Shoutout to the guy who came around the blind turn in my lane on the Scioto Trail, saw me eat shit, and keep pedaling to probably go play volleyball at Woodlands Backyard. The benefit of having massive cankles is you can barely see the swelling in my right ankle.
As we've seen with the Chicago Bears, infrastructure costs can be massive, as much as half the cost of a stadium. If that were the case with the Browns, state and local taxpayers could end up on the hook for as much as $1.875B. fieldofschemes.com/2024/04/30/213…
Apr 29 in University District History: Battle between student radicals and police is joined at university gates at Neil and W 11th. Hundreds of rioters battle police across campus and through the neighborhoods all day and night. Beginning of the May Riots. In 1970.
Hard Times: I didn’t bring an ID to City Hall since I have gotten in as a Known Figure in the past and they’re running it like the Navy. It’s crazy how it’s tighter to get into City Hall than the Statehouse. Two separate sized building but good lord.
In the early days of the largest bribery scheme in state history, FirstEnergy donated $300K to Matt Huffman, whom Ty Pine, an FE lobbyist, called "transactional." I talked with State Senator Jerry Cirino last week about the latest developments in the ongoing saga.
Listen. She is going to be horrible for her district and the state overall. We will be worse for knowing of her existence. But she’s going to be amazing content.

When GOP state Sen. Michael Rulli took the podium to introduce a resolution declaring natural gas as “vital” to Ohio’s economy, his rhetoric matched nearly word-for-word what an oil and gas lobbyist sent him privately as a “sample script.” cleveland.com/open/2024/04/d…
Nothing will fundamentally change until Citizens United is undone.

Just got a text from my friend. He says tonight is Lebrons last game in purple in gold.
Interviewer (what they should have followed up with): The linear extension of the Seinfeld show "Curb Your Enthusiasm" just wrapped its final season in 2024. Among the subjects discussed in this latest season were lawn jockeys. Also didn't you date a teenager?
Jerry Seinfeld says TV comedy is being hurt by "the extreme left and P.C. crap, and people worrying so much about offending other people." “It used to be, you would go home at the end of the day, most people would go, ‘Oh, “Cheers” is on. Oh, “MASH” is on. Oh, “Mary Tyler Moore”…
It’s impossible not because of time limit or “difficulty”. It’s impossible because the questions are intentionally vague/subjective AND the power of grading was given to white people with the explicit goal of failing them. So, even if they got it “right”, it’d still be wrong.
Absolutely losing it over this old Slate article that calls a Louisiana voting literacy test from the 60s "impossible" Spoiler: the issue of its usage aside, the test was not impossible
It's cool that your grandparents did this and you just kinda don't do anything remotely similar or even related but still get to parade their memory in defense of your political attitude on any given day
My grandparents helped hide Jews fleeing southern Italy in railroad tunnels, and then lived in those tunnels for weeks, eating dirt and grass, until American soldiers came through. You bought a kaffiyeh from Amazon and glamped for a week on the middle of Manhattan.
So this is just the lamer, forced version of when that one guy in Philly ate rotisserie chicken on the pier?
Why was I not invited to NYC to witness this amazing feat?

We spoke to Shawn Fain about division: "That's how this class war has been fought over the last 40 years. That's how the billionaire class and the corporate class have taken everything is because they've done a masterful job at dividing the masses, at dividing the working class."
