I get they played "barracuda" because of the fish graphics for JSN, but it's fitting to have a song about toxic misogyny after Butker's FG and the call out for tackling on the kickoff.

The mic drop at the end is just....

EL-SAYED: I get that the President takes personal offense to my first name. He doesn't mind as much when it's the Saudis who are funding his son-in-law's private equity. Doesn't seem to mind as much when it's the Qataris who are giving them a $400 million private jet…

Like, just now talking with Steichen, his hairline isn’t attached to his forehead. It is blond? Is it brown? It’s it a comb forward?

That play for 0 years is why you need a back like Mason. Aaron Jones would’ve lost 2 years there. You need the brute force guy sometimes.

Yeah, this man should not be allowed to practice law, and any failure to take away his ability to practice law after all of this would be a part of the end of the rule of law in America.

Blanche on CBS says his suit against Alaska is "asking the court to step in where the Alaska Supreme Court didn't, which is to look at federal law and if necessary to allow a process for Alaska to decide who should be certified as the winner." (So, the voters won't get to decide. Got it.)

“Within a year, they would hand over the equivalent of 10% of Ingram to ICE.” This is ethnic cleansing. No other way to look at it. Everyone who enabled it, everyone who supported it, hell everyone who looked the other way should never know peace again.

I bought an auto feeder for my younger cat when I was gone this summer. I think it broke her. Anytime I come home she sits in front of it for hours. She can’t quite understand how it works. I fed her, now it feeds her so… my presence makes it go…?

We need to crush these people to restore a basic sense that moral behavior actually means anything at all. That is what is at stake here.

NEW: Vivek Ramaswamy says Amy Acton being a victim of childhood sexual abuse makes her “flawed” while defending his ad featuring her estranged mother. “In politics sometimes it's a tough sport.”

Disney's Peter Pan. I knelt on the seat and got my foot stuck between the seat and the back. I was a little kid & was crying while they brought in a flashlight to find my stuck foot. People yelled to get me out of there. Still recall seeing blood dripping from my ankle onto the bathroom floor.

First film you saw at the cinema. The real first one, not the pretend one you tell people! Mine: The Empire Strikes Back, 1980, Wigan. We were near the front and I can still remember how massive the AT-ATs looked, looming over us out of the snow :) Film, year, where, and whatever stuck with you.

With the abnormally high temperatures and the famers taking out their crops, my seasonal allergies are just brutal. I came off a cold of some sort and the sinus crap just continued. Even with otc allergy meds I can't stop producing crud. Time for a hard freeze.

One other big thing about the Rams’ special teams negligence is that those units are a really good place to train/develop future position players. So when you bail on special teams, hey presto! Your depth sucks fat ass.

Those Discmania boxes sold out in 9 minutes (unless I did my math wrong, but still a crazy fast time). I know it was only 300 boxes, but that's still serious plastic being moved fast.

🚨 “This is another play we’ve seen the Trump administration run time and again: Argue that the plaintiffs are too early to get emergency relief, while telling whatever preposterous lies will get the courts to stand down. Then send in the bulldozers and say it’s too late to undo the damage. “ 🚨

New in PN: Trump bulldozes a golf course & the rule of law "This is about whether the courts can constrain this POTUS for the next 2 years, or whether he'll be permitted to simply bulldoze the rule of law en route to bulldozing a public park & turning it into a walled garden for his own amusement."

we gotta bring back shame, man society doesn’t work real well without consequences for being an enormous piece of shit in public

Most money allocated by the government to individuals or institutions, like SNAP benefits for instance, stays in the fucking economy AND helps people AND saves money for the govt later AND produces jobs. TAX THE EVER LIVING SHIT OUT OF BILLIONAIRES AND USE THE MONEY TO MAKE LIFE IN THE US BETTER.

Most billionaire wealth isn't in yachts or jewelry — that's just a few percent of it. Most is productive business capital: companies that employ people, build things, and fund research. Tax that wealth and you're taxing the businesses that employ us all. Cato's Adam Michel explains.

I know things are just escalating as we slam into the midterms, but how can there be "politics" of any kind when one side weaponizes hate and lies with reckless abandon? All funded by the worst people with unlimited money.

I'm not a Christian, but one of the things I've always admired about Christian theology is the radical empathy of God incarnating Godself to literally feel the suffering of the human body. Apparently I admire this part of Christianity more than many American Christians do.

The Mississippi AG says police are justified for killing a baby because someone thought his mother shoplifted diapers that she paid for. The police have refused to release body cam footage. Fuck everything about this story.

Imagine what a weapons-grade piece of shit you’d have to be to pull what Ramaswamy is trying here. Truly despicable, even by the standards of the Republican Party in 2026.

Dr. Amy Acton's campaign is out with a statement:

I do not think a single elected official should be able to pick and choose who our allies are. And all the people who have the power to step up together and stop this? Fuck them all.

Just got served up a Tom Emmer ad. It claimed all these good things he's done for "regular MNs". Bitch, you haven't done any of that shit. Fuck Tom Emmer

french protests make very clear how much u.s. protests self-restrain and how bizarrely obsessed we are with the fear of being demonized by entities that are demonizing us anyway

Went to my local No Kings event. lightly attended (I thought that might happen) but I was surprised by literally no negative feedback from passersby. Only honks of approval and a few gruff looks. That’s a big change for a bright red, rural town like mine. Lots of Rs are gonna skip this election.

These latest MN republican ads are just unvarnished racism against the Somali community. Just vile and disgusting shit. Sad to say that it works for some people.

Thanks the Minnesota Educators Assoc. for the two extra days off this week. I have lots of things (leisure) I'd like to do, but it's a rainy day with only one thing on the to-do list. Perfect day to just be lazy.

Hard not to notice that Democrats who are doing the best are the ones who are leaving this whole civility-and-norms, we-go-high, we-need-a-strong-Republican-Party bullshit behind and are simply giving Republicans exactly what they all ought to get at all times, which is undisguised contempt.

this is so obviously correct it is deeply bizarre and corrosive how many people who should know better are unwilling to simply say it

Ossoff: "In my view, based upon the evidence I've seen thus far, the president's misconduct, abuse of power, and corruption, already exceed any prior standard for impeachment."

For those that like eating fish (or shellfish) Do you like when a dish tastes “fishy”? Or do you want that funky flavor to be absent like you see in breaded fillets or sushi? I just had a crab cake BLT at the brewery just now and it was delightfully “fishy”.

Our local university (SMSU) is doing a production of Come from Away. I’m playing bass in the pit and we are just getting rehearsals going. Fun music, zippy show, Im excited for the run. Hopefully a lot of people come see it.

A lot of guys who can mimic civility, like Cox here, are going to pivot to a “gee shucks can’t we all just get along” stance. The answer to that question is no. We cannot.
