Blogger turned podcaster turned producer turned media mogul. I’m busy that day. Section1904.com
Had to cut myself out of this video because I was cackling and it was distracting.
"Why broker peace when you can monetize it?" Karim Zidan jokingly came up with the idea for The Peace Cup and FIFA maybe took him literally.

They're not even trying to appear nonpartisan anymore.
#BREAKING: Over dissents from the three democratic appointees, #SCOTUS puts Texas's new House maps back into effect for (and, presumably, through) the 2026 midterms.

The three Democratic appointees, in an opinion by Justice Kagan, dissent.

I'll post the ruling shortly.

You'll know how busy my day is today by whether or not I find time to write a blog post titled "Cooper Flagg is awesome".

I am probably wrong about this. In fact, I hope I’m wrong about this!

Everything about our current reality would’ve been considered hack sci-fi writing in 2015 but the Donald J. Trump Institute for Peace is next level
SCOOP: Sources tell me Donald Trump's name was added to the exterior of the US Institute of Peace building ahead of Thursday's peace agreement signing between Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), which will be held inside the building. Confirming if it's been officially renamed.

If I ever write a book that requires some sort of publicity tour, I promise not to do the thing where I answer every question with variations of "Actually, I wrote about that in the book and people should read it."

there are 136 fbs schools, which means close to 300 coordinators. we’re supposed to believe there isn’t a single non-white coach that’s worthy of this list? foh.

I installed an ebook reader on my phone and have been opening that instead of social media apps every time my mutant brain reaches for the device. I've been happier as a result.

Do with that information whatever you'd like.

The democratic party has lost its way. We're too beholden to coastal elites and out of touch with what real americans need, which is detailed, graphic torture fantasies, presented by the most repellent lunatics you've ever seen as though they're simple common sense
Megyn Kelly on alleged war crimes: "I really do kind of not only wanna see them killed in the water, whether they're on the boat or in the water, but I'd really like to see them suffer. I would like Trump and Hegseth to make it last a long time so they lose a limb and bleed out."

We'll see how SDFC handles the Chucky situation this offseason.

Also, what ever happened to the extensions for A.J. Preller (Padres) and Sean Lewis (Aztecs)?

I know it's too easy to grow numb to the constant flood of bigotry that comes out of his mouth but it does seem morally important you don't allow yourself or anyone else to become desensitized to this vile racism as a normal part of our politics
Trump on Somalis: "We're gonna go the wrong way if we keep taking in garbage into our country. Ilhan Omar is garbage. She's garbage. Her friends are garbage."

So I don’t need to pay the new, much higher, bills then?
Q: You talk about affordability. Are the American people getting impatient with the reforms you're making?

TRUMP: I think they're getting fake news from guys like you. Look, affordability is a hoax that was started by Democrats.

The big news wasn't that Chucky is happy here. It was that Tyler Heaps' take was basically "If someone wants to make us an offer, we'll consider it."

But that's harder to fit into a title without making it sound like they're shopping Chucky. Trust me, I tried.

Not a podcast about hats. Although we may need to do an episode on hats. We're definitely a pro-hat podcast.
What does the future hold for Hirving "Chucky" Lozano and San Diego FC?

Today's Section 1904 podcast was both a good recap of Saturday's SDFC loss to Vancouver and a good look ahead to some of the offseason questions SDFC now has to answer.

We'll get to everything else later.
