Is it at all surprising that a convicted felon would ignore a judge's order?

It has come to my attention that not nearly enough of you know about Bernd das Brot, the German children's program about a clinically depressed loaf of bread who enjoys studying his wallpaper and eating gruel and whose catchphrases include "my life is hell" and "I would like to leave this show."

If they want to start winning again, they need more fighters like AOC. As far as I’m concerned, she’s the party’s leader.
The Democrats are “not only struggling to fill a leadership vacuum but also stumbling beneath the weight of a tarnished brand, an unhappy base, and a growing reputation for fecklessness,” @elainegodfrey.bsky.social writes:
Democrats Wonder Where Their Leaders Are
Activists want to see their opposition party do some actual opposing.

What sin did that Notre Dame DB commit to deserve being matched one-on-one with Jeremiah Smith?

Michigan holding *this* Ohio State team to 10 points looks more and more like one of the great achievements in recent college football history.

It is obvious to all correct thinkers that the CFB title game should only ever be on Saturdays

For Xmas, my amazing wife snagged tickets for us to see @shutdownfullcast.bsky.social and @splitzoneduo.com. Amazing show. And we are now among the Keepers of the Sun Bowl Story. 10/10. No notes.

I love this show so much.
Our CFB championship preview episode covers all the Ohio State-Notre Dame storylines, trends, and keys to the game, like:

- Fascist soccer team sacks new-dick falconer
- Jerry Jones
- Remembering some Braves who played for the Phillies
- We actually didn't remember that, but now you are

I do a lot of events, and the signing line is my favourite part of the evening. It’s an opportunity to connect with people who’ve read my work. It means a lot. But for Gaiman, the signing line was, what, basically a hunting ground? It’s disgusting.

Writer: It’s called a “time jump” and we do it in narrative to sort of… fast forward over the boring parts and no it’s not a “plot hole” I did it on purpose shut up

That Neil Gaiman "breaking my silence" blog post has the strongest Reynolds Pamphlet energy I have ever encountered. Buddy, you will not be writing your way out of this.

This is just shitty gotcha journalism stuff, but I do always want to know how many of the people earnestly pushing trans sports bans to "protect women's sports" could name the winners of either the most recent WNBA or NWSL titles.

2025 is off to a fast start
For those of you glued to the Hegseth confirmation and may have missed it, Nancy Mace screamed that she was a grown woman and then immediately challenged Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett to physically fight her… so there’s that. Mace continues to be an embarrassment.

AOC: Trans girls are girls. And for all the folks that are so concerned, thank you for your concern for women for the first time. I don't know who has been to gym class, I’ve played co-ed sports all the time
