Just amazing

I still can not believe that the Bears won that game. Literally unbelievable.

Disrespectful and insulting.

According to Donald Trump, nursing isn't a professional degree.

The bottom line? The entire nation, including Illinois, needs more nurses — this decision makes it even harder than ever for them to get the support they need.
Trump Administration Moves to Exclude Nursing From Professional Degrees, Set New Student Loan Limits
The proposal has drawn pushback from the nursing community, which argues the reclassification could limit students’ financial access to advanced nursing degrees.

Nothing like doing a little light aluminum machining in the garage for a Christmas gift when it’s 20 degrees outside.

Donald Trump just removed Martin Luther King Jr. Day and Juneteenth from the list of free entry days at national parks.

They are being replaced with Trump’s birthday.

Super Bowl Shuffle documentary on HBO was ok. Had higher hopes than what was ultimately delivered. 5 out of 10.

Fourth and one with multiple timeouts, why not use one and get the play call correct? Ah well, I’m happier #GB messed up and hoping for the loss.

Due to the @ign.com podcast NVC with @brianaltano.bsky.social @loganjplant.bsky.social and Seth (sorry, couldn’t find your user) I have now played Ball X Pit on gamepass and after a “lost” hour, I needed to stop progress there and buy it on my Switch 2.

Not a White Sox fan but I am going to have to buy something from their High-A affiliate. What an awesome alternate.

The AL's representative in the World Series will either be the Tigers (haven't been since 2012), Blue Jays (haven't been since 1993), or the Mariners (have never played in a World Series).

Cubs beat the Brewers, 4-3, to force Game 4 tomorrow night at Wrigley.

If the Phillies get swept in LA, first pitch will be 6:08 p.m. If Phillies win tonight, Cubs-Brewers Game 4 will be at 8:08 p.m.

Do the Cubs know they can score in more than just one inning?

I will not back down.

Trump is now calling for the arrest of elected representatives checking his power.

What else is left on the path to full-blown authoritarianism?
October 8, 2025 at 1:44 PM
That might be it for me tonight. Can’t stand this lack of pitching.

Are the Cubs allowed to score more than 3 runs a game in the postseason? I see other teams can.
October 7, 2025 at 2:35 AM
Is the season over? Come on Cubs, what is going on in games 1 & 2?
October 7, 2025 at 2:14 AM
The Cubs game is on HBO Max, but apparently I don’t have the right kind of HBO for the love games? I didn’t know this was even a thing.
