I have actually not seen Mamdani give a formal speech and what I’ll say is that unlike so many of his peers he is not trying to mimic anyone in his delivery. He is simply being himself and it is very effective.

I’ve been interested in political speeches for as long as I can remember. I’ve listened to nearly every inaugural and major address, and I’ve given tons of public speeches myself.

Zohran’s talent in this arena ranks among the best. He’s damn good. Hella good. Remarkably good.

Crazy to watch.

The mailman brought a copy of an incredible Hüsker Dü release, "1985: The Miracle Year," for which I wrote liner notes. This 4LP/2CD set from Numero Group comes out Friday. You can hit the Numero site or your local record retailer to get yours: numerogroup.com/products/198...

Q: It's election day in NYC. Did you vote for Mamdani or Cuomo?

Schumer: "Look, I voted, and I look forward to working with the next mayor to help NYC."

My dad took me to this game when I was 8. Core memory. First game of the 94-95 season. Rex was awesome.

November 4, 1994: Washington's Rex Chapman beats Orlando with a 20-footer at the buzzer.

Chapman finished with 21 PTS, Tom Gugliotta had 24 PTS/11 REB/3 STL and Calbert Cheaney scored 20 PTS in the Bullets' 110-108 win. Shaquille O'Neal had 28 PTS/12 REB/2 BLK to lead the Magic.

College basketball finally returns today😃

Bluesky's CBB activity is FAR too low, but I'll keep posting here all the same. Here's a big Starter Pack I created about a year ago. Share it! If there are accounts posting about ball near-daily that should be added, let me know and I'll share tonight.

Are you people fucking kidding me with this shit @washingtonpost.com www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

At the same time, there are legitimate debates about the best ways to feed the needy, how many should qualify and how much they should get. In the 1970s, 1 in 50
Americans received food stamps. Now, 1 in 8 do. On average, these households get $322 a month. Are 42 million Americans really in such danger of suffering malnutrition that the federal government should spend about $100 billion every year

Certainly, many need the help. The American Enterprise Institute's Kevin Corinth estimates that 2.9 million individuals willbe pushed into poverty if SNAP benefits are not paid in November, including 1.1 million children, 1.3 million working-age adults and about 500,000 seniors.
But no one should aspire for large segments of the population to depend on government handouts. The program could certainly be designed better to not discourage work.
Ultimately, the best way to help over the long run is to grow the economy, which leads to job creation and rising wages.

Went to early vote this morning. Here’s me running away when a transphobic grandma tried to talk to me about bathrooms on my way into the polling place.

Last time ODU won 6+ games was 2016. Today's performance is frustrating and on par for the last decade.

The Rahne era should be over and Wood Selig should've been out years ago. You moved up to FBS, so commit to having a good product instead of selling mediocrity as success.

I love The Sophtware Slump, but #Grandaddy playing it in whole felt pretty clinical. They sounded great, but I definitely enjoyed the second set of assorted songs more.
