Kyle Kingsbury is not a journalist. He is not an op-ed writer.

He is a computer safety researcher.

And he has written one of the most compelling, comprehensive accounts of the ongoing hell in Chicago that you could possibly imagine.

In under 1600 words.

Marching bands should play in baseball games. It’s unfair that football gets to hoard them.

This year’s pan de muerto and ofrenda with @annevazquez.bsky.social! I feel like we finally figured out how to make the pan de muerto good.

Also featured is our daughter’s American Girl doll dressed up for Día de Muertos!

This was one of the most fun World Series I’ve had in a long time!

That was some wild out fielding!

Let’s go Blue Jays, but I want them to win it in the 19th inning!

Alejandro Kirk looked really upset after that strikeout. I feel really bad for him.

I do hope this goes to game 7. I really like how much drama there has been this post season. Also, I’m going to need game 7 to go 19 innings.

I’d also like the Blue Jays to win, but it’s gotta be dramatic.

The Google ai ad during the game seems to not understand the difference between causation and correlation.

No, I don’t think that players that hop the chalk line hit better. Because that makes no sense.

lmao david byrne showed the video of the ice agents tripping over themselves while trying to run after a biker on wacker drive during the “life during wartime” segment of his chicago show tonight

I think a coffee shop is more enjoyable when they serve you your drink in a real cup.

Had an amazing bowl of pork broth at Okdongsik in Bayside, Queens. A really lovely lunch on a gloomy day.

Cuomo is “out of sync” with what Queens looks like today. The diversity that he hates is what makes this borough and city great. I look forward to seeing him lose a second time.
So here's Andrew Cuomo reacting to Maria Bartiromo wondering if Mamdani will "change the look of New York" and have Muslim women "completely covered up," telling her that Mamdani "doesn't understand New York culture" because he has "dual citizenship" and "he's a citizen of Uganda."

Damn, Andrés the Giant is a good nickname. #Bluejays

Is Vlad Guerrero my new favorite player? He is filling Prince Fielder sized hole in my heart.
You just got baby faced!

I’m really enjoying the Dodger’s organ player! They played Soda Pop!

I can’t believe they the dodgers and blue jays have to play another baseball game after last night.

If I stay out late and have to teach the next day, I feel like I might die mid lecture.

It’s a very weird list right now.

This is such an embarrassing news cycle. It reeks of desperation.

When my wife first met my family, one of the first things was explaining which Tía’s and Tíos were related and which ones were family friends.
If they wanted to get clicks and ride this wave they could have just done a story about cultures that have are looser about familial titles.

Anyway, this story is a non-story in NYC where most people have relations like this. That's why they buried what the real "issue" is. Because it's not one.

Work up at 2 am, and apparently there is still a baseball game happening.

Been to 13. Houston was the suburbs, but we did go to Johnson Space Center, so I feel like it counts.

Just going to sit here and listen to monster mash 22 times in a row. 🎃

Turned on the game, immediate home run.

You’re welcome Seattle.
