Look at this absolutely embarrassing ballot. Only included TWO former White Sox and not a single current one. Should have his vote taken away.
This post is sarcastic. The image is a screenshot of AL Cy Young ballots singling out a single voter, James Fegan of Sox Machine, whose very reasonable ballot was: 1. Skubal, 2. Crochet, 3. Brown, 4. Fried, 5. Rodon.

This is going to be the worst movie ever made.
According to Puck’s Matthew Belloni, director Antoine Fuqua and writer John Logan were forced to rework the movie after a legal dispute surrounding Jackson’s early ’90s sexual abuse allegations. An existing agreement between the Jackson estate and one of Jackson’s accusers reportedly prohibits filmmakers from depicting the accuser or dramatizing their story. The reworked ending wasn’t a creative decision — it was a legal one. That restriction reportedly rendered a major portion of the film — including Jackson’s King of Pop years and scenes set at Neverland Ranch — unusable. “Additional photography has now wrapped, and the film ends after Jackson’s triumphant rise to fame in the ’80s,” Belloni wrote. “So all the footage of MJ’s later King of Pop (and scandal-plagued) years, including two weeks of shooting at Neverland Ranch, now owned by Ron Burkle, is unusable.” The original cut of Michael reportedly ran close to four hours long. Lionsgate had once considered splitting it into two parts, but given the current situation, that plan may no longer be on the table.

I’m watching my games and Luna is watching her game.
A TV with four football games on. A laptop with a video of birds eating seed, being watched intently by a white cat.

I also can’t wait for the Outcomes, Big Frank.
Frank Thomas instagram post where he’s cheesing at the camera wearing sunglasses and an Auburn windbreaker. Text on photo says “Double duty today! At Auburn football and Game 7 World Series. I can’t wait for the fireworks! War damn!” The caption says “Big Saturday in Sports! Can’t wait for the Outcomes. #FT35Spirits.com”

Same vibes
A black dog and a white cat have a long-distance showdown. The camera is to the dog's back and the dog is on the right side of the frame. The cat is down a long hallway on the left side of the frame. Famous duel from 1963 western film "Gunfight at Red Sands" with a similar perspective to the first photo featuring a dog and a cat.

Tended to @doctor1hundred.bsky.social’s good boys today and they both said “you are not father” but also “we will still accept your pets.”

Immediately had to look at how gameday play-by-play described that, like in the @sammillerbb.bsky.social article a while back

YouTube TV offering the quad box option is really useful for sports, and I also love that they offer it in case I ever felt like watching Friends, Law and Order SVU, Baseball Tonight, and CNN all at the same time.

Never related more with Paul Hollywood
For a main course, I’d have a load of hot dogs, and then for dessert, have a load of doughnuts. That would be my ideal meal.

Seeing where he's at and how far he is from where he catches the ball the second the camera cuts to the wide view makes it even more jarring

Weirdo conservatives: Why do you annoying liberals have to make everything so political?
Also weirdo conservatives:
@JackPosobiec on Twitter commenting on a picture of an angry Karen going psycho on a dad who got a ball for his kid: "Everything you need to know about the collapse of our nation is in this one picture Dominating female liberal, submissive emasculated male, terrified to stand up for his family"
