my man, there are married dads who were born in the year 2006
3. Only music before circa 1986 is dad rock
Furtcast was discussing what constitutes Dad Rock and I came up with two criteria:
1. Debut single was 25 years ago
2. The Linkin Park Line, in which bands that are more rap or metal than LP cannot be Dad Rock, but bands that are less metal and rap than LP are eligible for consideration

There is actually a cool event at this ski jump next weekend where local amateurs have a go one day, then pros the next. Obviously doesn’t attract top pros in an Olympic year, but in off years Olympians occasionally show up.
Jump it, you coward

First ascent of the year felt pretty good. Wish I could do stair reps but they’re very much covered in ice.

I remain unconcerned about this discourse because he's gonna bomb in Iowa vs. Bashear, Pritzker, Shapiro, AOC
i think most (not all) of the "you must vote for Newsom" people are just Newsom supporters who want him to win because they like him and his policies, not because they have high minded ideas about harm reduction.

Interesting to me that as football, and especially English football, is increasingly physicalspilled, Boro are top of the table with two scrawny CMs who are Barca quality on the ball
The wheels came off the Coventry = Bayern wagon back in December. That's why Boro managed to catch them.
Can it be repaired or will Boro and Ipswich end up as the two automatic promotion teams?

The commentators are doing a good job of making it interesting by explaining optimal/record lap splits!
the 10,000m speed-skating might be the least viewer-friendly sport at the Olympics
these two guys are going to skate, by themselves, for 13-14 minutes
then when they're done, two more guys will skate, by themselves, for 13-14 minutes
then when they're done...

Utterly baffling that Lange is still allowed to be a part of any process
🚨 Tottenham Hotspur reach verbal agreement with Igor Tudor to become interim head coach. 47yo Croatian set to sign #THFC contract to end of season; no permanent option. Arrives with big-club experience. Process led by Venkatesham & Lange 🚨 @theathleticfc.bsky.social

It's not a new observation at this point but that wild Noem/Lewandowski story in WSJ really brings home the extent to which all the Trump 2 cabinet-level goblins see their jobs as flying private, doing short-form video, and screaming at underlings. They all hate each other and none of them can read.

Subway Builder 1.0 finally launched and there was a city data update today, so rebuilding Milwaukee after my last one had some stuff break during the beta.
Excited to see how much commuter rail and local streetcars can juice the ridership.

The number of American citizens of voting age who watch Hasan Piker content on a regular basis is ~100k. He is just a guy who says shit and has enough subscribers to buy a nice house. If you think he's a dickhead you can just ignore him. His takes are not a thing We Need To Talk About every day.
