I mostly talk about OH politics + Columbus Crew soccer. Husky mom. Beat 🧠 cancer. Feminist. Extremely Midwestern. She/Her. Opinions = mine.
I once had a longtime criminal defense attorney tell me he felt guilty people often said “there’s no way this could have happened because of X, Y and Z,” instead of ”this did not happen because I did not do it.”
The Bulwark@thebulwark.com · 4d agoRep. Max Miller: "My former wife has claimed that during a custody exchange at my home that day, I assaulted her…If I had assaulted her, would she have offered to cook me dinner six days later?"
Anyone who has worked with domestic violence victims know the answer to this is too often yes.

So many thoughts. I’ll share just one: Thank you, Sherrod Brown, for being the honorable public servant who makes your family proud, always.

I still can't believe this guy beat @sherrodbrownoh.bsky.social. As an Ohioan, I am constantly embarrassed.

Tonight was the night Taha became president. After two years of not having a position - his position is officially whatever he was playing tonight. #Crew96
FCC should be embarrassed about their classless behavior. They should’ve stayed in the USL. 🤷🏻♀️ 🔥🔥#crew96 win #hellisreal 🔥🔥
The #crew96 looked like a trash fire last night, but I am going to give them a bit of a pass with a rotated roster on Wednesday night, new players not available because of Visa issues and #HellisReal on Saturday. 🤞Brais Mendez is fit enough for some minutes Saturday.
The only team not to lose to Spain at the World Cup? Cape Verde.
Me to Spain RN because I have seen too many Argentina comebacks this WC.

The fact that VP JD Vance and Richard Grenell went to Romania—on behalf of the Trump Administration— to advocate for Andrew and Tristan Tate, who by all accounts, were rapists running a coercive sex ring, then permitted them to come to Florida, should be a crazy, crazy scandal.
Anyone ever just randomly for no reason at all get the hamster dance song stuck in your head?

cooked, low energy, things of that nature in all seriousness: I’m not going to say we aren’t in trouble because we are obviously in trouble but whining about the SAVE Act is not the act of someone with a coherent plan to steal the elections and when he tries it’s going to be a haphazard shitshow
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 3w agoTrump: "Congress must pass the SAVE America Act"
Imagine the lives that could be saved or lengthened if instead that money was directed towards finding a cure for cancer. Just one example: the five-year survival rate for brain cancer is only about 35%.
Gillian Branstetter@gbbranstetter.bsky.social · 3w agoRFK Jr. asked the National Institute of Health to dedicate $5 billion (!) to finding a link between vaccines and autism. "That would have dedicated more than a tenth of the NIH’s annual budget to investigating a hypothesis already refuted by scientists worldwide."
Happy #Crew96 STM renewal day to all who have to do math to figure out how much their tickets have increased.
Messi might have to pick up the pace. Start moving a brisk walk.
This 2026 World Cup was supposed to be different. The hope built up around this #USMNT was enormous. It ended like it always does. Only this one stung more. www.nytimes.com/athletic/742...
USMNT's 2026 World Cup carried so much promise. It ended like it always does

Yes the #USMNT shit their pants in the most meaningful men’s game in history, but at least MLS fired their entire organization earlier this year, oh wait shit
On behalf of all USMNT supporters everywhere, special thanks to Donald Trump for wrapping the team in distraction and scandal before their biggest game ever. Really appreciate him getting his grubby tiny hands all over this.
