Those lines in the background of that NDSU logo are such a visceral flashback to I don't know how many 80's posters that hung on my wall.

This is a sacrilegious thought, but I feel like a drive like that would work against OSU.

A little drive by Ann Arbor protesting before a football game. What’s more American than this?

A selfie facing backwards outside the passenger side of the car, with the rear passenger holding a sign that says “H-O-T-T-O-G-O Fascism has got to go.

Need to know what Ohtani’s individual WAR was for this one game.

Yesterday, I didn't necessarily want a new Of Monsters and Men album. But today, I apparently desperately needed a new Of Monsters and Men album.

If Untitled is the orgasm of the album, Africa is the cigarette afterwards. The whole album is literally built like a sexual encounter.

D’Angelo is one of the only other artists who could have realistically hit these notes.

Dave. I don't understand. Are you saying certain opponents might be saying things in bad faith? Does that happen in politics?

This one stings. I barely listened to his genre of music but D'Angelo absolutely transcended it for me. He was essential. And dare I say, the How Does It Feel video and song taught me how to seduce women. Not as good as him, but still.

Rolling Stone @rollingstone.com · 6d

D’Angelo, the neo-soul trailblazer and modern visionary whose three albums were all heralded as classic works of art, has died at age 51.

Just now saw a commercial where a girl comes home to her childhood home and her lame Dad is running on a treadmill in her room and we know he’s lame because he’s listening to Collective Soul and I do NOT like that.

I'm afraid to say how many bands I've discovered via Taco Bell commercials.

You need two touchdowns one way or another, and the analytics always say go for two when you're down by two touchdowns. Also with most of a quarter left, it's not a bad idea to try and bank points. USC could still conceivably score a FG or something.

Kennedy thinks the Supreme Court will have empathy for adopted kids to gay parents and adhere to stare decisis which lol, ok Grandpa.

Retired Justice Anthony Kennedy, who wrote the Supreme Court’s 2015 opinion declaring a right to same-sex marriage, recalled one of the poignant realities that influenced him – and why he believes the decision would never be overturned. https://cnn.it/4nEccFb

Good piece. Very reasoned in regard to all the discourse. You'll never make it on First Take.

If the worst thing you can be to Gen Z is cringe, I've never understood why their platform of choice is TikTok, the capital of cringe.

Macron remarks are notable- some quotes: "We have been incredibly naive in entrusting our democratic space to social networks that are controlled either by large American entrepreneurs or large Chinese companies, whose interests are not at all the survival or proper functioning of our democracies."

Taking a noncontroversial Let People Enjoy Things position on the Taylor Swift record. Good to see people hyper-analyzing a new album, ranking songs, comparing it to old work. Every minute they do this is a minute not spent watching slop.

I know there’s way too much news to keep up with, but this is important too. Apparently there’s an international sausage shortage, and it’s particularly affecting the entertainment industry. I’ve just learned that the Life of a Showgirl does not contain enough bangers.

We should start calling field goals that move the lead from 7 points to 10 points “insurance field goals.” Why should baseball dominate the terminology of potentially worthless points?

I fully understand how difficult it is to remain focused on any one particular atrocity but this really ought to be a serious scandal and people need to pay heavy prices for this
