Dominican Republic -- dancing, hugging, whomping baseballs

Italy -- chugging espresso, kissing, whomping baseballs

United States -- gritting teeth, thinking about the troops, leaving runners in scoring position

I think there are three people, max, whom I'd pay more than $60 to see in a show. (Monae, Isbell, ???)

Last night I overheard someone laughing about a friend who paid $400 to sit in the nosebleeds somewhere. Seems like people are treating live music like clubbing and purchasing bottle service.

No joke, I think this might be one of the most important roles for tech-savvy Millennials/Gen Xers.

We caught a glimpse of an amazing world, one that was almost entirely free of corporate or political influence because the suits hadn’t caught on yet. We could talk with ANYONE in an age of landlines

Opera, espresso, fancy jacket, little kisses - Team Italy is winning because they've embraced a philosophy of nice treats.

Text message exchange about Aaron Nola playing for Italy. The second text says β€œthey gave him citizenship after all the juicy fuckin meatballs he served up the last two seasons”

devising a new social media platform where you get three energy to spend every turn, posts can attack or defend, and the goal of the platform is slightly more obviously about defeating other commenters than here

In my U.S. Civil Rights Movements class, we spend a lot of time thinking about historical memory. When movements get reduced to a few iconic leaders, the collective labor that made change possible disappears from view. It also obscures an important lesson: collective action is effective & difficult.

There is literally no way to find a real life fox that attractive and that’s sort of the dealbreaker for folks, most real life foxes just want to eat chickens and not be sexy

REVIEW: Even from the opening fiddle bars, American Seams, the fifth studio album from Rose's Pawn Shop, speaks directly to the moment. The band's blend of '90s rock and alt-country is refreshing and timeless

TWIBS: Kansas Lawmakers Send Me Into Apoplectic Rage β€” Assigned Aly Gibbs screams into the void at the Kansas state legislature, which is evil and must be dismantled brick by brick, for stealing trans people’s licenses.

"Everywhere that trans people can exist, we must exist, loudly and in opposition to these rabid ghouls who want to see us eradicated."

@alyssaur.bsky.social isn't giving in to despair, and you shouldn't either.

I keep reminding people that admins hate English departments because they are popular (read: inefficient), not because they aren’t. AI is in a long line of technologies that promise to solve that problem for them.
