Is it Fleet Week already? In Columbus?

Leaky pipe at the office? Nah, it's a peaceful water feature. So serene. Guess what I wished for?

Nothing to see here. Just a random peahen roaming a Columbus, Ohio residential neighborhood. Probably not a sign of the end times or anything. (Indian peafowl, Pavo cristatus)

Must-read story on how a private equity group cornered the fire truck market, doubling prices, causing massive delays and leaving departments across the county — including Los Angeles — without the resources needed to combat fires.
Did a Private Equity Fire Truck Roll-Up Worsen the L.A. Fires?
During the LA fires, dozens of fire trucks sat in the boneyard, waiting for repairs the city couldn't afford. Why? A private equity roll-up made replacing and repairing those trucks much pricier.

Wait... is tuna not from the ocean and/or not a fish? No wonder cats are so weird.

The chicken doesn't look happy. She looks worried. Do they update the truck to reflect current bird flu conditions?

I would buy a #Crew96 version of this, preferably without the Haslam-enriching official logo nor any connection to Fanatics. Anybody know a local Columbus purveyor of such things?

A better future is available to us and our Canadian brothers, if we have the courage to make it ours.

Well, the Crew Corner downstairs is coming along nicely. #Crew96

Spoiler Alert: The species of the tree is not revealed in the article. More forestry clickbait from the Columbus Dispatch.

The true meaning of Xmas is surviving until Boxing Day so you can gorge on footie.

Well, this sucks, #Crew96. At least the Messi BS will be at arms length. Similarly sized Charlotte has an MLS club, along with USL1 & USL2 sides. PLUS two women's clubs. Too late for Columbus to diversify, soccer-wise?

Awesome weather at Mussel Beach today.

CREW-spiracy fans are looking less crazy every day.

When MLS denies #Crew96 a goalie call-up but allows it for other teams, and refs claim in-game questionable calls, every call now feels RIGGED. 🤔 #MLS

a bad look for Major League Soccer

Thanks to @empirepoduk.bsky.social , I was able to minimally impress my teenage children with my backstory knowledge of this exhibit at the Center for Puppetry Arts in Atlanta. They still gave an obligatory eye roll, but there was like a _microsecond_ of respect.

At least there's a soccer pub for dad parking while my lovely children spend all my money on vintage clothing in Little Five Points ATL.

Population in Ohio's rural counties cratering? How long before someone seriously suggests implementing the obvious solution: serfdom?

Here's a cool mushroom I found today while walking the dog. Maybe genus Pleurotus, per iNaturalist. Could not figure out species, though. Did not eat.

Leo Campana with the shove in the back of Brad Guzan after the goal and Luis Suárez chips in with a little extra. This thing is cooking now.
