A Blog of Their Own

Yeah, but every team has those. The sport is pretty broken and it’s going to wither if 3/4 of the fans have zero reason to believe their team can compete.

LOL, no problem. I just want to be able to be grouchy over ultimately inconsequential things (like baseball) without being lectured by scolds about why I shouldn't be grouchy. I can hate the Dodgers AND my team's ownership!

yes but it was sarcasm

I think it would be cool and interesting if someone posted something like "You actually shouldn't be pissy about the Dodgers buying all the good players, you should be pissy that YOUR team's owner didn't buy all the good players!" That would be an original and needed addition to the discourse

when you see Trump on camera angrily attacking female reporters for asking straightforward questions, it doesn’t take much to imagine what he does behind closed doors when a woman says ‘No’

Read this as an American woman and then go break something.

Now imagine sitting on a flight next to a pit stained, worm oozing lunatic about to have a boner pill induced heart attack for the next 12 hours. This is somehow…patriotic? wtf are they even selling here? I think they did this to show off almost being able to do a pull-up?

Walking my dog this morning, I passed by two older women—friends—who had just run into each other on the street.

Woman #1: “Are you wearing underwear?”

Woman #2: “Thankfully no.”

They laughed a lot and went their ways and I love them.

Thread on how to detect ai in that viral dog video

That’s dumb

It’s fake. Sorry.

These are not shelter dogs. Sorry. This is either fake or mislabeled.

….which also bugs me, because sometimes YES THAT MATTERS.

So much conflation of issues in this discourse. If the goal is equity, then YES IT MATTERS whether students who don’t need accommodations are getting them. But a lot of people are also changing the subject to “why does it matter how long it takes them if they know the material”…. (cont’d)

Boy, he's doing pretty well for a guy who's totally in the grips of dementia.

This exactly....replace tacos with falafel. Problem solved

Agreed but FYI "constitution" is misspelled in the graphic

The Nobel Prize committee should announce the World Cup winner tomorrow

It's a daily barrage of horrors, but now and then there's a story about a cruelty so pointed and so pointless that it just breaks me.

This is one of them. These bigoted assholes fucking deadnamed Rachel Levine in her official portrait at HHS.

I hate them all so much I want to cry.

Few things in his life made my highly educated and passionately leftist father as happy as the forklift he got in his 60s.

His wife is laughing just out of frame

ON the bed also nice

You will never convince me that “seam-shifted wake” isn’t a phrase straight out of Yeats.

Missouri’s got one for the list!

People thought this was real, huh.

Huh.

He's a stupid, cruel, prepubescent boy who thinks this is all a video game, and who doesn't know that the past tense of "sink" is "sank." May he die in prison.

I completely forgot there was a game and I see I was better off that way.

I know it can feel overwhelming that the president is a war criminal, a bigot, an idiot, a liar, a felon, a fraud, and a sundowning weirdo, but try to keep in mind that he’s also a pedophile.

“When participants used ChatGPT to draft essays, brain scans revealed a 47% drop in neural connectivity across regions associated with memory, language, & critical reasoning.

Their brains worked less, but they felt just as engaged—a kind of metacognitive mirage.”🧪

A version of the Simpsons "Lionel Hutz" newspaper ad modified to use the words in Keith's post. So bright red punctuation modifies otherwise grey text from "KILL THEM ALL" to "KILL THEM ALL?" and from "NO SURVIVORS" to "NO, SURVIVORS!"
