Could not be more excited for the Buffalo Bills defense under Jim Leonhard after his press conference today. He hit all the right notes on scheme, structure, identity, philosophy, connecting to players, managing players, & building around players

Just a fundamentally evil, malevolent person. Rotten to the very core.

We all know Bluesky is a sports app. But can it also become ... an NFL draft app?

Tide might be turning. Keep pushing. Keep calling, donating, protesting, all of it. Don’t stop, especially if Trump starts throwing them overboard. Don’t stop until they’re all gone

Love you KAT.

In 2025 America the only way the truth wins is if it gets more ratings, and more virality, than the lie

Absolute banger of a comment on r/military: www.reddit.com/r/Military/c...

Brandon Beane on Wednesday: "There is no frontrunner--old, young, former coach, first-time coach. We’re opening every door." Phillip Rivers has now entered the chat. What a week, #BillsMafia. Here's more. www.syracuse.com/buffalo-bill...

Source confirms Philip Rivers is interviewing today for the Bills’ head coaching vacancy. Adam Schefter was on it.

White House comms teams digitally alters image of civil rights lawyer Nekima Levy Armstrong to make it look like she was crying while arrested when in fact she was calm and composed (they also darkened her skin). She was arrested for 🧵 www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

Great thread from @gregtompsett.bsky.social. A lot of emotion/shock from Bills Mafia after letting go of McDermott, and rightfully so considering what he’s meant to this franchise and city, but I feel like many fans are coming around to these same conclusions after the dust has settled.

Did Brandon Beane orchestrate the Sean McDermott firing? Bills GM gives emotional plea, defending his character at season-ending press conference. www.syracuse.com/buffalo-bill...

I appreciate Brandon Beane's response and passion to the question about a power struggle. I accused him on a "coup", now after hearing his response, I don't think he had anything to do with this. I really don't. Maybe I'm just naive. Seemed sincere to me. This was all Terry.

I was completely in favor of firing BOTH McDermott and Beane, but after watching the presser today I'm honestly still glad Brandon Beane is an adult in the room that maybe can keep this thing afloat. #BillsMafia

For the first time in nearly 6 years, Bills owner Terry Pegula held a press conference after firing longtime head coach Sean McDermott earlier this week. Here's everything he said. #BillsMafia www.syracuse.com/buffalo-bill...

It appears Pegula gave most of the credit for the Bills success to Beane and none/little to McDermott

Bills owner Terry Pegula "I felt like we hit the proverbial playoff wall."

He's so tough to listen to...

Bills LT Dion Dawkins is 1 of 5 finalists for the NFLPA's Alan Page Community Award. Dawkins will receive a $10,000 donation toward his foundation, Dion's Dreamers. Wrote earlier this year about Dion, & how & why he finds time for community events all year round: buffalonews.com/sports/profe...

I wrote about Sean McDermott, fired after a loss that wasn’t really on him, and the simple reality that the eighth time was probably not going to be the charm READ: www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/...

Thanks for the memories, Sean. #BillMafia

Slept terrible last night. Go Bills.

LET’S GO!! Ed Oliver & Curtis Samuel activated I would expect Ed to play a limited number of targeted high leverage snaps Mecole Hardman & Frank Gore Jr elevated (maybe but likely no Ty Johnson) Opposite Cole Bishop it’ll be Jordan Hancock, Darnell Savage & Cam Lewis with no Hamlin activation

This year, I started a personal curriculum focused on Gothic fiction: core texts, criticism, and creative exercises. It’s a way to study the tradition I’m writing in instead of relying on vibes or nostalgia. Click here for details: https://kathlenebrown.substack.com. 📚💙 #personalcurriculum

Protester: This is nuts. What the fuck is going on, dude? This is insane. They tell you it's immigrants, only immigrants. It's fucking anybody. I have friends that got detained and all they were doing was fucking driving home from work. What the fuck?

Mike Tomlin informed the team in a meeting moments ago. After 19 seasons, there will be a new head coach in Pittsburgh.

The narrative is going to be about Josh Allen, but if Sean McDermott and Bobby Babich let the number 14 scoring offense get enough points to win and I have to watch Bo Nix celebrate on the field, I am gonna lose my marbles. Broncos offense turned it over the fifth-most times in the NFL.

Goosebumps appeared on Spencer Brown’s neck, and the hair rose on his arms as he replayed the moment in his mind when, with victory in the balance, the Buffalo Bills chose violence. He called it the "closest-to-God experience you can have out there.” www.nytimes.com/athletic/696...

My desk is overflowing with coffee mugs, index cards full of ideas, and (too many) notebooks. But today is National Clean Off Your Desk Day. It's like an exorcism, but cozy and oh-so-freeing. Time to clear out the corners of my desk AND my mind. What tends to clutter up your desk...or brain?

I honestly don't care who is next. Line 'em up. I like this squad vs anyone.

What I'm working on this month: Finally finishing my draft! This story has been a slow one, and at times, it's felt like pulling teeth. I'm so glad to be sprinting every day with the Writer's Sanctuary January Writing Fellowship to get through to the end. ✨ 🪐📚💙

No I said don’t tread on *me*. You can get treaded on.

"The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command."

Amplify people with possible solutions, calls to action, good ideas, messages of hope! Folks need strength, courage, useful information and the energy to mobilize right now, not doomscrolltainment.

The document is shorter, thin on evidence, and ignores long-standing research on saturated fat and heart disease. This isn’t a science update. It’s an ideological pivot. Link to Trumps new dietary guidelines: cdn.realfood.gov/DGA.pdf

I have to say, I’m really not thrilled that my country is devolving into a lawless gangster state abroad, and at home, one officially dead set on destroying science, art, and any shared feeling of common humanity

DANISH PARLIAMENT MEMBER: “🇺🇸 had 30 bases on Greenland, why did you leave? You can resume that tomorrow without attacking a NATO ally… the rationale lacks factual foundation and doesn’t stand any logic testing.” (Unless the point is to hurt us and end NATO, a Putin/Xi goal)

Starting tomorrow, the Trump administration is set to send notices to 1,000 student loan borrowers (first round) noticing them of an intent to garnish their wages for student loan debt. This is cruel and unnecessary. If you receive a notice, send it to us and we'll try to help.

Bills vs. Jaguars is up next in the 3-6 Wild Card matchup. My five early thoughts on the game: 🔘 Turnover battle looms large 🔘 Bills' injury situation 🔘 EverBank Stadium 👻 🔘 Oliver watch 🔘 Opportunity awaits #BillsMafia www.newyorkupstate.com/buffalo-bill...

goodnight!!!!!!

Last one out, hit the lights.
