Struggling to engage with the concept of “father and son Republican operatives Timmy and Tommy Teepell.” Come on man can even one thing be like 5% less stupid

I've unfollowed Peter Abraham of the Boston Globe. Tired of his pugnacious replies to everybody. Made sure not to include his handle, or I'd get one for this too. Also, Finn and others cover the Sox on Bluesky well.

This is set up for laughs, but it’s actually one of the best demonstrations I’ve seen of how being capable of producing convincing sounding language and understanding meaning are two completely different things. A chatbot does not understand you, it just has automated responses based on your words.

Our political scale has been propagandized by capitalism to make basic empathy a radical political ideology. But it's not. The entire barometer is off & a dangerous sociopathy has been the norm for way too long. That's how we got here: being conditioned not to care about others.

The thing I can't understand is how DJT learned that in April 1945 Hitler shot himself in the head to evade execution while Mussolini's dead body was hung upside down in a town square & mutilated by his own people ... & then said to himself: you know, I think fascism has a happy ending for me.

So the felonious administration's excuse is, "She said mean things to an agent; therefore, she is summarily tried, convicted, and executed in the street." Got it.

The #1 way to explain America working properly is by saying “comedians can make fun of he President on TV.” A good way to explain fascism is “the President forces companies to fire those comedians as a condition of allowing them to conduct business.”

I can understand fans, but I'm surprised by the amount of moaning by sports writers such as Chad Finn about the Devers trade. Let's put it plainly: the guy was an immature pain in the ass. Manny Ramirez without the humor. He reached his Nomar sulking moment, and we needed roster space.

And now Bill Simmons, making a Liverpool FC financial connection based on 0.0 facts. I don't like John Henry either, but come on. You don't get paid to be nothing more than fans with a platform.
