Imagining Rashida Tlaib posting this but it’s about offensive remarks towards Muslims and seeing how long it would take a bunch of magazines and Bari Weiss and Elon and Jordan Peterson to go absolutely fucking nuts and declare it to be tantamount to the destruction of the western world

Just went to Starbucks. “Small coffee, please” I said.

Apparently, the barista decided to fill my cup with urine.

I’m closely watching the first @syracuseup.bsky.social hoops game against Georgetown of the Coach Autry Era.

It was about time we ditched the zone. Not missing it at all.

Ok - doing an official Elf Census.

How many times has it been on in your house so far this year since Halloween?

For my family, it’s been the Feature Presentation in the living room twice, possibly three times.

Background noise for various chores and the kids’ nightly wind down a million.

Debate question for Raleigh, NC drinkers only:

What’s better, Mitch’s or the PR?

Scherzer not pitching his best. But the guys behind him are putting on a defensive clinic.

Bubba Burger with bacon, pickle, and highly processed American cheese.

Cooked in butter and bacon grease on a cast iron pan.

Delicious.

@kevinmlevin.bsky.social Do you ever have your students play NYT Flashback? Seems to me this could be a beneficial exercise…

Getting dueling “if you talk about anything but the terrorist murder of innocents, you’re an anti-Semite” vs. “if you talk about anything but the suffering of oppressed Palestinians you’re a racist colonist” and quite frankly I invite these folks to fuck right off.

Reminder that the Speaker of the House does not actually have to be a member of the House of Representatives

Jim Jordan is even stupider than Kevin was, is the thing. A Jordan speakership could be derailed by weeks of hearings into who took his nose. Votes will be missed because his shoelaces got tied to each other. A disaster for America.

I’ll always be a little bitter about the way Bryce Harper left my Nationals. Although, I began to let some bitterness go when Nats won the World Series without him.

And I think anyone who watches baseball has to acknowledge that the dude plays the game the way it should be played.

With McCarthy dead politically and Feinstein dead actually, is this the best week ever for California politicians or the worst?

Today is the favorite day of the year for truckers and CB radio enthusiasts.

Sure, Kevin McCarthy may have humiliated himself for Trump. Yes, it took him 15 tries to become Speaker. And, of course, he had to beg the dumbest, most racist people in Congress to vote for him. But on the bright side, he ended up with absolutely nothing.
