Friendly reminder to buy your 50% off Criterions from Barnes & Noble and not cede to the Amazon price match. If B&N doesn’t see the benefits of having the sale, there won't be a sale and Bezos won’t offer one out of the goodness of his shriveled maggoty heart.

Trying not to think about it now, but this is probably the last time we're going see some of these guys as Celtics. Tremendous appreciation for what they've done and how they've carried themselves. Last year's team was my favorite I've ever covered, in any season, in any sport.

here's the thing:

donald trump and chuck schumer are peers. same age-ish (4 years difference), from the same city, moved in the same circles.

up until trump decided he was a republican because he hated obama, trump gave the max donation to every single one of schumer's campaigns.

I'm voting NO on the Republican shutdown bill.

NO on handing Donald Trump and Elon Musk a blank check to spend your taxpayer money however they want.

NO on cutting funding that helps families put food on the table and crack down on wealthy tax cheats.

We need to push back.

I’m voting no because Trump and Musk don’t want just a shutdown. They want us to stand down in our fight to protect Medicaid, Medicare, and the social safety net.

Schumer tells me Republicans might try to jam Democrats again in September, but thinks Trump will be less popular then and Republican appropriators might be more willing to stand up to him. He said they refused to do so now.

some helpful reminders:

-not all jews support israel
-criticizing israel is not the same as being antisemitic
-being pro-palestine does not equal being pro-hamas
-arresting someone for being pro-palestine is a violation of the first amendment
-violating someone’s first amendment rights is bad

since we’re all talking about health insurance today, seems like a good time to ask @cignahealthcare.bsky.social, who made $2.1. billion last quarter, why they denied me three separate times for coverage for my non-elective surgery that i’m having tomorrow

"How does a shit-for-brains like Robert F. Kennedy Jr. come to be described as a "vaccine skeptic" in the New York Times, in 2024, when he absolutely is not one, and when there is also no such thing as one?"
Surely the incurable politeness of America's boneless legacy press plays a role in this. "Vaccine denier" simply is not flattering to Kennedy; "vaccine skeptic" makes him seem ... well, like the kind of person that antivaxxers like to think they are: serious, flinty-eyed question-askers, rather than stubborn assholes stamping their feet and refusing to learn what can be fully known because they want some special hidden truth of their own. At any rate, "vaccine skeptic" certainly is nicer and less contentious than calling Kennedy a motivated bullshitter, a peddler of antiscientific garbage, the type of dogshit-brained imbecile who will stiff-arm all that can be learned from centuries of medical research and practice because he preferred what he learned from a 25-second TikTok video made by a spiral-eyed homeschool casualty who'll be hospitalized next month with an illness that hasn't sickened a human being since the Bronze Age. That laundering does him a favor he doesn't remotely deserve, but it is especially egregious now that Kennedy seems very likely to end up holding a powerful position in national government. It's that last bit, as much as his famous name, that wins Kennedy that favor; if this clammy lummox is going to be in charge of something important, then the Times must do its customary job of dressing him for the part.
