Some people have never had their video game console restart mid-game on them because it was bumped and it shows.

I teach history. That's my profession. That's what I'm trained in, that's what I was hired to train students in. That's what all my experience and interest is in.
I don't know a thing about AI and I don't want to. So if you want to teach AI, go teach AI in your own fucking classroom.

Goddamnit. So sad to hear about Glen Hansard. Just an amazing talent and incredible person, gone way WAY too soon. Just saw him last year at Ohana Fest...
Pull up Rhythm and Repose and The Swell Season if you're not familiar with Glen's music.

Three weeks ago, we were catching lakers and smallies up in the BWCA. Turns out we were miles north of where the wildfires started. A harrowing reminder of how unpredictable the wilderness is and how things can change in an instant. Continued thoughts go out to everyone affected by the fires.

Great CBS Sunday morning one of what used to be my favorite shows, now doing fluff pieces on JD fucking Vance. Bari just ruining anything that was ever enjoyable about CBS. And getting Robert Costa to trash his own journalistic creds in the process

honestly this is nuts, they're establishing an 8-hour security perimeter around the most used transportation hub in North America, so one guy can attend a basketball game

Almost as lost as Swanson is at the plate this year. I'm just baffled.
PCA giving up a little league home run wasn't on my season bingo card.
This Cubs team is absolutely lost right now.

Two wildly different forecasts.
One says 0% chance of rain, the other says 100% chance of rain.

I urge folks to look more at what she’s actually said on a bunch of stuff over the years because it’s much more rightwing than superficial 1st-trimester/red flag gun laws
A dream candidate for the national Republican Party, former sportscaster Michele Tafoya is finding support from Washington to be a double-edged sword as she seeks to win retiring Sen. Tina Smith’s seat.
Michele Tafoya has the support of the national GOP, but winning over state activists is a challenge
Tafoya will likely struggle to win the endorsement over GOP rivals at the state convention as her conservative credentials are scrutinized.
