Measles If you were born between 1957-1968, your MMR vax was less effective than what came later & you may need boosting. If you were born before ~1984, there's a small chance it may no longer be protecting you & you may need boosting. I just messaged my doc to ask re: a "titer test" to find out.

this is a dril tweet

Moneyball (2011) viewed as a standalone story may be the best baseball movie ever made. Moneyball (2011) viewed as a way to build a team may be more destructive to the mindset of most fans than anything since at least the strike in 94.

This isn’t even the reason why I contemplated writing a piece entitled “Dear god, can everyone please ignore James Carville forever” this weekend but honestly the to-write list is long.

This is so awesome for so many reasons. First, the players, but second will be watching all the old Yankees fans lose it

Sigh. Look. I can feel that screaming at the Dems to be better is growing tiresome, but this kind of framing makes me bananas. They’ve made it clear they don’t care if we die! Say that! With your chest! Stop pretending we don’t have documented answers to these queries and message better!

The Democrats are taking another long weekend and STILL agreeing to unanimous consent. It’s fucking insane. These people are not fucking listening.

I shudder to think about what kinds of life choices a person has to have made to become someone who waits in line in single-degree temps to see Hakeem Jeffries promote his book.

Public comment is now open for passport gender marker changes. You can go here to go to each of the three proposed passport rules, and submit comment. My suggestion: be unique, argue for trans-inclusive policies, against the constitutionality of the changes, etc. www.reddit.com/r/Passports/...

Baseball is back everybody we did it

Instead of doing something simple and effective, why not do a very a complicated form of a nothing that hands a loaded gun to your opposition? That's the Democrat Promise

Post-fires in LA, "undocumented day laborers will likely make up a significant portion of the workforce tasked with clearing debris and rebuilding homes. As they navigate the environmental hazards of this work, they’re also facing the Trump administration’s escalating crackdown on immigrants."

This makes me so fucking angry. This poor baby. There is a special place in hell for the parents of her bullies. This is on them. Spreading hate and raising racist little assholes. share.newsbreak.com/bkyor14f?s=i16

Fascinating profile of a park ranger in San Francisco who works with unhoused residents and has adopted the novel tactic of treating them like human beings, building relationships, and helping them access resources on their own timeline.

Time to evict AirBnB from your life, if you have't already.

All these articles about Democrats moaning over their messaging issues make me tired. You know what's more important than messaging? ACTION. Don't TALK about the price of eggs. Tell people "MEET US IN THE PARK - WE'RE GIVING OUT FREE EGGS. THAT'S RIGHT - FREE EGGS FROM THE DEMOCRATS!"

We now have a website. udm14.com

Republicans are entirely at fault. It would've been better had none of them won their elections. But that doesn't excuse Democrats from failing to use the same parliamentary maneuvers Republicans have used for decades to hinder Democratic majorities. If we have to shame them into it, so be it.

Hundo. The formality of the thank you note doesn’t mesh with current cultural norms & schedules. But also? I think we’ve become oddly lax about demonstrating gratitude at all. If someone takes the time to gift you something, take 30 seconds for a “thank you I love it!” text.

this that grey poupon that evian that ted talk

they can take over the entire country but they can never actually be cool and it will eat at them forever

All snark aside, genuine congrats to the transcendent city of Philadelphia, spiritual sibling of Chicago.

If you can't appreciate the petty beef of that halftime show, you're not American. Public beefs are a long tradition in this country going back to Burr and Hamilton.

It is now baseball season. Everyone stop having fun

That camera was 6 inches from Jalen Hurts’s face and my god there is not a pore in sight.

It's very remarkable Mahomes could throw a TD like that and everyone reacts "who cares. Die motherfucker!"

FUCK YOU DICKHEAD GO BIRDSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

when I say car culture is the vanguard of American cultural hegemony, this is what I mean

Never seen a team try to ice their OWN kicker.

Super Bowl blowouts usually suck but this one is a work of art, just a complete middle finger to everything that’s happening

Fly Eagles Fly just reverberated throughout the dome. Dagger.

usually a blowout in the super bowl is boring and shitty but this is different. this feels great.

Harrison Butker may as well have spent the first half in the kitchen where he belongs.

me, a cubs fan, rooting with everything i have for the eagles fans to undo whatever the fuck we did in 2016

Also, as others have noted more eloquently than I can, that whole show was aimed right between the eyes of Trump's America. A great artist showing what great art can do.

Serena Williams!

Where can one rewatch that half time show with pauses and liner notes and lyrics?

"I want to perform their favorite song, but you know they love to sue" - Kendrick Lamar

THE ENTIRETY OF THE SUPERDOME AT THE SUPER BOWL JUST YELLED A MINORRRRRRR

We are living in the golden age of being a hater.

Kendrick legit the GOAT hater, what a man

This not only rules but is pissing off all the most annoying people :)
