I'm glad you snuck in an adult Catholic convert joke, and I hope somewhere someone is reading it and incredulously bellowing, "What the hell does he mean by that???"

On the beat? Interesting question. Maybe MLB, if only because there are so many games, it's difficult for beat writers to plumb the depths of their dumbness

@davidjroth.bsky.social watching a lot of NBA Summer League this week: 18-22 year olds playing mostly shitty basketball while "experts" try to figure out what it all means for the future of the league. Coverage of Trump's foreign policy probably shouldn't be dumber than that.

again, the press' failure in this moment is so severe, profound, and widespread that it almost doesn't feel real

If you want to see a French rookie miss a ton of shots in Summer League, but actually look good doing it, I suggest watching Knicks forward Pacôme Dadiet.

alex sarr was 0-15 tonight (0-7 from three) for 0 points and, well, that's not good

@davidjroth.bsky.social do you think Bonebone knows about the Trump assassination attempt?

lmfao

It's because they want to privatize weather. They tried doing it under his last administration but many people didn't really notice beyond the weird hurricane drawing he did. It's also why they cut (or at least tried to it's been a minute since I read that stuff) a bunch of NASA Earth's funding too

I will never forget the interview, shortly after Ozy Media Inc. was formed, where Carlos Watson said he named it after the poem, because "the lesson you take from [Ozymandias] is that you have to dream big." So that's why liberal arts education is important.

This is why I named my tech company The Dead Albatross, because the lesson you take from the Coleridge poem is that killing an albatross is a great idea that will bring you tremendous luck!

Frank had pretty good politics until he was like 70 and fell in love with Reagan. Pity.

Wait...is JB associated with some gross, exploitative autism organization? I can't deal with this kind of revelation so early in the morning!!!

Jack Black is an Autism Speaks supporter and he was hosting mass Covid superspreader events. You shouldn't have ever admired him. Stop stanning celebrities.

It may be Trump's biggest political weakness: he kicks up chaos so consistently that people can even shrug off an assassination attempt.

Trump holding the Bible was among the highlights of his presidency. It was like watching an orangutan hold a graphing calculator

I'm sure if you asked my lifelong Republican dad - a very nonviolent dork of a man - he would have preferred that. Not even in a vindictive way...just a "it's for the best" way

I mentioned this earlier, but I think he's going to keep demanding larger and larger ear bandages. What will the American voter think?

As much as I hate James Dolan, it does always crack me up that even the most conservative Americans turn into full-blown communists when it comes time to redistribute sports revenue to billionaire owners from smaller markets.

FROM WOJ: Dolan: “…Due to revenue pooling, you are guaranteed to be neither a success nor a failure….Of course, to get there, the league must take down the successful franchises and redistribute to the less successful. This new media deal goes a long way to accomplishing that goal.” 💬 @wojespn

Trump's ear bandage is going to get noticeably larger each day of the convention

If there's anything funnier than Trump having to pretend to pray with a tampon stuck in his ear I haven't seen it

Looks like RFK Jr. and David Zaslav had a baby

@davidjroth.bsky.social Pitching a remake of ROAD HOUSE where the pope hires a sexy bouncer with a PhD in philosophy and a black belt in karate to toss adult converts out of St. Peter's.

Vance is, you guessed it, an adult Catholic convert
