My sympathies to the biggest Philadelphia Phillies fans I know: Joe Biden, Samuel Alito, and Benjamin Netanyahu. I’ll see you in Valhalla.

Well that was the least satisfying ending to a baseball game I've ever seen.

Wow man, should have put a bible verse on your hat that forbids giving up a ton of runs.

Chi was my council member the last few years I lived in Brooklyn. I knew this not because I was in DSA or paid particularly close attention to local races, but because he was everywhere. I would go running on a Saturday morning around Bed-Stuy and he'd be out there picking up trash.

This is exactly what we need. This is it.

"New York City Council member Chi Ossé, a close ally of Zohran Mamdani, is privately discussing a run against House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.)"

Scoop: Mamdani ally weighs challenging Hakeem Jeffries

Just talking about a potential campaign could drive a further wedge between Mamdani — the democratic socialist in line to be New York's next mayor — and Rep. Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.)

Same, I don't think I made the connection to Husker Du until years later.

I borrowed this cd from the Middletown Township Public Library when I was 13 and put a Silverchair disc in the case when I returned it.

Also I saw Texas is the Reason cover "Changes" with Ted Leo this weekend and it was very cool. Weird sentence to type.

as someone who has played air drums to “Gee Angel” until my arms got tired, I endorse this

Is Bob Mould reforming Sugar with original lineup?

There's been no official word, but the Sugar instagram account is followed by the band's Bob Mould, David Barbe, and Malcolm Travis.

Hitting a home run that lands on a windshield in the parking lot is effectively a declaration of war in Los Angeles.

From this same episode I continually go back to "Bart, I don't mean to alarm you, but there may be a boogeyman or boogeymen in the house"

From the gate we can rule out that this is about the grindcore band from Syracuse.

I am watching the Ryan Murphy Ed Gein show so you don't have to.

Every few months I dip into the Chipotle reddit which is one of the more insane online communities I have ever seen. A forum of people who believe there is a secret hack to getting the bowl from the commercial.

Just overheard in a bar:

"The guitar player from Limp Bizkit was here a few months ago. No no, not Munky, that's the guy from Korn."

I watched First Reformed yesterday and my god.

One Battle After Another has been getting a lot of “best movie of the decade” talk, and I’m inclined to agree but I’m curious — what’s the competition?

The 2004 ALCS is now ruined for David Portnoy, he won't even talk to a woman who was alive for it.

This is a weird thing but with my team eliminated I'm just watching playoff baseball as a dude who likes baseball, and it's really fun.

Everyone should have to see Ink & Dagger the way I saw them (at Party Xpo at 3 AM on a weeknight)

The only crime the man was ever guilty of besides federal tax fraud and somehow being interior minister of Iraq for 6 months in 2003 was loving the boys in pinstripes. Re2pect.
