A man who has declared war on American cities is not deserving of the Nobel Peace Prize.

Mentally, they stay small market in the playoffs. They have the physical ability. But they shrink mentally.

R_Franks @rfranks.bsky.social · 1d

This baseball team doesn’t have the mental fortitude, I fear.

R_Franks @rfranks.bsky.social · 1d

Didn’t have it tonight. The sCrUBS can’t win a title. Send them packing in game 5 and compound the big market pain, Brewers.

R_Franks @rfranks.bsky.social · 1d

Cubs aren’t a better team. Get it together mentally, Brewers.

WI teams don’t carry their mental “FU we good” regular season into the playoffs, sadly. Not sure why.

MESSAGE TO THE BREWERS: you don’t have to give up a game’s worth of runs on the first inning in the playoffs. It’s not the law.

We’ll grant you a one-day reprieve!

R_Franks @rfranks.bsky.social · 3d

Yup.

So the American taxpayer eats it twice, once on tariffs and again on a second farm bailout. I’m glad farmers are getting help, no one should lose their farm, but it’s remarkable how fast “socialism” stops being a dirty word when the checks clear in red counties.

Hopefully our pash rush can manage to get to the ancient, immobile statue this time.

The guy who literally incited an insurrection is now threatening to use the Insurrection Act to torment Americans who do not support him.

(…because he literally incited an insurrection)

R_Franks @rfranks.bsky.social · 4d

Dude - get a new act.

Says the asshole who tried to submit fake electors from his state.

Make this bald ghoul watch the entirety of Jan. 6th in real-time, Clockwork Orange style.

R_Franks @rfranks.bsky.social · 5d

True, but moves like this are being made to gain and solidify holds over the the non-nuts. Older swing voters, centrists, etc.

look ai is completely destroying the world with massive pollution and is using up water at a concerning rate but at least you get to use technology that lies to you and is the primary propaganda mechanism by fascists

Isn’t it terrific that everyone in that footage is paid a salary by us, fed with our money, receives healthcare thanks to us, and will have pensions paid by us? Just great.

I’m a big fan of the @kanopy.com streaming app. Use your library services!

R_Franks @rfranks.bsky.social · 6d

10 more games just like that, @milwaukeebrewers.bsky.social

R_Franks @rfranks.bsky.social · 7d

Huh.

R_Franks @rfranks.bsky.social · 7d

I share your dilemma.

What the fuck do you mean I got a longer prison sentence than Diddy

NEW YORK (AP) — Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs sentenced to 4 years and 2 months in prison in case involving sex workers, violence and ‘freak-offs’.

Ha - one of my favorite fictional characters in recent memory

‘Bout to purge some streaming services this weekend. I’ve been pushed too far by these vampires!
