In our house, we celebrate every day

Picture of a framed poster hanging on a yellow wall. The frame and the background of the poster are black; at the top, in white letters, it reads, “BATTLE FLAG 20th Maine Regiment Retired After the Battle of Gettysburg, 1863.” At the bottom, it reads, “Maine State Museum Augusta, Maine.” In between is an image of an extremely tattered US flag, with most of the stripes about half as long as they originally were and several stars missing.

As things took a turn, I thought to myself, “well, at least Linda is somewhere enjoying this.” If you were there for the flyover, you might be in my video!

Come on, Scotland!

I went to check and he’s at 3 million, including my sister, who I didn’t even know was watching the game. Incredible

Thank you to @mortymo.bsky.social for proving your point

Timeline synchronicity: @jasonkirk saying “That was one of the swiftest ball don’t lies ever” seconds after @mortymo said “BALL DONT LIE”

Not onsite, but in DC and this has to be why things aren’t happening. Capital Weather Gang said 70mph gusts when this was further west

I’d celebrate both, but there is definitely no comparison! It’s just a matter of whether we’ll drink our house dry first or go to the local beer garden first

We are indeed a nation of Ls, thank you for pointing it out, Nats Park and Taino Cruz

@wellway27.bsky.social Am I right in remembering you’re a Luke Donald fan? I can only hope he spotted the Arsenal shirt I’m wearing 😂

Living inside the Beltway is weird sometimes

In the foreground is a big pile of dirt excavated during construction. In the background, mostly obscured by the dirt, is a black dumpster with, for some reason, a picture of Speaker of the House Mike Johnson on the side. Johnson has a surprised expression and is putting maybe a hot dog in his mouth? I assume it’s photoshopped.

I was going to do a Katie Ledecky-based donation for Charity Bowl After Dark, but this post made me hungry, so I went with Hobee’s glorious coffeecake (and an omelet on the side) instead. Go Card! 🌲 @newap-georgia.bsky.social @hollyanderson.bsky.social @edsbs.bsky.social

Payment form for Charity Bowl 2026 showing a donation of $278.75 in Stanford’s name. The explanation for the donation is “One piece of Hobees blueberry coffeecake every week for a year, plus one Stanford Cardinal omelet”

Remember when Stanford beat USC 5 times in 6 years? Total points scored in those games, plus that 41-point spread, plus the end of USC’s 35-game home winning streak. Plus $50 for 50 straight years with a Stanford natty, shoutout 2026 men’s gymnastics! @newap-georgia.bsky.social

Someone is going to have to sneak into St. Peter’s and add a thorn poking out of the US to Bernini’s sculpture of Truth

I took my college-aged kids to Caps practices starting almost 20 years ago, when Alex Ovechkin was around the ages they are now. Watching him play one more time made me more emotional than I expected. Thanks, Ovi!

@mollyknight.bsky.social Hi Molly! I thought you might enjoy knowing that while the Nats don’t seem to care about their on-field product, they’re selling some great beer.

Not one single person at NASA read Adam Higginbotham’s Challenger book.

Screenshot of an excerpt from an Air Live article that should remind everyone of Apollo 1, Challenger, and Columbia. It reads:

“The Road to 2028: Double Landing Attempt

Under the new roadmap, Artemis IV has been designated as the first crewed landing mission. NASA is banking on a significantly accelerated flight cadence to maintain momentum.

Isaacman revealed a goal of reducing the Space Launch System (SLS) turnaround time from the current three-year gap to just 10 months. If achieved, this could allow for two lunar landing attempts in 2028 (Artemis IV and Artemis V), utilizing both the SpaceX and Blue Origin landers.”

Prince Harry has joined the police to take revenge on his family and I will die on this hill

Photo from the Guardian of British police officers standing in a country road, with a fence and trees visible behind them. One of the officers looks uncannily like Prince Harry. The caption is, “Police officers at the entrance to the Wood Farm on the Sandringham Estate. Photograph is by Chris Radburn/Reuters”

The juxtapositions are incredible! I did the order an object service and got to touch a necklace Judi Dench wore when she played Juliet and to see some Beatrix Potter watercolors up close. The whole experience made me giddy.

Seeing Audra at the Kennedy Center is one of many beautiful, life-affirming experiences my kid and I shared there. Taking this kind of joy away (and also putting people out of work) is so typical of this cruel regime. Fuck this and fuck them.

And yet! The Portland (Maine) Press Herald ran this story about Trump supporters thinking he’s doing great. At least they saved the NYT the trouble of sending a reporter to a Maine diner.
