Proud to support @francescahongwi.bsky.social for Wisconsin Governor. Medicare for All. Universal childcare. No corporate PAC money. Moratorium on AI data centers. This is the future Wisconsin deserves—a state where every single resident can thrive.
Leaked memo shows Republicans privately see Francesca Hong as "uniquely dangerous" in the general election & that “more moderate and establishment Democratic alternatives would likely produce lower base motivation and depressed turnout": www.kenklippenstein.com/p/will-franc...

BY THE WAY You can and should subscribe to the FBT YouTube channel, where we're planning to do a multi-hour trade deadline show tomorrow from 5-7 (???) to recap everything that comes in as it comes in. Watch us lose our minds!
Fantasy Baseball Todaywww.youtube.comChris Towers is Overreacting To Small Sample SizesUltimately, as a baseball fan and as a baseball writer, I don't want to talk about the CBA. I don't want to think about it. It's boring. But that's what baseball has turned into. My rant-y thoughts on Skubal to the Dodgers here www.youtube.com/watch?v=x8eG...
going TERF is like the fentanyl of prejudices. you can’t just dabble in it and return to normal life, you gotta double, triple, quadruple down until you’re trying to get a hit on a podcast with isabel brown
Aaron RuparSophie Cunningham is getting booed every time she touches the ball here in Minneapolis
Oh, I see what's going on here. The Enes Kanter Diminishing Minutes Special. I should've checked a long time ago.
It's hard to overstate how ISOLATING and scary it was with a child under 5 waiting for that under 5 vaccine. The world was kind of moving on and you not only couldn't, you had to be scared for your child every day
Kevin M. KruseAlso the Republicans were screaming that Fauci helped authorize vaccines for children, which is something every goddamn parent I know was praying for every day for more than a year and have been thankful for ever since. These people are all self-centered idiotic sociopaths, nothing more.
Covid Lockdowns were bad for kids’ learning. I care about education and the health of children everywhere in all other ways and not just this one specific instance by the way.
Just got back from the Brewers front office meeting where they decided not to trade for Tarik Skubal. Amazing turnout. Dozens of McKinsey alums holding hands and chanting “better performance in the postseason isn’t possible.”
Man what is it with journalists and spending a year with their kids that was so hard
Lewis GoodallThere are working class and vulnerable kids who will never have the life they should have had because of school closures. Let’s address that too, shall we?
JD Vance is Hitler and CPS should take his kids
Tom NicholsI think it’s a remarkably stupid thing for a political candidate to say. This is not the first time people have pointed out Vance’s hypocrisy on this issue, but to pull his children into it and say that you somehow know what’s in Vance’s mind about his own kids is over the line.

Well, it’s invoicing day, and since they’re really apparently not going to pay me for something I wrote for them two months ago, I guess today is the day to post about how @vulture.com fucks over its film freelancers. Long (sorry) thread, with receipts:
VultureThere are 118 feature films, plus galas, talks, podcast recordings, and more at this year’s Tribeca Film Festival. Our guide to the movies and events worth lining up for.
AIPAC may have bought our election in Illinois, but we're not going to let that happen in Michigan. 5 days left to make them panic. Vote for Abdul on or before August 4th.
Interestingly two of the sitcoms that night (Mama & the Stu Erwin Show) still have living cast members both of who lives very interesting lives after acting. Robin Morgan became a radical feminist author and Sheila Kuehl was Californias first openly gay state legislator.
