Today is the anniversary of the British evacuating New York City after the end of the Revolutionary War. Here's how I learned about it: the piece that introduced me to the terrific work of @bencarp.bsky.social

No, what’s stupid is thinking “bowitdabowdabangdabangbittybittychowackdabingdabowdowdabitty” is a song lyric, and also you’re a rich kid cosplaying as a hillbilly go back to your gated community, Robert

Oakland A's outfielder Joe Rudi makes a great catch against the wall to rob Cincinnati Reds batter Denis Menke of a hit in Game 2 of the 1972 World Series! Happy 79th Birthday Joe! #MLB #Baseball #History #Athletics
