Seeing Guernica in person was the first time I had a vivid emotional and physical response to a piece of artwork. It’s unforgettable.

Sorry To Be That Guy Fun Fact: this is known as "bob-tailing" and it's actually not as easy to drive the tractor with nothing attached, especially if the roads are slippery. Plus, with no haul a lot of drivers don't get paid if they drive like this.

@edzitron.com what could possibly go wrong? between this and continuing to work with ICE in the prisons, my enthusiasm for the Healy administration is dwindling to almost 0.

12/12, the best I will ever do on LL. Thanks @zachgozlan.bsky.social this was fun.

This is the best halftime show since Prince.

My new yard sign works on so many levels.

Monday morning Moira Rose tribute at work. RIP.

She could make pronouncing a single syllable absolutely hilarious. That's how you elevate a script. What a loss.

This tracks. Three of worst five or so Presidents have been during my 43 years here. I’d put Harding and Buchanan in there with Reagan, W, and Trump.

This is how we’re going to defeat fascism. Mass nonviolent civil resistance works.

Tear it all down and start over

It’s not enough to say Abolish ICE. It’s not enough to vote no on ICE funding. It’s not enough to confront Kristi Noem or Greg Bovino with Stern Words. If you are a leader, what are you doing to protect your community? How are you using your power, privilege, and position to confront this threat?

9 yo looking at the baseball schedule: “Dada, do we get Jackie Robinson Day off from school?”

Was so happy to see my favorite cartoon dog and my favorite former Washington Post-er @davejorgenson.bsky.social have a chat that both my kids and my in-laws can watch and learn something from www.youtube.com/watch?v=qLrA...

Two straight years of every single “bye week” team losing in CFP is completely unsustainable. There are going to be major changes and earlier expansion if this keeps up. And yes, I’m also disappointed Ohio State looked awful and lost yesterday.

On recommendation from someone else on here I started “Children of Time” and I’m about 2/3 of the way though this entertaining, engrossing read. So glad @barryp.bsky.social enjoyed it too! defector.com/the-best-thi...

Appropriate fortune for Xmas eve. Happy holidays all.

Extremely proud that I failed this... ahem, I mean "crashed out" on it (I think?) www.nytimes.com/2025/12/23/s...

“I ate his leg so he wouldn’t run away”

We have instituted a hard "No YouTube unless one of us is in the room" rule with our kiddos, and have to remind my father-in-law every week that YouTube is NOT the news

The Rock broke the news of Bin Laden's death to most of the world, seems appropriate for him to do it again when It happens

Jeff Goldblum voice: “Life, uh, finds a way.”

My alma mater, the frattiest of the MAC, is going to the Snoop Dogg Bowl for the SECOND year in a row. Most appropriate halftime show would be The Gourds playing a 10 minute version of “Gin and Juice”

explain why it’s not “The Devil Wears Prada Too” i demand more creativity in sequel naming

i’m in this picture and i don’t like it

how does this keep staying relevant

truly, a Mr. Irrelevant for our times

Taylor Swift is the LA Dodgers, Lily Allen is the Toronto Blue Jays. I will not be accepting questions at this time.

The through line seems to be “if you have a weak bullpen, don’t play an 18 inning game in the middle of the World Series”

I lived this at our elementary school Bingo Night yesterday. Every kid went nuts and did the little arm dance at “O-67” being called and every parent looked around gobsmacked.

Long car ride turned Normal Gossip into a family podcast. Thanks @mckinneykelsey.bsky.social my kiddos loved the epic tale of Puka/Bon Bon.

Yes, I know this NYT op-ed is about animal testing and is serious... but this is immediately where my mind went

Opening with “Golden” is the easiest layup the Oscars have ever had.
