“Game”
Ohio State landed a signature PR win on Saturday, rivaling a key bowl win. Now all we need to do is beat TTUN…
He’s so desperate for attention.
Somebody is throwing things out of a window of the White House wtaf
Thinking about how the great Barbara Ehrenreich nailed one of the primary problems with modern journalism a full decade ago. “The real face of journalism today: not million dollar-a-year anchorpersons, but low-wage workers and downwardly spiraling professionals…“ www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...
Ok but hear me out, what if we taxed the fuck out of really rich people
Dear Trump staffers: It would really help sell the whole thing if you were a bit less observant of traditional rules of grammar, punctuation, and casing in his social media posts.
Bond served HER majesty’s secret service. He’s dead and so is she. Leave it that way.
Some days I'm struck by how much effort it takes to continue to see things as they are, and continue to speak out in defense of reality. The Trump Regime is all-encompassing. But I'm resolved that speaking truth to power, acknowledging reality to power, is the most important thing I can do.
I was really hoping that was a typo.
Wut?
…or we could tax the rich.
Because baby wants attention. Pure and simple.
Nope
Listen, I want it to happen as much as all of you, but it's starting to give "Beyonce is definitely going to perform at the Democratic convention tonight"
Julian Sayin had a 40-yard touchdown pass to Carnell Tate early in the fourth quarter, Ohio State’s defense got a couple key stops in the red zone and the third-ranked Buckeyes opened their season with a 14-7 victory over top-ranked Texas on Saturday. Read more at the link in bio.
Lee Corso’s last pick came true!!! Go Bucks!!!!
Go drink some blood, you weird old blond man.
Lee Corso’s final pick. Perfect weather. Air Force flyover. Unveil 2025 champs banner. Archie Griffin’s 50th anniv. Brutus Buckeye’s 60th anniv. Signature Ohio State win over #1 team. Only one thing more can make today a perfect day in Columbus, Ohio… …your move, aorta.
THIS OHIO STATE FAN JUST NAILED A $250,000 KICK 🤯💰
On broadcast FOX if you have an antenna
Tide should do ads to show how they could get grass stains out of Texas’s “touchdown pass.”
Here’s your reminder that Vivek Ramaswamy moved his own business out of Ohio to Texas #gobucks #hornsdown
“Give me my first love!”
The Haslams could have had endless good will in Columbus after the Crew were saved, but they managed to burn through all of it in record time, and that’s honestly impressive even by the standards of evil sports owners
When I was tain-a-bumfit… It was a very good year…
IMO many Americans don't even buy guns for personal protection or to defend themselves against a tyrannical government. They simply have a shopping addiction
Ohio State is playing Texas at noon and Ohio U. as a night game? I think someone got those times reversed.
Why do you hate them?
Since everyone's talking about the latest mass shooting manifesto, here's something I wrote for @theprogressivemag.bsky.social earlier this year about how mass shooters are networking and encouraging one another in online spaces. progressive.org/magazine/no-...
This is Trump and Elon’s plan. Kill grandma. Buy her house. End USAID. Buy the failing farms. Use private equity to close trusted businesses. Crash everything and snatch up the wreckage for pennies on the dollar.

Ohio Gov. DeWine tried to act like he gave a shit about trans kids, but he clearly only wanted to appease transphobic extremists groups. If he had cared, he would be leading on this like Gov. Pritzker instead of being the worst of the worst.
Unless you’re planning to buy your second luxury yacht, the so-called Big Beautiful Bill is an ugly piece of legislation that transfers your wealth to the richest people in the country.
I refuse to believe we are going to relitigate slavery. SLAVERY. It’s too much.
I went to sleep last night with my phone volume at zero, but my Tidal app was apparently playing delta blues all night. I guess my phone is just cooler than I am...

Would it kill national democrats to do some solidarity on issues and moments like this? Think outside the box, for once.
Man, if I still had cable, I would be pissed...
Ismail Mohamed is the first Somali-American attorney to practice in Ohio AND Ohio’s first Somali-American male lawmaker He is the American dream 🇺🇲 ......So of course he's under attack from racists at the national level: open.substack.com/pub/rachelco...
Wonder if Mile DeWine will send the National Guard to Brook Park to force construction on the Browns’ unclaimed fundome.
If you send the Ohio National Guard to kill Americans you get a statue and the tallest building in Columbus named after you

Every single time I go to DC, see horrific crime everywhere so I’m glad there’s a plan to exterminate horrific crime. Oh wait… typo… sorry, instead of “horrific crime,” that should read “rats.”
The secret to cooking is realizing you have no retirement funds or Healthcare system so you may as well eat bacon and butter and enjoy what years you do have

Hello. The president's continued insistence that the BLS numbers are rigged, political, or otherwise manipulated is a lie. Please stop saying 'baseless claim.' Thank you.
Why not build Trump’s ballroom on the moon, too? And then leave him there.
@netrootsnation.bsky.social Packing business casual. Emphasis on casual. #NoJackets #NoTies #NotSweatingIt #NN25
I don't want a ballroom in The White House. I want healthcare.

Holy shit, they did it. They wrote the headline.
It just occurred to me that if a college marching band does an Ozzy tribute this fall, most of the students will have to have to have him explained to them... not only because they're too young for his music, but also most of them were born after The Osbornes went off the air.
You’re forgetting bombing Iran.
Not guilty.

If MAGA politicians actually cared about "protecting kids," #Trump's name in the #Epstein files would be a dealbreaker. rachelcoylehtw.substack.com/p/trump-supp...
What if Paramount cancels the Daily Show and then South Park hires Jon Stewart and just animates his political commentary into their shows? I’d watch that.

The Emmy that Stephen Colbert is now inevitably going to win in September should be quite a moment. The ceremony will be airing on, you guessed it, CBS.
Honored to stand alongside Lupita Nyong'o today on Capitol Hill to speak out about uterine health — a critical issue impacting so many women. Silence saves no one. It’s time we raise our voices and demand better awareness, research, and care. #uterinehealthawareness

Yet another reason why a robust public media is so vital!
Fuck you for supporting Bezos.
hey every single journalist who still uses twitter as your primary site, does the fact that the chatbot is promoting the Final Solution rise to the level of a news story or no stop making this the global hub for news communication
So glad Greg Abbott has a plan to win 119 drowning victims back to life. Win, Greg! Win!
I know it's the least important part, but the random capitalization is just too much.
The White House denying the Epstein List exists was predictable. The fact that they bombed Iran as a stalling tactic with the media to give themselves time to think up this strategy is ...also predictable.
So considerate that the Reds and Guardians always make sure that sports fans in Ohio have their Septembers clear to focus on football.
The Morse code in the middle says “By Prohias”, meaning Antonio Prohias, the artist.
The potential for Elon Musk to flood a country with controlled Starlink internet access and AI generated propaganda has never been more terrifying.

That is exactly right! I saw a guy get kicked out of a college class once by a professor because he thought a student's well-intentioned joke was a personal assault. It's remarkable that the student wasn't me for once.
I give a media training that includes a warning to avoid sarcasm when talking to the public. I give several examples of a delivered line that sounds like a funny way of making your point, but then show how it reads as the exact opposite as a transcript.
Wisconsin's Supreme Court said that all the post-Roe abortion restrictions in that state effectively constituted a legislative repeal of their pre-Roe abortion ban. Not what I expected when I opened the article, but I'll take it.
A national abortion ban is closer than you think. The Senate bill could close one in four abortion providers nationwide. As we saw with Roe, a right only on paper is no right at all
#Ohio libraries are in danger —— Ask Governor DeWine to VETO this unAmerican censorship requirement hidden in the state budget: open.substack.com/pub/rachelco... As we've seen in other states, this unworkable provision could force library branches to shut down or become "adults-only"
Enough! This is exactly why ICE should be required to identify themselves. If ICE looks like criminals and thugs, they should be regarded as such. 🚨 Yesterday, an L.A. man was arrested for impersonating a federal agent. Loaded gun, fake documents, cop gear and even blinking & blue on his car
Johnny Noviello moved from Canada to Daytona Beach when he was 10 years old. He grew up in Florida and became a lawful permanent resident. On Monday, June 23, he died at the Federal Detention Center in downtown Miami, after six weeks in immigration detention. www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...

RIP to my brother's dog, Hank. He was the best good boy that I ever did photoshop:
Must-read column from @ppaohio.bsky.social's @daniellefirsich.bsky.social: "Unless Governor DeWine uses his line-item veto power, House Bill 96 will take away Medicaid from the 770,000 Ohioans who received coverage with the 2014 expansion, and the consequences would be disastrous."
‼️ TAKE ACTION: Demand Gov. DeWine veto this terrible budget bill by calling his office at (614) 466-3555 or by sending an email at AbortionForward.org/2025Budget The version of the budget currently sitting on Gov. DeWine's desk is cruel for cruelty’s sake, plain and simple.
