Really, NPR?? At a time like this, when Orange Man and his minions are trying to kill you, you’re now going to try to kill yourself first?! Why should I give you and your member stations more of my money if you’re going to pull this BS?!

The Dodgers win the World Series, Trump is still f’ing up the country and messing with the world…time to go back to bed for how long? The rest of 2025? Also, how soon until pitchers and catchers report? (P.S. Sorry, Canada)

And in related news, I need to figure out what random place I left my keys and phone.

This means it's time for the return of STRIKE FORCE FIVE! ⚑🌩️⚑Well, maybe Strike Force Four at this point - Fallon has been playing the "be nice to both sides" game a bit too long.

First CBS cancels Colbert's show (at least he gets to stick around until May), now this. It may be time to bring back the Strike Force Five podcast! 🌩️⚑ variety.com/2025/tv/news...

No, he can’t, but SHE can. πŸ˜‰ Although she’s way too smart to want to run this shitshow of a country at this point.

No kidding. When even the NYT can’t get this right, journalism is truly dead. Shame. Fuck AI.

Please, NOOOOOOO!!!! Don't even put that idea out into the universe - our broadcasters are the only thing about the Giants keeping me sane!

I didn't have to get far into the responses to see a great example of why the Democrats keep losing to the Orange Menace: They'd rather fight each other over their individual issues than sacrifice even a teeny bit and band together to get rid of the Republicans who run over ALL of us. Heavy sigh.

Maybe he thinks Colbert is the same guy as the "Stephen Colbert" he played on The Colbert Report? In other words, he's utterly blind to satire?

It bothers me when it has been a day or two and they badger me again. Or even a third time. I once had a plumbing company remind me twice each on email and text. They did good work, but ENOUGH ALREADY. Makes me think that the "line" plumbers ought to go work for a different, lower pressure company.

I dunno...it's not perfect. A few times when I was in France recently, Apple Maps got confused by medieval city centers and tried to direct my car down tiny streets clearly marked with the international symbol for "Do Not Enter." So I *still* got lost, when I tried to avoid going the wrong way.

If you know that so many people hate clickbait/"curiosity gap" headlines, how do you know that they are preventing your colleagues from being laid off? Is there research showing that more people strongly like those headlines than hate them? Also, I'd like to know more about your "audience team."

Seriously???? 44% APPROVE?? WTF would he have to do to get below 20%, which is where he should be ("four out of five dentists agree," and the fifth dentist believes in RFK Jr.'s approach)? Kill someone with his bare hands?!

To help you feel better, here's what made MY journalism professors roll in their graves: Once, as a young writer/editor for a car club magazine, I misquoted the club president, then, in the correction, attributed my mistake to misunderstanding her NYC accent. Wrong again: She was from Boston. ACK.

Might be just as well, as let’s face it, Republicans won’t listen to her but might listen to him. Guess why….heavy sigh….

Happy #PiDay! Whether or not you've heard the song before (I hadn't), I recommend finding and listening to the Kate Bush song "Pi." Not posting it here since it requires YouTube and I won't promote them, but listening to her sing dozens of digits of pi in her gorgeous voice just made me feel better.

So I’m assuming the name of Gavin Newsom’s podcast is β€œI Don’t Want To Be President”
