Tonight’s Bulls-Hawks pick: Bulls by 7 (if Trae Young is in the lineup. If Daeqwon Plowden is in the lineup, Hawks by 25.)
The tribune sports department is like 30 people now. When they sent me to Super Bowl XLI I was one of 20 sent specifically to the Super Bowl.
A stat we don't talk about enough: Newspapers have lost 77% of their jobs over the last 20 year, more than any of the 532 other industries tracked by the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

You know who makes fun of me for being a second-rate NCAA swimmer? Me and only me. OK, like two of my college teammates. No one else knows/cares because I didn’t make it my brand.

what do you mean "they are using our tax dollars for food"

yes... a sign of a ethically reasonable society is not letting people starve for funsies

This is an unapologetic Ayo Dosunmu booster account.
As a dude who has worked in the elementary education and health care advocacy/outreach fields… yep. And since my name ends in an A, I get to see how people talk to my colleagues because they assume I’m not a dude.
women are about 78% of the healthcare workforce in america. i know people know this but it’s always worthwhile to state it outright. not only is it gendered to underpay healthcare workers but men who get “caught up” in it are undervalued for doing female-coded work. same with teachers.
It will never not bother me how often when you’re talking to someone — in life, for work, w/e — who is struggling that that person works in healthcare. Nurses, orderlies, home health aids, people who draw blood, etc

These people keep your loved ones alive often in their worst moments, and we as a country and a people make them suffer, as a policy choice
Given our current political situation, I think “hours” is the only hope of the counter going up above zero.

Real ones know he’s aka Amon Ones cuz he’s got no D and no J
A minor indignity of all of this is the sheer tonnage of boring dweebs cosplaying as jock/tough guys. Walz had the right idea with “weird” and it had traction in August ‘24, then the Carville set chimed in. These fucking nerds should have been swirlied into oblivion and instead…
an FBI official says the alleged NBA gambling ring involves the "Toronto Rangers" (not a real team), which doesn't exactly inspire confidence in the quality of their investigation

People criticize baseball players for keeping a little note card in their pockets to remember their defensive alignments, and I think we should hold cops to an even higher standard than a corner outfielder.
Remember, the fashy boys over at the everything app are only opposed to tent cities if they don’t have complete control over the tent cities.
Absolutely obsessed with framing your employees sleeping on the floor as a humble brag

“Look how hard my team works” no dude you’re just bad at project management.

Competent companies ship products without cosplaying being homeless
I will never tire of a well crafted AI/AI joke.
This is that West Wing brain of “there are only [x] people in the world who can craft messages so perfect and talk to people so good you can’t just chuck one out the window when you find them!” No actually. It’s a skill many can learn with practice.
I don't understand why so many people are saying "good luck finding a man without a Nazi tattoo!!!" like bro how many of you are there
Listening to @zachlowenba.bsky.social league pass rankings and he said Stacey
King is unfairly maligned by Bulls fans WHOMST OF YOU IS MALIGNING STACEY I JUST WANNA TALK. Is this a “Zach is still on Elon’s site” thing where a bunch of Nazi bots just hate a Black man? WHO IS MALIGNING OUR KING

A Black man wouldn't be elected if they have gold teeth. A woman wouldn't get elected if any boudoir photos of her exist, anywhere. No current Nazi tattoos is a really, really low bar to get over. (And the evergreen reminder that if Platner were Black we wouldn't even be having this conversation.)
Absolutely agree except the only Lexus owner I’ve known personally is an incredibly sweet woman who “just wanted to do something nice for myself,” after years of care work. A true “bless your heart” moment.
The Lexus December to remember campaign is especially baffling. “Merry Christmas honey! I got you some GREAT no money down financing without consulting you! And also this giant bow cost like $300!”

I dislike "big tent." I like "solidarity." Solidarity holds on even when it's unpopular, which is dangerous, but it doesn't let people go. I distrust those willing to give up this group to get that group while saying "we need all groups." We DO need all groups; so hold tightest to marginal groups.
I need a permit filled out can you email the mayor for me real quick?
