my wife is a Cal fan and apparently this week they’re putting a “59” on their football helmets to honor the 59 Nobel laureates tied to Cal in order to flex on Duke

this is maybe my favorite dunk anyone has ever done on Duke

the post office is a public service. it doesn’t need to make money. public transit doesn’t need to make money. the library doesn’t need to make money. some things exist for the public good and we desperately need lawmakers to stop thinking about them in terms of capitalism. these are not businesses.

And not to be dramatic, but it’s never a bad thing to have a non-abstract sense of the murderous lengths American corporate and governmental power structures will go to in order protect themselves. None of this is ancient history.

This Michigan team is also not very good.

I think I’d be fine if Michigan came out for the second and kneeled it out until the final whistle. Would certainly fit their level of interest in winning this game.

It also might be the most "Trump's brain still lives in the 1990s" of announcements, too, because I'm sure he found out the Space Force HQ was in Colorado and was like "wait, why isn't it at Space Camp?"

"We're absolutely American and distinctly so, I think. That's part of what people respond to outside of this country, part of the reason that we're such a huge band outside of the U.S., where we're not so popular now as we were 10 or 12 years ago."

Once again calling for the MLBPA to designate this day as Curt Flood Day. And a shout-out to all unions, including my local CUPE. Workers unite.
