The scene in the dining car on the train is all-time classic.

Were they referred to police and subject to charges, investigation, arrest, and trial? Then yes, the consequences were minimal.

@jrradcliffe.bsky.social I don’t know what a Colton Gordon is but so far I approve.

@jrradcliffe.bsky.social I have yet to see an MLB team challenge a first baseman for pulling their foot off the bag a moment too early, but Pete Alonso is REALLY close.

@jrradcliffe.bsky.social Is it crazy to suggest that our #3 starter in the playoffs might be Chad Patrick?

@jrradcliffe.bsky.social Cubs catcher never misses on an ABS challenge. Never.

Is Brice back?

i think the party of sick freaks who want to inspect kid's private parts should be branded as such

The semifinal is about to get all CONCACAFfy

Do you thing we can get every game in this series to be 4-3? @jrradcliffe.bsky.social

This is a brilliant joke with a very small, appreciative audience.

The frantic rush to ban trans women from playing sports has never been motivated by a genuine interest in women’s sports or improving anybody’s lives. The fact that it’s clearly going to hurt cis women in addition to trans women is an added bonus for the people who have pushed for it

This country was one person's vote away this morning from putting any birthright citizen in danger of being deported tomorrow. We are so much closer to the abyss than we think. Man oh man.

@jrradcliffe.bsky.social I don’t get the thinking behind batting Yelich leadoff, when Chourio is so well suited for it. At this point in his career Yelich really should be a 5,6,7 hitter.

Washington Nat'l Opera sues the Kennedy Center alleging that the Center STOLE the opera's endowment. WNO had a longterm agreement where KC ran the opera's development back office, and in 2025 KC just ... stopped doing it and seized the funds. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

I saw the #4 on the @milwaukeebrewers.bsky.social jerseys and for a moment I was scared Paul Molitor had died.

If Hamilton keeps hitting either Ortiz or Rengifo are going to be expendable. @milwaukeebrewers.bsky.social

Once again: German universities were the envy of the world before the Nazis rose to power and took an ideological wrecking ball to the entire enterprise. If you want to know how long it took for German universities to recover… they haven’t.

@jrradcliffe.bsky.social Weird question but is Uribe chewing a big wad of tobacco new this season? I don’t recall that last year. Or is it just a bigger wad? Either way, gross.

I think we should try anyway.

Once it's available, we should absolutely overload this system with millions of applications. Make it impossible to sort through.

It's an understudied element of our media environment that Republicans can insult Democrats in any way they see fit, regardless of propriety or truth value, without repercussion, but Dems are consistently forced to use measured tones to describe Republicans no matter how outrageous their actions.

This is your periodic reminder that Democrats introduced legislation in 2021 to ban gerrymandering nationwide and every republican voted against it except two who were absent.

Feels like the word “mastermind” is doing too much lifting here.

Mamdani: When I ran for mayor, I said I was going to tax the rich 
Well, today we're taxing the rich...

Show up for every election. Every time. That’s really the whole secret.

I can’t imagine being in his proximity and voluntarily moving closer to him.

Even a shit like Orban has the courage to call his opponent and concede. Trump would never consider such a thing.

TACO I mean I’m glad he chickened out for everyone’s sake, but he was always going to back down. (Although he’s unstable enough to cause genuine alarm.) Regardless he still needs to be impeached and the faster, the better.

This NASA flickr page is very good

23 people could stop this genocidal war criminal. That’s it. 23. 20 Republican senators and 3 republican reps in the house and he’d be out of politics forever. But they won’t. They’re addicted to power. A drug so strong they’d rather see a civilization die than give it up.

Impeach him today.

same Overton Window-shattering tactic he’s always used: Even if worst doesn’t happen tonight - rhetorically he’s opened up possibility of the unimaginable, making lesser (but still horrible) actions seem moderate by comparison… all increasing likelihood that one day the worst really will happen

@jrradcliffe.bsky.social Are the @milwaukeebrewers.bsky.social ever going to play a National League team? This is really strange starting the season with interleague play in 5 of the first 6 series.

Trivial hill that I will die on… When setting up a buffet line the utensils and napkins should be LAST. I don’t need to carry all that while I’m trying to load a plate. And I don’t even know if I need a spoon until I’m done.

Sure seems like in this administration you can be a despicable, awful person who is bad at their job, and you’ll be fine. But if you’re also a woman that’s the step one too far.

Counterpoint: Yes, we can.

“Everything is in the table” has become GOP-speak for “We don’t know what this psycho is going to do next”

I also was watching "The Americans" this morning.

CB Bucknor just did another CB Bucknor. #Brewers

Seems appropriate to do this on April Fool’s Day.

The truth of it.

I don't know who did this, but I can vouch that they were with me the entire day.

You don’t see Yelich pimp out a home run very often, but he sure did on this one. #ThisIsMyCrew

Sometimes you just get lucky. Long planned trip to Prague to visit Josie while she studies abroad. I never connected until yesterday that this was the site of tonight’s World Cup playoff semifinal between Czech Republic 🇨🇿 and Ireland 🇮🇪.
