At pride night at the cubs game, there is “play catch with a dad” thing in this little hangout area, and I have questions about the Cubs planning team

@chriscillizza.bsky.social would have done well in Nazi Germany.

“Senators in both parties raised strong objections to the treatment of Senator Alex Padilla. “I think it is very disturbing,” said Senator Susan Collins…” Why are we ever asking her questions? She has one song, and it’s not even an interesting one. Tal Bachman is a more interesting one hit wonder.

My original career aspirations was in journalism. I do not regret abandoning it. Journalism is about holding the power to account but modern news organizations provide nothing but anodyne nothingness.

I’m starting to feel like WWIII is going to be the entire world against us.

Great match. That’s definitely gonna sting for Sinner, but yes the type where I think he’ll come back stronger from it.

Rare display of frustration from Sinner. French Open needs to join all the other tournaments. Electronic line calls.

When in Germany as a kid, we were at a restaurant. We told my mom’s cousin our order in English, and he started to translate to German. The waiter, in perfect English, just said “I got it”

American women have won the first two slams of the year!

What a shot to go for down championship point

I don’t think the broadcasters have said anything for 4 points.

Sabalenka is not having a good day emotionally but Gauff’s relentlessness is a huge factor. It’s so frustrating playing a player who gets the shots that you feel should have won the point for you already.

Honestly, this game is fascinating to watch. Seeing Sabalenka hit both great and terrible shots, both stemming from her own frustration. The best part is she is up a break but you wouldn’t know it from her frustration.

Tommy Paul is going to be in the Top 10 when then next rankings and I feel he should lose a spot in the rankings for every payment he missed on his truck.

Called a Chicago specific automated phone system and there were three language options: 1. English 2. Spanish 3. An Eastern European language that had to be Polish I love Chicago

Tennis is an odd sport in how much fans change allegiance in the middle of a match. You’ll never see a Packers fan start cheering for the Bears because they made a good play and are making the game closer.

Wilson, Head, Yonex and Technifbre have all had grand slam champions in the past 5 years. The last Prince one I’m sure of is Sharapova. The last Prince man that I’m sure of is Rafter all the way back to the 90s. Anyone know of any other Prince champions since Sharapova?

No notes

My conspiracy theory is they don’t let you bring water through security to force you to spend money at the airport (yes I remember that stupid plot from like 20 years ago with the liquids)

While the drama is fun, I do want to re-up this.

well, now, hold on, that all depends what we're gonna do when he arrives

Just remember everyone, just because Littlefinger abandoned the Lannisters does not mean we should invite him into Winterfell.
