Mr. Rogers, they’re shooting the helpers.

@PrimeVideo what happened to the first two episodes of #WheelOfTime season 1? I went back to rewatch and I can only find episodes 3-8.

You cannot tell the story of Jackie Robinson--the ballplayer, serviceman, or human--without acknowledging our country's history of racial discrimination.

From @AroundtheHorn:

Just heard from my mom that she’s been charged for @MLBTV ever since my dad died (in 2021). She called to get it canceled and they refused to refund her, telling her she has access until 2025. What a horrible way to treat a widow!

[Nicole Franz @FranzOrFoe]

Just wildly insensitive and heartless move by @MLBTV

Can confirm after watching Martha get treated awfully in “Human Nature” and “The Family of Blood.” I wanted to give her an ovation when she started naming all the bones of the hand.

Hey @Scholastic we need to talk…

I need you to be brave.

@jowrotethis It is wild that Con Air is not crushing this poll. John Malkovich dials up and down his performance of Cyrus the Virus with precision as needed, and Cage oozes charisma despite his ridiculous, yet majestic hair and accent. This movie is far and away the most rewatchable of the 4.

This thread is really interesting.

NEW: I’m not sure people fully appreciate how dire the US life expectancy / mortality situation has got.

And some utterly damning charts.

1) at *every* point on the income distribution, Americans live shorter lives than the English.

I tried to take peanut butter through airport security.

TSA: Sorry, no liquids, gels, or aerosols.

Me: I want you to tell me which of those things you think peanut butter is.

When it comes to the NFL’s diversity problem, Eric Bieniemy is just the tip of the iceberg.

When Kraken co-owner Marshawn Lynch shows up to the Kraken game to honor Lenny Wilkens on Black Hockey History Night.

He opens by saying “What’s Kraken?!?” while this place lost its damn mind with every word he said. #SeaKraken

An incredible moment as @HamlinIsland takes the stage at #NFLHonors.

Thanks @MotionCityMusic for spending 369 minutes with me on Spotify, plus that awesome concert this summer in Milwaukee this summer, in 2022. #ItHadToBeYou #SpotifyWrapped https://t.co/qHBcLWssmw

@jowrotethis I cannot tell you how happy this makes me! I’m a long-time follower of your work and love what you and @MalloryRubin, @VanLathan and the rest of the talented crew are doing on the @RingerVerse. #DoctorWho is absolutely among my favorite things.
