UConn ends its regular season 10-1 and now begins its 20-game preseason. Yes it is weird that it is backward with that many preseason games but I’m not the one who built the other 10 Big East teams

Umm… what is happening in Hartford? Should some humanitarian group be on hand for this?

Runs allowed by Dodger starting pitchers this series:

Snell - 1
Yamamoto - 3
Glasnow - 3
Ohtani - 2

Sorry hang on that's *hits* allowed by Dodger starting pitchers this series.

Dodger starters also have three home runs this series, which is odd because pitchers no longer hit.

Two quick questions:
1) Are they still making Binaca?
2) How’s Sufjan Stevens doing with that ‘album for every state’ thing?

The most incredible part of the grift is coming to power when there is no chaos by campaigning on a platform of "I'm going to end the chaos," then overseeing an era of chaos he created and saying "See? We're ending the chaos."

You have no obligation to defend or explain the behavior of random street protesters. We have a lawless government that is flagrantly violating its legal, moral, even philosophical obligations to us. Everything else is secondary

Was singing “50 Ways To Leave Your Lover” in the car while driving my son to practice and realized it was like my parents singing a song from 1945 when I was 12…. Aging wasn’t supposed to happen to me! I was supposed to be special!

Howard University men’s swimming and diving team just won the Northeast Conference Championship for the second time in 3 years. They’re the only HBCU with a swimming program. This week on SPOLITICS, I do a deep dive into why that is youtu.be/m_BOqIvRS5w?...

So after arguing about it with my son for a bit, I think all Soto needed to know was summed up with this: The Yankees lasted 5 games against the Dodgers with Soto. The Mets took the Dodgers to 6 without him. As a Yankees fan, I think he might have made the right choice.

I'm in Texas and my kid told me he got 4 compliments on his UConn shirt at school today and one "Whatchuknow about those Huskies?!" by a teacher of his. It's so great when the kids are fully on board!
These kids are so indoctrinated they’re going to be demanding to stay up late to watch the games as soon as they know they play on school nights.
Oh boy you are in for shock when you find that kids are project till they turn 18 and you do not get your game watching time till then

For me, few things match parenting in its ability to be infinitely frustrating yet infinitely rewarding as well as pour-over coffee. #pourover #coffee

Since this place seems to be 60-75% book talk (not a complaint), I just finished "The Colour of Magic" (Discworld book #1) by Terry Pratchett. ⭐⭐⭐⭐

I've heard you can read most of them in any order so any recommendations on which one to read next? #bookrecs #terrypratchett #discworld

This place is cool - I might put together a Starter Pack of all the people I’ve missed since I quit the Bird app. It’s cool to see y’all again!
