You're not allowed to be mad that it's cold in February in Chicago

All I want is a women's hockey broadcast that talks about the hockey: defector.com/all-i-want-i...

The thing about how hard it is to get a job as an artist is that it's not really supposed to be a job. Now it's basically impossible to make a living without working all hours or selling out to a soulless entity, so the choice is "turn it into a job" or not do it.

Wishing a meaningful & reflective Mark Wahlberg 40 Day Challenge to all who observe.

My dad is a retired actuary, and his stance on pensions is basically that they were an anomaly of the unique post war economy in the US, and people now forget that they only existed for a little while. I kinda feel the same way about the idea of being a famous professional living artist.

Please keep boosting asks and giving to folks in Minnesota who are in danger of losing housing, we need to get these asks in front of folks who aren't from here, because a lot of us are already tapped out

On the one hand, LLMs are largely posturing machines that generate continually appropriate but meaningless symbols. On the other hand that might actually be enough to replace a lot of white collar jobs.

"design pillory can't be sawed through no ai"

The US extracted the wealth from Puerto Rico through sugar/tobacco plantations for decades while paying farm laborers almost nothing. The Jones act has taxed Puerto Ricans to prop up a US shipping cartel for a century. The only parasites are the wealthy Americans extracting wealth from the island.

Guess Who's Coming to Dinner?

No Kings includes Draft Kings

(Walking up to you with barf on my sweatshirt) so what are we doing next

well that’s very specific

Thank you everyone for supporting the album and design, honored to be recognized by the Clio Music Awards

Philly Quizzo legend Johnny Goodtimes eulogized Dan McQuade so beautifully here:

Some thoughts on one of the best friends I ever had.

Basically every small business is posting that they can't afford to close for a day when rent is due immediately after. Who is planning this

Sixers hold a moment of silence for Dan McQuade.

If you want to ensure there won't be violence at the polls, end this shit. This isn't "Trump will stop the midterms". He's NOT gonna stop the midterms but he's gonna ask gun happy ICE agents to stand around and maybe shoot another Alex Pretti or Renee Good and one more death is already too many

BREAKING: Border Patrol Cmdr. Gregory Bovino has been carried away by a small Minnesota owl, reportedly used to patch tiny hole in nest

my QB ate shit on the 5 yard line and i laughed out loud

I am having a hard time feeling like doing anything other than, to be polite, administering justice for everything that is happening. But I think that building the foundation is more important.

Yesterday, I drove refugees that had been shipped off to Texas all the way back home to St. Paul Seeing them reunite with their families reminded me this is their home. So keep sending them to Texas. I’ll keep driving ‘em back and introducing them to Bucc-ee’s and KC barbecue along the way.

who the fuck WANTS their posts to go viral, have you ever had that actually happen? it's like getting a winning pull on a slot machine if wasps started pouring out the bottom instead of quarters

Nooooo

Childhood answer: The Piccadilly Pub. New England pub chain that set the standard for potato skins for the rest of my life. Adult answer: Bar Biscay. Sister restaurant is still open but I learned so much about what I like to eat there. Boquerones and draft vermouth for life.

Futures on Jarrett Stidham SBMVP are through the roof

This is the stupidest game

Very tangential point: it's distressing to me how many avowed anti-capitalists won't engage with forms of thought and analysis because they struggle to frame value outside of the concept of money.

How I created this floating effect

Condé Nast forgot to renew the trademark for Gourmet and so a group of journalists grabbed it and are relaunching the food magazine as a worker-owned co-op. Love it. [gourmetmagazine.net]

"an incomplete pass as the clock hits two minutes left" is a lyric from football superfan alanis morissette

Jim Harbaugh did something so stupid that he made Cris Collinsworth sound smart congratulations Jim Harbaugh

Awful game, I had a great time

Watching the game with a bears fan and a Packers fan and this is like the bizarro Manningcast

What the fuck is Ben Johnson thinking

First class passengers getting seated first is one thing, being forced to wait to get to my seat because they're getting their pre boarding drink service is another

You're not a founder unless the thing you built either outlived you or is a cult.

The efforts to get anyone in power to do anything all seem like the attempt to find the oasis in Fury Road.

Pete Carroll is going to be so pissed

Consistently seems like a lot of democratic politicians are Republican voters who took the best available job

This anecdote from @blockclubchi.bsky.social really speaks to the recklessness of federal law enforcement in Chicago this fall, as judged by other police and now a National Guard member (running for office) blockclubchicago.org/2025/12/30/c...

The problem I have with shows like this is that they tend to be different from reality in almost unnoticeable but very important ways that people start to confuse with actual reality

During gatherings where there's open bar I am Data

I cannot answer any year end prompts. i can't remember anything anyone said about me on here

My mom randomly asked Felicity Huffman for a restaurant recommendation in the street without knowing who she is. She enthusiastically gave us a bunch of great ones.
