Macklemore announcing the pick from the Senators seems about right
Should have brought Tacocat up to announce Yanni Gourde
Going to the Pike Place Market to announce the pick from the NHL's most over-discussed team is very meta
SUE FUCKING BIRD. Having the great one announce Eberle, a superb choice, seems right
@CammiGranato, a name I got tired of saying when I was the PA person for Martlets hockey and Concordia was visiting. “Et avec son qautrieme but du match…”
Payton and Kemp looking good in Kraken colors
A+ content #BeastMode
B-Wagz! “I’m glad it’s an easy name”
😥😥😢😢😩😩😩😩
Seeing Gio wearing the C on a Kraken jersey opening night will be a serious test for my loyalty

Trying to retcon Trump as a whistleblower is amazing stuff even for Glenn
"James Comey was in the tank for Hillary Clinton" ROFL. Glenn really should reconsider the "tweeting about dogs in Portuguese" approach to days when something bad happens for his political side Image
One point to add is that it was incredibly stupid of Comey to think his statement would help clarify why Clinton wasn't indicted (i.e. because nobody ever has been for comparable conduct.) Inevitably, the only message people got was "extremely careless" lawyersgunsmoneyblog.com/2023/06/how-ar…

As Patrick Deneen is making the rounds with a new book generating credulous coverage for claims that "post-liberal" reactionaries are actually more egalitarian than liberals, keep this in mind:
The Biden administration is enacting exactly the kind of pro-labor, pro-domestic manufacturing, pro-environmental industrial policy Deneen and his allies claim to want, and they don't care at all: lawyersgunsmoneyblog.com/2023/06/the-re…
Instead, Deneen's actual friends and allies are all politicians who supported Trump's upper-class tax cuts and Trump's efforts to take healthcare away from tens of millions of people to pay for even more upper-class tax cuts: politico.com/news/magazine/… Image

It’s worth noting that the only reason Trump is the first former president to be indicted is that Gerald Ford unwisely preempted them lawyersgunsmoneyblog.com/2023/06/its-th…
Ford's pardon was very unpopular -- indeed, it probably cost him re-election -- and should not be seen as establishing some kind of American constitutional tradition that former presidents should be above the law.

Great achievements in Alabama neoconfederacy lawyersgunsmoneyblog.com/2023/06/great-…
Plainly, Alabama should never have panicked and brought in Vladimir Myshkin to start the second period
Meanwhile, in dissent Alito offers the “Martin Luther King’s entire career consisted of one speech which consisted of one sentence” school of statutory interpretation Image

They also don’t want you to know that book critics write more about Toni Morrison and Phillip Roth than Robert Ludlum, which is very odd given that the latter sold many more copies
It’s fine not to be interested in watching Succession, just say that rather than pretending to believe that there’s a prefect correlation between aesthetic quality/interest and popularity
Whatever popularism’s merits as a campaign strategy, a hard no in applying it to aesthetics

Sean makes the smartest case for the "NHL playoffs are pretty much a random walk and we just have to accept it" theory, and as always this is worth reading, but I don't fully agree. Ultimately, the Stanley Cup is almost always won by a genuinely top-quality team
And I think if they win Florida (who had the best regular season record in the league last year and added a Hart finalist, albeit at substantial cost) qualifies, just as I think Boston was a very good team having a season where everything broke right rather than historically good
I also definitely think that despite the #8 seed the 11-2 Kings -- who were possession monsters after Sutter took over, made some critical additions, and of course won again with a similar roster two years later -- were genuinely outstanding
