I should probably actually post something here, so here goes:

- Fuck Trump
- Women belong in sports
- Free Palestine/Congo/Sudan
- LGBTQIA+ rights
- Black lives matter
- Art/reading/food are all political
- Down with generative AI
- Fuck Rob Manfred

LIVE SMOKE REACTION HOLY SMOKE WE GOT A POPE P Pittsburgh Pirates @Pirates Derek Shelton has been relieved of his duties as Pirates Manager. Pirates Bench Coach, Don Kelly, has been named manager. PIRATES RELIEVE MANAGER DEREK SHELTON OF HIS DUTIES Pirates Bench Coach, Don Kelly, Named Manager The Pittsburgh Pirates announced today that Derek Shelton has been relieved of his duties as Pirates Manager. "Derek worked incredibly hard and sacrificed a lot over five-plus years. His family became a big part of the Pirates family, and we will miss that," said Pirates General Manager Ben Cherington. "He's an incredibly smart, curious, and driven baseball leader. I believe he was the right person for the job when he was hired. I also believe that a change is now necessary. I wish Derek and his family all the best in their next chapter." "Derek is a good man who did a lot for the Pirates and Pittsburgh, but it was time for a change," said Pirates Chairman Bob Nutting. "The first quarter of the season has been frustrating and painful for all of us. We have to do better. I know that. Ben knows that. Our coaches know that. Our players know that. "There is a lot of baseball left to be played," added Nutting. "We need to act with a sense of urgency and take the steps necessary to fix this now to get back on track as a team and organization." Pirates Bench Coach, Don Kelly, has been named manager. "I believe strongly Donnie is the right person to manage the teamright now," said Cherington. *He has the skills and experience needed to do this job really well and deeply cares about the Pirates and Pittsburgh. I look forward to working with him even more closely." "Donnie is as respected as any person in our clubhouse and throughout our organization," said Nutting. "He is a Pirate. He bleeds black and gold. No one is more committed, and no one loves this team or city more than Donnie. He is the right person to manage our team and help get us back on track.*

Well the bank robbery episode was the most fun I had with Daredevil all season.

Possibly because the whole “evil fascist does fascist takeover” hit a little too close to home to be a good time, ya know?

But also Mr. Khan is amazing. And the Irish accents, well 😮‍💨

Ya know everyone jokes about Iron Man and Batman having billionaire beef but Marc Spector’s been bringing it to Brucey since ‘89
Marc Spector (Moon Knight) with Midnight and Frenchie. Frenchie says “ahem” in response to Marc saying he works alone. Marc then says, “Sorry, Frenchie. ALMOST alone. I don’t need a boy sidekick. Only an IDIOT would saddle himself with some brat tagging along.”
