It’s so generous of Fox News to help their older viewers try to understand why their adult children might have cut ties with them. Many people are saying that the host of this segment will be wearing a hot dog suit for some strange reason.
Peggy Flanagan: "Donald Trump has cost our state far too much already. And we're not about to give Donald Trump another loyal soldier like Michele Tafoya to take his orders and do his bidding. Michele Tafoya was all in with Trump when ICE was terrorizing our neighbors."
Peggy Flanagan, a citizen of the White Earth Nation, would make history as the first Native American woman to serve in the U.S. Senate if elected. Her name in Ojibwe is Gizhiiwewidamikwe — “speaks in a loud and clear voice woman.” minnesotareformer.com/2026/08/11/p...

Y'all see any of these Michael Jackson religious psychosis people online?
The "woke 1" discourse is absolutely awful over on Twitter. It's to the point where accounts are trying to blame stuff that Mike Cernovich did on "woke." That's just not accurate, my dudes.
I get what people mean when they say shift like “woke 1 was crazy” but they’re kind of opening a window for people to criticize actual woke 1, which was Ferguson and metoo
If the WNBA doesn't want to be a diversion they need more murders, suicides, gambling issues, or sexual assault stories like real pro leagues. Those stories only get headline news for a day or two in mens pro leagues for some reason. If only there was an industry tailored to frame stories...
The Athletic@theathletic.com · yesterdaySports are supposed to be a diversion, something we consider fun, a reprieve from real life. But the constant cycle of WNBA controversies has made it feel like psychological warfare just to engage with the league: nyti.ms/4gp53HA
Now's as good of a time as any to reiterate that I have never seen anyone in a mainstream newspaper or magazine write about how Mamdani, El Sayed and Hamawy are representing positive masculinity.
Abdul El-Sayed@abdulelsayed.bsky.social · 2d agoDon't get me wrong, I lift every morning. But being a man is not really about how you show up in the gym. It's how you show up for your family. It's about how you show up for your community.
There's so much psychotic shit in this story about Max Miller, but this part of his origin story might be the weirdest
![Trump quickly came to see Miller almost as a surrogate son, in large part due to his innate talent for knowing just what nostalgic show tune at what precise moment—“Memory” from Cats, for example—would succeed at talking Trump off the ledge of an incipient meltdown. In those days, senior White House staffers would summon Trump’s “Music Man” when the president became grouchy, “so [Miller] could check on the order of the songs.”](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:cnpe7qvcyjrhm6w7w7e4atur/bafkreib5523cpqx2tdokvlcnvg4iobciskmhwdugkd43cvzmyo35ppckqe)
Sir O.D. Bastard, OBE@captainannoying.bsky.social · yesterday“‘He would get in trouble and just—nothing ever seemed to happen,’ a former Shaker Heights High School classmate and baseball teammate of Miller’s told Politico in 2021 for a story that documented no fewer than four arrests between ages 18 and 22 on criminal charges…” prospect.org/2026/08/11/m...
Yeah these guys gotta go. When they lose the House or the Senate their markets will be used for election denial. Gotta rip the wires out.
QuoProQuid@quoproquid.bsky.social · 2d agoi personally think polymarket and all companies like it should be regulated out of existence and their assets seized by the state
“Winning is the worst thing that could happen to the left” is a genre of commentary that you can expect to get more and more popular now that the “These wackos will never win” genre has lost its plausibility.

hard to find a more succinct description of the line between the two parties than “Dems forced Platner out of the race when sexual assault allegations dropped and Republicans stood behind Max Miller after child abuse allegations”
Bill Kristol@billkristolbulwark.bsky.social · 3d ago"GOP may be stuck with Rep. Max Miller in Ohio" This piece is written as if the GOP were a passive bystander. But Republican leaders could have told Miller to get out. The could have said they wouldn't endorse him, or fund the race. Instead they enabled him to stay. www.axios.com/2026/08/09/o...
Odysseus mentioning that he’s in the Bronze Age made me think of a caveman saying “Man it is extremely Paleolithic around here lately”

a true crime podcast I would listen to is one where the victims families walk in and sit down in the studio halfway through the episode

i think this might actually be the skeleton key to the "why arent men reading" thing. maybe 10,000 more disco elysiums will finally fix men
Kent Lind@camasonian.bsky.social · 5d agoThinking about it for half a second. I bet you can make a direct correlation between the rise of the video game industry and the decline of male adventure literature of the Ludlum, Lamour, Forsyth, Cussler, MacLean, and Wilber Smith variety. Video games are the new adventure genre.
