Tried to place a classified ad today in The Oklahoman (on behalf of my neighborhood association) and the contracted site to place an ad won't work. Comical summary of how corporate ownership continues to hamstring local papers. I'm trying to give them money!

May 1, 2011, was one of OKC’s greatest days. Marathon in the morning, people wearing their medals in the crowd for afternoon Game 1 western semis against the Grizzlies, arts festival afterward.

It's loser behavior to not wear the playoff shirt in OKC. No debate. www.oklahoman.com/story/sports...

My dad is the most devout Catholic in our family by a lot and he’s crushed. He’s always called Francis “a Christian pope.” His pastoral approach mattered.

@janiemccap.bsky.social enjoyed your story about the Stanford game and hope they beat the record even though I’m an OU fan going to an OU game tonight lol — one note though, there’s a new (soon-to-be-broken) regular-season record as of last week, 9,259 for Bedlam. www.oklahoman.com/story/sports...

Oklahoma Voice has been providing some great coverage recently. Truly we are lucky here with a lot of quality nonprofit media: @nondoc.bsky.social, @kgou.org, @oklahomawatch.bsky.social, @readfrontier.bsky.social, @freepressokc.bsky.social, @molliebryant.bsky.social. Probably leaving someone out.

The largest paying crowd in the history of Wrigley Field was the day Jackie Robinson made his debut. Wrigley is the only park left Jackie played a game in. Mike Ryoko was a kid at that ballpark that day and he wrote about it. Take a minute and read this today. press.uchicago.edu/Misc/Chicago...

I’ll vote for whoever requires restaurant kids menu mac and cheese to be regular grocery store mac and cheese. The kids do not want and will not eat your fancy mac and cheese, nor do they even believe it is in fact mac and cheese.

Watch as a herd of elephants at the San Diego Zoo protect their calves, Mkhaya and Zuli, during a 5.2-magnitude earthquake that shook Southern California. The animals repeated the behavior during an aftershock, but went back to their daily routines when the situation seemed safe. nyti.ms/3Eo2uW8

@edsbs.bsky.social @hollyanderson.bsky.social @newap-georgia.bsky.social @channel6.bsky.social Not the first or last OU fan to celebrate the funniest game of ‘24 but that score multiplied by three Selmon brothers, plus fees, quarterly … We didn’t even need Trevor Knight. (God bless Mrs. Selmon.)

A lot of CSAs in the OKC area appear to be kaput but Urban Agrarian offers a subscription box that is functionally the same thing. urbanagrarian.localfoodmarketplace.com/Subscriptions
