Munoz: has a cat to go feed, doesn't fuck around

He was brilliant tonight, peak Smoke. 🙌

Good stress! Last night was sad & hard, but today I felt good; it was tense as hell, but listening to Rizzs, Goldy & Gary on the radio synced w the TV (muting the awful FS1 announcers), it was fantastic 🔱

I went to my very first game in the Kingdome as a little kid-this is great!

The media won't cut down Trump because the media loves Trump.

Journalists are reveling in getting back into the spotlight again, enjoying the clicks and attention that Trump provides them each day.

Changes at NIH Give Political Appointees Greater Power To Fund or Block Research - KFF Health News The National Institutes of Health’s long-held standard of peer review for grantmaking has been subverted by President Donald Trump and NIH Director Jay Bhattacharya, who gave unprecedented power to po...

Even though it's crisis #192308 in our current time, I don't think it's sufficiently sunk in with ppl in the academic community that getting federal funding for your research will primarily depend on whether Trump political appointees find you and your work useful

Because media profits from Trump. Chaos=clicks=$

The media doesn't fact check false claims made by people who say things like this, instead they print them as is, and then that coverage is used to justify all sorts of actions

(thread below on false claims The NY Times published from ppl "fleeing" Portland ⬇️)

When Trump does his "crackdowns" on cities, guess what this means for the media?

"Journalists" in Portland are servicing Trump by providing content shots like this to go out on the wires and across the internet ⬇️

The choice of photo here by the AP is egregious, deliberate, & works to play into Trump's false narrative.

Here's a live shot of Portland, Sunday 10/5/25.

Whipping a narrative for their MAGA audience. He doesn't care about veracity, simply that it's the kind of red meat that the base craves: "evil liberals" that they can hurt.

As I said to my kid about the FP kids who held '23 sit-ins & spraypainted demanding the college divest from Starbucks:

They all re-enrolled for 2024, & again in '25; if it was really utterly against their values, they could have (SHOULD have) transferred away, but they didn't

It's protest theater

The extent to which these people try to blame shit Republicans are doing on Democrats is truly astounding

He can do it. He and Cal are going to be focused.

Furious George Kirby in little league

Awaiting an appearance by Furious George, who's going to be locked in!

Run support on deck from all our faves! 🔱🔱🔱🔱🔱🔱🔱🔱

And I'm sure he's got a Mariners Naylor baby onesie

These guys. 🥹

Let's go! 🔱

All the caps. Wear them all #GOMS

We can fund health care and keep the government running, or we can shut everything down to raise prices on people.

To me, that’s a pretty easy choice.

Yes & one is not "progressive" if your morally approved candidates don't win or implement any of your fave policies, because they can't/don't build a coalition to implement any of them & you refuse to vote for anyone but them

The results of that? BACKSLIDING.

There's nothing progressive about that

Not...the news any of us wanted to hear this morning.

Let's hope that Furious George locks in tonight & Ms bank wins here at home this weekend.

This is the best scenario; early labor at the end of the 9th & they've got a plane for Naylor waiting & ready to go.
🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞

Woke up and immediately read Lookout Landing.
Obsessed. Stressed. Excited.
Hoping we've got Furious George locked in.

Ha! Excellent :)

I'm also counting on several Ichiro moments, shots of Dave N's statue 😭, & with the replays I think we get Junior pile on, Edgar's The Double, & Randy Johnson pitching to Dan & that incredible winning moment.

Deep cut? Moose being towed by the cart & careening into the wall

The GOP is lying. They are distracting from their failures to address the health care crisis that they created.

☎️ Call your Republican reps, demand they stop being complicit with Trump & his billionaire friends to steal your tax dollars—they can stop Trump at any time, they're choosing Trump over your family

Demand that they vote with Dems to preserve the ACA & your access to healthcare

Trump just isn’t interested in the shutdown. It’s boring for him.

He’s president for getting applauded & tangible dominance displays. A shutdown doesn’t stroke those.

Couple that with his derision for Black voters, and dismissing anyone outside of his beloved white working class as just talking about "identity politics"

House Speaker Mike Johnson says that the expiration of ACA tax credits is an “extraneous matter.”

But there is nothing extraneous about 20 million hard-working Americans who cannot afford higher health insurance premiums next year.
