Hey friends! I am running for JCPS School Board. I would appreciate your help or a donation of $25. Learn more about the campaign here: kahneforschoolboard.com

Mark it down to "surprising to some, but not me": Craig Greenberg totally swept West Louisville, and Shameka Parrish-Wright's strength were around Germantown and Clifton. IYKYK

GET IT TOGETHER BARDWELL

I could not be more impressed by Zach Dembo. I was a strong supporter of Cherlynn Stevenson (she would have been a great congressperson), and I dismissed Dembo out of hand when I heard about his campaign. He really impressed throughout. I think he has a very legitimate chance to make it to DC.

My favorite inside baseball fact about the KY Elections is that the legislature moved to make the Metro Council/Metro Mayor non-partisan, but didn't mess with any other elections in Jefferson Co, leaving Shively, the tiny city in SW Louisville, as the only place with partisan city elections in KY

In baseball news, more teams in the NL Central have winning records than the entire AL

The number of people in the online left who want to re-ban sports betting but legalize more drugs is bonkers to me.

Friendly reminder that Tidal is cheaper than Spotify, pays artists more, and, well... isn't run by the dude who runs Spotify. Personally I also much prefer Tidal's algos but that's a YMMV thing. Anyway, it used to be way more expensive but it isn't anymore, and I think it's a better product.

I am excited about Will Stein and agree with other Kentucky fans than a change was for the best, but Mark Stoops was the best coach we ever had, and it's not close. That part of this really sucks.

Dog we operate the money printer we couldn't be more liquid

Tidal served me the 20th anniversary of Z by My Morning Jacket and the second half of Solace by Bryson Tiller first in my "New Music" tab today Instagram of Taylor Swift, this is my most Louisville moment

BRING BACK THE MAN SHOW!

Brittany Howard, Brandon Flowers, Ezra Koenig are my answers to this question

Psaki: Comer was a little slow to move forward with the subpoenas, at least in my view. Moskowitz: That’s actually his regular speed. He’s just a little slow in general.

Ketamine is killing our billionaires. Why don’t liberals care?

ICYMI: a late night weekend newsletter from Robert previewing the US Senate primary: open.substack.com/pub/myoldkyp...

Give to LPM and vote for Democrats.

Actor Mandy Patinkin’s plea for Jews to consider how what Netanyahu’s Israeli government is doing to Gaza is not just harming Palestinians and killing kids — but also endangering Jews across the globe.

9/11

www.wdrb.com/news/jeffers... We got cops killing civilians, throwing slushees at kids, siccing dogs on people, raping kids, etc, but once they start getting into BDSM, that's when they get fired.

Very (not) excited to see this come to Kentucky next year

I have no inside info on this at all but based on reports of who mayors have entertained in the past few years, Louisville worked hard to get one of these franchises. Alas, they seem to only go to places with existing NBA teams

My main takeaway from the NYC Dem primary is that anybody can win if they work hard. I don't always agree with DSA people but they are the hardest working part of the Democratic coalition. Also it helps if your main opponent had to resign in disgrace after a sexual abuse scandal.

Rahm Emanuel neatly demonstrates the basic error that Democrats make when they try to step back from social issues: IT’S THE REPUBLICANS, NOT THEM, who are “talking about bathrooms and locker rooms.” You can’t fix this by changing the topic, only by defending your ideas and going on offense.

Rep. Morgan McGarvey, who broke his foot (!) on the second play of last year’s game, is nervous but excited to play again this year. He’s the likely Dem starter at catcher. #CBG25

Edmonton seems impossibly north but it's only 2 degrees of latitude above London. That's weird!

It'll be a decade or more before we'll get a good estimate about how many deaths occurred because of the destruction of US AID but when it's all figured out I expect Elon Musk to rival Stalin, Hitler, Pol Pot etc in the ratio of total deaths caused to total days in power.

and honestly, the obsession over “we should have said more about biden being old” starts to grate when the currently serving president is very obviously impaired by age and cognitive decline, to crickets from the press

Meet DNC Chair @kenmartin.bsky.social, a leader committed to fighting for working-class Kentuckians. With a focus on year-round grassroots organizing and putting the needs of everyday people first, Martin is ready to help rebuild the Democratic Party in Kentucky and across the nation. 💪

Forgetting your Pegasus pin at home and having to buy another one: a KDF tradition unlike any other

Vladimir, STOP!

Trump's education cuts steal $2,000 from EVERY Kentucky student — and even more from our vulnerable children. His administration punishes children in poverty, with disabilities, and experiencing homelessness the hardest. Don't let the KY GOP lead you to believe they care about Kentucky's kids.

Why do people even care what Katy Perry is doing? You can ignore her if she bothers you that much.

CBS says it's "unthinkable" that some CBB rosters will get paid upwards of $10M per year. Meanwhile... www.cbssports.com/college-bask...

Nothing more upsetting than fascists on the defensive

He doesn't even want to have sex with his partners, he just wants to get them pregnant. Total freak.

✍️

The KY GOP has a pattern of complete carelessness and it shows 🙄 This 2025 session, Democratic Sen. @cassieforky.bsky.social stepped up by sponsoring and passing SB 120 on child abuse training and reporting in schools. Who really cares about Kentucky’s kids? Kentucky Democrats.

Unlike that Florida student he stalked, who DIDN'T want to give Todd Golden some love

There's a lyric from the Ben Folds song "Still Fighting It" that goes "You're so much like me, I'm sorry" and I really resonated with that while watching my child lose it while the carnival was packing up before she got her balloon animal, despite receiving assurances she would get her butterfly.

I've decided to invest in physical media this year and I regret to inform everyone that CD wrappers remain a total pain to open.

The mRNA COVID vaccine was a scientific miracle, and people reading history a century from now will be completely bewildered by not only the lack of celebration but the outright hostility toward this achievement.

Happy Trans visibility day. I advocate for trans people because they are my friends. I think if more people who had thoughts about trans people actually took the time to get to know trans people, we would be in a much better place.

Duke has no wider fanbase, but the wild thing is that every annoying nerd i ever knew who went there turned into a massive basketball fan, even the ones who didn't care about sports before going there.

It's always a little disconcerting to turn on a Reds home game and see fans in the stands

It's bad for college basketball that all this is happening at 12:21 AM on the east coast.

162-0 incoming. #stlcards

Kim Schatzel quit and Eli Capiluto folded like a cheap suit so we're doing FINE here.
