Consider me subscribed (I was already a subscriber)
For years, advertising has been how Stereogum made money to pay its writers. While we made progress moving away from that model, Google AI search has decimated the business almost overnight. Today we relaunch with a greater focus on subscription. We’d love your support: stereogum.com/2478838/ster...

Stereogum is an invaluable part of the music media ecosystem, and they've adapted brilliantly to an increasingly hostile landscape for decades now. Please consider giving them a little of your money if you don't already. (And if you do, make sure your payment details transferred over; mine didn't.)

The official Bsky account just reskeeted this, even though the clip is making fun of Jacob as being the kind of weiner who uses Bsky
(Bsky was right to repost it, it's their first mainstream shoutout, and it's not like "Abbott" is a show for particularly biting jokes)

The coordinated nature of this—none are facing voters in 2026—means that either Schumer approved it or failed in his job as Senate Majority Leader to stop it.
Dems voting "no" get zero credit until they demand a change in leadership. Schumer out as Leader, Durbin out as Whip.

I'm thoroughly unsurprised that gambling scandals so far have been basketball related, because that's the sport where one guy tanking can do the most damage. I'm even less surprised that the second position implicated is baseball pitchers
JUST IN: Two pitchers with the Cleveland Guardians have been charged with a gambling/ bribery/ money laundering conspiracy.

During the time I was a Virginia reporter I got to see many politicians speak, and I promise you that Tim Kaine was by some distance the least inspiring politician I ever saw, including the local councilmen in my city of 20,000 people.

I can't think of a better deterrent for me personally going into a Target. Don't look at me, don't fucking talk to me
"Store employees are now required to smile if they are within 10 feet of a shopper.
They also must make eye contact with and wave to or greet the customer.
If they’re within four feet, the employee should ask how the customer’s day is going or if they need help."
🙄 Won't stop the boycott, y'all.

Target is now requiring its employees to smile more
As the holiday season fast approaches, Target is urging its employees to add a little more “jolly” to their work routine.
