Those are two beautiful kitties! Blackjack looks like my boy Benny (who has all black fur).

Rockin' the teal cap!

If nothing else, the audio is mostly just the sounds of Lake Superior. Soothing.

A sigh of relief. Pistons win! 🏀

Ben Wallace looks good, too, but not so young.

Nice interview with Rip Hamilton there. He looks young!

A lot of people might find a game with a big lead boring, but not me. (Especially with the fourth period left to go.) But I'm fine if this is a laugher. I'd like three more to follow it. 🏀

Sounds good! You had a lot of good examples in that thread. Besides, it illustrates how even very bright people can get percentages a little mixed up (but not nearly as much as the very weasel-ly people intentionally misusing them).

Okey dokey now! 20 point lead! 🏀

Not that blocking an account is big news, but Alice Cooper wouldn't be asking people to contact him via a Gmail address or a Signal account. 😄 Bye, fake Alice.

Not happy that Orlando's hanging around this closely. 🏀 It's early, but still, let's see a nice 12-point run.

That's a dapper gorilla on that cover

I just assume that everything they do is some sort of self-serving grift. Easy peasy!

Oh, thank goodness, Ernie Johnson and the crew are back. Finally.

Hopefully, the Pistons play like a number one seed tonight. 🏀

I am old, so I beg @aoc.bsky.social to run for the presidency before I die. (She's 36, so it's constitutional!)

I have no intention of shuffling off soon, but still.

Tigers option Enmanuel De Jesus to Triple-A; Burch Smith called up Burch Smith, a 36-year-old righty reliever, owns a 5.79 ERA across 247⅓ innings in his 152-game MLB career, spanning six seasons with seven teams.

De Jesus wept.

Giving up 7 runs last night and committing a throwing error, and having a 10.13 ERA over a total of eight innings of relief work will getcha sent to the Triple A.

40 years? What?

I'm so old now that when I feel the need, it's the need to have peed.

I would have guessed the Securities Exchange Commission, but I might be thinking of a different kind of whale.

I've had that happen. I look up at them and yell "Not yet, jackass!"

Position player takes the mound and breaks out the KNUCKLEBALL?! 😳 (Full inning) | MLB Highlights YouTube video by MLB

Tigers got walloped by the Brewers tonight, but there was the simple joy of a position player, catcher Jake Rogers, pitching in the 9th.

The gathered fans of a particular team behave honestly when hearing the pick and going "Who? Never heard of him," instead of cheering like the next Peyton Manning was announced.

With their first pick in the 2026 NFL Draft, the San Francisco 49ers select QB Peyton Brady

It's getting to where people just need to keep pepper spray by the door.
