This is like Iraq War insurgency era op-eds explaining that it is considered rude in Muslim societies for masked foreigners with weapons to break down the door of your house in the middle of the night

Exceptional show from JRAD in Napa last night and also the worst concert sound I’ve heard in years. The house PA was a mess from beginning to end. Undersized, underpowered, shrill, speakers on the fritz, random loud popping throughout. Mix wasn’t great but that’s downstream from the trash system
I would LOVE to read a postmortem on Vox. It started with a lot of promise, and ended with a whimper. What even HAPPENED there?

Baseball occupies this quadrant in American sports
lauren@lauren.rotatingsandwiches.com · 3w agothe thing missing from American Soccer Fan discourse is a healthy dose of pseudoscientific mysticism. i'm going to take the What The Bleep Do We Know route and start insisting we literally can't perceive the ball on the field because we haven't been exposed to anything like that before
Yank some chains ahead of the midterms and inevitable litigation

JD is going to perform the Last Rites on Mitch and then get in a Twitter beef with Leo about it
Sky Marchini@sky.skymarchini.net · 4w agointeresting! i don't like that. www.courier-journal.com/story/news/p...
This is a revealing piece, the author is Carlos Lozano, a Dumb Centrist type prone to obfuscation and false equivalencies. That he feels comfortable going straight at JD here does not portend well for the VP. Elite media looked past all of these red flags previously. The shine appears to be off
Larry Glickman@larryglickman.bsky.social · 4w agoThere are several disturbing revelations about Vance in this piece, including that, as news of the Covid pandemic reached him, he "drove to a sporting goods store and bought 1,000 rounds of ammunition.” www.nytimes.com/2026/07/07/o...

i would very much rather the national guard not be in DC but you do have to admit the photo with both creates a funny contrast between who in this country LARPs as a troop and who actually enlists
Ashley Murray@ashleymurray.bsky.social · last mo.Dozens of Patriot Front members just boarded metro minutes ago at the Eastern Market station in Washington, D.C. I asked one National Guard member who they were and they responded "protesters." A July 4th community parade is about to begin just outside the Eastern Market station.
And that brings us to the Ozarks

I run the protection program. We’ll take care of you.
