Matthew Sheffield@matthew.flux.community · 7d agoTrump also thinks that magnets are a Chinese conspiracy. August 25, 2025: "China intelligently went and they sort of took a monopoly of the world's magnets, and nobody needed magnets until they convinced everybody 20 years ago, 'Let's all do magnets.'"

Joshua Baez will be a problem for the NL Central in the future, but I for one am glad his debut came against the Cubs

That’s a funny way of saying “used Marco Rubio as live bait”
The New York Times@nytimes.com · last wk.President Trump boarded Air Force One on July 8 as a ruse. He waved to the cameras and disappeared inside. Then he secretly exited the aircraft, hidden inside a catering container. It was an extraordinary subterfuge, aimed at protecting a president who has been in Iran’s cross hairs for years.
This is like using a forklift to do deadlifts and saying it's making you stronger

They don't even have the decency to drag his corpse into the Senate chambers "Weekend at Bernie's" style, smh
capitolhunters@capitolhunters.bsky.social · 2w agoSeems bad? Sen. Boozman of Arkansas is now voting for Mitch McConnell, claiming that McConnell talked to him and gave him permission to cast his vote. The photo on the article here is old, from before McConnell's crisis. No one's seen him. No reporters talked to him. But people are using his vote.

Heather Hill@rollin-academic.bsky.social · 2w agoA question from Reddit that I'll answer here: "What's the most unhinged thing a doctor has said to you with a straight face?"
Well that's an easy one: 2010 Wisconsin-Ohio State. The result speaks for itself. But the Gilreath opening KRTD, Watt's sacks, and storming the field...that made it perfection.

PJ, Sports Enjoyer🇸🇪🇺🇸@ptros.bsky.social · 2w agoThis interview is amazing. The guy is actually brilliant. He recites Homer in the original Greek, slams his sErIoUs opponent without being shitty, and says the most profound things about how children have good ideas. And to top it off he's truly funny. Worth the watch. youtu.be/6sj2m3SCXC8?...
Wait, he's really doubling (tripling?) down on the "people cut the reflecting pool with box cutters" bullshit?
My thoughts on Bluesky not being welcoming to Republicans is Trump blocks disaster relief to states voting blue, & is also legally codifying anyone who opposes him as a terrorist deserving violence, & his kidnapping brute gangs terrorize the streets, & there's much more but I'm out of characters
Ciara | Ciaraíoch 🎨@ciaraioch.bsky.social · 2w ago"Bluesky is a political echo chamber" okay but I'm mostly here to chat with fun internet people and post art and make jokes, I cannot stress how much I don't care

My bf is a Giants fan and this coming out one fact at a time over several hours last night was fun. “He was already injured and got hurt out drinking…on a scooter…which he crashed…into a truck? …a FIRE ENGINE? …IT RAN OVER HIS FOOT? HE DID THE SAME THING IN COLLEGE??” nypost.com/2026/07/31/s...
