I’m sure not getting a starting pitcher at the deadline or in the offseason will not come back to hurt them
Andrew Painter is out after four innings…
I read this and want to write a rebuttal that the Nintendo Switch 2 is the Greatest Console Ever Made, For Dads
On Civil War and the outlandish hyperbole at its center that is just exhaustingly real now
Marvel’s Civil War at 20 Month-by-Month: July 2006 Month 3 of Civil War solidifies there is only one right side in the war between Iron Man and Captain America.
Btw Abdul El Sayed is another victory for the Ms. Rachel endorsement. Perhaps the most powerful endorsement in politics??

I'm listening to Jon Stewart's interview with John Fetterman, and this guy is straight up lying. He is claiming he has never betrayed a promise to be "pro immigrant," and then immediately starts spouting Republican talking points about "deporting all the criminals".
Lots of great Quality of Life improvements in today's Pokopia update. Some very small annoyances revised and other big frustrations addressed. www.ign.com/articles/pok...

Thanks for letting me know it was hot, Peco. I really appreciate it, I hadn't noticed. tuxedo_mask_my_work_here_is_done.jpg
"That is not our country" is such a simple statement of fact about the weird relationship our politicians have to Israel and literally no other foreign nation. I am also glad that Stewart didn't just push back on Fetterman's childish claim that Israel is the same as "The Jewish people" but scoffed
This went a little different than his nightly interviews with Sean Hannity.
Well they are also cheaters who put half their pitchers on the IL with phantom injuries so they're rested for October and can have a completely different bullpen in the playoffs
The Dodgers are without question the most talented team and most likely to win the World Series Also, over last 30 days, they have 5th-worst bullpen ERA (5.16), are 20th in runs scored, & have maybe the weakest right-now C situation Both things are true, it's why baseball rules
The Republican party line is that they stand with sexually and physically abusive pedophiles.
Mike Johnson tells Politico that he's standing behind Republican Max Miller — despite the "serious" domestic abuse allegations against him.
the Michigan primary was close enough that you can pretty plausibly say it was the weird voice that lost it for Haley Stevens
The media's takeaway from an El-Sayed win is the same as it would have been from a Stevens win, and the same as it will be if El-Sayed wins the general, or if he loses it: everyone, no matter who they are, needs to take several steps to the right.

Listen I have no problem paying local taxes for my community. I am simply asking that you make it clear how to file and document those payments so that you’re not reaching out to me 3 years later demanding late payment on taxes I paid
Outspent by a huge margin, but only won by a healthy margin. You need that huge margin of victory. Don't you know, nothing's ever good enough
Progressives didn’t get the big election night they wanted
Forgot what happened the last time Phillies faced Tarik Skubal and I now believe they will win the World Series
honestly, the fact that we have made it through the atomic age *without* another use of nuclear weapons since 1945 is a miracle we don't fully appreciate
Today is the day the story There Will Come Soft Rain is set. An amazing and heartbreaking work of fiction for our modern age. Read it here:
This story will freak you out. So it seems like a good day to read it I guess if you haven’t
