If you don't like my opinions or my sports teams, move along.
For the foreign policy types among you...
Let's start with the caveat that Russia clearly started the war when it invaded Crimea and there may be long term consequences for Europe if Russia can act as an unchecked aggressor.

NYT STRANDS SPOILER ALERT

As a Jewish American, I appreciate the effort @nytimes.com. But just because a food is a #JewishFood does not mean it's a #HanukkahFood. And how do you make a list of Hannukah Foods without donuts (soufganyot)? *End of Rant*

Prediction time. @nwslsoccer.com Championship. Who you got and why?

Side bet, which team (Spirit or Pride) is first to join bsky.social?

Perhaps the conversation shouldn't be about whether the influence of the "legacy media" (ht @marcelias.bsky.social and @danpfeiffer.bsky.social) is waning, but about why that is happening and what a world without newspapers and broadcast news looks like.

Thank you @jrosenworcel.bsky.social for your service on the FCC. You have always been thoughtful, hardworking, and gracious.

Jessica Rosenworcel's departure from the FCC means that on January 20, the Commission will have 2 Republicans and 2 Democrats with Trump-designee Brendan Carr as the Chair.

Republican Commissioner Simington's term is expired, so Republicans will need to confirm two Commissioners.

You seek up a big monster
For him to fight your wars for you
But when he finds his way to you
The devil's not going
