Let’s make the MLB Wild Card round wild, 2 game series, day night double header, total combined score for the win.

Any authors or books I need to read, or is this more of a get off my butt and talk to people?

This is North Chicago, a small town in Lake County. Only reason I care is it’s about 20 minutes away from me and 2 minutes from where I grew up, and my family has a long history with Great Lakes Naval Base.

Could someone let Trump know that he got more votes in Illinois than Pritzker did in their last elections? I feel like it would make him even more insufferable, but it might stop this dumb ass invasion.

This is, quite simply, bullshit. RFK Jr. is a conplete and utter crackpot, and one of the most dangerous this country has ever seen.

I didn’t read the “and” at first and thought that was an incredibly specific location to set a TTRPG, maybe I need to join the Patreon to figure out what it is.

But if I keep buying Shadowdark kickstarters that you contributed to eventually my wife might notice.

I guess they’re releasing a movie with the Tron: Ares soundtrack? Seems like an unnecessary cash grab to me.

I’ve got a funny feeling, with the way yesterday went and WI schools still being in summer, Wrigley might be AmFam South for the 1:20 game, and I do not like it.

I don’t believe you.

Also, MLB wants to make sure they have a game with higher attendance than the Bananas playing in football stadiums.

I’m progressive and under 40 and would love to primary Schneider in IL 10th, but how the hell is that possible for someone who needs to work 40+ hours and also raise a toddler? We need some serious change to get rid of this political class and save the middle class.

And all of the SEC is hot garbage in academics.

It’ll look even better in October

When Americans raised concerns about RFK Jr.'s anti-vaccine views, he said he was "not gonna take away vaccines from anybody."

But now he's taking them away from millions of mommas and babies.

Vaccine recommendations should be based on science, not RFK Jr.'s political agenda.

Taliban Spends Over $168 Million Annually on Families of Suicide Bombers, Spokesman Says The Taliban distributes 12 billion Afghani, or over $168 million, annually to the families of members who carried out suicide attacks against the former government and its Western allies, the group’s ...

It reminds me of something…

If I’m following the weather correctly it seems like Chicago could have storms tonight, or maybe not, but if we do it could be severe storms, or maybe not.

Is this how weather reporting always is, I just don’t remember, or is this actually particularly bad?

Is this what happens when you cut NOAA?

Pete Rose and “Shoeless” Joe Jackson reinstated, this breaking news is sponsored by FanDuels, remember kids, gambling is fine.

Can someone please let me know how Trump thinks tariffs work? Like I get that he thinks trade deficits are evil and tariffs will fix that somehow, but how’s that translate to movies?

Does anyone have an AI that can translate toddler speak yet? My son is in the bath yelling “Cars! Track!” And I don’t think it’s any songs of the Cars soundtrack

I’m excited for the church to pick an ultra conservative pope and to finally break that tiny connection I still have somewhere inside of me with Catholicism.

The emperor has no clothes

I’ve always wondered how in cyberpunk fiction these massive corporations take over so much and control everything and I can see it now.

I really wish I could let Yahoo sports know that I signed up for PGA tour alerts to get alerts about the PGA tour and I really and truly do not give a shit about LIV

If they did a NASCAR race in Pixar Cars style like they did for Toy Story and the NFL my son would watch every second of it.

LLM’s are to AI as “self balancing scooters” are to hoverboards and pretending otherwise will prevent true AI, and, more importantly, real hoverboards.

I would like to again shout into the void and ask someone at #MLB #Cubs to please add times to the printable schedule. #baseball #OpeningDay #IKnowNothingWillComeOfThisButStillITry

I don’t often think about my alma mater, but I’m surprisingly emotional about the GSU Women Jaguars basketball right now! Great game women!!
