Doesn’t appear in this year’s @marchxness.bsky.social bracket but here’s Edwin McCain talking about his journey to creating one of my favorite sad 90s tunes, “I’ll Be.”

That line “I’ll be, better when I’m older” sure hits different 30 years later.

Somewhere lovely, Mitch Hedberg is smiling.
MN protestors #protip put 2 Idaho Russets in the oven at 420 degrees for 45 min, take them out and foil wrap, 1 in each pocket before you go out. Theyll stay warm for 3-4 hours even in this weather and you can eat em when you like. They used to send us kids out like this back in the 70s trust me.

Did I just figure out how to apply a tag to a file in DocumentCloud by changing a dropdown value in a Google Spreadsheet? Yes, yes, I did.

Does it scale? I have no idea.

Words matter. We have them to describe circumstances and feelings so others can comprehend and empathize.

Time to roll out stronger words.

If someone considering entering journalism were to ask me for advice, I’d tell them to skip it and focus on building a community around a topic and doing all you can to inform that community in a fair but honest way so that some will help you lay the bills that modern society sends your way.

Seeing this I'm compelled to acknowledge what this season of football has meant to the residents of Chicago and Chicagoland, and how hope and the power of "being there in the end with a chance" has over the psyche.

But any chance it comes in green and gold?
