The Dodgers saying they will visit the White House next year is so incredibly pathetic. As Molly says, a total stab in the back to the city of Los Angeles. Cowards.
Free for all readers: the Dodgers say they will visit Trump in the White House to celebrate their World Series championship. This is a cowardly decision that is wrong on every level, and a stab in the back to the city of Los Angeles. Essay under video:

No, the Dodgers should absolutely not go to the White House

I’m so sad to hear about James Van Der Beek’s passing. Every death from colon cancer is one too many. If you’re 45 or older, get screened. Your colonoscopy might just save your life.

Trying to stay humble over here but I just played an etude in C-sharp minor and as soon as I finished I farted a C-sharp. Even my ass is in tune. 🤷

Hey @phish.com. I'm literally begging you to do the bare minimum here. There is no possible benefit that his agency provides you that another couldn't that would make it worth staying. You don't even have to take the lead. Just follow people like Abby.

Please. We're watching. #phish
Abby Wambach announces she fired the Wasserman Agency.

“Casey should resign. He should leave, so more people like me don’t have to.”

Wambach joins Chappell Roan, Orville Peck, and Weyes Blood as clients who fired Wasserman over his ties to Epstein this week.

Today is a great day to demand a refund or better yet, smash your Ring camera with a sledgehammer.
People on Reddit are getting Amazon to refund their Ring products because of their partnership with Flock and that creepy Super Bowl ad

I've never had a Ring camera but if I did I would have smashed it with a sledgehammer within two minutes of seeing their Super Bowl ad.

The hardest pass possible from me.

Schumer: ball’s in your court

Republicans: stab the ball, tear it apart, set it on fire, rip up the court and sell the turf to Bahrain

Schumer: hey you guys are out of balls

Republicans: we’re gonna kill your families

Schumer: ok we’ll pass funding for new balls but you’ve GOT to read the rules

Remember when Charlie Kirk got shot and the right was like "THIS IS CIVIL WAR!" and three weeks later he was completely forgotten about? That's going to be most all the rest of these assholes too

note for Canadian readers - the Stanley Cup is the award given annually to the NHL champions
Trump, in the middle of his latest unhinged Truth Social screed, claims that if Canada makes a trade deal with China, "the first thing China will do is terminate ALL Ice Hockey being played in Canada, and permanently eliminate The Stanley Cup."

U.K. might lose a prime minister because a guy who worked for him knew another guy who hung out with Epstein. Meanwhile the U.S. opposition party is telling our President, who was Epstein's best friend, that his secret police should get better training so their public street murders look less messy.

I missed this one. This is absolutely insane. My god.
Here's that Ring #SuperBowl commercial:

Seeing lots of Patriots shade from the fans of division rivals and I would be basking in this if I was you. But as your head hits the pillow tonight you will know deep down that the Patriots are winning another one before your team does so enjoy that. 😘

Congratulations to @zzyzx.bsky.social and all Seahawks fans. Best team in football won it IMO. Enjoy!

Really nervous but not the crippling nerves I usually have on the day of the #Patriots playing in the Super Bowl because there is about 13 minutes left in the first quarter of this championship window.

Still hoping to pull the 11-year-old from school to take him to Boston for a parade this week! 🤞

Related: A lot of jam bands should have stopped listening to #Phish way earlier 🤣
Jon Fishman once said when he found a drummer who he really loved, he would stop listening to them, to avoid too much influence. The gist was "I don't want people to hear me and think I sound like a great imitation of someone else. I want to sound like me, even if people hate it."
Put more concretely, if I could do a better Pauline Kael, I would never have figured out how to do a good me

Currently cranking this to drown out the world and happy to report that it is at least temporarily working.

Once again there are way better options out there than Substack. Which one works for you depends on your goals. But if you don't want to support the company that supports Nazis, there are plenty of options.

VA Dems at the state level are showing us the blueprint. All gas, no brakes. Use the GOP’s own tactics.

ICE has grabbed so many people from their vehicles that there are abandoned cars across Minnesota.

This tow truck driver returns the cars for free as a public service, and he’s been getting death threats.

They hate the helpers.

Which is why must keep helping.
Twin Cities tow truck driver returns abandoned vehicles to families after ICE arrests
Juan Leon sends a "chase" car to check out where abandoned vehicles are located and arranges discreet drop-offs. Since late December, he estimated they have dropped off 250 cars.

Internal White House meetings going on, like, "Hopefully the racism will distract from the pedophilia which will distract from the killings which will distract from the pedophilia again which will distract from the economy which will distract from the pedophilia a third time"
