22-year-old Ward Sakeik, a Palestinian woman who has lived in Texas since she was 9, says her experience in federal detainment could only be identified as “human trafficking.” And she’s not staying quiet about the women she was forced to leave behind. thebarbedwire.com/2025/09/22/w...

Thomas Bangalter could go 12-5 with a 3.63 ERA but Nathan Eovaldi could never make "Discovery"

thinking about how my dad freaked out when paparazzi caught one of the daft punk guys at the airport with his helmet off and he was wearing a Texas Rangers hat

eagle :(

i think everyone should have to watch Freaks and Geeks when they turn like 13

the mandalorian and grogu looks like a longform verizon commercial

i think it should be bigger news that the state of texas took over one of the largest public school districts in the nation and appointed a weird linkedin hustle grindset guy to be in charge

not to editorialize but this linkedin post from state-appointed houston ISD superintendent mike miles ragging on the houston chronicle is so insane

and you know, jesse, a lot of people are saying that it's going to happen this week. i don't know how do they know that? let's just say that it's going to be interesting, we'll be seeing a lot of people go [blink] and go to heaven. i don't think i'll be going though, we'll be seeing.

what if the rapture really does happen on tuesday

ngl the past few weeks of baseball have bummed me the fuck out, i know it's just sports but i've had a lot going on and the astros were one of the good consistent things in my life. probably should not have hitched my mental health to a baseball team but i guess we do funny things

the time of year to bust this bad boy out

I'm only posting bc i took a break from my puzzle to post about the astros game. anyway i checked the score and im going back to my puzzle

not sure how but this feels worse than the 2023 ALCS

Look at this idiot

Framber Valdez YOU are a Chunichi Dragon

just get into the playoffs, you get to play the a's and angels, don't waste it

Joe Espada getting ejected and just not leaving the game is so funny. I didn't know you could do that

at least i got to see a grand slam

man that's the game there sadly

lmao i'm sitting in front of mariners fans and they're silent now

that jeremy pena grand slam was the coolest thing i've ever seen in person

PENA HOLY SHIT

beautiful bunt from jake

the astros deserve to miss the playoffs

currently at record-high search interest for canceling disney plus. pulling kimmel is a bigger deal to the company's bottom line than any of the "woke" scandals of the past 5 years. i think news & entertainment corp execs need put more work into understanding their audience, & get off twitter

The people that voted for him are too servile to get mad about it but it is bleakly funny that Trump has won two elections as The Expediter Of White Vengeance and as soon as he gets into office the most important thing to him is getting Rosie O'Donnell digitally edited out of A League Of Their Own.

this exists it is called thinking

This doesn't quite get at what happened with Kathy Banks. Banks, by one account, interfered in McElroy's hiring and tried to water down McElroy's job offer. She also had a host of other problems including trying to shut down the student newspaper.

"The even more particular point was to take the college where every kid who grew up queer or weird in Florida or just smart enough to seem like an alien would feel at home as an adult, autonomous person and pave it over with the same place they were running from."

Hey friends! I rarely ask for this, but my coworker and I took part in a charity pumpkin carving contest today. Dallas Education Foundation, our pick, will get $1k. We can get another $1K if we get enough votes from the public. Can you vote and share this? docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

another case of people reading a headline and either not reading or misreading an article. the actual reporting does not say anything like "all trans people are being classified as terrorists" i understand why people are scared. i also feel like reading comprehension is at an all time low

i would love a deep dive into how starbucks names on cups became like, a conservative outrage touchstone because it's been over a decade ATP

My deadname is actually also Gwen funny enough

The "21% of americans are trans thing" is so funny because ironically if a fifth of the population was being vilified like trans people are cis people might actually care

remembering an old reminder that if you know someone's deadname, no you don't
