Deposed King of the Suburbs
It's the most over it's ever been
Eagles offensive line coach Jeff Stoutland is leaving Philadelphia, he announced.

@zberm.bsky.social was on it.

Josh Harris (in the Epstein Files) is a cheap loser and should sell this team immediately
The talented McCain lands on the reigning NBA champions. For the 76ers, the trade allows them to receive assets, clear space in the glut of guards and give them flexibility to bring Quentin Grimes back in free agency. It also allows them to convert two-way Dominick Barlow.
BREAKING: The Philadelphia 76ers are trading guard Jared McCain to the Oklahoma City Thunder for a 2026 Rockets first-round pick and three second-round picks, sources tell ESPN.

That McCain trade better be a precursor to something spicy. Otherwise that's just a weird fuckin trade

"Please Don't Tell My Father That I Used His 1996 Honda Accord to Destroy The Town of Willow Grove, Pennsylvania In 2002" (Pet Symmetry) It's still hilarious to me that there's a song out there about my stupid little hometown
Deleted a post about “what’s your least favorite song” because the vibes are bad enough already.

Instead: what’s your favorite song that has a long title, say at least 6 words long?

My family on both sides really hasn't been here all that long. That's the wilder part to me. Basically all of them are from Ireland/England/Scotland but they simply didn't bother coming over until the 1900's. (as far as we know)
February 3, 2026 at 12:30 AM
Scotland/England/Ireland all kind of sucked shit in the early 1900's I guess
Genuinely curious: If your family is American, what brought them here?
Mine: religious nuttery & primogeniture

It's important to remember that Punxsy Phil is an all powerful weather god and the process of overthrowing him needs to be handled with care lest he trap us all in a time loop

Phil may be an ageless deity but it's time to kill a god. More winter? I can't afford these gas bills anymore you little rat

If Punxsutawney Phil doesn't give the correct prediction this morning I am going to drain the oceans to find and kill him

The President is a member of a world-historic pedophile ring, anything short of attempting to remove him from office reads as defense or even endorsement of pedophilia

Well yes as we all know AL baseball is impure and pitchers hitting is very funny and good.

I can't do another 2nd overall pick. I can't live through JVR/Pattycakes 3.0. Give me 1 or give me 3, just not 2 again

I did a spin on the old Tankathon just to feel something and I think this is the worst case scenario.

The last thing @dhm.bsky.social sent me this past fall was video of a little league ump getting hit in the groin 3 times. This one’s for you Dan, thanks for always thinking of me.

I pulled these up from the old site and I just hope Dan was able to get his selfie with underdog lady. He really did just love this region and all of its absurdity.

Last thing about Dan

In a world filled with AI slop & homogenized writing, writers like Dan- an original voice with an infectious curiosity- are needed more than ever

A computer could try for a trillion years to explain in a novel what Dan might capture with one picture or post

You can’t fake it

I only had a couple small interactions with Dan, but he once said seeing his kid’s daycare teacher wearing a Ricky Watters jersey over her Muslim garb represented so much of what he loved Philadelphia & he truly meant it.

This is the Philadelphia App and Dan *was* Philadelphia. Nobody else captured the weirdness (solemn to silly) of this region and its culture with such affection and respect. Everyone wear your stupidest Wildwood boardwalk tee in his honor. Be good, buddy.

Scrolling through Twitter, finding the ancient texts, discovered a quintessential Dan tweet.
