Thank god there are no gender studies classes anymore otherwise we might be able to figure out what's going on here.

Goodness I was not expecting that

It’s been a very long time since I’ve hoped for the ’meteor’ of the soccer gods but here we are

An amazing quote from Lindsey Graham in this Atlantic story. It really captures an essential truth about politics that too few people ever really come to terms with. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

Yaaaay spainnnnns

yay!

one thing about writing an entire book about sandwiches is my brain is just full of random facts now. coffee plants were forcibly introduced to java by the dutch. tuna fishes have extraordinarily high lung capacity. barbecue was a status symbol denoting slave ownership in the antebellum south

OMG Egypt!

All of this is so nasty. www.politico.com/live-updates...

Guys we have gotten 3 donated window units and are nearly at the cash to buy a 4th one new. The babies are going to sleep cool!

Many of you need to dust off your soccer blogs for the rest of this World Cup!

FINALLY sat down to read this and it is so moving. Please, if you haven’t yet, take the time.

For my sins, I read and reviewed JD Vance's spiritual memoir. You're welcome. religionnews.com/2026/06/24/i...

this is a really excellent and important essay about an overlooked public health issue in Chicago and beyond: thetriibe.com/2026/06/essa...

I’m here at the hottest nightlife place in all of DC: the reflecting pool, where everyone is talking about algae.

Perfect. Thank you, Governor Hochul.

This hockey game is bananas

I am starting a rumor that Trump will debut a new presidential uniform on July 4. Please spread.

If I ever teach political theory again I’m not going to do the Prince. Mach’s Disc on Livy is much more interesting.

In the end we were just his latest casino and whatnot.

I’m at the giant print bible stage of my life 🤓

@webbiewebbster.bsky.social hope You and D are taking care of yourselves.

horrible. this country’s turn away from science based medicine in the name of “wellness” is killing children and will kill a lot more. www.propublica.org/article/more...

I really wish we started treating Twitter in the same way we did 4chan. The legacy of what Twitter was and the problematic relationship people have with it prevent them from seeing that it’s 4chan. Yeah it can be funny, interesting, and wild…but you’re still on /b/ and /pol/… it’s bad for you.

Democratic voters turned against Israel. Now their politicians are following. www.vox.com/politics/486...

'Texas A&M philosophy professor Martin Peterson is leaving the university after administrators told him in January that he couldn’t teach Plato’s Symposium in his philosophy class; they said the ancient Greek philosopher’s work violated the system’s restrictions on gender and sexuality content.' 1/3

"Across the country, the empire builders of AI have sold themselves as the gateway to the future you’ve always dreamed of, and the solution to the problems they helped bring about." @timothypmurphy.bsky.social on the rise of our AI oligarchy.

Victoria Embankment Gardens

Trump/Vought are planning to eliminate the program that oversees social science funding from the National Science Foundation, and they are not going to wait for Congress to weigh in because they have already shown they believe they have the power of the purse. bsky.app/profile/lizn...
