Mike McCarthy hahahaha Birds should hire Jason Garrett as OC.

Tmperature is below zero, and I feel a little betrayed by the promise of global warming. But it was 81 in Mumbai today, and 84 in Nairobi. So I guess I just picked the wrong place to live in January

how long before Minnesota secedes and becomes a province of Canada?

the Board of Peace is a Trump real-estate development project

Bob Weir RIP have to fill the big hole in my timeline with something www.youtube.com/watch?v=lTcx...

I'm trading Patullo and AJ for a 7th

Eagels are wonderful Why y'all bad mouthing them?

New York Times headline: "Indiana-Miami is the most unique championship in college football history" "most unique" et tu @nytimes.com

gonna start watching the new season of The Pitt. It couldn't be as bloody as this Ducks-Hoosiers slaughter

if you pick a safety late, aren't you likely picking a middling player, who will command middling money in free agency what would Kyle Hamilton or Minkah Fitzpatrick command? currently they're guaranteed $20M and $18.8M respectively

if I were the Commanders, I would have thrown into the end zone on the last play to see if I could draw another pass interference call. take that, Nick Sirianni

so that's why Dillon is still on the roster

TANK

behave yourself, Canada

baby Sandhill cranes are called colts. Not chicks, colts. You have now learned one actual fact on bluesky thanks to Aldo Leopold, writing 75 years ago

football fans, this is a good article www.nytimes.com/athletic/689...

all the Eagles fans are beating up on Kevin Patullo I think you have to consider the possibility he has done exactly what Nick Sirianni asked him to do

Stephen Millers thinks Trump's kids are a problem? He thinks Vance's wife is dangerous? Here's the headline in the NYTimes "Stephen Miller Cites Children of Immigrants as a Problem" kinda surprised the article doesn't mention these notorious immigrant children

TANK!

who knew? in all the lead up to the Eagles v Raiders, I have not seen a single mention of Devin White. in 24, the Eagles signed him and cut him. a blip. in 25 with the Raiders, he has 133 tackles so far, second most in the NFL

you've seen this, haven't you? it's not a small thing. it's huge. it's distressing. it's more madness

just saw something labeled "FIFA ethics" and thought shouldn't that be filed under "oxymoron"?

hey Eagles fans, remember when our biggest worry was Adoree? those were some fun times

must reading for. Birds' fans

my feed is now about 50% Eagles, which was good--a fun way to avoid the awfulness of Trump and Trumpers being corrupt and illegal. but now the Eagles are as dispiriting and infuriating as Trumpland. I need a fresh distraction

worrisome finding. A Boston University study finds a reduction in snowpack may slow forest growth, resulting in less carbon storage. Not sure when people will not longer be able to deny the hotter climate and worrisome consequences, but we already see it. www.bu.edu/articles/202...

no big deal. it's just a game for boys

@jimmykempski.bsky.social this piece struck me as having a bit of a "jimmy" vibe. noting it, in case you missed it. (I expect you didn't.) www.nytimes.com/athletic/680...

"Nurses should take over." I believe Schlossberg is serious when she writes this. She is correct.

David Murphy's ( @highcheese.bsky.social) Inquirer column today is worth a look www.inquirer.com/eagles/jalen... He talks about wins but fails to discuss the importance of STATISTICS. wins=pffft. gaudy stats=now you'e talkin Joe Burrow has stats. Hurts has wins. Who you gonna pick?

Eagles' fans, show Adoree a little respect today.

won't pay taxes, but will pay a bribe

25 minutes before the trading deadline. c'mon Howie, quit dawdling

the man definitely deserves the peace prize

This is a good point

I am "officially" old. I have no idea who bad bunny is, and I don't give a fuck.

to spray or not to spray? was recently considering whether to use Round-up (glyphosate) for management of invasive honeysuckle in my woodlands. So far, I have chosen not to, but . . . www.nytimes.com/2025/09/28/o...

58 million pounds of corn dogs! seriously? you could get a twisted bowel just reading about that www.nytimes.com/2025/09/29/b...

people are dunking on Sunstein because of his Kissinger endorsement in the Chotiner interview in The New Yorker. Well, Sunstein said also said this, so he's all right by me "talking about the President makes me grumpy and talking about . . . John Rawls makes me the opposite of grumpy."

first skein of geeze flying south, first fire of the season in the wood stove frost last night, possibly again tonight.

How do we know Redford is dead and not on the run in Bolivia?

looking forward to the Isaac Chotiner interview of Ezra Klein

wow, this is a special piece of writing. the Thrilla in Manilla provides the lens into a great fight and the tangled relationship of two proud black men from the South who fought Jim Crow before they fought each other. just exceptional www.theatlantic.com/magazine/arc...

Robert Redford, who played a Washington Post reporter covering the Watergate scandal, has died. So has the Post.

the definition of futility: "For more than four decades, Colombia has been a cornerstone of U.S. counternarcotics strategy abroad, receiving billions in aid while providing intelligence on routes, networks and shipments." NYTimes 40 years, billions of dollars. uh guys, what are you thinking?
