Tired & dehydrated, I like basketball
Russell Westbrook was my favorite basketball player (I mean, my picture is John Starks), and retired yesterday. Perhaps not coincidentally, @rbuas.bsky.social happened to write one of my favorite sports essays about him three years ago.

If he's going to get a national profile on the strength of a younger woman's campaign, I'm going to come out and say it: during his short-lived tenure as a math professor, Biss had an inappropriate romantic relationship with one of his undergraduate students. I was that student.
The push for generational change in the Democratic Party faces a test in a Chicago-area congressional district, where the top candidates span three generations: from Gen X and millennials to Gen Z. n.pr/3PD5bZ6
A race for a safe blue seat tests how far left Democrats want new leaders to go

A good reminder of why electing people like @katmabu.bsky.social is important - one of the precious few who may hold high office that are on the street. when ICE came to Chicago it was her, and some alderpeople, and that’s about it.
the leaders of the civil rights era could not propose or veto legislation. they had no "power." but they had legitimacy because they were out there. Letter from a Birmingham Jail was written...FROM JAIL. But with these guys "Hey it's crazy right now and we can't do much, but give us money." LOL ok.

Maybe this guy who got arrested at the Wisconsin Governor’s mansion had just died to Governor Evers 30-40 times as a tank build and decided to shed the armor and come back as a light-rolling glass cannon. At least he’s not summoning.
