I can't tell the future but I don't think Tampa Bay is going to win this World Series.

If you watch TV out loud on your phone on the subway I should legally be allowed to throw it and possibly you onto the tracks.

FOR THE LOVE OF GOD SHERROD BROWN STOP TEXTING ME

It’s funny how much Trump goes after Abdul El-Sayed bc 100% if he met him in person he’d just talk about how hot he is.

I am extremely cranky for *medical reasons* that are dovetailing with the election and am using this time to argue with literally everyone who annoys me on any online platform. Watch this space! (I’m fine)

When did the leaves change in Brooklyn? Overnight?

Sharing this because NYers who are unenthusiastic about casting a vote for Kathy Hochul need to know that the alternative, Bruce Blakeman, is a genuinely evil piece of shit. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/12/n...

Bills defense is…not good.

Seahawks should have paid Kenneth Walker his money.

Thanks to an insane surprise hospital bill, I’ve hit my (not low!) deductible and very nearly my OOP max for the year! What kinds of $$$ tests should I get for free?

I want James Talarico to win as much as the next Democrat but I’m up to 7 fundraising texts from his campaign in the last 48 hours and I’m starting to go insane.

Now up to EIGHT fundraising texts, can someone please tell his campaign to stop???

Not a uh great start for the Seahawks

semafor.comExclusive: Paramount weighs tapping Musk for equity investmentA cash injection from SpaceX billionaire Elon Musk could reduce investor Larry Ellison’s financial burden and bolster the deal’s investor base.

30 Rock should be higher up imo. Slow Horses too.

E.J. Fagan@ejfagan.com

Just a bizarre top end of the list. Parks and Rec at #50, 30 Rock as the best comedy of the 21st century at #8? Fleabag at #5? Game of Thrones at #6? Girls at #13? White Lotus at #21? Black Mirror at #26? And I loved Succession, but #4?

that's crazy because another man named David Ellison wrote this just over a month ago.

Justin Baragona@justinbaragona.bsky.social

Welp. According to Semafor, David Ellison has discussed bringing Elon Musk on as an investor in Paramount's merger with Warner Bros., which could mean Musk could have a stake in CBS News and CNN. www.semafor.com/article/09/2...

Listen, some of us don’t live in Queens because our grandparents/parents were Brooklyn Jews and they didn’t like the Queens Jews and I can’t really explain any of that reasoning further.

You will not believe it but after six-plus years I have finally finished The Americans.

I do think the Dems are going to take the House and maybe the Senate but I refuse to let a single poll get my hopes up in any way. I have been burned too many times! Someone text me on Nov 4 and let me know what happened.

I resent the news cycle for making me look at so many photos of Ed Sheeran.

Sorry but if you’re just outright watching TV out loud on your phone on the subway you should be permanently banned by the MTA.

Sean McVay’s whole thing is unsettling tbh

I genuinely think the stroke wiped out large swaths of his brain.

Adam Bonin@adambonin.bsky.social

Whatever happened to John Fetterman, between the stroke and the mental health issues he's been dealing with, this isn't "just decided that being an anti-Dem troll was more fun." This is profound, and that staff is leaking texts like these shows that they know it. www.wsj.com/politics/pol...

Not to stress anyone out but now that we’re in the RFK FDA era I think everyone should toss that Emily Oster book.

This is so incredibly terrifying to me.

Kelly@broadwaybabyto.bsky.social

The measles vaccine created herd immunity that kept infants and immunocompromised people safe. They’re relying on us to protect them, and we are failing. All the little gravestones of kids who died before the vaccine should serve as a warning. Get vaccinated. www.nbcnews.com/health/healt...

Dr. Lucky Tran@luckytran.com

The FDA just approved daraxonrasib, a breakthrough drug for advanced pancreatic cancer that doubles survival time. This is huge: pancreatic cancer was once thought untreatable. The researchers received a standing ovation when they presented the trial results, unheard of at scientific conferences.

Micah@rincewind.run

the famous line about how michael caine treated the muppets as fellow actors and tim curry treated himself as a fellow muppet keeps running through my head we have a lot of brilliant actors, but how many of them can really pull off 'unhinged muppet' the way curry could? what a tremendous loss

My sister and I can perform this entire movie from beginning to end. A perfect film. The best of the Muppets, even though I know we all hold The Muppets Take Manhattan dear.

Not going to make any public statements at this time about another 80-year-old Home Alone 2 star being *right there*
