Honestly, I hope history is deeply, deeply unkind to these people. Fools, all of them.
Kathleen Bachynski@bachynski.bsky.social · 4w ago“On Thursday, Mr. Gorton said that “the success of the polio vaccine was a massive medical fraud” and that widespread vaccination was a “public health disaster.” He received a standing ovation… Mr. Kennedy spoke next, linking arms with the group even as measles cases continue to rise”
Waiting in a mile(s) long line at a 7 Brew for a needoh is criminal behavior.
This is honestly just the worst about society. I hope history refuses to forgive us for allowing the Kardashians to become a thing or for youth sports to become a “lifestyle” for adults who peaked in high school. Say nothing of monetizing it all and putting it on TV. thespun.com/news/kim-kar...

I would really like to hear the rationale the officiating crew utilized to give UM just one more second of clock.
Watched it every day after school as a kid. Nearly wore out the Mask of the Phantasm VHS too. Great writing, great cast, and just wonderful art direction.

Really feels like the goal at both espn and lsu is to hire the most unlikeable, unwatchable people.
Awful Announcing@awfulannouncing.bsky.social · last mo.Pat McAfee: "What has it been like, man?... You got sued by the [SEC], what, just two days ago..."

Every week you can count on there being one moment in Reacher that leaves you like…
Gonna start using the phrase “You need to clean that up” at work when people are acting up. That’s a keeper.
Patrick Monahan@pattymo.com · last mo.lol at even Judge absolutely nuking the crying Sox radio guy. This is his equivalent of a profanity-laced tirade
!["[Flemming] needs to stay out of that and not be telling people to throw at players and injure players," Judge said. "That's not what this game's about. A situation like that, that game determines home-field advantage in the playoffs. It's a six-run game. They put a couple guys on and hit a big homer, all of a sudden, we're getting our bullpen guys up in a tight spot. In a situation like that where they're not holding on Jazz, if you're not going to hold him on, what's going on here? Conceding, not conceding? It's a sIx-run game, still a close ballgame.
"Not too happy hearing broadcasters talking about trying to injure and hurt a player. He needs to clean that up.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:g62tajye723r3fa4gqw7l7ql/bafkreidyf47k4apxddqo6ezinnvt647tpaq6g64iep6hndw2p7g2r4exa4)

dame@dame.is · last mo.it’s that time of year again, Rolling Stone released their list of the top 25 content creators, which is actually a test of how old and out of touch you are… the lower your score, the more out of touch i’ve heard of 11 out of 25
Cringed so hard I'm now a fossil.

The funniest part about the John Mayer is leaving/not leaving Dead & Co. discourse is the folks who think he was only doing it for the money.
Yea, because we have a highly effective vaccine coupled with a highly vaccinated population you absolute dope. He’s actively worked to undermine that for years and now we’re beginning to see the unfortunate fruits of his work.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · last mo.RFK Jr defends measles: "In 10 years, there have been 3 measles deaths in America. There are now about 1.2 million deaths every year from food-induced illness. The media and certain demagogic politicians are constantly trying to scare us about infectious disease."
The funny thing is you can run around and tell people you’re an NFL wide receiver without scamming people. You can just do it for, like, funsies. Just to goof around.
Dolly Parton wrote amazing songs, treated people with kindness, and gave free books to kids. She was a true icon and will be dearly missed.
You know things are getting bad when the individual conferences are now trying to clean up the NCAA’s mistakes. www.espn.com/college-foot...
Sources: Big Ten won't allow players to return from NFL
The Big Ten is set to pass a rule Tuesday that doesn't allow players to return from the NFL and play for one of its schools, sources told ESPN's Pete Thamel.

I’m not entirely sure there’s a sports franchise more openly antagonistic toward their fanbase than the Cleveland Browns.
I saw the Lovesac CEO’s not deleted video to a customer and alls I can say is, “Killer v-neck, man!”
Hit my coworker with the ole, “Guess what?… Chicken butt,” gag. Poor soul never even saw it coming.
Once again, this all could’ve been at least somewhat mitigated had the NCAA acted in good faith years ago.

I realize it’s been 10 yrs since IG did their rebrand, so there’s argument it’s time to at least consider a brand refresh. I just can’t shake the idea they do this every time they’re fighting PR turbulence as a company. First Threads, now IG, Facebook will probs be next. Feels like distraction.
The number of LinkedInfluencers tripping over each other to post their deepest take on Instagram’s refreshed workmark is both predictable and comical (derogatory).

I think one of the greatest injustices is that Kevin O’Leary will never fully realize how much of absolute dork he is. All that money, still just a dork among the dorkiest.
Ann Monster Lipton@annmlipton.bsky.social · 2mo agoFor your consideration: “If you live in the celebrity bubble, party after party, with the same people—the same 25 people—life gets really boring,” said Kevin O’Leary, the businessman and “Shark Tank” panelist. “When you end up with a private-equity guy, your life gets far more interesting.”
Yea, how about we not use GenAI to create a “professional” headshot of yourself?
Everything EA makes is going to be worse than it already is.

Finally watched Obsession. Inde Navarrette, give her all the flowers. All of them. She feasted Really interesting concept, well-written, but the rest of the cast is kind of flat. I think Barker gets better as a director, but someone in Hollywood needs to give Navarrette roles w/ even more depth.
