i am inviting anyone from a legacy media organization to explain to me why the house judiciary dems report on trump’s epstein’s ties and multiple allegations of rape isn’t worthy of extensively reporting on. i’m serious. i want to understand.

Eight years since we dreamed it up, 2 1/2 since we recorded our pilot. Sometimes a passion project takes seemingly forever, but comes along exactly when you need it. Today is the day, folks. Available wherever you get your podcasts. It is midnight in America, and you are listening to Midnight Radio.

Finished @chriskempshall.bsky.social's "Star Wars: Star Pilots" today and absolutely loved it. Tore through the book. Loved the format of the book and the numerous pilot interviews. Loved that he brought back some Legends characters, specifically the book's in-universe editor. Truly a delight.

Great book for fans of the old-school X-Wing games, books, & comics. Lots to dig into, pulling from post-Civil War US, post-WWI Europe, & current politics to explain state of the Galaxy Far, Far Away post-ROTJ. Wish the book was twice as long. Still salty Hobbie died at Hoth in the new canon.

Bears mostly dominated the Falcons. 4th quarter ATL came alive, but we held on. Tyler Fordon w/ 3 huge sacks, including a fumble to halt the Q4 comeback. Lots of ugly penalties by Bears though. Still playing sloppy. Could have been a much bigger W. Glad CW is back. #Iceman #BearDown

Meta took down the No Kings instagram; TikTok banned the Musk documentary account for supposedly violating its political posting policies. A reminder that platforms are owned by the wealthiest of people, control the means of media distribution, & put their thumbs on the democracy scale as they wish

Democrats need to be ready to hold hearings and inquiries into the assault that Musk, Zuckerberg and other tech bros are making against democratic institutions at home and abroad.

First (of many?) Kaner to Bedsy goals! #Showtime #Blackhawks

Scott Powers@scottpowers.bsky.social

Kane feeds Bedard in the high slot on 5v3 and Bedard buries his first goal of the season.

Also important to note: Papa Ellison’s Oracle, which co-owns this, is one step above junk bond status. If the market sneezes wrong this whole house of cards crashes to the ground.

It's not "amid intensifying competition for user attention." it's to boost the stock price. It's always to boost the stock price. Billionaires can choose to not make more money; they just don't

Bedard back on the ice for the Blackhawks tonight. First time with the "C", and first time with Kaner. Time to start turning things around. Wheel, snipe, celly ferda boys.

JD Vance running around the country saying he’s fighting health care fraud while his nominee for the senate in TX who he completely supports is partying in Dubai with a guy whole stole over $300 million in health care fraud and gave Paxton $190,000. This is the Republican Party.

If you need a pickmeup, Ukraine struck and destroyed a Russian data center last night, reducing Russian bot traffic by 50%, dropping online pro-AfD discussion to zero, cratering MAGA traffic, and making Elon big mad. Just in time for the mid-terms. Slava fucking Ukraini.

"You finished watching Letterkenny the other day..." Really loved this show and kind of embarrassed it took me so long to get around to watching it. Rapid-fire punning in every episode, with some emotional beats that caught me off-guard and really hit home. But fun more than anything else.

Overall, I think I like Shoresy more. It has more heart at its core. It's a sports show about an aging hockey player ultimately coming to terms with how the sport defines who he his. Letterkenny has the laughs and character investment over time, but Shoresy is trying to say more, IMO.

Have found it really hard over the last few weeks not to let all their phrases and jokes take over my own vernacular. Squirrelly Dan adding superfluous "s"s to everything is especially tempting. Allegedlies.

Credit where it's due, Williams put on a pitching clinic today. But our batting has been dogshit the last three games. Don't know if it's the yips or what, but we were not doing much. #WhiteSox

All that being said, it was a HELL of a season, and the boys made history playing as well and going as far as they did. It's a young team, and the boys will only get better with experience. But we need to seriously address our pitching in the off-season. Still love this team. #WhiteSox

Time for #ALDS Game 5. Let's go White Sox. I don't expect you to go all the way, but let's kick Cleveland in the teeth one more time. #Southside #WhiteSox

Hard to overstate how much Hegseth's execution stream mirrors the U.S. military's traditional description of ISIS propaganda: broadcast killings designed to send a message, strike fear and create a social media spectacle. Will almost certainly be repurposed by online terror cells

104.3 The Score: An emotional Mark Grote reacts to the news that Bears legend Mike Ditka has passed away. "Mike Ditka is simply one of the most influential, important and entertaining figures that Chicago sports has ever seen," Grote says. "He is the Chicago Bears," Leila Rahimi says.

Legends never die. Forever a Hall of Famer. Forever Da Coach. But this one still hurts. Growing up, Mike Ditka was the definition of football to me. All coaches were (and are) measured against his example. Godspeed and #BearDown, Coach.

According to Jarrett Payton, legendary Bears coach Mike Ditka has passed away.

I spent a year watching school administrators do their jobs—and interviewing the students most impacted. I spoke to @thecut.com in a long-form Q&A about what I saw. Mainly, a system designed to protect perpetrators and punish victims in each and every case.

Never forget that David Ellison's Skydance Media was originally created so he could be an actor. Skydance's first film was 'Flyboys' starring James Franco and... David Ellison. David and his daddy invested $60m to make Flyboys. It grossed $17m Here's a bit of David's acting:
