Some Lula supporters apparently shouted his name out their window when it was announced he won and a cop pointed his gun at him and they took what is possibly the greatest image of a cop ever taken, like genuinely this would go hard as a cover for a Rage album its so poetic.

RFK Jr says Sam Altman told him it's "malpractice for a doctor to make a diagnosis or to make a prescription w/o at least checking AI.” RFK Jr says AI “can give you a second opinion that is much better informed than any doctor in the country." I asked OpenAI+Anthropic if they agree; never heard back

ALL THE TAMPA BAY GUYS SHOULD BE NAMED RAY

Heather@alainnfocail.bsky.social

The Rays equipment manager’s name is Tyler Wall, so they have a Tyler Wells, Taylor Walls, and Tyler Wall running about. Incredible.

“Don’t run on a thing that people would support, but just quietly do it if you get elected” seems so tantalizing to the conflict-averse liberal mind, but I really need some proof of concept or historical examples of when this approach has ever worked.

i don't think anyone should run explicitly on banning online gambling but i do think that a democratic-led government should just quietly take steps to undermine the industry and create an inhospitable regulatory environment

I hope he doesn't show up wherever GameDay goes for the rest of eternity

Chris Vannini@chrisvannini.com

Pat McAfee says he was "uncomfortable" during Utah College GameDay and alluded to the Charlie Kirk killing. This all comes after a school video of students commenting about him upset him. Also said he might not show up if GameDay goes back there. www.nytimes.com/athletic/772...

Not only does it suck having an indoors world series with no one blowing I'm their hands or dealing with cold rain, the Trop still just doesn't feel quite MLB-level. Even whenactually full.

"arabs have contributed nothing to the arts and sciences" is such a funny fucking thing for a bog ape wearing a little suit to say

RFK: "There's five hundred million Arabs in the world. And yet they don't produce science. They don't win the Nobel Prize. They don't win the Fields Prize. They don't win the Wolf Prize. They don't produce literature."

Me: The Brewers are up in the World Series, but the Rays are at home tonight so that might help. My adorable child who loves trolling me, with a giant grin on her face: That didn't help the Yankees!

adam silver has no time to try and reschedule a regular season game with six months to spare, he's too busy getting the league in bed with every possible gambling partner he can find.

“WHY DOES EVERYONE NEED A PARTICIPATION TROPHY? IN MY DAY YOU EITHER WON OR LOST AND IT BUILT CHARACTER. Now hold on a minute while I call the police because my beautiful blonde boy is getting circles run around him on the soccer field.”

They called the cops on this 3-year-old Black boy because he was kickin the white kids' ass on the soccer field.

The weird thing about this to me is it suggests this person hasn't even cleaned their own house if they think this is a big mess.

Scott Lemieux@lemieuxlgm.bsky.social

The AirBnB people whining about the incredibly postmature rules changes are hilarious. Hey, here's an idea, if you don't want to pay someone to clean up after guests don't run a fucking lodging business!

My heart is heavy. Walter Koenig, our Ensign Pavel Chekov, passed away early today. Walter and I met on the bridge of the Enterprise in the 1960s, and we stayed friends for nearly six decades. When Brad and I married in 2008, Walter stood beside us as our best man.

imagine a politician running an antisemitic campaign, and then YOU telling the Jewish people hurt by it that “well he’s running in a conservative state, so…”

Rusty Antel@rustyantel.bsky.social

Turek is running for Senate in Iowa, a conservative leaning Republican state. And it is a very close race. You have every right to criticize his position on this issue and in a perfect world I’d join you. But let’s put that aside and help him win this race. Turek is still better than his opponent

One of my favorite bumper stickers is "do you follow Jesus this close?" and I kind of want an equivalent for making millimeter level inspections of sport by instant replay. Do you examine the morality of your actions this close?

A new survey of 1,000 American adults found that the strongest supporters of transgender sports bans are not the people who admire women most: they are the people who hold the most hostile views about women. www.helenwebberley.com/news/transge...
