People say it isn't polite to discuss religion or politics. I have a Ph.D. in not being polite.
This ICE agent and the man he’s accusing of not being a US citizen have the same damn accent. If this were a movie, this scene would be on the cutting room floor.

This is simultaneously the most demoralizing and the most encouraging thing I have seen today.
@statuscoupnews.bsky.social interviewing this woman in Minneapolis right now who said she came out of her home, wearing whatever she could grab to protect herself from ICE agents. You do what you can, with what you got.

It’s amazing how well the Baylor me play when they aren’t playing the #3 and #7 team in the nation.

I really hate that Baylor’s offense heavily relies on pick and roll screens when none of our players ever seem to set actually picks.

JD Vance on the killing of Renee Good: "The reporting over this has been one of the biggest scandals I've ever seen in media. I've never seen a case so misrepresented and misreported."

There are a lot of reasons to be incredibly concerned by what Trump is doing with Venezuela. This puts logic to those concerns.

Baylor does not have the stars to win with hero ball—we have tried to do so ever since the championship, and have been a miserable failure.

Your Baylor Women’s Basketball team overcame a 19 point deficit to beat a scrappy Oklahoma State team (23-4 to close the game).

77-68

Vandy just committed a penalty I’ve never seen before: an illegal punt due to the punter kicking the ball past the line of scrimmage.

"Chomsky can no longer offer apologies or consolation to the survivors. But that does not relieve us of the responsibility to do so, part of which is acknowledging that someone who had such a huge impact on so many of us made such profoundly disturbing moral choices."
Chomsky, Epstein, and the responsibility of intellectuals
Burning down houses and raping their female inhabitants is the kind of imperialist standard operating procedure that Chomsky spent his life condemning in East Timor, in Iraq, in El Salvador. But when ...

I’m convinced that, had BU been able to beat Georgia Southern in the bowl game, it wouldve been a big plus to the team & fans. Putting aside the “Fire Aranda or bust” fans, this team needs positivity, & wins do that.

Granted, a loss wouldve been devastating. So maybe it was a good idea to skip.

I can see why a Trump propagandist would not want this shown to the American public.

Kind of think UT is getting some revenge for Baylor killing them for over a decade under the old regime.

This is truly heartbreaking.
A new mural has appeared in Ternopil, dedicated to children killed in Russia’s attack.

The artwork, showing a child shielding her toys from a Russian missile, was created by artist Andriy Yermolenko. He described it as “a cry for help to the global community.”

Admittedly, I know I am an optimistic fan. All of the teams I cheer for have had serious dry spells. None of them are currently in any position to be considered a dynasty or even in the upper level of their respective sports.

Speaking of alienating fans, I think our admin has had some unforced errors that caused even further dissatisfaction among fans, and I am inclined to blame Rhodes for most if not all of them.

We interrupt this Bluesky rant to inform you that Baylor has tied Houston, 24-24.

So things are very bad in Bear Nation—no bowl game, little hope for the future, fanbase in various stages of crashing out and quitting and saying all kinds of things that you say out of frustration.
