With all of the increasingly insane shit happening in the world it's refreshing to see that we can still see very normal human problems, such as Kelly Clarkson publicly arguing with a toy store over whether or not she can buy their bird toy for $15,000.

Hoooooo boy what a shit sports weekend. At least I had the one bright spot of Michigan losing, thanks Gophs.

The Wings are so bad that fans of other teams on Reddit aren't even making fun of us. They're just talking about how sad it is and how bad they feel for us. Yeesh. I wasn't alive for the Dead Wings era, is this what it was like (minus social media)?

The annual box elder bug invasion exploded overnight, and they all love my front door.

I'd obviously like to get excited about this news about the Man City charges but I don't trust they'll ever see any substantial punishment. Would love to be wrong!! Would really, really love to be wrong.

Why is Ohio State losing a helmet so often?

I am BEGGING everyone to stop using AI to write formal letters on subjects they don't understand. I see these things in my role and the AI has no idea what it's talking about half the time. If it's quoting a law/regulation/statute that you aren't personally familiar with, don't send that letter.

Not only that, every single one of these is so fucking overwritten. 10 paragraphs of slop is not getting you where you think it is with a company, I promise. I would so much rather two poorly written sentences that actually get to the point than paragraphs of "well written" trash.

Oh holy shit this is the funniest possible outcome. Yes Mike, fight it, take it all the way to the Supreme Court! It's clear the Minnesota Republican party is corrupt and only you can stop them lmao, don't give up.

i burst out laughing

I honestly expected Angie Craig to do a little better, fucking lmao that's what you get for selling your state out to the fascists. Anyway, excited for Peggy and can't wait for Klobs to appoint Angie to her old seat 🙃.

Also extreme lmao that the pillow idiot wasn't even close. Republicans should be thankful, I'm not exactly excited to vote for Klobuchar but she'd have wiped the floor with Lindell.

Oh and speaking of floor wiping, good to see Royce White can disappear into irrelevance again until his next failed campaign.

The Royce White transgender bit is starting to have notes of the South Park undercover cop working as a female sex worker bit and I won't be too surprised if we get Royce in a dress by the end of the year. To own the libs, of course, and for no other reason whatsoever.

Anyway, regardless of why he's enjoying this so much, he is a despicable person who has a restraining order against him for allegations of domestic abuse and also somehow managed to have a political career even more flaccid than his NBA one. He's like a G League bench player in MAGA at best.

El-Sayed won by a lot less than the polls were showing, yeah, but if you showed me dollars spent for each candidate alone I'd have told you El-Sayed would have no chance. That said, reminder number one trillion that polls mean fuck-all nowadays and nothing is real until it's done and certified.

2026 is a horrible year but do you ever stop to think how insanely cool it is to have multiple women's soccer leagues around the world that are thriving, women's basketball in its most successful commercial era so far, women's pro baseball, a women's hockey league that finally feels stable, etc.

These are things I dreamed of as a kid. WUSA meant so much to me it was part of my AIM screenname at and it just died. We had a women's soccer team named after fucking magicJack, that's how dire things were. Now I have season tickets to a PRE-PRO team that sells out a 5k capacity stadium.

I really want to buy WPBL merch but I hate all teams from Boston, New York, LA and San Fran, and I've never been a league merch person. If I had to pick one of these teams I'm going Boston I guess.

The home Boston jersey is outstanding. The Boston branding in general is fantastic.

I am reluctantly buying league merch until the Boston jersey is back in stock, I will throw money at this league one way or another.

Want to know how old you are? I just heard a child ask what COVID is. We're that many years past the pandemic lmao.

I didn't have an opinion on Kevin Warsh's public speaking skills prior to today but this guy is excruciating to listen to. I almost think I'd rather listen to RFK talk.

29 July

He's like a cross between a sitcom newscaster and a sitcom politician but it's the worst aspects of both thrown into a blender with Newt Gingrich's voice if it was de-aged by AI.

27 July

"Listen guys, I know the first still image of Mitchy boy looking like he doesn't know what century it is wasn't convincing. But what if we released a second still image of him also looking like he doesn't know what century it is?"

25 July

@flavorflav.bsky.social Flav, I just want you to know that the Minnesota Vixen just won their first Women's Football Alliance championship and we are SO proud of them, hoping they can be part of your women's sports celebrations next time you do it. THANK YOU for all you do for women's sports.

23 July

Kane is gone, I can enjoy being a Red Wings fan again. I feel like I just stepped outside to fresh air. I don't care that they aren't great anymore, I care that they were employing such a vile human being.

19 July

Someday maybe we'll have a politician that pushes to make it illegal for ISPs to price purely on vibes. In the process of getting put on a "new plan" which is "exactly the same as my old plan" but $20 cheaper because my old plan was "grandfathered" and more expensive. No, none of that makes sense

19 July

And yes, I'm well aware if I'd continued to complain and threatened to cancel my service they'd have found an even newer plan that was exactly the same but another $30-$50 cheaper. I know. I'm tired and I just don't care to play this game anymore.

19 July

I also probably could have messed with the customer service AI chatbot...I mean, Rebecca from New York, and gotten a further discount but again. I just don't want to play this stupid game anymore.

12 July

My brain picked a wonderful moment to wake me up and compel me to check my phone lol.

21 June

Confused how the reflecting pool was vandalized considering he made DC one of the safest cities in america 🤔🤔🤔

14 June

Very happy for KAT, and it's neat for New York. Oh and at least it wasn't OKC. That's about as strong of feelings as I can muster for the NBA when the Pistons aren't involved (or, honestly, even when they are most of the time).

My current favorite genre of video is humans reenacting videos of robots failing to act human, I have no idea why it kills me but it does.

29 May

There is absolutely no fucking shot Angie Craig is running an ad saying she held ICE accountable and stood up to Trump. I know up is down and blatant lies are highly encouraged in politics now but what are we doing.

24 May

Oh well. Impossible to be too mad about what would have been icing on the wonderful (stressful, overwhelming) cake this season has been.

24 May

Everton, you absolute losers.

22 May

@fightnightatjoe.bsky.social I need a Liverpool fan's opinion on the Salah situation. Do you want him playing the final game as a goodbye or is the relationship too broken (or you want to win and he's just not the best choice for that)? From the outside looking in, I'm on his side over Slot's.

21 May

STOP. CHANGING. ICONS. PICK ONE ICON FOREVER AND LEAVE IT. I should be able to recognize every tab on my browser without having to dedicate any conscious brainpower to the effort.

19 May

Holy shit we are the champions. I don't even know what to do.

16 May

Arsenal should be embarrassed that they had to depend on the traveling support to give Katie McCabe a proper sendoff. I'm just so disgusted. I'm write-an-email-to-the-team-that-no-one-will-read levels of disgusted.

Obviously I have no idea what went down behind the scenes. But the more Arsenal post about her, the more disgusted I am by how Katie McCabe leaving was handled. Why didn't efforts to keep her start much sooner? She played SO MUCH this year, it's not like she was riding the bench as an extra.

View full thread

"Here, throw out a couple Instagram posts about how much we love her, that'll do it!" WTF are we doing here, Arsenal. This has just left such a bad taste. Again, maybe something totally different went on/is going on behind the scenes but publicly the optics are awful.

The video the club put out on Instagram a few minutes ago with Renee and Kim sure makes it seem like Katie got shafted. Idk man. It just sucks all around, really unhappy with my club right now.

She's a legend still playing at a level that has her in almost every minute of almost every game, why are we letting her leave on a free? And why didn't she get an actual sendoff? I don't care if contract talks went too late for a goodbye, they should have started much sooner to avoid that entirely.

14 May

This one really, really hurts, even though we all sort of knew it was coming. She was my favorite player and it's not going to feel the same watching this team with her gone. The signings this summer better be absolute blockbusters.

Tim Stillman ⭐️⭐️@tim-stillman.bsky.social

Arsenal confirm that Katie McCabe will leave the club this summer when her contract expires. Understand McCabe was offered a deal which was still under discussion recently, which is why the announcement couldn’t be made ahead of the Everton game 👇🏻🔴⚪️🇮🇪

14 May

Hockey's been a rough watch the last few years for us Wings fans but at least I get to smile once a year when the Wild get eliminated after getting all their fans' hopes up again.

13 May

How do we keep Manu employed at Arsenal forever after she retires? Just watching the player goodbyes and why do sports have to be this way? And then as soon as I stop crying for Manu here comes Beth and I'm crying again.

10 May

I'm saying this as an Arsenal fan but this goes for all sports fans of all teams: why is everyone so bothered if other teams' fans think their win/record/championship is legit or not? Who cares if other fans think the VAR decision today was correct or not? It's what happened. The result is final.

10 May

It's totally fun to shit on other teams, I get it. But if *your* team is the one being shit on after a win? Don't take the bait. You don't get extra points on the scoreboard for convincing other fans to like your team. Fuck it, tell me the 2002 Red Wings bought their Cup, IDGAF. Scoreboard, baby.
