No Kings. Kansas City.

No Kings. Kansas City.

It was big.

The vibe on the Plaza was a bit different today than back in June. Much more…patriotic. More American flags. More β€œwe’re going to reclaim our country from these fascists.” And a lot more inflatables. It was probably 2x as large as the last one. Proud of my city.

This. We are in dark times, but I find joy in these protests. My people massively turned out today in Kansas City. Resolute. Steadfast. We will not let these fuckers win.

Trump clocks in at 37%-61% in new AP-NORC poll. It’s the worst poll of his rancid 2nd term. Happy No Kings Day!

If you are faculty, alumni, staff, student, or a student's parent at any of these places, you have an unusual chance to influence the future right now by communicating with your administration clearly about what's at stake.

Joe Davis carving up a turkey. It’s not John Smoltz.

I cannot tell you how happy I am to watch this. I need the full seven games.

I really need a Mariners/Brewers World Series. And I need the Brewers to change their name to the Pilots and then all the games can be played in Seattle. I NEED THIS.

β€œLargely” had his back? Dickerson is a legend who had a genuine moment after a 15 inning marathon. I love listening to him call Tigers games. Top tier broadcaster.

Blue Jays. Mariners. The battle for 1977 expansion supremacy.

In addition to his third base coaching in KC(He should’ve sent Gordon! He sent Cain!), Jirsh was the manager in Omaha when Joe Randa was called up in 1995 & when Jac Caglianone was called up in 2025. Quite the baseball life.

Oh my god that was an absolutely brutal way to end that series.

Brewers/Cubs on the TV, Phillies/Dodgers on the ipad and streaming the Phillies broadcast on my phone. Synced to the ipad, naturally. I am 21st century baseball man.

So every Cubs/Brewers game starts with the home team putting up a crooked number in the first? Noted.

Of course Wrigley Field is all about day baseball, but the place just looks magical under the lights. I really need to get up there to see a night game next year.

really can’t say enough about how mike johnson is a sniveling little coward of a man. a bayou-bred pushover with a dignity deficit that would embarrass renfield

The Brewers and Cubs trading three-run jacks in the first inning improves my mood.
