Song sparrow doing what song sparrows do best.

A song sparrow perched atop of a tall yellow flower against a gray sky. It's singing its little heart out.

I would also like to bring everyone's attention to the fact that the Taco Bell CEO is hot. I'd live mas with that guy

The CEO of Taco Bell, Sean Tresvant. He's a handsome black man with a neat beard and glasses.

Well, *someone's* mask is slipping.

Cliff Schecte... @cliffschecter.bs...
LOL, the Jew-haters always say "It's Israel." It's Zionism. "It's not Jews"
Then the mask slips..every time: "Do YOU & other Jewish ppl know how STUPID & DIABOLICAL you sound"
Yep, no anti-Semitism.
You voted for Jill Stein. And are now upset about attacks on Gaza I tried to stop/you voted for

Adam Gabbatt throwing shaaaade.

Regardless of his broken foot and light wallet, Furnari said he did not really believe the Kirk statue was cursed. “The statue is not cursed. The statue is blessed,” he said, in spite of all available evidence – but he has certainly been left angry.

This is the correct decision, abd I'm glad the AUSL is looking out for players, but damn climate change for taking softball from me.

Bandits Game Update
Due to the current air quality conditions in the Chicago area, and to ensure the safest environment possible for our players, staff, and fans, the July 18 and July 19 matchups between the Chicago Bandits and Utah Talons have been relocated to Hillsboro Ballpark in Hillsboro, Oregon.

All ticket holders will automatically receive a full refund to their original payment method within 5-10 business days.

We know this is disappointing news and sincerely appreciate your understanding as we prioritize the health and safety of everyone involved.

Veleda_k@veleda-k· 26d

This is probably fine.

This is the funniest possible response to Zohran Mamdani rooting for Norway. English person who resents the US for not being sufficiently grateful for being founded is new to me and delightful.

moku @mokushima.bsky.social

england founded the colonies that became the core states of the USA and gifted the popular language that your country now butchers but of course - you have to big up norway

To celebrate the Bandits win and the resulting savaging of my evening, a cocktail at @whiskeygirltavern.bsky.social.

Holy shit, he lost Ryan Grim. I wasn't aware an abuser could do that!

Ryan Grim @ryangrim
Platner's source of strength was the people passionately committed to volunteer for him. On his campaign discord, people are sharing feelings of betrayal heartbreak, and resignation. He has lost his base
t no longer seems like a question of whether he will drop out, but when, and whether his campaign, by virtue of an overwhelming primary win, will be able to influence who replaces him.

Veleda_k@veleda-k· Jul 6

Straight up lies.

Racicot said she was torn over coming forward in part because she agrees with Platner politically.

“One of the reasons I didn’t come forward sooner was, the huge moral conflict that I had between supporting his politics, but not supporting him as a person,” she said. “I just want the truth out there. I just want people to have a whole scope of who he is as a person.”

What kind of high cost of living area is it where Taco Bell costs that much?

A Taco Bell receipt for a cheesy bean and rice burrito, a black bean chalupa supreme, and beans and rice, plus a bunch of additions and substitutions. The total price is $12.86.

i feel like even in woke 1.0 we never really reconciled that the villains in arguably the two most critically acclaimed horror films of al time are men who dress in womens clothing that each film goes to great lengths to say are absolutelv not transvestites

I got to march in the Pride Parade!

I genuinely, unironically believe that Tim Curry as Frank-N-Furter is the hottest any man has ever looked on film.

Tim Curry posed for a black and white photo. He's wearing a leather jacket and has a cigarette in his mouth. He is unbelievably erotic.

Tim Curry as Dr. Frank-N-Furter in a corset, fishnets, and heels, lounging like no man has ever lounged before. A new level of "bisexuals can't sit normally."

This dude would have denied arms shipments to the UK and the USSR during WWII.

A political cartoon by Theodore Seuss Geisel AKA Dr. Seuss. A woman labeled "America First" is reading a book called "Adolf the Wolf" to two children. She's saying, "and the Wolf chewed up the children and spit out their bones... But those were foreign children and it really didn't matter."

Celebrating this most glorious Chicago Sky victory with a champagne cocktail.

We win by 30 points!

Scoreboard says Portland 94, Sky 124. Player of the game is Kamilla Cardoso.

I like to be more central, when I can, but first row! (Of the upper level) #SkyTown

I love my fellow @chicagocta.bsky.social riders. I watched four people get up and leave all this trash behind.

A row of "L" cars with trash on top of and beneath them.

And this is a straight up right wing talking point. Though they tend to phrase it as, "I'm cool with gay people who are normal and don't talk about being gay, unlike those weird gays who make it their personality."

But maybe we can draw a distinction between, let's say organic visibility, where it's like people just living their lives openly in your community, and then the kind of visibility that was really exploited by brands and corporations, which kind of plastered gay people, and then trans people, a little later, for three vears or so, on billboards for Pride and made this big deal about it. That actually wasn't about advancing equality or acceptance or anything like that. It was about capitalizing on a trend of the moment. And I think that's probably the kind of visibility that didn't do anyone any favors,

It was here that I realized everyone engaging with her was just feeding a sad, sick fetish.

First home win of the season! We're not worse than the Sun! Though I tell you, that last bit of the 4th quarter was so high energy and so fun, and then foul calls and timeouts killed the momentum stone dead.

Final score Sun 80, Sky 85. Player of the match is Skylar Diggins

Veleda_k@veleda-k· Jun 6

Nice. #SkyTown

Veleda_k@veleda-k· Jun 5

Not great!

Sun 25, Sky 11. Sky have a 31.3 FG% and a 0 3PT%

Well now, let's not be overly harsh with our consequences for killing someone.

The Nissan’s driver, a 35-year-old woman, was issued a failure to yield to pedestrian citation in the incident, police said.

Ebird list for today. Pretty disappointing, honestly. Highlights: 1. Wood ducks as life birds 2. Goslings 3. Identified a warbling vireo by sound alone. 4. I saw deer! ebird.org/checklist/S3...
