Not even sure as to what number of Mountain Goats shows that I'm at lifetime at this point, but tonight's late show at The Blue Note Hawaii was easily a top 3. Just incredibly joyous, communal, incredible. Matt was on fire, making the jazz club proud. Love you @themountaingoats.bsky.social
MLB coaches should be able to mark on the lineup card at the beginning of games any players who the umps are required to ignore their challenges. Caballero and Jazz need to be permanently crossed out, circled, highlighted, etc
we all know I have no life, so:
A sandy blanket on a sandy section of Waimānalo Beach on Oahu
Knicks got me livid on a Hawaiian beach, what are we doing here
I feel like "anti rich current reaches crescendo" is when the guillotine operators are getting OT not when you find a way to levy a new small tax on an undertaxed upper class
At risk of getting all "Ruthkanda Forever", these are all great people! There is a better world!
And notably, a bar with union jacks that smells like piss that is two blocks from the much bigger and more well-loved bar that has union jacks that smells like piss. That's the market deciding, my babies at the CA Post!
Happy pride!

broke: k-shaped economy

Absolutely agree with the point overall, and I bet that if there were a few more Dems in congress they still would've found a way to lose this vote, but just to point out- the one Dem no vote was center-right Jared Golden, who has already announced he's leaving, and is torching shit on the way out
"White guys on the Dodgers" has historically been a very iffy category to be a fan of, but I'm willing to give him a chance
Photo that's been around the internet for a long time where you can't really recognize anything in the picture, even though there's a lot of stuff
Every time this gets posted I think it's the food version of
has any family aged in a more British fashion than the Osbournes? Every picture of Sharon and Kelly look like cruel caricatures of medieval baronesses. Is Jack relatively normal?
To my knowledge, no member of Geese ever left piss and vomit on my law school dorm's stoop, which is my lasting memory of living in the Santacon battle zone. But to be fair, Santacon didn't do that, an NYU/Baruch undergrad lightweight did that, so maybe I should redirect my ire
Start calling your local branch and breathily reading them 6 digit numbers before hanging up
BREAKING: The U.S. bishops’ Committee on Doctrine just issued a formal statement defending Pope Leo XIV's teaching authority on just war doctrine — less than twelve hours after JD Vance told a Turning Point USA crowd the pope should “be careful” talking theology.
This is a serious escalation.
Aaaaand he breaks the tie with Goldschmidt with #374
And he breaks a tie with Mickey Mantle with his 47th career multi-homer game
Yankees Most Multi-HR Games
68 Babe Ruth

46 Mickey Mantle
43 Lou Gehrig

29 Alex Rodriguez
So once again a man started a wildly successful harassment campaign against a female celebrity who didn’t actually do anything and the internet swallowed it full throated, and the whole thing is revealed to be concocted horseshit he can’t muster anything more than “sorry that happened I guess”
With everyone's weird uncle/coworker/friend doing roids they got through the mail, MLB should allow every team to designate 1 guy per year as their "roid guy". No substance off-limits. Voluntary-only, but I don't think it'd be hard to get guys to step up.

Striking that the biggest tell that it was written by an American is how terrible it reads
My one-hour special “Rick Steves Iran: Yesterday and Today,” which helps humanize 90 million Iranian people, is streaming free and ad-free at www.ricksteves.com/watch-iran.
A screenshot of a study by the Brattle Group of publicly-available information about SEC enforcement actions. When compared to the monthly average number of enforcement actions from 2018-2024, the enforcement actions in 2025 were massively lower. The starkest month was September: from 2018-2024, there was an average of 208 enforcement actions in the month of September (the final month of the SEC's fiscal calendar); in 2025 there were 47 enforcement actions. (Apologies for no direct alt-text quote, my PC does not want to grab this copy for some reason)
Not sure what caused this to get attention today, but as a 14 month later update: yeah, it's gotten way worse. The SEC office responsible for enforcement press releases hasn't published since last March, and data available to the industry shows enforcements at historic lows @mugrimm.bsky.social
I just googled "Dan Harmon" and "Dan Harmon apology" was the #3 result, 8 years after it happened, because it's still such a uniquely fulsome apology for the industry. And yeah Dan is intelligent, funny and has no problem shitting on himself, but even something approaching that will get the job done
Donnchadh, Scotland There are few dogs who have changed the course of history in two different countries and over centuries. A loyal bloodhound named Donnchadh, who belonged to King Robert the Bruce of Scotland, did exactly that with one faithful act. In 1306, the English had captured Robert the Bruce's wife and his dog, Donnchadh. They devised a plan to use Robert the Bruce's dog to track him down and uncover his hiding place. The soldiers released the dog, who was able to find his owner, but surprised the English when he turned on them and defended his master, driving the soldiers away. Robert the Bruce survived because of his dog's intervention, and went on to become King of Scotland. Four centuries later, King George III, a direct descendant of Robert the Bruce, would aggressively enforce the British trade laws with the American colonies. The disputes that arose between the American colonies and the British was what led to independence of the United States. Had Robert the Bruce not been rescued by Donnchadh, King George III would never have been born, and America may not be where it is today.

Recency bias, but gotta be Laika right?
Thank you for validating that my insane Barcelona-to-Rome-to-London flight last August means that I summered in Italy
