I’m so incredibly tired of the New York Times characterizing the president’s ongoing abuse of power as him “shattering norms”

How did the 2024 version of the White Sox take possession of this year’s team?

One thing I hate about myself is how excited I get every time Apple introduces its latest iPhone 🙁

Crushing hard on this White Sox team

Turned on the White Sox just in time to see a 7-run nightmare unfold

Lost game and series. Could’ve won all three
C’mon White Sox…do something!

A bit of news: The Chicago Tribune has deemed the post of film critic non-essential, and therefore zeroed-out that post. My options were to take a newsroom reassignment to be named later, or a buyout to be taken more or less immediately. So...(1/3)

Every time a reporter or reviewer or similar full-time writer for a major publication is fired or offered a buy-out, I guarantee it's because a bunch of upper-tier corporate drones and their hive king/queen thought, "Well, I never read them, so nobody does."

Just when you thought it was safe to feel a tiny bit good about the White Sox….. #tradedeadline

Every White Sox season from now on should begin after the All-Star game

Every time a fan of a contending team says some variant of “How are we losing to the WHITE SOX,” an angel gets its wings

If Andrew Vaughn uses his new superpowers to beat the Cubs, I’m happy for the dude

White Sox throwing it back to the Grifol Era today #sloppy

As far as I’m concerned, everything through the All-Star game this year was Spring Training #WhiteSox

I can’t wait to tell my grandkids where I was when the 2025 White Sox won four straight games
