How a Runaway Dog Became a Hero for New Orleans www.nytimes.com/2025/02/17/u...

Arsenal must sign a disappointing left 8 every summer, so they can become a highly impactful striker in every February

I'm not happy with how WROPS and WROBA have worked over the past two seasons. I've messed around with weighting, and managed some marginal improvement, but this year I went back to the drawing board. Say hello to SiYAA. www.acmepackingcompany.com/by-the-numbe...

I don’t think I’ve seen a team in any sport with this many cluster injuries in one season

Ollie is my first post on Flashes

Ugh I don’t have the words to describe how vile this is

I almost entirely use the Following feed here and often log on to see posts like "the end is nigh, be kind to your fellow travelers, and do not go gentle into that good night." It takes some effort to get more context, which is probably healthier than when I was a For You user on the other site.

Newly revealed emails show leaders of the NFL's New Orleans Saints using their influence to help the archdiocese address a sex-abuse scandal.

nah no way MLS scored and then did the haaland celly. this kid is HIM. HIM I TELL YOU

GET IN!!! Lewis-Skelly on the big stage

Just the worst! At literally every possible opportunity! (okay I'm done lib posting now)

People love to complain that the government doesn’t work while voting to empower officials that actively break what should be basic government functions

If it can happen in London, it can happen anywhere. We lost the beloved Sun-Ray Cinema here in Jacksonville and the filmgoing experience hasn’t been the same since.

One of the worst in a season of awful red card decisions

grateful for the thoughtful and (almost entirely) civil discussion here. There’s still a lot to learn and many battles to be fought. I just want us to choose the right ones.

The AI controversy surrounding THE BRUTALIST is the perfect encapsulation of the contemporary (social) media ecosystem where people jump to sweeping conclusions off headlines alone. Generative AI taking human jobs is bad (!!!!) but that’s not what happened.

No CHALLENGERS in original score... I feared days like this would come

am I feeling … good?

In @nytopinion.nytimes.com: Kyle MacLachlan writes of his longtime collaborator, the late David Lynch: “David didn’t fully trust words because they pinned the idea in place. They were a one-way channel that didn’t allow for the receiver. And he was all about the receiver.”

For @latimes.com Laura Dern writes about David Lynch in a reminiscence of beautiful set memories. I'm honored to have run this. www.latimes.com/entertainmen...

THE BRUTALIST: Drove to Orlando to see it in IMAX today (of all days). Breathtaking film that bluntly analogizes the tension between art and patronage to the tension between a nation’s purity and its capitalist machine. Also great on how deep pain is both repressed and expressed.

NICKEL BOYS, wow… essential and singular moviegoing experience

@ Emi Martinez

It feels like it’s Liverpool’s year (and decidedly not Arsenal’s)

This is a beautiful tribute.

not Lynch's movie, I know, but god, what a sendoff

I feel deep sorrow at the passing of the great David Lynch, and deep gratitude for his life and work. He changed movies. He changed television. He opened the eyes of generations of critics to new possibilities for both. And his two minutes in The Fabelmans will remain a source of joy for me forever.

Rest In Peace, David Lynch🌹

David Lynch and Bob Uecker in the same day đź’” devastating

Bob Uecker was born in Milwaukee, but, more accurately, Milwaukee was born for Bob Uecker, a man who personified—or maybe defined—that little city’s eccentric character more than anyone else who has ever existed or will ever exist. RIP to the voice of every single car ride from my childhood.

It’s the day we all hoped would never come. Bob Uecker, the voice of the Brewers for the last 54 years and “Mr. Baseball” to fans around the world, passed away overnight, according to his family and the team. He was 90. Summers in Wisconsin will never be the same.

An absolute goddamn legend. RIP.

I got my season ticket in 1992 so when I say I’ve seen some great defenders I’ve seen the best. Gabriel Magalhães stands shoulder to shoulder with the best I’ve seen.
