I'm shocked that a guy who tried to iron his shirt while he was wearing it would be a dope.

Whenever John Schmaltz weighs in with his Dr. Baseball persona please remember he’s anti-vax. Maybe contracting Covid amplified his compulsion to be a blowhard. Also he was a pitcher. He knows very little about hitting and it shows. He’s a major league asshole!

We have successfully evolved from creatures who didn’t have opposable thumbs to become creatures that have developed the greatest technology the world has ever seen, such that now, we use ONLY our opposable thumbs!

I kind of can’t believe this Bari Weiss quote is even real, and yet www.nytimes.com/2025/10/06/b...

“I know that there are some people in this room who don’t believe that my marriage should have been legal … and that’s ok. Because we’re all Americans who want lower taxes.”

Exclusive | CBS News taps Adam Rubenstein — once ostracized at NY Times for liking Chick-fil-A — as new deputy editor

If you ever wondered what Republican “governance” looks like, this is it.

A government shutdown.
Federal workers who don’t get paid.
A President who golfs during a shutdown.
National guards and ICE deployed to attack and arrest Americans.
Millions of Americans losing their healthcare.
