Sometimes you just gotta let people know.

This is how I know those folks have never had in real life beef. Because the idea of doing this, without ever considering that it might result in getting run up on, is outside my realm of comprehension.

LeBron is the funniest person in the world. It’s literally LeBron and Dr Umar at #1 and #2 idc idc idc

Nobody who had a crush on Ashley Banks from the first time we saw her has had a moment's regret in 35 years.

Tommy very much regrets asking the question.

I just heard KRS-One being played at a game between Baylor and TCU. This is how I learn it's possible for me to still be surprised.

Full update from our team. We STILL do not have admin access to the account.

My teenage children, who have never set foot in NYC, go around saying "Help me, Mamdani!" whenever anything goes wrong and/or they can't figure out their homework, just to give everybody a sense of the scale of this man's presence in the culture lol

yeah that one will put you off solid food for a day or two, Hoosiers

Jesus

Oh my god

🚨 NAKIA SPORTS POST 🚨

Win or lose I think we can agree Sark sucks at this

I can't tell how much of Texas' offensive issues are because of Arch Manning vs Sarkisian's playcalling.

DJT surrounds himself with a Dora Peroxide. The name might need work.

None of my degrees came from schools that anyone would consider left of center. And yet. People who make these kinds of arguments really insult the ability of young people to think for themselves.

Arch is going to have to come back for another freaking year at Texas and I'm not sure the media ecosystem can bear it.

Trump supporters get angry when they're told "I hope you get what you voted for" and that really gives away the game.

People have a really hard time with this but it does need to be talked about. When we let capitalists control the production of technology, the value/"free time" created is always, always going to be stolen back by the system.

Email did to white collar work what the washing machine did to housework: creating as many problems as it solved. See, as Ruth Schwartz Cowan shows in More Work for Mother, washing machines made washing clothes much easier, but in the process, it also shifted cultural norms...

🎶WHAT WILL PEOPLE THINK WHEN THEY HEAR THAT I'M A TALAFREAK WHAT WILL PEOPLE DO WHEN THEY FIND THAT IT'S TRUE🎶

Of all states, Minnesota being the one that might buck the trend is completely perplexing. This article also seems to suggest that some Minnesotans aren't happy with Tim Walz? When and how did that happen?

This is not beautiful to see. This is the most racist democracy on planet earth, and people just expect Black people to sing negro spirituals and "overcome." It's not working. This still happens for one reason and one reason only: white US folk don't hold each other accountable for this racism.

I always have mixed feelings about these images. Yes, it's inspiring to see these college students committed to democracy, but the fact that they have to do anything remotely difficult to exercise their voting rights is enraging. Taking part in a democracy should be as easy as possible.

Imagine getting rid of the DEI’s Only to discover the bigots can’t read

College football fans: this is our time to shine.

it's weird how cagey the write-ups so far have been about who shot the shooter

A little while ago I wrote something in a sports forum and someone accused me of using AI. This wasn't anything important so it wasn't a big deal. But I was still annoyed by the accusation. I can only imagine how infuriating it is to have it happen with something you've labored on for years.

“I’m not going to work for a gambling company and have blood on my hands.” -- Nicole Noren, 24-year ESPN veteran and winner of Emmy, Murrow, and Peabody awards. Her grandfather, father and one of my brothers "were pretty much destroyed by sports gambling addiction." www.cjr.org/the-intervie...

Does anyone else's text inbox look like this right now?

"These things I constantly do may one day lead to a lot of people wanting to prosecute me. Maybe I should stop doing those things. No, no...it's the liberals that are the problem."

And in case this never makes it into a full fledged piece: the reason isn’t simple dehumanization but the articulation of a foe, a need to see us humiliated and destroyed, because we dared, despite the violence, to shine, to insist on our right to be here, to show what this country could be.

I need someone to give me room to write about this moment in anti Muslim hate because there’s a reason Nidal Hassan is who is being killed by live firing squad. And it’s the same reason Ilhans house was raided.

When I was in grad school, multiple professors would praise me for my writing ability. During one meeting, a professor asked me how I learned to write so well. I told him that I listened to a lot of hip hop.
