Not sure the folks at NBC/Peacock thought this one through

Two announcers, Jason Garrett and Dan Hicks, stand in front of a sign that reads "Big Turd" thanks to how they are blocking it

This is legit driving me insane. Some of the best food I've ever eaten was on a trip to SW France/NW Spain. If I ever get into heaven, it will be San Sebastián at 8:30pm forever

Purdue to the rescue of IU student newspaper, whose institution was attempting censorship. Details in alt!

I'm sure many of you have heard by now that earlier this week, IU k*lled the print edition of its student paper, the IDS. The issue that was supposed to print this week contained criticism of the Whitten regime and IUs further slide into scist control, and they couldn't allow that to happen during Homecoming, when all the rich alumni are in town.
Enter Purdue! The Purdue student paper, The Exponent, owns its own presses. Yesterday, in an act of tremendous solidarity with their biggest rival school, they printed the forbidden issue of the IDS. They then drove it to Bloomington overnight and stocked all of the IDS boxes on campus, just in time for Homecoming.
Solidarity is what makes us stronger, and solidarity will be what ultimately allows us to triumph, if we can ever truly get it together. I hope everyone has a fun, safe day if they're going out today, and I hope we can think about what acts of solidarity we can begin taking to really make this movement MOVE - beyond a permitted expression of upset into more active resistance.

On this day of protest, when we all get our hearts embiggened with the sheer strength in numbers, I'm reminded that despite targeted harassment and media propaganda trying to paint a vocal minority as a majority, they failed to lionize Kirk and almost everyone saw that bullshit for what it was.

notice the general mood of the timeline? how everyone is in a good mood and there’s a lot less misery and dooming? how there’s a lot of “we’re going to beat these assholes”?

anyway that’s why these events are important

I don't know why people act like Shohei Ohtani doesn't have kryptonite. Whoever wins the ALCS just needs to unearth Wade LeBlanc for one last ride.

I just want a safe place to say I'm a silly and fun guy, but then my feed is just depressing reposts with occasional minute complaints about daily minutiae

YT short where a surfer is being saved from a huge wave. Big font says "when one second can save your life." Below that, smaller font reads "One Second Saved His Life" with mind blown emoji. Oh, and there's a concerned jet-ski pictured as well

Rockies To Narrow Front Office Search To Finalists Next Week

With the Nationals hiring Paul Toboni as president of baseball operations, the Rockies are the only team searching for a new front office head. That could soon be coming to an end, as Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports that the Rox will narrow to a group of finalists next week. Patrick Saunders of The Denver…

David S. Bernstein @dbernstein.bsky.social · 23h

By my count: Of the 15 Departments of the US Government, 13 launched new BlueSky accounts tonight (all but Justice and HUD), and all 13 have posted explicitly partisan political posts blaming Democrats and/or Chuck Schumer for the government shutdown.

I repeat my Vance advice and say you should just add these Trump accounts to literally any and every blocklist you run even if it was meant for people who post movie spoilers and Smurfporn.

Cythrin @cythrin.bsky.social · 1d

You gotta just block these accounts without interacting. They're doing this the night before No Kings so they can selectively grab quote posts and replies about how nasty people are being. It's extremely transparent. Just block and move on.

Matt Novak @paleofuture.bsky.social · 1d

Yes, it does look like the government accounts joining Bluesky are real, including Homeland Security and the White House. They're tweeting about it on X.
