Oh, I will watch this. (Also, please read @greenwell.bsky.social’s excellent “Bad Company.”)

The fact that it made it from stage to screen is wild. That only happens for tik tokers these days. 😶

No, that’s Mighty Boosh—which is also fantastic.

I grew up on Red Dwarf airing on Maryland Public Television. Give it a rewatch every few years to this day. So good.

Conversely, with that money, buy:

👟 cleats for local kiddos
🥕 vegetables to live long enough to see the fall of the corpo-footy machine

We chatted with HC Nick Cushing--who he is outside of soccer, his experience in the WSL & MLS, his vantage of the current NWSL & how he intends to build a team to win Year 1 & beyond.

"The vibe is great. The vibe is at an all-time high," Bruce Brown on his return to the Nuggets.

I don't know who needs to hear this today, but you shouldn't be afraid to embrace your unique creative voice. Make the art only you can make. Let your imagination run wild. Shine like a star. The world needs your brilliance.

Dave Matthews has the opportunity to do the funniest thing.

This is “Insane Asylum” all over again with “Capital Punishment”.

What's happening with Jimmy Kimmel is about politics and power.

“We’re going to keep showing up until they stop abducting our neighbors.”

This is the playbook, folks.

If you're not paying attention now and doing something about it, then you're going to have to sit down the rest of your life because democracy is being taken away.

Do not be quiet in this moment.

President Donald Trump on Thursday suggested that networks should lose their broadcast licenses if their on-air talent is critical of him. “They’re giving me all this bad press, and they’re getting a license,” Trump told reporters aboard Air Force One when asked if Federal Communications Commissioner Brendan Carr should go after other talk show hosts after Jimmy Kimmel was suspended from the air. “I would think maybe their license should be taken away.”

This is the story:

Trump crushing free speech is a genuine emergency and so is invading blue cities, but good for O'Donnell for tying the two together. These abuses can still be distraction tactics. That's how wagging the dog works. The tail is trivial compared to the dog, but it's driving.

We’re through the Black Mirror.

From Wired a few weeks ago. A lot of the people who I was told for years were the adults in the room are being asked how they want to be remembered, and that answer is very clearly "cowards."

ICYMI: On Monday, I released ASA VizHub, the newest way to access @americansocceranalysis.com data. There's a lot packed in there, so here's all you need to know about what VizHub can do ⬇️

We'll start granular and zoom out, beginning with game-level player graphics.

Public transportation to Red Rocks coming in 2026 (on weekends only) And only between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. But it's something!

Once again, RTD gives us a minimum viable service that is designed to fail. Linking to the W line which runs on 30-minute headways makes this almost impossible to use.

So no one will use it, and RTD will declare the experiment a failure. Wash, rinse, repeat.

I am concerned and worried about the school shooting in Evergreen.

It strikes me that social and mainstream media is not concerned - and that is because they are somewhat out of touch with Americas real issues.

Bad Bunny Says He Didn’t Include U.S. in Tour Dates Due to Fear of ICE Raids Bad Bunny explained that he left the United States off his tour itinerary for fear that ICE 'could be outside [my concert].'

Bad Bunny, one of the biggest musical artists in the world, said he avoided the US in his tour because he thought ICE would set up ouside his shows.

"We don't allow 'political' banners/flags because we wouldn't want to briefly upset the fragile brains of facists, homophobes, racists, pro-kid-cancer people, & similar backwards-ass demos who likely think soccer is communist sissy sport & don't attend in meaningful numbers anyway"

COMMENTARY: If this was happening in another nation, we'd call it by name. It's authoritarianism.

If you're 60, 69.1% of all job growth since your birth occurred under Democratic administrations.

If you're 45, that number is 74.7%.

If you're under 28, the number is 100%.

Happy Labor Day.

Post from Donald Trump on Truth Social: A really deadly weekend in Chicago. 6 dead, 27 hurt in crime sprees all over the city. Panic stricken Governor Pritzker says that crime is under control, when in fact it is just the opposite. He is an incompetent governor who should call me for help. Mayor Johnson is no better. Make Chicago great again!

According to federal data, 13 of the top 20 cities in homicide rates have Republican governors. None of those cities are Chicago.

8 of the top 10 states in homicide rates are led by Republicans. None of those states are Illinois.

And yet Trump is sending troops here.

imagine being so maniacally racist that you side with the fire over the firefighter
