Thank you! I had no idea about this.

I saw his start against the Mariners in August, and he was pretty much unhittable.

@skwinnicki.bsky.social If you have a moment and can take a look at this bird nutrition poster, and let us know if it's accurate or not, I'd be grateful.

If you are watching Trump's presser right now, you are seeing beyond reasonable doubt a person not mentally suited for any position of responsibility. Even running a small store.

GOP members of the House and Senate: You are seeing this too.

With mirrors!

Anniversary of ‘Bloody Sunday’ Marks Continued Fight for Voting Rights | ACLU Selma Jubilee revelers annual trek across the Edmund Pettus Bridge in Alabama reminds us why we can never stop advocating for enfranchisement for Black Americans.

61 years ago, on a day we now refer to as Bloody Sunday, Black civil rights activists were brutally attacked by state troopers while marching 54 miles across Alabama to fight for the right to vote.

Their bravery in the face of state violence was key in passing the Voting Rights Act of 1965.

Well, it was still 14 years when Issa was filing design patent applications.

I lack the words to capture it, but ... it's just endlessly remarkable to me that so many people in our society have chosen trans kis -- TRANS KIDS, the smallest, least significant, most vulnerable demographic slice you could possibly pick -- as a repository for all their fears & insecurities.

I tell her: “you’ll never guess what his nickname is”

As always, @profsaunders.bsky.social is one of the first people to check to understand international relations issues. This thread highlights multiple reasons how this administration is making a huge mess of things.

I'm so sorry.

Unfortunately, we know exactly which administration officials you mean. Or maybe that's fortunate.

My university received a few years ago the promise of the largest single gift to a public university in U.S. history. It was equivalent to 12 hours of bombing Iran.

When that comes on the local classical public station, it's a guaranteed earworm for the rest of the day.

For me, Bill Clinton was first elected when I was in my 20's (OK, very end of my 20's), and Donald Trump was reelected when I was old enough to take Social Security.

If Easter cakes were a thing, they wouldn't have white writing directly on cake, they'd have multicolored eggs, bunnies, etc. That is a poor excuse for an Easter cake!

Loove it!

Re-upping this: PLEASE SPREAD THE WORD!!! PHILLY PEOPLE!! This smart kitty Ziggy will be EUTHANIZED at 10am Thursday morning if he doesn't find an adopter or rescue to take him!! Can you foster him???
@nuclearanthro.bsky.social On behalf of fellow tuxedo cat Italy, can you help get the word out?!

I remember that providing American arms to Israel was a way to see how U.S. equipment and tactics would do against Soviet equipment. The 1982 defeat of the Syrian air force by the Israelis was probably reassuring to U.S. planners, for example.

So did they have a moment of horror when they saw the title and thought someone else had done the exact same research, or did they know immediately?

Tillis: You decided to kill that dog because you had not invested the appropriate time in training it, and then you have the audacity to say it’s a leadership lesson. You killed a goat and said it was behaving badly. You’re a farmer — you don’t castrate a goat, they behave badly.

Kash Patel’s latest firings ousted agents with expertise in Iran The FBI director gutted a specialized, global espionage unit of counterintelligence agents, just days before Operation Epic Fury.

Current events confirm the achieved wisdom of time-honored classics in the social sciences.

I was living in DC and it was absolutely in the news there.

KBJ: "The entire point, I thought, of the Bruen test was to say that the only thing the modern legislature gets to do is follow the judgments of the founding era legislature around who was dangerous and who gets to be disarmed. So I think your argument sort of falls apart under the Bruen test..."

Wasn't Caine, a retired 3 star, picked over higher ranking and active generals because he was aligned with Trump?
