Be advised that this entire hellsite will become a rancid cesspool of lies and disinformation tonight and through the next several days. It was purchased and restructured for this precise purpose. Expect nothing less than a projectile vomiting of hype, falsehoods and petulant rage. And, of course, keep moving forward and toward the light. We can do this.

@hangthadj It hasn't been easy, and it will likely continue to be an awkward transition (Biraghi going from captain to benched), but a refresh was needed

A 1,000,000th reminder the crucial importance of basic research. Ambros and Ruvkun were looking into understanding nematode genetics and development, not looking for a drug, and ended up opening an entire new area in biology

@Darling_Thief It's not trash talk, just sports trauma

@buckeyedinapoli @BuckiNick7 Is this you poking the bear to get me to rant about this?

[Gemi 🔜 Anime Ohio @Darling_Thief]

Yeah... But do they have a secret plan to fight inflation?

There will never be another quite like Willie Mays 🧡

What’s a movie that’s 5 stars for you? A movie that’s nearly perfect or just straight up perfect?

[Norman R Groves @NormanGroves]

@I_Am_Stan That's incredibly kind of you to say Stan.

I look forward to hopefully catching up next week!

What an atrocious move by @MLS

[Jeff Rueter @jeffrueter]

NEW: On Friday afternoon, #MLS announced that it will have its Next Pro developmental teams participate in the 2024 Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup instead of its first teams.

The league will reassess participation for future iterations next winter. Report: https://t.co/avqm3AJBjI

@LukeShigeo I also think it has made a big difference defensively. Now you have a front 3 in (Matan/Cucho/Rossi) who all track back just as hard as the rest of the team.

Rossi in particular made some incredible recovery runs on defense down the stretch and in the playoffs.

@LukeShigeo @andrew_wiebe Luke speaks the truth on Belle's. One of my favorite places in Columbus.

[Norman R Groves @NormanGroves]

@andrew_wiebe Wiebe, you and Gass were talking about breakfast spots on the pod.

Fox in the Snow is another beloved Columbus spot nearby.

I've seen enough: in a victory for the pro-choice side, Ohio Issue 1, a measure to establish a right to an abortion in the state constitution, passes.

Commentary: Many of the problems we face today in higher education aren’t caused by the “bias” of our faculty, but by the prejudices and hatreds and disinformation swirling around in our society, writes Ohio State professor of history Randolph Roth.
