Dave’s not here

Surely a new stadium built by taxpayer dollars would have kept the Rays from getting their asses kicked in the World Series. 🙄

Corrected headline: “Anthropic accessed Georgia voter data using ClaudeAI program” You’re welcome.

Twas always thus, ‘twill always be.

Everything is so fucking stupid. Anyway, someone with Ebay please let me know when you see it.

EDS: Sub second sentence with “loss to Indiana in the semifinal” sted “win over East Carolina in the Birmingham Bowl.”

It’s okay, Alabama. After your win over East Carolina in the Birmingham Bowl, the 83yo sports editor at the Marengo County Times will write a 2,000-word column declaring the Tide “the greatest team in all the land,” and you can thus claim your 33rd national championship.

The Braves snarl traffic and drive up my property taxes (indirectly anyway, as Cobb County does that to make up for the tax breaks given to the Braves). Anyway, must-read upcoming.

Shoutout to the dickbag driving a golf cart on the 18th at Pinetree CC in kennesaw, Ga., around 6:35p today. I saw you pick up your ball and keep driving. May you never get rid of your slice, and may you catch VD from your mistress.

With one week to go before midterms, Georgians need to ask why a billionaire healthcare executive with no medical expertise, a worshipful reverence for Donald Trump and significant investments in data centers wants to be Georgia’s governor.

People are so fucking stupid, getting in their feelings about they/them as singilar pronouns WHEN IN FACT THEY/THEM HAVE SERVED AS SINGULAR PRONOUNS IN CASES OF UNKNOWN SEX SINCE THE ORIGINS OF THE GODDAMNED ENGLISH LANGUAGE. Thank you.

Me, Monday: Okay, magic number is 1. Surely the Cubs won’t lose all their remaining 6 and not get help from elsewhere. Me, today: 😶‍🌫️

Thrilled for Ashton Landsdell, the pride of Marietta’s Wheeler High! Also, Mo’ne Davis gets her ring.

On one hand, shocking to see empty seats at an SEC game. On the other hand, the home team is down by five TDs and it’s 94 degrees. 🤷‍♂️

I attended a townhall involving police and cameras. I don’t feel like C&Ping the whole thing, and I hate to send you back to the Zuck-verse, but… www.threads.com/share/_iJwnT...

Mrs. Pepys puked and rallied. What a trouper.

Yeah, mid-upper 90s in Week 3. Hell is real.

This technology needs Sarah Connor, I swear.

SECOND DAY IN A ROW, GRIM REAPER, WRONG 80YO YOU GODDAMNED MORON

Sorry everyone. It was hot, I had to start moving my parents, I sat in traffic, and then I stopped by a brewery with exclusively “easy drinking” “session” beers on tap, excepting an absolutely mediocre stout that I drank before I could slink out undetected.

And were it not for family I’d beat bricks the fuck out of here.

I am not *from* georgia. I own property here, my bikes are here, my family’s here, my books are here, but my grandparents were born elsewhere, therefore no one considers me “from” Georgia, least of all me.

“Notoriously liberal publication” on Oct. 19, 2024, in case anyone from the Bone Spurs admin wanted to check facts.

How the fuck does a bar in Georgia run out of Yuengling?

Southerners sure do bitch about the hot summer weather.

She said she had a good time but I live too far away. Fair. I wouldn’t sit for hours in Atlanta traffic for me, either.

The bad news is I take rejection personally. The good news is I direct it all inward so you have nothing to worry about ma’am. I’ll just be on my fucking way.

I have a date tomorrow. The gap between “HI HELLO I LIKE YOU PLEASE LIKE ME” and “truly do not give half a damn” is a foot wide and a thousand feet deep.

I am begging you if you make music online, please let me Buy It. Let me Pay You for downloadable music files. Please exist somewhere other than music streaming services

That I turned over 100,000 miles in my car on 285 says so much about my Georgia experience.

Bus parked outside Wheeler High that says “Trump 2028,” in case you wondered about respect for the constitution and setting an example or whatever.

Today the president will appear at a majority non-white high school in suburban Atlanta, ostensibly to pimp his namebranded savings accounts. However, GOP candidates/lackeys for governor and senator will appear/stump with him, so draw whatever conclusions you want about the true nature of the event.

Never did hear an explanation for why the Dems would have “stolen” the presidential election but not Congressional, giving the most moderate, milquetoast D prez ever a recalcitrant R-dominated congress to oppose him on everything.

Sun shines on a dog’s ass every now and then.

I’m just curious why the n@zi tattoo and the indignant explanation that followed didn’t break the deal months ago.

I like how FIFA says "this is in line with Article 27 of our disciplinary code" and you expect it to be something about the specific reasons when they can undo improper VAR decisions or a review of the specific play but its just "we can undo suspensions if we decide to undo suspensions" lmao

I remember when he was an inherited-wealthy tech bro celebrating the demise of the Rocky Mountain News, which didn’t come up a couple years later when he ran for US House. I guess you truly do move right when you stay rich and get what you want.

Playing in the background is “Mama Told Me Not to Come,” by Three Dog Night. Related, Oxford Kate’s will be the name of my pub.

“Axe: New fine fragrance” field-level dasher board perfectly sums up this Men’s World Cup.

Isn't this just the plot of "Kate and Allie"?

Look I went to the Democratic caucus in Pueblo, Colorado this year--a party faithful event that is so arcane that people don't even know it happens and exists. These ARE the people who knock doors. These are the volunteers. Anyway, so many of them were upset with the Democratic Party.

What this Cup needs is hooligans. The Gravy Seal Ice agents would soil themselves before getting curb-stomped. Anyway, read this.

Oops. Oh well.

In the mid-2010s, Cobb County’s commissioners approved the Braves ballpark 4-1 around 24 hours after they produced a 500-page plan for the stadium and its surroundings. Each of the four approving commissioners lost their next election. It can be done.

Historian of abolition here, history tells us how we got here, to put it succinctly “John Brown was hanged for treason and Robert E. Lee was not.”

When the revolution comes everyone on the White House beat will have to cover metro high school sports instead. You're standing in the rain at 10 pm on a Friday with a swim meet tomorrow, learning what work is

The face of someone who’s devoted their life to service, science and space exploration needing to listen to some draft-dodging, out-of-shape bozo brag that he easily could’ve been an astronaut.

Odd night for MN sports…

All too relevant — still — from Ari Berman.
