Got a tour offer and maybe I should quit my stable job and get back to it.

It took KCD2 to stop me from thinking about Balatro. Incredible game.

IT’S ISMAILA SARR!!! #cpfc

Ben Chilwell looks like a Pixar character. Can we keep him?

The USL men's seasons are nigh, so I figured I'd circulate this again. I've got a couple of tools to try to help us connect with each other in the community! (Please share!) The first is a USL feed, you can *SUBSCRIBE* to it and *pin it* on top of the app. It catches a lot of USL chatter. (1/4)

I’m begging you: stop buying gimmicky cookware. Hexclad, and all their knockoffs, are worse in every meaningful way to a stainless steel or nonstick. Go to your local restaurant supply store, look for stainless, heavy bottomed pots and pans. Sauce pan, stockpot, skillet and sautee.

The Year’s first meeting of the Indianapolis Shadow Board starts at 2:30 AM next Sunday morning in the Union Jack parking lot.

My favorite thing about Crusader Kings 3 is how it never crashes on startup and launches perfectly like every other game I have. (It does not.)

Spotted this Schlitz tied house yesterday for the first time at Damen/Grand.

we need to start putting a tax on the word “chaos”.

When I started doing these annual stops in England to catch the Palace, I never imagined I'd attend a game where two Americans start for the club and then see my birth state -- using Vashon Jordan's photo of Chicago that's on my desktop -- pop up on the scoreboard as a club partner.

Sergey, I recommend cement shoes.

Michael Oliver had to be called over to the VAR monitor to be told he'd missed a goalkeeper studding a striker in the face. Our "best" ref 🙄

Millwall - shit club, shit fans, shit team.

Millwall scum. World would be better off if the club folded.

Oh and Ramadan Mubarak y'all ❤️

I would love ONE (1) year of prosperity. My generation entered the workforce in the middle of a recession and it’s just never gotten better? It’s been inept (or downright evil) politicians and batshit price gouging since I’ve been an adult. Just some comfort, man. I’m fucking tired.

The last time I played a guitar in anger I was wearing pants I bought from CCS. Maybe it’s been a couple years.

I have a LOT of potatoes. More than I can use before they get gross. Any recipes with potatoes as the superstar that freeze and reheat well? Soups are fine, but not preferred in this single, very specific case.

Window open all day? Loamy, rainy smells coming in? A little humidity in my nose? Are those some little bird calls? What a nice day.

I remember heading out to Kuntz Stadium for Indy Blast games in the early 2000s, at that time wishing Indianapolis had or could get an MLS team. I left Indy in 2007, but through visits back and staying in touch with friends I know it has a much greater soccer culture now than MLS could ever provide

The situation down here is wild and changes constantly. A number of things in Indy remain true: Ersal is a nearly irredeemable character. Stremlaw has been wildly in over his head from day one. MLS will not shift a meaningful part of the Euro Soccer Saturday Morning crowd into a stadium.

Deep into my yearly “apply for every batshit job you can think of” so if anyone who has worked on or with the folks at McMurdo Station, hmu.

Applying for a grant to start a label in Japan. Hope you like neo-swing.

The Fire signed Omar Gonzalez? Incredible pickup.

"If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing." Malcolm X, who was assassinated but not silenced, 60 years ago yesterday.

10 more Will Hughes and the starting lineup will be perfect.

I don’t understand how ALDI isn’t the only supermarket left.

The algorithms have been showing me this all week: 1. Ground B Rally Videos 2. Renee Rapp edits SO CLOSE

AOC is showing what resistance looks like; Schumer, Hochul, and the rest of D leadership not so much. www.publicnotice.co/p/aoc-homan-...

You cannot “save the American tax payers” ANY money. Taxes aren’t going down, so you’re just cutting services and pocketing the rest for your pals. I’d happily hand over half my pay if it meant we actually GOT shit for it.

new glasses/new shirt/new coat day. triple threat. ALDI ain’t ready.

The Great Khan will not suffer the Gulf of Mexico to be renamed by the pretender, so here's our compromise:

I think it bears repeating that true deal Eric Adams cut to sell out our city to Trump to save his own ass is so egregious that prosecutors who clerked for Antonin Scalia and John Roberts resigned in protest. This isn’t just progressive rage. Anyway. Gov Hochul. Remove Eric Adams.

It really pisses me off that cleaning my place, going for a workout and cooking something nice for myself really DOES make me feel better. BUT! does it make me feel better than rotting away on my couch and watching a ding dong speed run Pokémon snap? Sadly, yes.
