work together.

Oh bloody hell. They called in the big guns. And by big guns, I mean the most rabid anti-vaxxers in the country. The linked slide show complains there was not a controlled trial for the TDAP shot, i.e. diptheria, tetanus, pertussis. THEY'RE GOING AFTER WHOOPING COUGH.

fuck

GUESS WHO WANTS TO GNAW THEIR FOOT OFF AT THE ANKLE TO STOP THE PERIPHERAL NEUROPATHY LIGHTNING STRIKES MAYBE UP AT THE KNEE IT'S NOT MY DRIVING FOOT ANYWAY OW OW OW OW OW OW

welp

I'd like to like this, but I can't. Iowa State has decided that pummeling HBCUs is better for its schedule (and revenue) than playing true road games at UNI and Drake. Yes, ISU will be playing at Purdue Saturday, but aside from one random H&H the only tests are at invitationals and vs. Iowa.

I stirred the goulash with my left hand and my Fitbit counted it as steps, so I guess that's my exercise for the day.
