Trying to buy watch party tickets from Brewers and it's just a doom loop of website authentication, WTF. Also, has there been a more convolution UI for ticket buying software? Manually un/selecting every section to check for seats. Never though I'd say Ticketmaster is better

Hey, question - why is #media drafting headlines about political polling then quoting Kalshi and Polymarket betting lines?

Did you know? Just five companies control 90% of the media industry. Nine of America’s 10 richest men are media executives and owners. That’s no accident. 👇

More than 100,000 Ukrainians and roughly 2,000 Sudanese immigrants are bracing for the possibility they’ll lose their humanitarian protections by Monday. Pennsylvania has the second-largest population of Ukrainians and Ukrainian Americans in the country. From @statesnewsroom.com

We made a gaaaaaaame:

I had two screenshots I wanted combined into one image but was feeling too lazy to open Photoshop and do it myself. So I asked CoPilot to do it. It took 20 minutes of prompting and correcting the AI over and over for it to correctly order the two images, top and bottom, into one.

Font choice is so, so important

Good news from the Badlands! Today, October 6, Thunder Valley Community Development Corporation, a Lakota nonprofit based on the Pine Ridge Reservation, plans to return 50 bison to nearly 40,000 acres in the Stronghold area of Badlands National Park.

Oh man I missed my one moment to shine! The one skill I have in this world thanks to Mr. Hartman's Driver's Ed course.

We celebrate 50 years of a cultural phenomenon unique to Washington, D.C.: go-go music! Look for Tiny Desk Radio on your local NPR station. n.pr/3V2PFbN

You know, this is nice to see, after all the species named after Beyonce or whatever

I love seeing your kids’ first day of school pics! All of them are beautiful! But saying this with my cybersecurity professional hat on: you probably shouldn’t be posting pictures of your kids. I’m sorry :(

We’re the mayors of Paris, Milan and Phoenix. The heat crisis has us all facing the same question | Emmanuel Grégoire, Giuseppe Sala and Kate Gallego

Love seeing this local gem highlighted in Rolling Stone!

It’s been 150 years since the Battle of the Little Bighorn, one of the most famous and enduring events in U.S history. While Native Americans were victorious, the battle reshaped the government’s policy toward Indigenous people and still resonates so deeply for many today. https://to.pbs.org/4wND62e

I truly and quite sincerely am not ready to live in a world without Dolly. people.com/dolly-parton...

There are nearly 2.5M truck driving jobs in the US, more if you count all vehicle classes. One of the few careers that requires very little expensive, formal education or training. Driverless tech was never coming for our personal vehicles, just your jobs.

ITT: humans could just, like, talk to each other maybe?

Oh, this is just devastating. www.yahoo.com/news/world/a...

I want people to understand the full impact of the devastation that First Nations in Canada are facing. It's NOT just that people and wildlife are losing their homes...it's the history that is being lost for generations to come.

Why do Dr's offices ask what kind of appointment you want to schedule? How would I know the categories you keep? Do you have a menu I could choose from? I'd be more than happy to book through Toast or whatever.

Unfortunately I find this endlessly fascinating (via @404media.co). www.404media.co/how-i-bought...

Sara Bareilles and Brandi Carlisle co-wrote a song for the documentary, ‘Come See Me in the Good Light’ with words by late poet Andrea Gibson. “[Brandi’s] like a big electric neon yes… so unabashedly supportive of who she loves.” Interview: www.rollingstone.com/music/music-...

My favorite genre of social media content right now is "international sportsball fan discovers fellow sportsfan's country." World Cup has been fantastic. NFL's "football" exchange last Fall was phenomenal. Just, good stuff showing our commonalities and humanity, excitement and wonder. 10/10

One of the wildest #USWNT games I've ever watched. The announcers absolutely made it. I know we're all focused on men's World Cup right now, but this game last night made me want to immediately buy tickets to 2027 Women's in Brazil. It's gonna be good. www.yahoo.com/sports/artic...

Many people have a vested interest in pretending otherwise, but the US research university is globally dominant to an almost unbelievable degree. The typical state university is a football team stapled to a R&D lab with a budget bigger than the entire nation of Belgium.

This is incredible. Former colleague created an app where you can see what your taxes paid for...AND your share of what the government borrowed as debt in that same calendar year.

#EarthDay is always a reminder that I interviewed its founder, Gaylord Nelson, at a gathering for local Democratic candidates in the Eau Claire area on a weekend morning in October 1978. He was most gracious with a young, inexperienced reporter. We could use more public servants like Gaylord Nelson.

This saga has been so infuriating. The city would rather have one person store their personal property in public space than see dozens of customers able to hang out, build community, and spend money at local businesses and restaurants.

Don't know what I was expecting when I got a protein latte at Starbucks today, but it certainly wasn't something that can only be described as "chunky" and "chewable."

Just so you understand, this is as if you prepared for argument in front of a panel that included Cookie Monster, and Cookie Monster asked you a question about cookies, and you had not thought about cookies in advance.

I don't want to be part of the story, just know that YES I've been waiting for this to be investigated. PB Cups suck now. I'm glad the secret is out. I haven't eaten chocolate in over a year. I am 100% still addicted to Life Saver Sour Gummies though.

Here's your moment of zen: A "holy" cat named Coco stands at the entrance of a church in Mexico, seemingly blessing everyone who walks in 🐱

Happy March 15. Here is my favorite Ides of March meme:

Oh man, we knew this was coming after Art passed, but there was a time...

So glad the city just got finished ripping out all of the outdoor streateries now that it's sunny and 80.

Equivalent to a 20yo today knowing who Elvis is, would be me in the early aughts knowing who The Drifters, Dean Martin or Perry Como was, which I did. I think a lot about how we knew what came before, and without the benefit of the internet at our fingertips. What changed?
