My most recently read book here is, Open Veins of Latin America, Five Centuries of the Pillage of a Continent by Eduardo Galeano #BookSky

So I assume that is SNL admitting Sinead O’Connor actually had a valid political point?

"Where justice is denied, where poverty is enforced, where ignorance prevails, and where any one class is made to feel that society is an organized conspiracy to oppress, rob and degrade them, neither persons nor property will be safe." - Frederick Douglas

I've always watched SNL despite finding the seasons from 2019 until now not particularly funny but tonight feels really special, even though I can't get down with the new era #SNL50

We're gonna fight like flamingos stepping in marsh land

A damn fine champion who was always down to fight multiple times a year and who's taken defeats with a graceful humility that is inspiring

Rogan: He's hurt! Anik: Shocks the world! Buffer: and NEW! Moicano: Everyone go read the Turner Diaries right now #UFC311

Joe Rogan asserted the lessons learned from training BJJ and the personal skills or character traits you have to develop will make you more inclined to be politically libertarian. This is, of course, horse shit and an attempt to launder one’s own ideology through sport: youtu.be/FVG1S-jfGzc?...

Blackshirts & Reds by Michael Parenti A well written and deeply researched 9 chapters covering numerous fragments of communist revolution, upheaval, rule and decline. Factually resourced into a digestible read of 160 pages, which I recommend to everyone no matter what side you favor.

Growing up with Sean McDonough on TV38, he had the most natural ability to tell you awful things so calmly and here we are, years later, 2 games in a row with multiple references to the ND kicker healing his groin injury with the help of his father, a chiropractor, just pure gold

It's been 36 hours and I still can't believe how bad Whitney Cummings is at comedy.

I want AOC. I want Dr. Cornell West. I want Danica Roem (metalhead)! There are a few people in politics who are less inclined to sell us down the river for a stick of chewing gum. But then I truly wonder if there’s just NOTHING out there. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Hearing how much Noah Eagle sounds exactly like Jim Nantz, makes me feel like I was dosed into a mashed up universe that I never intended to visit.

A direct (in this case heavy) lean into political partisanship is inevitably going to lead to downstream forms of industry homogenization. An underreported story in MMA is the ideological homogenization of the fan base. Now a sponsor change. Long-term effect remains unclear.

It's not just a lack of journos here but also a smart, engaged base like in New England, who monitors sports radio programming with unrelenting guile and keen sarcasm

This segment with Frank Greaney from @irishtimes.bsky.social on the McGregor sexual assault trial is one of the very best, most clarifying explanations I've heard. He expertly covers both broader context as well as trial specifics. Highest recommendation: www.irishtimes.com/podcasts/in-...
