Apropos of nothing, my rule for VAR (and all video replays) - 3 looks, at game speed, then you have to decide.

We recorded the annual Cubsmas Carols episode of @bleacherbunch.bsky.social and it was amazing as always. Thanks to all the ranters who gave us such a good laugh this year. Check us out on youtube for all the fun.

I see a lot of posts about #NCAA football going on this weekend, but I'm over here preparing to watch my #Hawkeyes basketball team take on the #1 #Huskies. Let's go Hawks!

Libtard who lucked into money makes a series of bad decisions. Don't worry, the #ConservativeMediaBias will explain how this time it won't be a "lord of the flies" hellscape.

This is true both Figuratively and Literally. Library Cards are free and they offer way more than books.

If you haven't been by your library recently, do so this holiday season.

There is no single private company that provides what a library does. It is the shining beacon of government good.
Your library card is the most priceless card you will ever own.

They were not dismissed or misunderstood. The media knew what was happening, but they backed the future fascist president because they have a severe #ConservativeMediaBias that is continually platforming the Cons. The media is complicit. There is no left wing/liberal major media outlet in the U.S.

For everyone who thinks the Dodgers are overpaying their employees, think again.
Well the Dodgers union busting worked again.

I don’t know if I can continue working for this team.

And I love this team. But they have treated us abysmally.

I’m so heartsick right now.

Good point Dr.

Follow up question: should we be more concerned that medical care is this expensive instead of whether a very small percentage of people want to have this particular surgery?

If medical care was cheaper, you might be able to afford some actual balls.

We need to have more conversations is code for we want to reach more people with our fascist dogma.

We don't need more conversations when one party is uninterested in facts.

We need more people with facts talking to us without being interrupted by nonsense.

Remember:

This all happened because the entire media pushed the Biden is old issue after a single bad appearance on TV in which the other person was saying complete nonsense. We threw away the most progressive president in the last 50 years & allowed a known fascist to win.

I deleted the identifiers cuz this isn't about this particular post but it's a great example.

DO NOT POST THINGS WHERE WE SEE THE EXACT SAME WORDS MULTIPLE TIMES!

This has been my TErD talk, thank you for listening.

Hey all, this is the nonprofit, low power radio station where I volunteer. It would be great if you could give it a follow. They play shows like Democracy Now, Climate One, & Situation Room as well as local Iowa shows Fallon Forum, Iowa Business Report, & Writers Voices.

WAR.
unh!
Good god y'all.
What is it good for?
ICYMI Kyle Schwarber ranks only 70th among active players in WAR.

So why did the Phillies just make him one of the highest paid players in baseball?

I tried my best to explain the unique qualities that make him bigger than his WAR www.nytimes.com/athletic/687...
Kyle Schwarber: A unique contract for a unique player — and Phillies legend in the making
Why has there never been a contract like this? Possibly because it’s practically impossible to find another player quite like this.

Rob Reiner dead. Have we started blaming conservatives before there are any details at all?

The Cubs biggest need is new leadership. Ricketts and Hoyer have done the impossible. They were part of the team that won the World Series and less than 10 years later, we hate them. Imagine being that bad at YOUR job.

Is there anything worse than a salesman? I just had a meeting with someone that I was under the impression was about something completely different, but the guy was trying to sell me on something related, but not the point of the meeting. Needless to say, that guy won't be contacting me again.
