The Guarding Building is one of my favorite buildings in the world. Granted, I love art deco, but I'll still take that building over the Chrysler Building in Manhattan. Plus, the sunrises and sunsets really do hit the city beautifully.
Josh (@saltedjosh.bsky.social)
Great photo. I always loved how the sun hit the Fisher as well. Never got a photo of it because I was usually in my car when I noticed it.

Since we're going to have so many new diseases spreading throughout the populace under RRFK Jr's mass death programs, when we get one that comes with leaky body sores, we should name that disease Nate Silver Oozing Pustules.

Back in 1996 when we were at UChicago together, he called me "obtuse" in class because I was in favor of pluralism and democracy. His fave topic in our Critical Theory seminar was discussing how people are not created equal and that some people are less intelligent or useful than others.

I kinda want a secret room with a false door but I feel like one or two weird things is my limit. My secret room would just be a small cozy room with books, art supplies, and ideally something to block wifi.

Bordalás is probably watching the replay and getting ideas to install a tar and rock pitch at Getafe before they play Barcelona.
Samuel Marsden (@samuelmarsden.bsky.social) reposted
Barça drop points for first time this season, held at RayoVallecano. Pitch comically bad & VAR not always operational, but if anyone was gonna win it late on, it was Rayo. Joan García superb. Few Qs for Flick to ponder over the int. break. Still, 7/9 points from away games not end of the world.
Josh (@saltedjosh.bsky.social)
that was just ugly, chaotic football not as heinous as getafe, but only marginally better
Josh (@saltedjosh.bsky.social)
Former Rayo Vallecano keeper Kasey Keller on the broadcast saying the club's role in Spain is to play shitty, ugly football on an ass pitch. He thought he was being complimentary.
Josh (@saltedjosh.bsky.social) reply parent
They didn't say on my broadcast here. I think that Lamine pen would have been called back. It was pure chaos out there.
Josh (@saltedjosh.bsky.social)
why is there no var? no room for the camera setups on the children's sized pitch alongside the plastic chairs that are three inches from the field of play?

Covid has killed upwards of 20 million people. 400 million suffer from Long COVID. It’s not over and is still causing serious harm. RFK Jr and Trump plan to ban the Covid vaccine in the US. Get your boosters now. Stock up on N95 masks & hepa filters. Protect each other!

I’ve had this cookbook for years. Like most cookbooks, I’ve only made a few recipes. But I had good homegrown tomatoes so I made the tomato salad. It made me happy because it was goddamn delicious. It made me sad because Anthony has left us and the void from his absence has never been filled.

I said this months ago but I really need a BLUE STATE COMPACT IMMEDIATELY. Bring together all health depts, all education depts, etc... under one umbrella. Collectivize guidance, ensure that disabled students get what they need, etc... An emergency meeting of all Blue State Governors is overdue.

A progressive Democrat flipped a staunchly Republican seat in *Iowa*— won it by 10 points, in fact— by running *As A Progressive* focusing on issues of education, and making housing, child care, and health care affordable. Stop running to the right. Stay left, and fight.

You‘d think the centrists and establishment people would all be going apeshit for Pritzker because they’re always looking for a new John D Rockefeller but I get the sense that they haven’t thrown in with him because he’s a little fight-y and not obsessed with bipartisanship

My contention about a hot civil war is that we have been living in one for decades at this point, I would say since 1982, but very slow moving. What do you think all those mass shootings are actually about? Look who is mostly perpetuating them (white males) and what they target (public institutions)
