Incredibly difficult for the computers to know anything about Dayton with two returning starters and only three total contributors.

But hey, the schedule will tell us all we need to know pretty quickly.

It's so brief and meaningless, but you know, got some time on my hands.

Pretty risky for Iowa to use their entire season scoring quota in just one game.

I think he's scarier with his new haircut. The long greasy locks always kind of made me laugh.

Damn, what a post!

I get all woozy at elevation, so I'm more of a regular altitude plains drifter enthusiast.

I can deal with Vandy and Mississippi State succeeding because they almost never do. Everyone else? Trade losses forever. And no, University of MIssissippi, I won't call you "Ole Miss"

I try not to think too much about SEC football because pretty much every matchup causes similar thoughts to rattle around my skull.

Have you heard about Obi Toppin's 14 points, 5 boards and 3 assists in 17 first half minutes?

Pre-season basketball, it matters to me*!

*Specifically when Obi Toppin does well

Ugh. Trapped here with Grok shouting "heil Hitler" at me all day.

I'd ask for some brand synergy between Neuralink and Space X instead because at least there'd be a decent chance of the rocket exploding with me in it.

I was going to be a bit mean about Europe since they only managed to get one player in SF6 top 8 at Evo France, but they got three players in top 8 for Tekken which is insanely impressive in a game that has been absolutely dominated by Korea and Pakistan.

What circle of hell would the hypothetical town be in for such a town hall?

rawkitbawl @rawkitbawl.bsky.social · 22h

This sounds unbelievably bad.

Salvation Army seen feeding ICE today. For anyone who doesn't already know about their bigotry, here is more, No need to give them your money this Christmas, or ever.

It’s dinner time for the police. Appears to be pizza from a Salvation Army van.

Broadview’s “free speech” curfew starts soon, at 6pm.

There must be some mistake, I read 50 Atlantic articles about how RFK Jr just wants to help Americans eat more vegetables

They continue to eviscerate the public health machinery that has quietly kept Americans, and others around the world, safe and healthy for decades.

The staff of the Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report, the journal that reports on health trends and emerging infectious threats, was also laid off. The publication’s storied history includes a June 1981 report that five previously healthy gay men were treated for an unusual pneumonia — the first hint of the AIDS epidemic.

Roughly 70 Epidemic Intelligence Service officers — the so-called “disease detectives” who respond to outbreaks around the globe — received layoff notices, according to a person familiar with them. The service was spared during an earlier round of layoffs in February.

If you haven't followed the Shanghai Masters, maybe check out the final tomorrow.

Valentin Vacherot making the final (beating Djokovic in the semi) as a qualifier from outside the top 200 is a fantastic story.

It's never been more clear that they just want more people to die more quickly.

Sheryl Gay Stolberg @sherylnyt.bsky.social · 1d

BREAKING: Friday night massacre underway at CDC. Doznes of "disease detectives," high-level scientists, entire Washington staff and editors of the MMWR (Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report) have all been RIFed and received the following notice:

It's a different French brandy. It's a bit harder to find because it's almost exclusively made by small producers. Fun to experiment with if you can find a place that sells it!

We should take it one step further and switch to armagnac

Creating, contributing to, or using any technology that allows you to make even slightly reasonable deep fakes of another person without their permission & especially doing something that they haven’t done or would not do, plain and simple, should get you beaten with a sack of rocks.

Let's go, MIT. Standing on the right side is cool.

Why is Roger Federer debasing himself like this? Do you need another million dollars?

rawkitbawl @rawkitbawl.bsky.social · 2d

Not a lot of private universities that sound like they're public. Dayton, Boston College, NYU, San Francisco, Detroit Mercy, maybe.
