Although the Washington one always annoyed me not bc of the illustration but because it was an illustration inside of a frame that also had feathers.

That of course isn’t the reason it had to go. But that always annoyed me.

I do agree that the start of it is also a weird kinda BS-y thing. Buuuut still. It seems like the end of it should be more black and white.

True. But you’d think they could do *something*

I don’t understand why the play clock isn’t reviewable in football. (And spare me that repeated statement about giving a beat after the clock gifs zero. I imagine it’s true, but it’s also dumb.)

I whole heartedly disagree. I liked both sets of Brewers identities in between.

The last one wasn’t quite nice enough. Something felt cheap about it. But it was close.

True. But Chief Illiniwek is objectively a neat piece of graphic design.

An appropriately retired (actually for some reason not entirely cuz stupid marketing BS) piece of graphic design. But a neat execution.

If you have a content you’re interested in feature, than having a not interested feature is a good idea.

I’m always lukewarm on that stuff (tho I probably did select some when I signed up and occasionally see it under discover) as I prefer manual selection.

But if one, then yes to the other.

I really can’t say often enough how not actually good the Brewers logo is.

Probably the most overrated logo in sports history.

Chaim Bloom should try to repair the relationship between the Cardinals and Mike Shildt and get Shildt back in the organization in some role.

He’d bring good tension. And a hell of a lot of organizational history and successful coaching experience.

Not suggesting anything in uniform.

Illinois got knocked out of the polls for having losses to #1 and #3 lol.

Oh well.

But I still stand by my statement that he is going to take a hit from this.

So I apologize that I let it come off that way. I condensed my thoughts into a single post but I almost went into how there’s also a whole segment of his audience that this will resonate with.

You aren’t wrong and you are 100% right about the history of the genre.

It’s even more than not being intimidated by the regime… it’s not being intimidated by the commercial base for his music.

He’ll take a hit from this, though he may open up doors to a different audience to.

And maybe, he’ll get some people to open their minds.

This is incredible to see from a mainstream media program that is in no way left wing.

Respect is a two-way street. Everyone should get and give it initially, but maintaining it is conditional.

And this is so *appropriately* disrespectful to the VICE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES. Amazing.

STEPHANOPOULOS: I didn't insinuate anything. I asked you whether Tom Homan accepted $50k as was heard on an audio tape recorded by the FBI in September 2024. You did not answer the question. Thank you for your time.

VANCE: No, George, I sai--

STEPHANOPOULOS: We'll be right back

“Who was president in 2020?” remains one of the most pertinent questions in American politics—absurd, yes, but here we are—and that extends to “who was president January 1 - 19, 2021?”

Joyce White Vance @joycewhitevance.bsky.social · 2d

That’s a nice trick, since Biden wasn’t the president on Jan 6.
