truth. liberal arts. sisu. the constitution. family. coffee. sobriety and silliness in equal measure, because what good is being serious all the time when the world is collapsing?

M&A activity in industrial tech was booming leading up to and after the Infrastructure Act. Talk about reshoring manufacturing was real and abundant. Blue collar meets high-tech, everybody wins kinda stuff. Tronald’s retrograde, petulent horsecrap singlehandedly nuked the entire enterprise.
He sounds *horrible*. And not the typical horrible we've all come to know and hate, but like he's on his way out.
It’s almost like this should have never happened in the first place. Huh.
You just hate to see it
Reburial of the fallen soldier is a textbook fascist tactic. Edmund Burke got thrown off the GOP bus so long ago, one has to wonder if he was ever on it in the first place.
"Depth" is what they say when there's quantity over quality. The bullpen is a potential issue, whether anyone wants to admit it or not is another matter.
An old Brewers bad habit cropping up at a bad time: Too deferential to players to gauge health. Megill hadn't had a clean inning in almost two weeks (five appearances) and batters were all over his stuff more than they had been all season. He'd also been outperforming FIP and SIERA all year. ⏲️
"...[A] superintendent in Walker County, Alabama, said." ...you mean Dr. Dennis Willingham, *the* Board of Education Superintendent? Copy desks matter, people.
This is no longer authoritarian. This is aspiring totalitarianism, and it must be addressed before we are no longer able to.
"[H]omophobic Pontiac Aztek" has me in tears. Close it down, Bluesky. It's not getting better than this.
Jake Miz needs to stop tipping pitches and then he'll level up to his advanced form.
I don't ce the point in such a swift and context-less skeet
These cabinet meetings are an embarrassment. We need a constitutional amendment outlawing fluffing the president. Bloated face. Bruised hand. Severe ankle edema. Memento mori.
...The Aristocrats!
Discovery for Tronald’s records should be fun
Conservatives and Evangelicals ***HOWLED*** about these prospective abuses of power with Clinton. I distinctly remember radio and pulpits in the 90s sounding full five-alarm fury about Bill Clinton precisely over these kinds of attacks.
I mean, there is that bloated mass in the Oval Office, but ok
Thinking of all the tributes over the weekend and, somewhere, there's a Peter Guaralnick-on-Elvis level bio on Uecker begging to be written. So much tragedy, comedy and fairy tale (to borrow from Buechner) in one life.
Tronald is attempting to fire a Black woman from the Fed under the pretense of mortgage fraud (unsubstantiated, natch). The same douchecanoe he was 50 years ago, just with some seriously advanced neurosyphilis.
New Baseballism logo just dropped
Trump is a criminal and a seditious conspiracist, but nothing was proven. Wait, those things *were* proven.
In other words: L’etat, c’est moi.
They still have the ‘82 pennant. Surely VV is tucked away next to Ueck’s leftover stash of Salems and Miller Lite and the recipe for Secret Stadium Sauce.
The intern from Young America’s Foundation must’ve had to go back for fall semester. Meet the new social media content associate for NPR: ChatGPT.
C’mon, people. Be better than this. “Hide yo kids, hide yo couch” is right there for the taking.
“Was slavery really that bad?” asked the rotting fleshsac who routinely had underage ‘spa workers’ and palled around with a dude who had his own particular triangular trade going on.
(I know LoD was mentioned, but it’s Playmakers’ plausible deniability in 2003 that really tells the story.)
If I recall correctly, the NFL also threatened to pull out of deals in response to Playmakers (canceled) and League of Denial (joint ESPN-PBS work with ESPN largely scrubbed from the final edit). This is business as usual.
@jrradcliffe.bsky.social
That’s some serious ChatGPT bullcrap.
The Gelded Age, perhaps.
Ran to the store this morning to get some donuts and coffee for a busy weekend here at soon-to-be former Chateau Sirvio. I’ve never seen the deep discount meat and bakery sections so full, and not just premium cuts: ground beef, sausages, traditional budget items. Consumers are at their limits. 😬
I understand this, truly, and it still frustrates me.
If only someone had been thinking about this for more than a while and wrote it up this week! The pennant is a huge help. open.substack.com/pub/brentsir...
Leaders lead.
I’m so sick of hearing about ‘deals.’ I refuse to play his cheap word games. Wish the press would do the same.
What’s the point of bringing that butcher to American soil if not to negotiate terms of a ceasefire? Safe guess, this was never about Ukraine.

Another Brewers-Reds series in Cincinnati, another Yeli cycle watch Nbd.
The real hero of the summit? Whoever set up the lighting.
Tronald clearly pulling a Markwayne Mullin at the afterglow presser.
Cuz I've drafted quarterbacks like that before, wasted a pretty penny, I don't mind tellin' ya!
I had ‘Duval Dachau,’ but this is spot on.
It’s been depressing to see the country descend into a gilded Family Dollar lorded over by the biggest weenie of a strongman. It hasn’t been depressing to see Chris Yelich at long last settle into an impact role on the best team in baseball**. It is bittersweet, knowing what might have been.
A military takeover is called a coup. A coup in this suggested manner is sedition and insurrection. If allowed to continue, this the end of federalism.
It’s Saturday >>>> that one song
They could have made 43 arrests just in the White House complex and called it a night.
700 federal agents and police officers patrolling a supposed crime-infested hellhole of 700,000 people? And only 43 arrests to show for it?
Pictured: An MLM supps bro, or the person in charge of reviewing and compiling accurate national labor figures?
I think they changed over in the franchise fight.
“Then they closed down in Appleton and it became a little diner.” Copy editor time: He’s being semi-formal; it’s actually called Little Diner Xpress. Still has the two clocks, the soup board is covered over but the outline betrays it, and I’m pretty sure the GW stained glass is behind an aquarium.
LET WOODRUFF BAT YOU COWARDS
With Dennis Santana, we’re officially into the Dynasty Mode CPU-generated player portion of the Pirates bullpen.
I don’t know what Pittsburgh did to deserve Bob Nutting, but this is hard to watch even as a Brewers fan.
He scrolled X while taking an Ivermectin-induced dump. Talk about chemtrails.
Nez Balelo, man. Literally nothing good happens when he’s around.
The crappy guy I trusted who recommended this crappy guy I nominated, it's HIS fault! Talk about an own goal.
June Carter thinks that hair is a bit much.
Do people still win the internet?
If you ever want a restaurant order to get screwed up, order online from anywhere on Calumet St. in Darboy, WI. Literally anywhere. Nine years of receipts here to back it up. This is the Bermuda Triangle of food accuracy.
To be fair, he is faithfully executing the office, middle of Fifth Avenue style.
Razor wire?
When you realize the brains that weren’t very sharp to begin with with have turned to turned tapioca
BREAKING: Trump gives DC homeless to nice farm family in the country
I always thought that it was just a word trick, that MAGA just meant 'Make Trump Great Again.' It's clear now that in his neurosyphilitic/stroke/dementia-induced mania, he believes *he* is the country. This is why we have a 25th amendment, and why his handlers made sure no one would dare use it.
If Trump has a totalitarian corollary, it’s Ceaușescu.

“We will give you places to stay” Is this government-subsidized housing, or a concentration camp? So conservative.
Picture of health.
Lawfare, friend. Lawfare.
Legal…insurrection…warfare…law…war… If there were only a pithy portmanteau that could explain using legal tactics to undermine the Constitutional order and rule of law. That would be nice.
Looks like we’re getting invaded by bots here. Seeing a bunch of accounts with duck dns dot org handles all following a similar LLM template. Can’t wait for them to flip a switch and go full MAGAtrollbot in a year as the midterms approach.
Bonus points for the degree of difficulty dealing with Mark burning the checkbook.
If Matt Arnold isn’t Executive of the Year for turning a bad, injured Brewers roster into *this* in-season, there’s no point in having the award.
In fairness, that assumes anyone even bothers to click.
Headline thinking led directly to the SEOification of media, worsening the epistemic problem.
Having a PhD is only indicative of a person’s willingness to endure scholastic hazing anymore.
Poor Mikhail. There’s really only one reason you can’t be a grown-ass adult and not have a bank account.

Are the Brewers inadvertently wearing 2024 gear tonight? Looks like Vapor material, top and pants.
Enstatufication.
I found single servs of Robinade at LaClare Creamery north of Fond du Lac a few weeks ago. My one girl who loves the stuff was as awestruck as I was. We thought it was dead!
Having said that, it should also be made clear that there were many XA chapters that were more judicious in who they allowed in and around those operations. But the Assemblies always, ALWAYS prioritized “doctrinal purity” over allegations of misconduct, going all the way back to EN Bell.
I can also say with a level of personal knowledge that the US Missions-regional district model allows for creeps to sneak in between the cracks in bureaucratic oversight. Texas was viewed as rockstars in my time. Lack of interest in investigating misconduct is as much omission as commission.
Holy crap. This story has been around for a while, especially in XA alumni circles; surfacing at NBC News as part of a larger expose of misconduct in the AG is A Thing. Former AG adherent, Chi Alpha alum and intern here. If NBC wants more, peek into the AG college system.
Self-directed IRAs already allow for this. Not everybody should be in those plays. Yikes.
Another attempt to pry the 14th amendment out of the Constitution.
First, they enshittified the call centers, but I did not speak up because I was waiting for the next available representative
The way she slurs "young people" isn't even a dog whistle. It's full-on-aggro-coachbro-blowing-the-whistle-directly-in-your-ear-during-two-a-days.
Just another Ep-stain on the GOP's legacy.
I like that they used the shot where his face looks most like a nutsac for this piece.
Does Tronald still have Scott’s sac from the 2016 debates? A total embarrassment.
I believe you misspelled 'Spineless Coward.'
