One of my most shameful confessions is that I once took this guy seriously
Laboratories of infection. The dumbest of times.
Oh my god the payoff
Well, everyone is talking about UNC football. Feels kinda weird
"Budding Wordsmiths" holy shit
I am glad to say that Bil Keane was by all accounts a decent man who was close to, and loved by, his children. One of of sons took over the strip. web.archive.org/web/20111111...
Could have at lease offered her a Bloody Mary.
Every single one of these people should be institutionalized.
I’m sorry, what now?
Is Martha Raddatz on the White House payroll
Most Canadian story ever.
Mayor McCheese suffered a massive coronary #RIP
Oh well, maybe next time
With the AJC dropping its print edition, I feel compelled to share one of the greatest moments in print design history
Damn, this got me
"WNC veteran on why he burned a flag outside the White House — and what comes next" I interviewed Jay Carey, the man who was arrested for burning an American flag Monday: mountainx.com/news/politic...
Now playing…
She never stops creating content. Relentless
OK, that’s awesome.
Meet your 2026 Opening Day starter, O's fans

Tennis, not baseball
When you definitely understand how impeachment works.
I'm 57, and I'm further left than I was at 27.
"Please, call me Tom. Mr. Tits Exp was the father."
Every morning, I log on to Bluesky with one question in mind: "What fresh horror awaits today?"
I’m sorry, what?
Frey: And don't just say, this is about thoughts and prayers right now. These kids were literally praying. It was the first week of school. They were in a church.
"The top story of the moment is the one story that our most influential newsrooms won’t touch: That the United State has become an authoritarian state." — Dan Froomkin @froomkin.bsky.social presswatchers.org/2025/08/we-h...
Absolutely chilling
Every couple of days it stops me dead in my tracks and knocks the breath out of me to realize how bad things are gonna get for how many people in how many ways, and how it is all down to the petty insane whims of one of the worst people America has ever produced.
Pritzker: To the members of the press who are assembled here today and listening across the country, I am asking for your courage to tell it like it is. This is not a time to pretend here that there are two sides to this story.
Orioles went into a tailspin right around this time and finished last with 89 losses
Why do I have feeling this is something Stephen Miller came up because he wants to get images of people burning American flags.
Absolutely broken brain on that woman. I hope she gets the help she needs.
This shit again?
Ben Verlander has a baseball media job and I don’t ☹️
Which one is the Helen Ruth Division?
now do gunnar
things were better when the computer lived in its own specific room and you only went in there sometimes
Well, this is certainly refreshing news.
One of the biggest developments of the Bicentennial era was communities who didn’t see their story included in American history creating museums, preservation efforts, and other ways to save and share their histories. That the 250th is being used to actively erase those stories is a travesty.
A baseball story MAGA would like us to forget. We wont. www.postandcourier.com/tncms/asset/editorial/576e1fd1-fcee-4dd0-b993-054117cb2050
Trump said felons were walking the streets of DC and he aims to prove it.
The people who say we talk too much about slavery are the same ones who insist that we need public monuments and statues of men who are famous solely for waging a war of treason in defense of slavery. Statues that were created explicitly to deny any sense of "hope and progress" after the Civil War.
The Indifferent Stars Above, by Daniel James Brown
You fought the Law, and the Law won
I’ll admit I kinda thought Chris Matthews had died.
Yep, they need to be serious about building a real pitching staff in the offseason
Dammit, I’m starting to get excited about the 2026 Orioles. Someone talk me down.
She is a deeply strange person
Good news in a season that hasn’t had much for the Orioles.
His journalism is bad, too.
Lots of dumb stuff here, but the dumbest is the Charlotte AND Nashville are going to get expansion teams
As an Orioles fan, I approve these divisions lol
Never go full Bert Campaneris
I don't think anyone actually cares this much about the name MS Now, and it at this point it's just group think piling on for no reason.
This reality is Cooper has the sort of advantage Biden had in 2020. He's too much of an old, normie white guy for the GOP to successfully paint him as some sort of radical. It just doesn't stick.
If we can't bully this psychopath off BlueSky, what's the point?
This behavior is indistinguishable from the worst secret polices of fascist regimes of the 20th century.
Oh fuck off
It’s Oriole Magic baby
Smithers thinks this is overdoing it
Imagine having this little dignity
Brandon Young.
Jesus Christ, how is this our reality?
Given the audience demographics, this makes sense.
First season was great
WaPo is done. Just absolutely cooked.
Let's be honest, tho, that would be hilarious.
That's right, f*** Larry Sheets
On this date, the first performance of "Casey at the Bat," in 1888, by De Wolf Hopper at Wallack's Theatre.
I am older than Leo, and I still think of myself as being like 27 or something ... until I look in the mirror.
How the heck has it been 30 years?
Oh, so wasn’t supporting the strategy by any means
Yes. I was 24 that year and hadn't seen a D president since I was 12. It's hard to explain how liberating it felt when Clinton won.
I was in high school and college during the Reagan/Bush years, and honestly I still have a hard time not letting those three straight landslides color the way I think about politics.
ha, I thought I was going insane
Same energy.
Dean Cain and James Woods?
That’s PBSese for “he’s lying again.”
Literally nobody has that strategy though.
This is a head shot.
A lot of people have memory holed what 2020 was actually like.
I
WHAT THE HECK IS IN THOSE FILES?!
I know people love to doom about this stuff on here, but I don't get how you can have any other reaction than to find this incredibly dumb and make fun of it.
We're endangering the future of the richest and most powerful country in the history of humanity. For nothing. Over nothing.
Seeing people who should know better falling for obviously fake stories on social media is so damn depressing.
Soon, I hope.
I went to college with her son, had no idea she wrote it.
Remember when they savaged him for taking a vacation in Hawaii: you know, where he’s from and where his grandmother lived?
I know, it should say "Mets legend."
