(of note: i believe he is the only cis candidate for office to have trans people consult on his lgtbq+ policy platform)

UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera

In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion.

As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.

Are Sox fans the happiest AL Central fanbase at the moment?

Why don’t they make all the playoffs out of Tigers-Mariners?

AJ is terrified of Josh Naylor. Spoken like a true Sox fan.

I still vividly remember the water torture that was game 3 in 2020 vs Oakland

While I want the Sox to be good again, playoff baseball is so much fun when you don’t care who wins.

It's a beautiful fall day and schools all over Chicago are having indoor recess. And it's for exactly the reason you think.

@govpritzker.illinois.gov what the fuck are you doing to protect Chicagoans right now besides issue statements to the press?

Right now Chicagoans are being arrested all over the city by foreign occupying forces.

Professional athletes are so good because it feels super rare to see any of them panic like Kerkering just did.

Tyrone @thetyrone.bsky.social · 1d

At least Philadelphia fans will be totally normal about this.

This is one of the rare times in Illinois politics when you could call for the governor to be jailed and be incorrect.

Gregory Pratt @royalpratt.bsky.social · 3d

The President of the United States is calling for the mayor of Chicago and governor of Illinois to be jailed.

I'm that friend who's too woke, but this isn't a LeBron conversation. It's capitalism. All superstars are boring now. LeBron, Trout, McDavid, Mahomes. Boring.

It extends to actors and musicians too.

Capitalism rewards blandness.

lebron might go down as the least interesting public figure of our lives. i can't tell if he's intentionally uninteresting or if it just comes naturally, but man that guy is boring.
