A pressing issue: why are vinyl albums becoming so different from their digital versions?

I’m telling you this as a political scientist. The person who is electable is the one who is elected. This can and does change over time. Any and all speculation about “electability” is either puffery or anxiety and is often both.

Anyone from CLT and its environs want a pair of tickets to the CLT FC v Pumas match tonight? Free to a good home, only requirement is that you actually use them.
A corollary of this is that winking and nodding at a bunch of transphobes isn't going to build an audience for the WNBA. The people who like women's basketball already watch it.
Coach Finstock@coachfinstock.bsky.social · 6d agoThis is for no one. Whether you like it or not, ESPN, MAGA doesn't watch football. They don't watch sports. They bitch about sports. They wear jeans to the beach. They are, to a man, losers. You're fucking the dog on this
Clearly there’s an unmet need for more walkable vegan ice cream establishments.

Thomas Bamonte@thomasbamonte.bsky.social · 3w agoThe Chicago region's current roadway pricing structure, which contains a pricing incentive encouraging traffic to use the most congested expressways in the urban core, is a policy failure with adverse congestion, environmental, transit, and equity consequences. bsky.app/profile/thom...
If anyone is interested in going to the Smidley (Conor Murphy of Foxing) show at Subterranean in Chicago on Friday, I've got 2 tickets that are free to a good home.

Michael Caley@michaelcaley.bsky.social · last mo.also the US team already is composed of players who are succeeding in the top European leagues! I feel like I'm taking crazy pills reading the commentary on this team.
With relatively few exceptions, no one's first political campaign should be for Senator or President and it's generally a big red flag if that's your approach.
After the decision was delayed, FIFA is set to officially appoint the hosts of the 2031 & 2035 Women's World Cup tournaments on November 23 of this year. 2031 expected to be in the U.S., Mexico, Jamaica & Costa Rica while 2035 will head to England, Scotland, Wales & Northern Ireland.

Just one of those things that stuck with me. Have no doubts that Middleton will remain a fan favorite wherever he goes. Tarps off forever.

There’s something very sad about seeing folks just taking videos on their phone while watching live sports.
I'm apparently in the minority here, but I think the Lamelo/Naz trade is a pretty good one. 1. Wolves needed an upgraded ballhandler/playmaker and Lamelo provides that. 2. I think he'll get some improvement with efficacy as the #2 guy as compared to being the focal point of the Charlotte offense
