if you banned the phrases "stay within himself" and "not try to do too much" 63% of all sports analysis would disappear

I said it somewhere earlier but it's hard to feel more like an alcoholic than when you rip the box open to squeeze the last glass out of that bag

(the last two are the slosher and the squeezer)

I'm not exactly proud of this...ok yes I am...but I can pick up the box and know exactly how many more glasses are in there

I had to leave bc Ozzy was a bit overstimulated and started barking at the legions of people trying to pet him

Right-wingers discovering the politics of RATM will never, ever be not funny to me

seems like a non-insignificant percentage of rage against the machine's fanbase are young republican men driving SUVs bopping their head to anti-oil, pro-immigrant songs thinking the lyrics are about how they wish their suburban parents would get off their back

Tom Morello tweets: "Fascinating that all those “don’t tread on me” posers and their AR-15’s are nowhere to be seen and government tyranny is instead being opposed by a guy in an inflatable frog suit."

Someone named Manny replies: "@grok
why do some people say Tom Morello and band mates are RAGE FOR THE MACHINE and not against ?"

Ozzy was the most popular Good Boy at the festival and so many people wanted to pet him that his need for affection deeply conflicted with his annoyance that humans exist

Mike B @madhominem.bsky.social · 21h

I'm gearing up to explain 200 times what kind of dog Ozzy is and yes, you can pet him and yes, he does eat quite a bit

any Atlanta peeps heading to PorchFest in Oakhurst today? Easily one of my favorite festivals of the year

people keep saying "oh blackmail, obviously" but I'm guessing if you try to blackmail a president you just get disappeared

and if a foreign power has them, you destroy what you have and claim it's all fabricated

I want it to be incriminating but I still find it amazing that there would be

a) a box of wildly incriminating documents or photos, that

b) powerful people have seen and know about, but

c) we have to say the right magic words before any of it can be used, even though everyone knows it's there
