For the Cowboy fan in your life, inform them the reason Parsons got traded to GB was because they did not chant loudly enough to pay him!

Quote from Jones about how Pay Lamb chants last year were louder than Pay Micah chants this year at training camp

This chart is hilarious because in addition to making a great point about Micah Parsons, it’s a hilarious stroll down memory lane of all the guys the Packers were linked to but didn’t get. And of all those guys, Micah Parsons was the one I least believed would happen.

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.

One huge understated problem for Bluesky right now is that having a higher frequency of good, sound political opinions changed to being a very bad thing for one’s mental health once Trump took office. Comparatively, X’s alternate reality culture and random ads everywhere is less upsetting.
