🚨 Mohamed Salah and Virgil van Dijk are closing in on new two-year contracts at Liverpool. @david-ornstein.bsky.social 🔗 www.nytimes.com/athletic/?so...

In any other administration, the president would already be huddled with advisors trying to stave off collapse

If you are not furious at what our government did to these people, there’s something wrong with you.

Trump has done the same damage to our health, environment and security as to our markets, it's just that there isn't a stock ticker that measures the impact so clearly

Another month’s books

There’s some free Prantl’s outside the Baum Blvd Hertz if anyone is hungry.

Can someone with the tech skills set up a BlueSky mirror for the @pghtransitalert Twitter? There’s info on there about the Grant Street closures that isn’t available on their website, and the Twitter feed is unusable without an X account.

Listen. I believe ardently in criticizing our leaders for their failures and inaction but if you refuse to acknowledge their efforts when they do make them and if you refuse to recognize a step in the right direction, you don’t really want change. You just want to complain.

This makes me feel ill.

There was an r/Pittsburgh post last night titled “Pig in Bloomfield backyard,” and I need to know where this pig is.

A rare (for me) sub 3-minute solve.

Highly, highly recommend both the Raymond Saunders and Gertrude Abercrombie retrospectives on at the Carnegie right now (the former through mid-July, the later through June 1). Loads of fantastic work on display.

So uh... how exactly is America going to host the World Cup next year with all these travel and immigration restrictions?

Feeling good about my primary vote today.

Finally remembered a #LetterboxdFriday, here are my #LastFiveWatched. Already thinking I rated Tick Tick Boom too highly. Not a ton of time for movies over the next week or two, but hoping to catch Universal Language this weekend.

I was excited the difference in American and European DST would allow me to watch the #LFC match today, but now I am just wracked with anxiety.

hey if you're visiting here because Vichy Twitter is down... don't go back! Bad website. Bluesky... pretty good website. At the very least, delete the X app from your phone and set your account to protected (when you can log in and do that again)

Just saw a couple at Giant Eagle. One had Drano, the other had a plunger. They gave each other a kiss as they wanted for a self-checkout to become available. That’s love.

Insane game. #LFC #YNWA

Just realized StoryGraph has these cool collages.

The new Ghost is Born remaster sounds incredible, but the price of eggs really is out of control.
