The number of AI-related commercials that have aired during the Super Bowl is depressing and gross.
Iâve bet my 401K that they do.
Not everyone has Zohranâs charisma, but count me extremely in on the Mamdanification of municipal governments everywhere. More earnest, transparent, hopeful communications about what youâre all doing for your people!
Such bullshit
@bcbsara.bsky.social when do you think t-mobile will open up the mlb streaming access? Iâm asking because you were so helpful on timing for that last year.
I hope they keep Nico. I fear they will justify the 175 by trading Nico for prospects (farm is bad), to say âwell for 163 (AB minus NH), we got AB + prospects. And slide Shaw over. Fangraphs has them tied for projected 107 WRC+, and Hoerner 0.8 WAR higher (maybe because 2B).

#AI is coming for all of our #jobs. In the #2028presidentialelection the candidate that has a serious planâproviding for: (1) #universalbasicincome, (2) #universalhealthcare, (3) raising #minimumwage to $20/hr, (4) #taxcuts for people making less than $100,000âwill win.

Think like a #socialist. But govern like a #moderate.
This is wrong. These generalizations are unhelpful/mean-spirited. Texans did not vote for this. You could, at best, argue the majority voted for shitty gov't, but right now with dead kids that would be an awful take (like this). Also, >40% of us voted against all of this. #facts
the cubs pummeling a scrub who wore a gulf of america hat on cinco de mayo is as much patriotism as i need this july fourth. eat shit, miles mikolas.
if young voters turned out like they did for Zohran Mamdani for every race, the Democratic Party would never lose an election again
so naturally, establishment Dems areâŚsmearing him and refusing to endorse?
Each Supreme Court ruling will bring the people closer to embracing expanding the Court and reforming it. Roberts and Republicans have destroyed the Court's reputation and integrity beyond repair.
Justice Jackson did not come to play today (Birthright citizenship/nationwide injunctions)
Go Dodgers!!
The LA Dodgers have denied ICE Agents from entering Dodger Stadium.

Members of a womenâs soccer team are lined up wearing tshirts that say âImmigrant City Football Clubâ
This is super cool from the NWSL team Angel City FC, which is based in LA. They distributed these tshirts at last nightâs game.
L.A. TACO is working on confirming the total of vendors and customers taken by ICE but it's estimated that 40 to 50 of them were detained. A video shared from a vendor's son who saw everything unfold as ICE raided the Santa Fe Springs Swap meet. Tonight's event was cancelled. @janettev.bsky.social
US Senator Alex Padilla of California illegally removed by Trump regime thugs for questioning the regime. The regime thugs then tried to stop recording of the repression in an attempt to cover it up. #3E #EndImpunity
Joseph Stalin has conducted a series of trials of high-ranking military officials in Moscow. He says espionage for Germany needs to be punished; critics say the evidence has been faked and the defendants have been deprived of fair trials.
The media is going to BOTH SIDES us right into martial law
That officer took deliberate aim at this journalist and shot her. There's nobody standing near her.
sheâs like 15 feet away. absolutely that manâs whole thought process was: âIâm gonna shoot that womanâ
It is difficult to overstate how much I loathe such selfish dumbasses:
Hegseth is now threatening to send the Marines to LA to suppress protesters against ICEâs brutal assault on immigrant garment workers.
Just process that: Sending in the *military* to crack down on protesters.
Weâre now at severe risk of martial law. Thatâs what theyâve wanted all along.
One attorney, Lizbeth Mateo, said ICE officials slated several of her clients for check-ins at the Edward R. Roybal Federal Building in downtown L.A. but when they showed up on Tuesday, they were detained and immediately escorted to the basement. Mateo said a couple and their two children, one of whom is a U.S. citizen, spent the night in a room with no beds and limited access to food and water. Mateo said the father had previously been issued a stay of removal, barring him from deportation but he and his family were detained anyway. His wife was released Wednesday evening along with their children since she needed medical attention due to a high-risk pregnancy. He was still being detained early Friday, Mateo said.
đ¨NEW: @cbsnews.com reports ICE is arresting people who can't even legally be deported and holding them without enough food or water in a federal building BASEMENT in Los Angeles.
Families dutifully attending check-ins with ICE are being arrested and held for days, forced to sleep on the floor.
Elon now calling for Trump to be impeached and saying his tariffs will cause a recession⌠hard to keep up!
