To their credit. Need to praise the good as well as bemoan the bad.

“nazis only control about 1/5th of the federal government” is honestly a pretty good showing for the germans in the global context

I got a 1400 on my SATs and they told me I wasn’t shift supervisor material when I worked at Starbucks.

There's going to be news about a woman illegally detained and being forcely removed from a Coeur d'Alene Idaho Town Hall meeting taking place at the high school by men that would not identify themselves wearing plain clothes because she opposed the republican viewpoints. youtube.com/shorts/hhJdH...

we’ve got like another three weeks left of this Elon-DOGE chapter before they toss him to the wolves

I can’t fully embrace this app until I can cyberbully the guy who runs the Blooper account on here.

The “Great Man” theory of history is obviously discredited and ignored but I kind of believe in the inverse theory that historical progress sort of just treads water until someone too incompetent to manage the contradictions finally ends up in charge (Louis XVI, Nicholas II, etc)

“Like how can you be a remotely competent historian without insisting upon a Great Man interpretation that actual historians rejected ages ago?”

Guy who doesn’t even respond to the mothers of his children: reply to my email or you’re fired

this is going to be the year Philly shows Dallas how you’re supposed to celebrate a Kennedy in a November parade

was max kepler the missing piece? my column:

as your designated catholic follow, I can tell you that popes only do this when they’re in distress

Phillies baseball is back, you should follow my friends

choose joy today

spring training baseball is the funniest possible version of any sport. what do you mean “designated hitter, johan rojas”?

everyone deservedly talks about how badly they fucked up ‘big yellow taxi’ but it’s worth remembering that counting crows also did a cover of ‘friend of the devil’ that was complete dogshit.

looking at the “send message” box on my friends instagram stories after my fourth drink

I wish they never took the lead out of gasoline. Everyone who got their brains cooked by that shit seems so much happier than me.

this is honestly one of the most insane things I think any NBA team has done. imagine trying to recruit a guy to sign with your team when this is how you treat a guy who dragged you to the Finals less than a calendar year ago?

I liked the Yankees facial hair policy because I think anyone who plays for the Yankees should look like a dork.

Our home and native land, baby

how long do I have to wait for everyone to catch up on the new severance episode before I can start making polycule jokes?

not only am I rooting for team canada, but I’m judging you if you’re not

I’d like to take this plea a bit further but maybe I’m an idealist.

New: DOGE's spending has been secret. No longer. My colleagues have uncovered it. www.propublica.org/article/doge...

live baseball back on the radio.

The “run it like a start up” grift is a more extreme version of the “run it like a business” trend for infrastructure. We had decades of people trying to run things like businesses they never should have—public goods, like schools, universities, and hospitals. That, plus technophilia, got us here.

congratulations to the first elected dem to realize that if you get arrested for criticizing elon musk you immediately become the face of the party and front runner for 2028.

So if you criticize Elon Musk, Trump’s DOJ will send you this letter. Members of Congress must have the right to forcefully oppose the Trump Administration. I will not be silenced.

ted lasso was a fun little show that immediately collapsed under the weight of its own popularity after season one. Apple TV having it as their flagship series was embarrassing, I can respect them more as a streaming service now.
