I am having enormous infuriating internet issues so I just want to say that I see all of your “we ran a successful screen” jokes and I love all of you very much. GOODBYE KIDS, I CAN’T COME BACK I DUNNO HOW IT WORKS

Sure, they could have moved the finals game to the evening, but then an entire crowd of kids would have been stuck in school Thursday afternoon when they could have been watching James Harden mentally go over the menu at Magic City while pretending to play defense.

A fun game this season will be trying to figure out *which* Sixer the crowd is chanting "M-V-P!" for.

It’s my tenth anniversary at work today, which ironically (appropriately?) enough for this weird, exhausting job, falls on a random-ass Saturday off — wedged firmly between two twelve hour shifts. At least I got to take Tilly to the park today.

In the sense that they’re both wonderful but often over complicated and tedious, or in the sense that they’re both frequently cited by ignorant people when they want to seem smarter than they are?

grok what would a smart guy say

You don't want to know what kind of monstrous chicanery Roger Goodell will get up to in order to get an extra half-point of share on a largely meaningless 9:30am game in mid-October.

The most likely scenario is that many people were just unprepared for this particular set of circumstances and in hindsight would do things much differently, but sure, let's say it was some conspiracy.

My excuse for not looking like Hemsworth is that I've seen what the last 10-20 years of life look like for guys who've used HGH and steroids to get super ripped like that, and frankly it looks like it sucks a lot more than dragging my old ass out to the trail to run every once in a while does.

I'm not saying to accept this at face value or agree with the decisions that were made, but maybe ratcheting down a notch from "string up Lurie, Howie and the coaching staff upside-down outside a gas station like Mussolini" is appropriate?

I trust Jonathan Jones' reporting. Tom Pelissero fucked up big time.

Quite a stunning surprise to discover that Philadelphia's least favorite education scumbag Jeff Yass is a principal donor to the PAC running this ad.

Travis Hunter is first player with a TD catch and INT in same game since Brian Dawkins did it vs Texans on 9/29/2002

Jan is CBS’s legal correspondent. She gave the puff piece interview to Alito on his book. She’s criticized people who criticize the Court too much / in certain ways. She’s a perfect case study in why some mainstream/legacy media press coverage of SCOTUS is broken, bad, and misleading.

This is a really striking tweet.

Jokes aside, I love the move. It screams "there's not going to be baseball in 2027 anyway, so why bother trying?" I'm planning on building and wiring an electric guitar in my spare time next summer - what are you all doing?

I really hope John Swartzwelder is a real person and somehow will get some royalty $ for the amount of use we're all going to get out of clipping and memeing Homer at the Bat for another season.

U.S. Ambassador to Greece Kimberly Guilfoyle is under investigation by the State Department’s Office of the Inspector General. The probe comes as a longtime Trump donor accused Guilfoyle of asking him to pay her outstanding $100K Amex bill in exchange for access to senior administration officials.

To be fair, if I remember the commercials for Skor from my childhood accurately the general tone of them was, "CHOCOLATE COVERED TOFFEE IS THE DESSERT OF PEOPLE WHO FUCK"

Discontinued FoOoOods! 👻🎃@discontinuedfoods.bsky.social

Fun fact: as a kid, I genuinely believed that Skor and Symphony bars were made for adults, and I would either get in trouble or be scoffed at if I asked for either of them in the grocery store check out line

I started saying "plant-based" instead of "vegan-ish" because a) it was more accurate (I like honey and am sometimes too lazy to check labels) and b) I got tired of arguing with people about the imaginary "PETA member vegan" they keep in their head to get mad at every time somebody says the word.

Just saw an ad for “plant based pancakes.” Apparently there’s a lot about pancakes i don’t know

One of the real joys of teaching at the University where you did your UG degree is that every once in a while you get an email from the University announcing that they're finally retiring the math software (Maple) they tried and failed to teach you how to use 34 years ago.
